While in Shreveport, Louisiana, Claypool wanted to play poker for money stakes at the Crystal Bar. He persuaded Parker to stand good (pay) for any losses he might have. Before the night was over, Claypool’s losses amounted to $6,000. Afterwards, Claypool gave Parker a promissory note for $10,473.14 to cover the $6,000 in gambling losses and a legitimate previous loan. When the note came due, Claypool refused to pay. Parker sued, and Claypool defended on the grounds that the note was illegal and void, because it originated in a gambling debt. Will Parker recover? (Parker v. Claypool, 78 So. 2d 124)
