Re: FLORIDA TO GET NORMAL STAKES POKER AND BLACKJACK IN JULY!!!
[ QUOTE ]
FWIW, my friend is a dealer at the Melbourne poker room in Florida. She said they will soon be adding 2/5 limit to their poker room... They're currently only spreading 1/2... [/ QUOTE ] Try to get some solid info from a manager (such as when and why).

Re: FLORIDA TO GET NORMAL STAKES POKER AND BLACKJACK IN JULY!!!
Dealers around here are always saying stuff like that. I think they just like to say that kind of stuff as sport to see how far and fast the rumor will spread.

[/ QUOTE ] As much as I hate to admit that FLafishy is correct, BUT, unfortunately he/she is correct on this point. I was playing in a tournament at the Hoolywood (Mardi Gras) greyhound track the other night and the dealer actually said that he couldn't wait for them to add the "dice games" and that they were actually in the process of building the tables up on the third floor. The guy was a total twit and I stiffed him because he was also giving us such bad service as well.

What this is talking about are those craptastic machines like they now have in the Seminole casinos, a step down from the Class 3 slots that have recently made an appearance. Not sure how you interpreted poker and bj out of this. [/ QUOTE ] i realize what the article said, hence the "super lame". i was just voicing my wishes regarding poker/bj.

People here get all wild and orgasmic everytime someone stars a rumor that the poker landscape in Florida is going to change. I disbunk those rumors and because of that I'm a known pessimist who never says a positive word about anything? OK. Hows this? The nephew of a guy who lives next door to a girl I work with says Donald Trump is going to build a big honking casino on Hollywood Beach and they're going to let him have blackjack and high-stakes poker and anything he wants. I can't wait. Optimistic enough for you? Just piss off.

A bit inappropriate and uncalled for, fishy? So was yours. [/ QUOTE ] I agree!!!! Besides, Flafishy is wholly misinformed. For example, in the previous thread he made a FACTUAL statement that poker is totally regulated by a gaming commission in the State of Florida, that the FL State legislature is totally powerless to regulate poker in FL, AND that it would take a CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT to get higher stakes poker in FL. I am an attorney who has practiced extensively in this area of the law and I just laughed at how stupid these statements were. FL's poker laws can be found in the Florida Statutes dealing with crimes best known as the FL penal code which makes gambling a crime, then it sets forth certain exceptions for poker. To come forth with such powerful yet totally misinformed statements to the contrary only fuels the existing misconceptions making it harder for informed citizens to participate in these debates with their legislators. Please, if you are going to say something factual, CHECK IT OUT first so that you do not cause more harm than good.

Re: FLORIDA TO GET NORMAL STAKES POKER AND BLACKJACK IN JULY!!!
Synopsis of S 0752 in Florida Senate
STATEMENT OF SUBSTANTIAL CHANGES CONTAINED IN COMMITTEE SUBSTITUTE FOR Senate Bill 752 "It changes the hours of operation from between 10:00 A.M. and 2:00 A.M. and allows local government to extend the hours by majority vote. It changes the maximum bet from $2 to $10." Anyone think this has any chance of passing?
