All it would take is one raid and many people would go down with the ship. The only clubs that can pay cash is private clubs like the American Legion, the Elks, etc. Thats why their drinks are so cheap because you have to be a member to drink or play there. They have a private club liquor license. If I remember correctly, you are the one who is pregnant...picture this in the paper...pregnant poker dealer arrested at local bar...please be careful, don't let this happen to you. As far as your sister, she's not old enough period. There is no sense in screwing up your life for something that doesn't have to happen. Just something to think about....

Okay playing in this bar is perfectly legal.

What goes on is, bars, in the state of Texas are allowed to play poker/have a poker game for a prize.

Said prize is just cash at this place. And is legal so the only thing that the problem is my sister.

I understand and want to give her the job but the owner wants me to deal also, just in case someone comes in, which makes no sense to me what-so-ever.

And the poker area is a no smoking section.

I've dealt before and wouldn't worry about that part of it.

I'm just not good with conflict is the problem but I think I know what I am going to do now, so thanks guys.

I'll update you guys with my decision tomorrow.
