lol, do you seriously think because there is no rake that the government wont consider it illegal?

As mentioned previously, many states explicitly allow citizens to play unraked poker in their homes. Also as mentioned previously federal law does not regulate poker in any way.

If a non-profit was able to get up and running offering rake free games to members in states where it's explicitly legal, the fed might still come after you one way or another, but it seems to my untrained eye that you would at least have a very strong case in court.

Obviously you'd have to be prepared for an expensive legal battle.

It would be far from easy and quick to pull this together, but I think it could work. If nothing else it would serve as a wedge to drive our legal points and it would help organize the community in resistance to prohibition.
