yea ive played in new york, now i find all this out lol, phew...here in massachusetts, its legal to play at a home as long as the house doesnt make any money without playing, and as long as the stakes dont cause a pot bigger then 200$. So as long as you dont play some Hi-limit, and stick to the smaller hands, you should be safe. As for bars, i havnt had any bad luck like you did tiger, nor heard a friend have it happen. If it does, theres always Foxwoods casino 30mins away, they got great tables, full of newbie torrist...aww the sweet sweet satisfaction of taking their money
