Baltimore MD Cardroom Busted

[satelliter]

Don't know where to start. Paying taxes has nothing to do with this. Casinos pay taxes. All cash businesses pay taxes. If they skim they're subject to the same law as anyone else. Don't know about Baltimore, but in Manhattan, New York the clubs do have "friendly social games." Very few people I know have room for a ten person table in their apartment, not to mention 5 tables for a fun tournament. This is where the clubs come in, and like any leisure activity, hope to make a profit.
