FLORIDA ALLOWING POKER GAME STAKES TO BE RAISED IN JULY!

[dozer]

Anyone else remember the original payout structure to the Dania $5k guaranteed tourneys? First prize was $5000, second through 28th got $50. Nice. They've since changed the structure.

But yeah, the poker structure down here stinks. It would be interesting if a room actually eschewed the high rake and built a "player's tourney" once a week. Could be popular, and it would attract a lot of people to playing at that particular room.

Holy [censored] that's brutal.

Last tourney I entered at the Jax Poker Room was when I didn't bother to check the payouts beforehand. 170-180 people entered, top 5 paid. I think the payouts were like 45-25-15-10-5 or something. Unfortunately there seems to be an endless supply of idiots who happily fork over $45 over and over again playing these things. It's just wishful thinking that they'd actually develop an actual structure that's player-friendly.
