Meskwaki Tribal Council approves poker for under-21 gamblers

Gamblers under 21 may soon be playing poker at the Meskwaki casino near Tama.

The Tribal Council has approved a plan to allow 18- to 21-years-old to play poker games such as Texas Hold ‘em. A date for the change hasn’t been set.

Tribal spokesman Larry Lasley Jr. says the tribe can make the change because players, not the casino, provide the game’s jackpot when they buy into the game.

The tribe’s gaming compact with the state regulates games such as blackjack — the casino provides a dealer and has a stake in the outcome.
