This video was all in good fun. It didn't please everyone. And so be it. However, I have now uploaded a highlights only video of the meeting without me yapping so go watch that if you're one of those people 😂 ruclips.net/video/XW0EMoXM1CE/видео.html

With a crime rate of 43 per one thousand residents, Farmers Branch has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 23. Super funny to me that so many of these people speaking against poker are making it sound like this is such a nice and safe community when in reality...
I think he is just stating since the last woman stated her community was so innocent he was saying she is a lier😅 not credible information after reviewing Googled facts that took 3 seconds @derekbundy4631
As a long time cash game player (S FL) who long ago stopped following poker news I really appreciate your channel’s recent pivot and really only get my poker news, at this point, from a few hybrid poker channels like yours (and Doug’s). I encourage you to continue. That said I encourage you to reconsider the way you minimize the opinions of those that oppose our position. I think it obvious that any opposed town resident, after watching this video, would not be swayed and would likely feel more justified in keeping us out. This is not the way to change minds. Being respectful and letting them see who we are over time is the way. The truth, as we both know, is that unlike general gambling poker brings far more good to a community than bad. We have to acknowledge that there are those (we’ve all seen them) who get lost being poker degens BUT the skills learned in making decisions with imperfect information is so critical (I taught it to all 4 of my children) and the community writ large are certainly net positive additions to most communities. Just my two cents.
Duvall thought he was performing a stand up comedy set in this video. You can be a proponent of poker while not being a douche. Also, trying to say chess is a game of luck and is similar to poker at all is laughable.
I’m a poker player and would selfishly welcome a wider availability of card rooms in Texas, and anywhere for that matter. But you’ve got your head in the sand if you don’t acknowledge that gambling rooms attract a lot of degenerates, crime and drugs. Yes there are many good people as well, but so what, it doesn’t offset the downsides. It’s not uncommon in poker rooms to see pots on select tables in the tens of thousands of dollars. Just some harmless, friendly neighbourhood poker action. Great for the community! Gimme a break.
Imagine blaming poker for someone you know being broke and losing all thier money? If i shot myself in the foot with my Sig sauer, i certainly wouldnt blame the gun.....
nobody who is addicted to gambling would ever say something like "you know mother there is illegal shit and drugs happening." u want to keep on gambling. stop making shit up woman
yo thats Paul Tassone. he used to deal in the charelstown races and slots card room from 2009 to 2013 and then became a pro card player. Good to see you Paul!!!
Associating drugs, illegal activity, and drinking with poker is ridiculous, i thought Texas was a state of freedom? Gambling in general should be allowed, and definitely, poker. If you're that bad at poker maybe you should take a break or give it up, I stand with Doug and hope he gets his room ✊🏼 I've been in the online gaming business since 2001 and would consider investing in a new room, be it Texas or S Fl, it's always been a dream of mine (hmu Doug, my mom is from England too, my dad's name is Doug, we have many, many things in common). This meeting makes Texas look really bad imo, I live in Florida and consider us the top 2 states as far as freedom is concerned. It actually makes me think of Footloose trying to outlaw dancing in the 1980's 🤣🤣🤣 p.s. Linda, your son is a loser.
They were there first, it's not like they moved to Vegas and tried to shut down the strip. The poker community is trying to set up shop in their back yard, if gambling goes against the values and beliefs of the locals then it's best to set up somewhere else, you wouldn't put a liquor store in a Sunni neighborhood, not everyone has the same belief system that's why you have these meetings, to take the pulse of the community. I gamble and I can do it responsibility but we all know some players who are sick and should get help, we refer to them as whales and think they have tens of millions and can afford it but that's not always the case. I think poker is healthy for the majority, especially for the retiree's to socialize and stimulate their mind but I can respect people's opinions too and I know it's not all sunshine and lollypops, if you play enough poker you've seen the dark side. Gambling addiction is real and making it close and convenient for some college kid vs having to drive 2 hours could change their life. I don't think we should laugh at these people. The types of businesses you put in a community shape the community, just like when you put more liquor stores in a community you get more alcoholics. I moved to the gambling capital of the world and I gamble a lot and like being able to but not everyone wants it close to where they're raising a family and I can respect that too
Stupid how gambling is illegal but every store statewide has scratch offs and lotto tickets. Of all gambling those are the #1 worst in every way. Total scam rip-offs. But but but.....
Wow Farmer's Branch has like a U shape and Texas Card House of TCH Live fame is right in the middle of the U but not actually in town limits. So basically everyone in Farmer's Branch lives within five miles of a card room already but they don't get any tax benefit from it. *I bet all those people holding the signs were paid by TCH haha.
Alex I just started watching your videos I came along this video and I would love for the both of you guys to come to Hawaii and help us with getting poker here please 🙏🏽
A poker table in America is America the way TV commercials seldom portray it, but it really is. The house is constantly raking your earnings and immigrants are told to speak English or they can leave.
