It's not really that close to your area, but Soaring Eagle in Michigan is 18 and up and has a very good poker room.

Today at the Tropicana in Atlantic City there were two players who very well might have been under 21. So even if if the law says you must be 21, it's not necessarily enforced. (I'm a civil libertarian; believe me, I'm not saying this law should be enforced, or even exist.)

In British Columbia the minimum age for gambling is 19. I believe that in all other Canadian provinces the gambling age is either 18 or 19 (just like drinking).

One more Tropicana note: today there was a guy playing 2-4 hold 'em who was either a young-looking 18, or maybe 16 or 17. He was quite good, by the way.
