FLORIDA ALLOWING POKER GAME STAKES TO BE RAISED IN JULY!

One good offshoot of the change is the Poker Boats are trying to keep their customers, the bigger stakes players who never play at the tracks where there was only low limit tournies with ridiculous rake and no foldem hold'em.

Sun Cruz has cut the rake in the NL and limit games.
And started freerolls.

That's interesting news. Nice to see that there will actually be competition and if enough players complain about time charges they will do away with it and also poor tourney structures. Personally I don't care much about comps if they can have good games/structures for tourneys.

No freerolls at the boat at Treasure Island in St. Pete......yet.

Anybody going to be on this boat tonight for the 1-2 no limit game?

the beau and the ip are both 6 a half hour time charge. the ip is a 300 max buy-in for new games.

All of the bills sent to the governor in the batch containing the "poker stakes" bill #752 with a dealine to be acted upon of June 15, 2007, have been "A" approved by the Governor EXCEPT the poker bill which still remains pending. Like I said, this will pass "W/O" without the signature of the Governor. 2 days to go folks...hold on to your hats............

[NY60]

How fitting...Thursday evening will be the night of "The Last Supper" for all the no fold'em hold'em players....may they rest in peace.......IN HELL!!

So if he's acted on all the bills that were given to him at the same time as our bill, would it be safe to say he will probably not act on it?

The action report on 6/13/2007 at 19:28 has this entry
for 752.

S 0752 W/O GBC 05/31/07 06/15/07

Yes, as of today it 0752 has become law without the signature of the Gov.
