Article: Should California Legalize Internet Poker?

[PurgatoryD]

Haven't tried live rooms around here yet. Just Reno & Vegas.

I've tried Vegas but not Reno. Have you been to Reno recently? Are there a lot of tourney games over there? The last time I was in Reno, they were converting the Comstock and some other places into condominiums. I guess California Indian casinos were a threat to Nevada gaming after all.

I was gonna give T Valley a shot soon. I'll post when I do.

Please do. If nothing else, I'll check it out the next time the wife and I go for the buffet.

Might try Lucky Derby off Greenback, too.

I actually played there once. It was a long time ago before I really knew how to play. A buddy and I went. We couldn't get into a no-limit game so we played limit. Ugh! I spent $100 learning that I have no idea how to play limit hold 'em. Hats off to anyone who has that game figured out. Apparently you actually have to make a hand or something.

If you do go there, be sure to get some Donut King next door.

They have a relatively inexpensive tourney ever Saturday morning or something like that. I was going to compare tourney play there with it over at Thunder Valley. Apparently there are a lot more card rooms than I thought existed in the Sac area. But some are in seedy areas that I wouldn't venture into after dark.

I'm getting to the point where the only State regulation I will support about online poker is a requirement that any online poker site report to the state large withdrawals. For tax purposes.

Having seen what is currently available, I want the already developed software of any of the big 3 back.

Carbon is doing pretty good at subtle changes, but I want my creature comforts.
