RE: Hive Poker Game

[alapok]

Instead of taking a rake, which makes it an online casino, you could use a staked token for access, like XBOT and maybe escape some legal scrutiny

Also make Hive and HBD rooms

I'd be into this btw

Yeah in many places this would be online gambling so caution would be required unless got good legal advice :o

1744, "public room for music or dancing," from Italian casino, literally "a little house," diminutive of casa "house," from Latin casa "hut, cottage, cabin," which is of uncertain origin. The card game (also cassino) is attested by that name from 1792. Specifically as "building for aristocratic gambling" by 1820, first in an Italian context.

Taking rake does not make it a casino. Access is a good ideas. Being on a blockchain is not of legalese... Some kind of precautionary measures may be put in place.
