Re: Ridiculous rake - Starting a legal poker game
There was a club that ran a similar model down in southside(Webster or League City) a few years back, it ran w/o a problem for a few months.
In that room there was actually quite a few law enforcement players(like most Houston rooms), who all believed the way it was being run was legal under TX law.
A local official got word of the place and they were basically told to shut it down or else.
Its funny in Houston there might be more games running on a nightly basis than Vegas.
The big hurdle there is the bible thumpers and the odd year only meeting legislature.
