Re: FLORIDA ALLOWING POKER GAME STAKES TO BE RAISED IN JULY!
That's an excellent point Moose, the bill has not been transmitted to the Governor for consideration.
The requirement is that an enrolled bill be "signed by the presiding officers of the respective houses and by the secretary of the senate and the clerk of the house of representatives during the session or as soon as practicable after its adjournment sine die" and then transmitted to the Governor for consideration. There's no real hard and fast rule for transmittal to the governor, so I guess we just wait. There's a special session June 12 - 22, to consider property tax reform ... I hope they get around to it before then.

Re: FLORIDA ALLOWING POKER GAME STAKES TO BE RAISED IN JULY!
Here's the link to the bill information reports - Florida Senate Bill Information Reports. Select the "Governor's Action Report" - it lists, by Bill number, the date received by the Governor and the deadline for his action. For the legislative session that just ended there are a total of 289 Bills that haven't been sent to him yet, he has approved 25 Bills and 23 Bills are pending in his office.
We're concerned with SB 752. Who says government isn't quick and nimble?

How do you know that the bill hasn't been sent to the Governor yet? Is there a website that follows this? And why hasn't the bill been sent to the Governor? [/ QUOTE ] Slow clerks? Backroom negotiations? Who knows?
