I just got finished watching the Florida House of Representatives online passed SB 622.  Yes, I’m that much of a geek.  But it’s official.  Poker will be getting raised limits starting July 1.

One quick edit:  I spoke with a couple of staff members at a credible poker room (eg not Hard Rock or Gulfstream) and they said that the buy-in and the limit for limit games isn’t actually going to be the sky, it’s going to be raised ten times, therefore, the highest limit game would allow a $50 bet, and the max buy-in would be $1000.  Again, this is what I heard and not yet confirmed.  I’d like to get more info from another poker room today if I can before I accept this as truly credible, although my sources were pretty solid.

I’m off to the tables.  Wish me luck.
