NOW IS the time to seek declaratory relief for "poker", huh, PPA ?

[JPFisher55]

Ok Skall, I reside in St. Louis. I looked up Harris v. Missouri Gaming Commission. It is about what games boat-in-the-mote casinos could offer during the brief time that they violated the MO constitution. FWIW, the lawyers for the casinos really blew it on that one and the gaming commission granted licenses that they should not have granted. Fortunately for the casinos, the voters quickly approved an amendment to the MO constitution permitting casinos within 1000 feet of river. However, a lawyer with whom I attended high school was indicted in federal court, pled guilty and disbarred essentially for assisting the casinos in bribing certain members of the gaming commission.
Anyway the case clearly holds that poker is a game of skill and thus not a lottery that the MO constitution makes illegal.
So I guess I could be a named plaintiff. I am a customer of Epassporte. If the final regs give prevent me from using Epassporte, I am ready to serve as a named plaintiff. I assume that the Action for Declaratory Judgment would be premature until the final regs are published. This might not occur until 2009, according to Ms. Schluman of CardPlayer.
