Casinos Coming To Texas?!?!

Texas is too big of a concentration of poker players to have legal poker penned up in 12 locations and at the mercy of -EV gambling establishments. The limitation to 12 venues is the kind of semi-pandering to anti-gambling forces where you beg for a few crumbs. But poker players have to make the case that poker and other forms of skill based gambling are different and should be treated differently.

It's hard enough to get a politician to consider gambling at all. I'm not also going to ask him to differentiate between skill vs. luck types of gambling when all they see are random cards and betting with chips. I'll take the bird in the hand thank you.
