Full House Poker - Eugene Oregon

[BobJoeJim]

Hey, I don't know if any of you guys are from the Willamette Valley, but if you are and you've checked out this place, I'd love to hear your comments. I just found out about it myself and was wondering how the games stack up.

Oh, right, the background info [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Full House Poker is an 18+ pokerroom that opened about a month ago in downtown Eugene. I just heard about it yesterday, when I happened to drive by, and so far haven't gone in myself, but I was able to glean a little bit of info from newspaper articles. Since city ordinances prohibit a rake, or basically any form of profiting from gambling, they apparently operate on a "country club" concept, charging membership dues, and only allowing members to play in the live games. The games are unraked, but they take 5% of buy-ins as a fee, plus of course dealer tipping. The exact details of how they got around city ordinances almost led me to post this in the Legislation forum, instead, since I thought it was legally very interesting, but I also want to know if anyone on this forum has played there yet, so it ended up in B&M instead.
