Card Clubs

“Card Clubs: A Sure Bet?” (May 6) makes a good point: “Most Los Angeles-area cities with casinos have seen revenues fall off in recent years, leaving sudden, gaping holes in their budgets.”

The argument is made that there is too much competition as more clubs open up. True, but how many more poker players would rush to the clubs if they used a more equitable method of taking their “rake” from the game? I figured it out: It costs the average player $15 an hour--or more--just to sit at the table!
