Editorial on California poker parlors and Gardena clubs
The piece notes five card draw is exempt from state gaming laws and local option governs it. About 400 card clubs operate in California, with Gardena hosting 210 since 1936. Clubs, privately owned but city regulated, earn mainly from restaurants and facility rents, charging 75 cents to $4 per half hour, with $1 to $20 betting limits. Gardena collects license fees and taxes totaling over $15 million yearly, aiding a portion of the city budget and property tax relief for residents. The editor argues gambling isn’t wholly bad, citing social benefits and municipal revenue.
