TWIN FALLS, Idaho (AP) - The odds were stacked against retirees at the Twin Falls Senior Center earlier this month when police arrived to break up a long-running poker game after receiving an anonymous tip.

About 20 seniors had played at the center for more than five years but police say nothing in Idaho law permits gambling at any age.

Residents told The Times-News they paid in $20 to play and the pot was split among the top chip holders.

Seventy-3-year-old Ora Deahl says she thought it was legal because the players donated up to $500 to the senior center each month.

Eighty-year-old Doris Williams says they've been playing the legal way without money since the police visit but it isn't as much fun.

I think it was the old lady on the bubble who turned them all in.
Need to spread out the prizes among more players to have fewer complainers.

What is the penalty for this law breaker, life in a nursing home?

Florida has a "Penny Ante Law" in regards to home games.  I read it awhile ago so don't quote me but I believe it is a $20 per hand maximum pot.  You cannot advertise the game at all.  I looked the law up when I was thinking of starting a
Facebook Group to get home games going in my area.  That would be illegal under the "advertising" aspect of the law.
