Default Re: BM Card rooms in Texas?

I'd still like to know how it's legal?

it's on an indian reservation and doesnt have to comply w/ antt-gambling laws.

all,

i went several years ago because i was in the town for work. there was only one table going. they have a lot of tables just none of them running due to such low turn out.

while i was waiting for a seat i overheard table chatter in spanish and thought, "they better not pull that while im the hand." once i got to the table i realized there was only one other person who was a native english speaker. there were a couple players at the table who didnt speak english. when the floor came over to settle issues it was done in spanish.

living in texas im used to being exposed to spanish speaking population all of the time but it was funny expecting an english only rule to be enforced and realizing that english was the exception in that card room.
