Some Random Thoughts[edit]

This article is mostly about the NYC underground poker scene. Should most its content be moved to a NYC-specific page?

I am new to Wikipedia culture, and I struggle what to do about this page now that I've just offered to maintain it. Since the underground NYC club scene is illegal, only those of us who participate (or, in my case, used to participate) in it know what's going on, and there is almost no verifiable third-party sources. Does this mean Wikipedia is the wrong place for it?

Too much focus on legal matters[edit]

I think this article should have less information about punishment in various jurisdictions and more about what is underground poker, where is it played the most, why does it survive among casinos, etc. Right now it reads too much like a penal code. 93.139.40.31 (talk) 17:07, 10 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
