Absolute Poker is giving online poker players something extra to be thankful for. The popular online poker site is celebrating the American Thanksgiving this month by giving away $5,000 cash in the first annual Absolute Poker Turkey Bowl (http://www.absolutepoker.com/promotions/turkey-bowl.asp).

The first 2,000 poker players to register for the Absolute Poker Turkey Bowl will secure their spot in the December 1st Texas Hold'em event.

Florida Poker Room Doing Well

The poker room at the Sarasota Kennel Club in Florida has expanded over the last year - since they opened - going from 24 to 32 poker tables, and it may expand yet again. The poker room has been doing well, due in part to the decline in racing popularity, with more people interested in playing Texas Holdem poker than betting on dogs. Racing during the summer has been suspended completely, with the Club subsiding on the custom they get at the poker room alone. A new law favoring Indian casinos with more games, such as blackjack, doesn’t worry the owners of the Club, who know that poker players are a loyal bunch.
