Gambling News by House of Odds

As reported by the San Francisco Chronicle: "Voters in Colma on Tuesday
supported unlimited betting at a local casino in poker and Asian games in an
advisory measure intended to sway the state Legislature to allow no-limit
gambling. ".Unlimited betting was allowed from the time the Lucky Chances
Casino opened in 1998 until December of last year, when the city government
and casino management followed a directive from the state attorney general's
office and limited bets to $200.

"Measure R is not binding, but Colma leaders hoped the support of the town's
1,200 or so residents could help persuade the state Legislature to clarify
California laws and ensure that no-limit gambling is allowed. Most of
poker's recent worldwide popularity is because of no-limit hold 'em, a game
now illegal in Colma, but available at many other Bay Area cardrooms."
