Today, Tuesday April 3, is a big day for poker here in Texas. San Antonio State Rep Jose Menendez has introduced a bill making card rooms legal in the state, and poker players are converging on the capital in Austin to support the legislation.
Here is an article talking about this. It's too bad I'm swamped at work or I'd roadie up there to show support... Since we have legal horse racing and lotteries its not entirely impossible this won't pass (damn religious freaks running the state) but I have my doubts it'll succeed. Man it would be so sweet to have poker finally be legal here.
Oh well, hoping for the best in TX...
