Poker Rooms in New Hampshire
New Hampshire has one of the more robust charitable poker scenes in New England. Several dedicated poker rooms operate under charitable gaming licenses, offering daily cash games and tournaments. The Brook in Seabrook is the largest operation in the state.
Legal Framework
New Hampshire permits charitable poker gaming under RSA 287-D, the Charitable Gaming Act. Licensed operators run poker rooms on behalf of qualified charities. The New Hampshire Lottery Commission oversees licensing. Games are limited to poker and certain other card games; house banking is prohibited, meaning the house takes a rake rather than banking the games.
