I am sure for every dollar given in favor of the bill Oklahoma and Louisiana give twenty to keep it from passing.

(yes we all have a dream, but we live in a very conservative state , and i believe that the leader of the house said in some qoute at some point that he would never let it pass etc) if this is voted down what are the steps to get it put up for another vote in another form ? ok now for the good what ifs: if this does pass what places are going to have the best action/games ? addison would be like a mecca the combination of people having to much money being drunk and being righteous pricks would make this a money making dream to some of the dallas grinders out there. my other belief is that if this passes you will see alot of pool halls drop several of their pool tables and put in poker tables... wizards in richardson would be a great location. The insane amount of fresh donk money from people that have thousands of APL points accredited to their name is going to make me wake up and smile every morning like i just got laid for the first time the night before, and this will happen everyday for likely 6 months to a year till these people catch on that they are not any good! is there going to be a mad dash by investors to buy large bars in hopes of turning them into poker parlors? and my last statement ... everybar and their mother's liquor cabinet is going to try and start a game .. it will take sometime for the ones that just cant hack it and dont know what they are doing to get filtered out, and then we will be left with a dozen great locations.(the only thing that might slow down an explosion is the millionaire requirement) does anyone really give this much hope of passing tomorrow? (yes we all have a dream, but we live in a very conservative state , and i believe that the leader of the house said in some qoute at some point that he would never let it pass etc)

if this is voted down what are the steps to get it put up for another vote in another form ?

ok now for the good what ifs:

if this does pass what places are going to have the best action/games ?
addison would be like a mecca the combination of people having to much money being drunk and being righteous pricks would make this a money making dream to some of the dallas grinders out there.

my other belief is that if this passes you will see alot of pool halls drop several of their pool tables and put in poker tables… wizards in richardson would be a great location.

The insane amount of fresh donk money from people that have thousands of APL points accredited to their name is going to make me wake up and smile every morning like i just got laid for the first time the night before, and this will happen everyday for likely 6 months to a year till these people catch on that they are not any good!

is there going to be a mad dash by investors to buy large bars in hopes of turning them into poker parlors?

and my last statement … everybar and their mother’s liquor cabinet is going to try and start a game .. it will take sometime for the ones that just cant hack it and dont know what they are doing to get filtered out, and then we will be left with a dozen great locations.(the only thing that might slow down an explosion is the millionaire requirement)
