Considering minimum wage is like $6.50 an hour, i think $3 per hour per person is fair.

I think the casino has quite a few more costs than just the dealer's salary. Floorpeople, security, management, heating & A/C, taxes, electricity, cards, chip runners, cage workers, etc...plus, they also "need" to turn a profit, or else, why would they be there in the first place? To set up a "fair" game for you & me??? I don't think so.

In some markets, the casino lobby pushes through laws that ban playing poker in home games. Since they have secured a monopoly for themselves then they should have to make it fair. Whether they do or not is another issue.

Can you give me one instance of poker home games becoming illegal only after the legalization of casino poker?
