Hold'em to finally be legal in Texas?

Only 50 or so years late for Amarillo Slim and Doyle Brunson, a state representative has finally introduced a bill to legalize real-money poker in Texas bars.

The antiquated laws of the state that gave the game its name, and produced some its finest players, are now ever closer to joining the 21st century.

NBC Affiliate WOAI.com is reporting Jose Menendez, a state representative from San Antonio, has introduced a bill to regulate real-money poker in Texas.

Among some of the bill highlights: Four raked tables allowed in establishments that meet requirements, legal charity poker, mandatory dealer training and licensing, criminal penalties for dishonest operators and money raised to be dedicated to state services.

"Charitable poker means more Texans win," said Mike Lavigne, treasurer of the Texas Poker PAC to WOAI. "Texas charities are losing out on millions of dollars due to the antiquated laws governing the game.

"Texas would finally be able to benefit from the rise of Texas Hold'em"

The Texas Poker PAC is a pro-poker lobby group established in 2006 to seek legislation and establish rules and regulations for poker in the state.
