A great day in Ohio.....to some

On Tuesday Nov. 3rd by a vote of 1,640,526 (for) and 1,451,794 (against) Ohio, after 4 previous tries has finally passed to amend the constitution and allow 4 casinos to be built. 1 each in Cleveland, Cinncinati, Columbus and Toledo. Now I for one am pretty excited by this as I have wanted to be a poker dealer for about 2 years now and this should open the door for me to get the experience I need to move on to Vegas, however if they don't allow workers to play on their off hours then I'm not sure what to do. All my friends will be going to Cleveland to play poker, but if I'm not allowed to play on off hours then the only way for me to play is to head to one of the other casinos or go back out of state to Mountaineer. But mountaineer will probably be like a ghost town once Ohio gets the casinos up and running since practically all that plays there is Ohioans.

Great news!!

Wow that passed by less than 189,000 votes. Guess people want their monies to stay in state which, imo, is always a good thing. Glad to hear it will help with your own personal poker career. Are these to be full fledged casinos or will they have some goofy restrictions?

im glad to see this finally happen. i mean its only a half hour for me to go to indiana, and hit a very nice poker room, but cutting that drive in half would be fine by me.

Full casinos with hopefully a nice big poker room

Thats good news, thanks for sharing it,, hopefully Ma. will pass it to, Someday,,lol ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, buck

All true, but I read it might be 2 years before they're operational and there could delays, lawsuits, etc to push it out further.

This is the best news ever!!

I live in Toledo so now i wont have to go up to Michigan or Canada.......
F%%K yea BABY!!!!

Thats funny, you mention being a dealer, before the last vote failed I told my buddy/business partner I was quiting tile work to be a poker dealer when we get our casino. WOOOHOOO!
