Casinos offer many things that a home game doesnt.
1. drinks, even though its not required, i do tip a dollar which is still cheaper than what i would pay outside.
2. Security, I can play without worrying about scandals and upset players. The casino will take care of that for me.
3. Professional dealer, which is the most important thing. I am not that crazy about entering a KGB or Chesterfield clubs where players deal themselves.
About the incident, i am heavily against people who rake. Casinos have somthing that underground clubs dont and that is a licence. What comes along with the licence is an assurance that players will be secured, their will be no shortage of money, and most importantly, professionals who are well trained in such operation. The last thing i want is for the poker industry to be the WIld West.
