Boomtown on the Westbank only has 4/8 Omaha, 4/8 half and half, and somedays a 5/10 limit Omaha high game.

It probably won’t last long. All the other poker rooms have been shut down, I think.

meh, I don't care what you call it, but my days of playing perfectly for 4 hours to make one misstep and then go bust are long over.

Lot of folks are suggesting here that this is indeed a house of cards.

I have been blessed with the ability to win a lot at Texas Hold Em poker and that is a beautiful fact of life.

Some people just get dealt a good hand at life.

While others are siting with nothing and go fish.

There have been a few attempts that I know of in Louisiana. The last one was in BTR on O’Neal, I think.

5th Street Social is to what you are referring no doubt. That was on George O'Neal. They were charged with taking a rake. I am not aware that rakeless, hourly seat fee poker is explicitly legal but let's see what happens here. I plan on playing for sure.

If Lauberges poker room wasn't AIDS, there wouldn't be a reason for these to exist.

You don’t even have to make a misstep. You can be right and still bust.

Are these card houses the modern version of bingo halls?

I think I would get a headache just from looking at those pictures for too long, much less sitting in that room in that lighting for hours at a time

If I still lived Uptown, I'd be going there. That's awesome.