Parking at the lodge sucks, but that’s not the lodges fault. That whole area just wasn’t designed for a facility like that. The new location was a jump house prior where the old room was in the same complex just around the corner. It’s an old shopping center built at the top of a hill off the highway with a tree in the middle of the lot.
I think Doug is a bit cringe in all this. Just the playing the victim part killed it, the fact poker players are low lives is irrelevant to if there should be a card room available 😂
While I believe their decision to pass on having a cardroom in their town is a mistake. I also respect the people who live there for coming together and making that choice. I am also sure that Doug and Co didn't put all their hopes on one location either. I hope that they consider trying for New Braunfels.
- the audience speaking against poker is completely based and their words cannot be taken to make a case because they have no objective experience at all towards poker - all the “prosecuting” people are all basing their argument on the moral dilemma and that because they are Christians… of course they will be against it - however, the point that residents of Farmers Branch do not want any affiliation with poker or any kind of card gaming is valid; majority of people should have ultimate choice on whether they want to make their hometowns be associated with any sort of industry whatsoever; though I just wish that these people vote against Poker because they actually known the culture behind and not just some diabolical thing that they are making it out to be
Exactly. I'd rather them make a more informed decision as to not embrace a poker room instead of some hair brained knee jerk reaction to "morally this is bad. What would Jesus do!!!?" Kind of response. Because if you want to build a real case against cardrooms you can. There is a reason they're always in shady areas or Indian reservations far far from big cities. I gotta drive 40 minutes to my closest card room here in Los Angeles. And they're always in bad areas.
@@TheFailedmessiahbecause gambling is sketchy and whenever money is involved bad shit can happen. People get robbed in casino parking lots all the time. These people live in a slower community and they don’t want all the racket that a card house will bring. It’s completely valid. Not sure why poker players are acting like children here. Doug can find another place to open a casino. These people clearly don’t want it, and they have every right.
If you buy lottery tickets you gamble. If you invest in the stock market or a 401k you gamble. If you buy insurance you gamble. Many of the institutions we do business with on a daily, monthly, or annual basis is a gamble. The only difference with poker is that you are betting on yourself. YOU are the asset that you are investing in to hopefully yield a profit.
@@AlexDuvall do the anti-gambling residents made an uproar about scratcher tickets, and blame lottery retailers for people losing all their money on lottery tickets?
@@MarathonPokerNomad it’s just hypocritical for these people to say such negative things about poker and gambling when they live in a society where gambling is already allowed
At home games you see those things.(drugs and illigal activity) hard to do anything illigal around 1000 cameras with gaurdds.. By hosting a safe environment for us is a must by the state!!!
I like the review of this meeting but it came off a bit immature and a tad distasteful. These people may be ignorant of poker but they are entitled to their opinion. Some humor is fine but this just came off as childish. Also the hit piece on rampage was also pretty cringe. And I usually love your content.
Bro I tune in to hear of dwan not paying debts, of mike postle, of jack4….and i can process this… Well I can’t blame Linda for thinking these are not a good things…

@@AlexDuvall Fair enough. I think if Doug emphasized that it's a competitive card game and that this isn't the 'Wild Bill Hickock Days' and everything is corporate and above-board about poker nowadays he would've won. Poker is also a social event that brings in out-of-towners with money. He just has to emphasize these points and it should work.
I don’t think there is any way to make poker sound more innocent than what this audience think it is. With this town’s background and moral/religious upbringing, there is nothing you can make them think that putting money behind cards is totally harmless and does not lead to “corruption” of someone’s well being.
Obviously in favor of these being everywhere that they can be supported…that said, your use of a mocking accent is pretty absurd and disrespectful. Accents and inflection are not representative of someone’s character, motivations or intelligence. Usually enjoy your content, but was pretty disappointed in that.

Certainly, mighty proud I say, I'm always mighty proud to say it
I consider that the hours I spend with a cue in my hand are golden
Help you cultivate horse sense and a cool head and a keen eye
Did you ever take and try to find and iron-clad leave for yourself
From a three-rail billiard shot?
But just as I say it takes judgement, brains and maturity to score
In a balkline game, I say that any boob
Can take and shove a ball in a pocket
And I call that sloth the first big step on the road to the depths of deg-ra-day
I say, first, medicinal wine from a teaspoon, then beer from a bottle
And the next thing you know your son is playing for money in a pinch-back suit
And listenin' to some big outta town jasper, hearin' him tell about horse race gamblin'
Not a wholesome trottin' race, no, but a race where they set down right on the horse
Like to see some stuck-up jockey boy, settin' on Dan Patch? Make your blood boil
Well I should say
Now friends, let me tell you what I mean
You got 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 pockets in a table
Pockets that mark the difference between a gentleman and a bum
With a capital "B" and that rhymes with "P" and that stands for pool
And all week long your River City youth'll be fritterin' away
I say, your young men will be fritterin'
Fritterin' away their noontime, suppertime, choretime too
Get the ball in the pocket, never mind gettin' dandelions pulled
Or the screen door patched or the beef steak pounded
Never mind pumpin' any water, 'til your parents are caught with the cistern empty
On a Saturday night and that's trouble
Yes, you got lots and lots of trouble, I'm thinkin' of the kids in the knickerbockers
Shirt-tail young ones, peekin' in the pool hall window after school
You got trouble, folks, right here in River City, trouble with a capital "T"
And that rhymes with "P" and that stands for pool
Now I know all you folks are the right kind of parents
I'm gonna be perfectly frank
Would you like to know what kinda conversation goes on while they're loafing around that hall?
