FLORIDA ALLOWING POKER GAME STAKES TO BE RAISED IN JULY!
Good news, bad news, which do you want first?
Good news, stakes are increased by 250%. Bad news, that's now going to be $1 to $5. Hey, I just got the inside info from a world famous fat guy who has inside info from the Hard Rock management. I even said that's it? So please don't bust my balls. I'm just communicating the info I got. |

Re: FLORIDA ALLOWING POKER GAME STAKES TO BE RAISED IN JULY!
Instead of rumors from a fat guy, read the bills, HB 1377 and SB 752. They are in committee this week.
One raises the stakes from $2 to $10, and the other raises it to $5 limit and $100 NL. Both dramatically increase the possbilties for buyin amounts WRT tourneys. Unless the session expires, they will work out the differences in committee. It looks likely to go through -- FL needs the tax dollars. You could also call your reps and encourage them to pass these bills. B.S.ing with a fat guy isn't helping anyone. |

The bills have cleared committee and are on the floors of both chambers. The Senate bill was on the calendar today, and it was amended and "ordered engrossed", which sounds like it got merged with another bill. House bill is on the calendar for tomorrow.

Re: FLORIDA ALLOWING POKER GAME STAKES TO BE RAISED IN JULY!
I spoke with a friend of mine who has worked in the Florida Legislature. He read the links and he says, based on the speed at which these bills moved through committee and the committee votes, these bills will pass by the end of next week.
This, obviously, doesn't mean anything to you all, but I think come July 1, the price of poker will be going up in Florida. |
