I got this from HERE
April 3, 2007, AUSTIN, TX - A historic event took place on Tuesday at the State Capitol in Austin, TX, as a group of professional poker players, poker lobbyists, and even mere poker enthusiasts gathered before the Texas Committee on Licensing and Administrative Procedures to show their support for HB-3186, proposed legislation that, if passed, would both legalize and regulate the game of poker within the state of Texas.

Currently, the game of poker can be legally played, even for money, but it must be done in a private residence and no one can profit off of the game but the players. This means there can be no money taken out of any pots for any reason by anyone other than the players, and makes running a public card room illegal. This bill seeks to change all of that.

Clonie Gowen, professional poker player, was perhaps the most widely-recognized player on-hand to witness before the committee. Erick Lindgren, a professional poker player with almost $5,000,000 in poker tournament wins, was also scheduled to appear but had to cancel at the last minute due to outstanding circumstances.

KRE8R probably has about seventy college funds in his NL5 roll.

I hope they make the legal age 18, and not 21.
