Pennsylvania Poker coming soon

Poker players like me have a little something to smile about these days... Seems the tables games are coming to Pennsylvania. Finally.

The state budget is 100 days past due and the money hungry crooks in Harrisburg need CASH bad.. (psst.. how about taking out that 14 million "walking around money" or.. oh.. I dunno.. How about not repairing highways that are FINE.. How about everyone works for a "little less".. Oh.. forget it. It will NEVER change down there...)

The POINT is.. Poker players here in my home state of Pennsylvania will soon have a place to PLAY SOME CARDS. Gone will be the dreaded "6" hours PLUS of driving to get a day at the felt. (atlantic City)

I will have a casino that offers POKER, 30 min from my door. (someone please PINCH me)

The funny part is.. the ACT they put on down in Harrisburg.. ANYONE with a brain KNEW the tables were coming.. (many said it would take 10 years) Smart people knew however.. that there was no way they built up these HUGE casinos for "just slots".. C'mon..

Get this.. The state wants like 35% of the take.. (table games) WOW! I predict it's going to all end up about 15%-18%. 35% LOL!

If the state wants THAT MUCH.. they better have our state reps dealing the games.. oh.. and PARKING MY CAR. BUMS. LOL. I'll tell you this people.. It's ALL BEEN worked out behind the scenes and all this hub-bub in the papers is nothing but a horse and poney show... (The state says they want 35% - The CASINOS BARK - NO WAY) and POOF! The "make a deal" - ALL are happy!

You know what.. Who cares..

Soon.. We won't be driving 6 plus hours to get our extra pocket money from the countless clueless players that will no doubt be sitting in those nice NEW poker rooms. PLUS.. a BONUS... Our state will get the extra cash (to fix up our older looking towns) - you know spruce things up. NJ will just have to figure it all out.. Sorry NJ.

Last thought... I'm sure we ALL hope they run the games like Atlantic City and Vegas and NOT like Florida.. If they go the rt. of FLORIDA..
I'll keep my action to the BACK ROOM GAMES.
