Ever since the World Series of Poker starting showing up on television sets, poker's popularity has grown to extreme heights.

In Florida, it has been the only game in town for a while now. That is all about to change, with the Seminole Indians being just a few short months away from unveiling their new legalized blackjack tables at their casinos.

Blackjack has long been one of the most popular casino table games. It is fast paced, which keeps people's attention, and it is also an easy game to learn. People from all walks of life enjoy the game.

So what will happen to the current poker games that are running rampant at Seminole casinos currently? The obvious answer will be that less time will be spent at the poker tables and more spent on the blackjack tables. That will almost assuredly happen at least until the splendor of the newly legalized game wears off.

Once everything settles down, there is no telling whether people will take to one game over the other. Most people probably will switch back and forth between the two games.

"I have been playing poker here(Coconut Creek Casino) for several years now, but once blackjack is here, I'll probably be playing much more of that than poker," said Jon Smithers, a patron at the Seminole Coconut Creek Casino in Broward County, Florida.

Smithers is likely echoing the sentiment of many gamblers, but only time will tell just how much of an impact blackjack will have on the game of poker in Florida Seminole casinos.
