Default Re: Ridiculous rake - Starting a legal poker game

All these creative work-arounds reminds me why Prohibiton results in profitable opportunities for those willing to bend and break the law.
While it's possible to play poker legally in Texas, the restrictions in place make hosting a poker game a dangerous and labor intensive operation for anyone who is looking to accept strangers and maintain a large enough base of players to keep games running.
So, anyone who wants to run a legal game either quits from all the free work required or decides to go illegal to cover costs.
