Full House :: Lawrence's 'Poker Pub' deals a winning hand with no-stakes poker
On this chilly Tuesday night, nearly a hundred people have packed into The Meat Market in downtown Lawrence to play No-Limit Texas Hold 'Em, but only 88 made the seating for the first round. The entire lower deck of the bar in engulfed in a sea of green tables and Patriotic-colored poker chips. A cloud of smoke slowly consumes the chattering crowd, which boats equal numbers of college students, twentysomethings and parents. By the end of the night, dozens of people will gather around the final table, cheering on their friends as they race for the prize (which tonight is a DVD player and a copy of the poker movie "Rounders").
