Re: Poker finally legalized in Quebec
yah, things have tightened up a fair bit, references are required and things aren't as overt as they were.

Re: Poker finally legalized in Quebec
Bump...
I was talking with one of the pit bosses at Casino du Lac Leamy in Gatineau yesterday. He said they're planning to have 6-8 tables in their room, half electronic and half live dealers. They're looking to have it open sometime in September or October, although he said the electronic tables could be ready by the end of July. |

Re: Poker finally legalized in Quebec
Quebec thinks its different than Canada and should be its own country. Politically, they have actually taken strong steps to make themselves more independent of the Canadian government...... basically they have HUGE insecurities about being canadian =p
I go up there a bit because of my family and most people are nice... but you do get the granny-type that tries to teach you french when you order food (I had this happen twice). Think of Quebec as the some parts of the deep South..... they know they are part of the USA but they just really don't want to be part of it. |

Re: Poker finally legalized in Quebec
ahha was going to start this forum 2 weeks ago, just didn't know how many 2p2ers were from around here.
I was tempted to email the Lac Leamy casino for some free advice on some of the short comings of some poker rooms. But the email address is loto quebec, so whatever. I know that's going to be a black hole. I expect the first 4-6 months to probably be terrible just based on what I suspect they will spread for games. Hopefully they ultimately spread a good variety of games. I've never played on the robo-tables, but that could actually save a lot of trouble that a newborn poker room would have. Certainly the misdeals must be reduced, right ? Only thing I wonder is about dinner buttons and such. Anyone know how that works ? |
