Florida Poker Bil Become Law

[Reel Deal]

Here's a listing of all the card rooms in Florida:

This is the one I was thinking of (just across the Ga-Fl line off I-75 in Jasper, Fl):

Strange thing is that you'd think our local poker room would be advertising the fact that the poker games will change big time starting next week, but they haven't.

OK, I did some further recon today… since I had to speak at a round-table discussion at the law school during the lunch hour and since the local poker room just happened to be on the way back to my office, I felt I was duty-bound to my fellow forum members to stop in and ask some questions (I also happened to play in two of their turbo SnGs and took one down… but I digress). Back to the real reason I stopped in… I found a floor manager and asked him about the changes they were going to make after July 1st. Here’s what he told me:

1. The limit games are going to be spread from $1/2, $2/4 and $5 straight.

2. They are going to have some higher buy-in tournaments (the highest would be $100).

And that was it. So, I asked what about NL cash games. He said they were not going to start those yet because they were unclear what the new law allowed them to run. The floor manager said he thought they would have it figured out by the end of July and thereafter they would have some NL cash games.

So, fung and anyone else that is thinking about coming down here after July 1, I would recommend that you call the poker room you are going to first and ask them specifically what games/limits they are running.