They be tryin' out Bevo, tryin' out cubebs
Tryin' out Tailor Mades like cigarette fiends
And braggin' all about how they're gonna cover up a tell-tale breath with Sen-Sen
One fine night, they leave the pool hall
Heading for the dance at the Arm'ry
Libertine men and scarlet women, and ragtime, shameless music
That'll grab your son, your daughter with the arms of a jungle, animal instinct
Mass-staria
Friends, the idle brain is the devil's playground
Trouble (oh, we got trouble)
Right here in River City (right here in River City)
With a capital "T" and that rhymes with "P" and that stands for pool (that stands for pool)
We've surely got trouble (we've surely got trouble)
Right here in River City (right here)
Gotta figure out a way to keep the young ones moral after school
(Our children's children gonna have trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble)
Mothers of River City, heed that warning before it's too late
Watch for the tell-tale signs of corruption
The minute your son leaves the house
Does he re-buckle his knickerbockers below the knee?
Is there a nicotine stain on his index finger?
A dime novel hidden in the corn crib?
Is he starting to memorise jokes from Cap'n Billy's Whiz Bang?
Are certain words creeping into his conversation
Words like, like "swell"? (Trouble, trouble, trouble)
And so's your old man? (Trouble, trouble, trouble)
Well if so, my friends, you got trouble (oh we got trouble)
Right here in River City (right here in River City)
With a capital "T" and that rhymes with "P" and that stands for pool (that stands for pool)
We've surely got trouble (we've surely got trouble)
Right here in River City (right here)
Remember the Maine, Plymouth Rock and the Golden Rule
(Our children's children gonna have trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble)
Oh, we got trouble, we're in terrible, terrible trouble
That game with the fifteen numbered balls is a devil's tool (devil's tool)
Oh, yes we got trouble, trouble, trouble
(Oh yes we got trouble here, we got big, big trouble)
With a "T" (with a capital "T")
Gotta rhyme it with "P" (gotta rhyme with "P")
And that stands for pool (that stands for pool)
what is this
@@carterwilliams9708 it’s trouble! In river city!
@@carterwilliams9708I stopped reading at a pool table
LMAO WTF, everyone against the card room must open limp from UTG
you think a poker room in MD is viable?
There’s already several!
@@AlexDuvall ???Where and what're they called? I'm in the area
@@viveksuravenkata mgm national harbor is the best
Maybe try quit pausing so much. Bet viewer retention would go up
Mayor, in all seriousness, we do not have enough adderall in reserve to open another poker room
Respectable and upright businesses like liquor stores and smoke shops but oh no not card rooms
My poker games have more coffees than alcohol. Maybe I should transfer….to Texas.
I PLAY WITH DORA WEEKLY.. GOOD PEOPLE
GO DORA 🇺🇸
Im a right wing conservative German and I fcking love poker ❤
"Im a right wing conservative German"- LOL, pretty sure I wouldnt want to admit that mein fuhrer
@@milominderbinder8655 Just waited for a clown like you.
PPLM .. Poker Players Lives matter 😂🫡
Doug attacks poker players all the time actually
Shit def goes down in casinos bro but there only doing business in there ya know
He is not a good public speaker
There is nothing more evil then a bad beat tho, bann bad beats!
Sorry bro but this video is whack.
Why would he start a card club in a town called Farmer's Branch? Sounds like some small town.
I think it’s on the outskirts and more so considered Dallas
@@AlexDuvall Fair enough. I think if Doug emphasized that it's a competitive card game and that this isn't the 'Wild Bill Hickock Days' and everything is corporate and above-board about poker nowadays he would've won. Poker is also a social event that brings in out-of-towners with money. He just has to emphasize these points and it should work.
I don’t think there is any way to make poker sound more innocent than what this audience think it is. With this town’s background and moral/religious upbringing, there is nothing you can make them think that putting money behind cards is totally harmless and does not lead to “corruption” of someone’s well being.
@@KevinClarkson93I love poker though, but it’s a tough sell to the Bible Belt masses.
Mr Deck Pok
Obviously in favor of these being everywhere that they can be supported…that said, your use of a mocking accent is pretty absurd and disrespectful. Accents and inflection are not representative of someone’s character, motivations or intelligence.
Usually enjoy your content, but was pretty disappointed in that.
how dare you take advantage of rampage the other day with your video lol
😬
