Under Age Poker Players Now Legal

Published by webmaster under Blog Posts

In Tama, Iowa, poker players who have yet to hit their twenty first birthday won’t be in violation of the law if they are playing poker at the nearby Meskwaki Casino. A plan has been put forth and approved by the Tribal Council to allow players from as young as 18 to play poker on site.
