Personally, I won't be going there if I ever get back to regular live poker as I don't like how Kansas has a more direct financial interest in the "ownership" of the casino.
Yeah, I'm still a little confused on how much real power the state has with the daily operations of the casino. I have been looking into the state's gaming law and mostly the phrase "Gaming Commisson" has been replaced with "Lottery" and "casino" is a "Lottery Gaming Facility". But I don't think they are taking significant amounts of advantage over this. Kansas casinos still tax less than Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania to name a few states. Also KS requires a minimum theoretical slot payout of 87% on every machine. This is the highest I have seen nationwide in casinos (Missouri requires 80%).
I also assume the poker room only rakes $4 max? If they didn't, that would be the biggest reason I would avoid playing there.
