The gambling laws in Texas have led to a murky existence for many poker rooms, state legislation only offering protection if gambling ‘takes place in a private place where no person receives an economic benefit beyond personal winnings’.
Houston PD Chief Art Acevedo explained the authorities approach this week, saying:
'We're not going to tolerate it. We got two of the bigger ones today and this is just the beginning. We need to shut them down. If you want to have these kind of establishments, the legislature needs to authorize it, otherwise we're going to do our job and shut them down.'
