How exactly is poker any relation to an adult book store? Maybe the definition of gambling should be looked up, maybe that would clarify for those who are ignorant? Also, wishing somebody failure isn’t very “grown-up” at all either.

Are you suggesting that a card room brings a healthy family oriented business to our community? What about an adult book store? They are completely legal, and do generate sales tax? It was a bad idea, it’s still a bad idea, and I hope it fails.

From people who have not a clue about what they are speaking about when they use “gambling” as a way to identify poker. As if it shares any resemblence to slot machines or lotto which needs no amount of skill. There isn’t a special way to pull a handle or push a button or “quick pick” numbers.

Plus, has any of these complaints come from anyone visiting any cardrooms?
