Funny how he thinks creating a petition will change things.

If poker comes to NYC a few more events have to happen. First the slots have to open in Aqueduct and Belmont. Then the tracks (whether the NYRA or whoever else gets them) have to start singing the blues how the horsemen and the government can make more money if only casino gambling were legalized. Then there has to be a debate about how people in poker games can or can't behave themselves (more will say can't), a public referendum (or propostion on the ballot) then maybe someone will move.

I expect there to be legalized poker in New York, just give it five to fifteen years, when the government needs a lot more revenue.
