Florida Senate OK's Seminole gambling deal
A gambling agreement between the state and the Seminole Tribe passed
the Senate and heads to the House for a vote next week.
BY MARY ELLEN KLAS
Herald/Times Tallahassee Bureau
TALLAHASSEE -- With a swift 29-9 vote and little debate, the Senate
Thursday approved gambling legislation that ratifies an agreement
between Florida and the Seminole Tribe, sending the bill to the House
for a vote next week.
The bill is expected to become law in time for the state to bank $435
million for its budget.
Gov. Charlie Crist and the tribe signed the agreement a week ago,
after nearly three years of negotiations, two failed previous attempts
at a gambling compact and a month of back room negotiations.
The measure gives the tribe slot machines at seven casinos on its
reservations, and blackjack and two other card games in Broward, Tampa
and Immokalee. The agreement prohibits roulette and craps at the
tribe's casinos.
In exchange, the tribe agrees to guarantee the state at least $1
billion in revenues over the next five years and share its revenues
from slot machines for 20 years. The legislation will also reduce the
tax rate on the casinos at horse and dog tracks and jai ali frontons
in Miami-Dade and Broward counties in an effort to make it easier for
them to compete with the growing Seminole gambling presence.
``This is a good bill. We've had gaming in this state for 85 years,''
said Sen. Dennis Jones, a Seminole Republican, who led the Senate
negotiations with the tribe. He called the tribe ``good partners who
are willing to pay the state $1 billon.''
The tribe has sought a gambling agreement with Florida for more than
20 years, and Jones said this ``basically puts this issue to rest.''
Sen. Ronda Storms, R-Tampa, disagreed. She warned that the bill will
destroy families, increase crime and lead more Floridians to gambling
addiction. She unsuccessfully attempted to amend the bill to require
that 1 percent of the state revenues go into treatment for compulsive
gamblers.
Jones said the measure wasn't needed since the Seminoles and other
gambling entities already contribute $3 million a year for compulsive
and addicted gamblers. The Senate rejected the idea on a voice vote.
``This is a sad day in the state of Florida when the Florida
Legislature won't even fund treatment,'' Storms said.
The bill also gives local governments in Broward County that are
affected by the tribe's casinos 3 percent of the revenue sharing,
starting July 1.
The House is expected to take up the bill on Monday and send it to the
governor for his signature.

LOL. When my first kid got delivered, the doctor was sewing up the
episiotomy (sp) and as he put the last stitch in, he looked at me and said
"this one's for you".

I heard on July 1st they are going to remove the cap on how much you can
buy
into their no limit holdem games. That's at Ocala and presumably the rest
of the
state as well.

kinda hard to do when it appears that she hasnt posted here in like 2
years .i always got along with her , and i was basically just goofin
around when she got so mad at me . maybe she is here under another name ,
and that is ok with me .
but if it meant taking back anything i said about her or dave .. i wouldnt
do it
every word i said was 100% true .. and i copped to doing some of the same
things and that also is 100% true
but I am curious if the moron manager that opened Ocala is still there
.man he was a "beauty".. he was like "The Swede" (Jan Bowman"s DC at
Foxwoods) without the "charm "

The Swede was bald and worked at the Dunes poker room and later tried to
manage a room at the O'Sheas right?

empty cup.

yep .. i called jan several times before they opened at Foxwoods and he
explained how insane the management was and how little they knew about
poker . I told him .. "Jan , you are going to be the only poker manager
in history to open a room and be in big trouble if it is sucessful. they
used to have a vault in the center of the table for fills and they were
done in a "pit" format .
total fiasco when they opened .. he didnt last long .. not his fault
