New Gaming Bill for No-Limit Poker Passes in Florida
Posted by Brian Garvin at Jun 4th, 2009 in Gambling
Recently new venues have been granted the rights to have No-limit poker games legally. This is due to a new bill that has been passed by the Florida State Legislature called the sb-788 No-Limit poker gaming bill. One of the biggest places to gamble in the state is race tracks, which have now been authorized to hold No-Limit poker games. Previously the limit bets per round were set at $5, the maximum buy-ins for poker games $100, and poker tournaments set to $1,000.
Furthermore, the Florida SB 788 No-Limit Poker Gaming Bill allows card rooms to remain open eighteen hours day from Monday through Friday, and twenty-four hours a day during weekends. It also raises the legal gambling age in Seminole Nation casinos from eighteen to twenty-one, bringing it into line with the legal gambling age throughout the rest of the state. Finally, another card room in Miami-Dade County has been authorized at Hialeah Park.
