Poker Lawmaking on the Air

Tune in to Hour of Hansen on ESPN radio (103.3 FM) here. He’s talking poker right now. Rep. Menendez is currently speaking with Dale Hansen from Austin on how far we’ve come and the obstacles we still face.

as far as what time … i am guessing like others have said before… it will be late in the day if at all. it is second to last on the calendar.

I’m still holding out hope … if Bill Frist can undo online poker in the middle of the night, then maybe the collective Texas House can do something similar at about 2 am?

it would be nice dan…. it would be nice.
after re-reading the bill i see that the 4 table max is still in ? I thought it was changed? or am i reading it wrong or an old version?

you know, i’ve thought a lot about the Alamo, and resisted referencing it, because you know … we actually lost the Alamo. but i guess if there is a history lesson in that, it was how that loss set up a bigger win at the battle of San Jacinto. so maybe something similar is in play here.
p.s. not sure about the four tables thing. i do know i would take four tables right now.

Time to give up hope, Daniel. It’s 6:00 p.m. and they are on the 4th bill on p.1. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG way to go to get to p.4.
