I found a local poker club, fortunately. $40 buy in tournament, no rebuys, every week, with the same 30 or so people that show up. Way more fun than playing at the casino with sad addicts and sad poker pros grinding $40k annual salaries.
- ryandrake 2y agoYea, I mean I do this too, including hosting my own home games. Our local club even hires dealers to help keep the games moving. My fear is that there's no great way to outlaw predatory casinos that pick the pockets of the poor, that still allows responsible home games and private clubs. A lot of US states try/tried various ways, with rules about who can take a rake and so on, but it's difficult to make them ironclad and casinos are highly motivated to find loopholes and operate a millimeter from the edge of the law. And if you get too strict, suddenly you've criminalized grandma's $0.25 bingo game with the ladies.
