Against you is the fact that you have no information about your opponents’ playing …

The Issue of the Legality of Poker

Under what conditions can a game of poker be considered legal? A cardroom without a licence is of course illegal. However, cosider the situation in which the operator of the cardroom does not rent out seats or rake the pot. Law and enforcement agencies are waking up to take action against bar owners who set up tables like this. The Louisiana Office and Alcohol and Tobacco Control is moving an order to close the no-limit Texas Hold’em Tournaments which are a common feature in barrooms throughout the state.
