As Dania Casino and Jai-alai is quietly putting together its lineup for the ‘23-’24 Tournament, we do know that the owners were quite happy with results of the past two-month “season”. Coming very close to breaking even, the new format gave jai-alai fans a whole new group of players to watch and wager on – […]
With the demise of Club Jai, our focus turned to poker. Texas Hold’em was capturing the attention of the nation’s card players. The “World Series of Poker” from Las Vegas was featured on ESPN.
