If the house (hotel/bar) is not collecting any of the winnings through the buy-in there would be no need to obtain a license. It is just a group of people playing cards. The only way the house if profiting is through the sale of food and drinks in this case, which they would have been able to make regardless of a simple game of cards. No harm, no foul.

I will see you in a few weeks.

There is no law being broken, there is no house buy-in, so WisconsinWoody is correct.

And so you know, the Kingfish Squad ended about a year and a half ago...

It's upstairs and there is a buy-in, however I do not recall the price. The group I played with was nice enough to give me some of their money and was all locals I believe.

Good times.....

The buy in price quoted was 30 dolllars.
