Tournaments ruled illegal in Florida - news report

[Slacker13]

This is a damn shame. Another step backwards. I assume the Indian based casinos are running under different rules because they are def still holding tourneys. I played lastnight. I did notice that it was busier than usuall, most likely they pulled players from the Jai Alai and dog/horse tracks.

That led the parimutuel division to strike the offending passages, which eliminated several of the limits that kept the stakes on poker tournaments relatively low.

After that, however, South Florida parimutuels began offering poker tournaments with no limits on wagering, in violation of state law, Roberts said.

What does this mean? Any idea what the limits are? The Hard Rock is spreading up $2000 S&G's and I have never heard of the parimutuels running anything remotely that high.
