If the $2 max bet continues in Florida it will ruin live poker in FL.
Sure they have many packed poker tables at the Hard Rocks currently, but if/when this poker boom slows, people will stop playing so much due to the low stakes/high rake. Locals who the games are built around will only take so much rake as 3x the BB? Totally crazy!
I hope FL does increase the stakes. It will be the only way to save FL poker in the next 5+ years. There is no reason to have a $2 max bet in 2007. That is even less than a gallon of gas. The reason it is $2 is because whovever is in charge of that law has no idea how poker works. Sounds like the whole U.S. online poker situation where the lawmakers don't know about poker.
Lets all hope for a change in the poker laws now. Beofre it is all over.
