i am a poker dealer in nyc, recently arrested for the 1st time. its time to stop this . players, dealers and owners need to all step up and fight. none of us feel we are doing anything wrong, and i'll be damned if i have to spend one more night in jail for holding a deck of cards. poker is not a crime, yet the more owners, players and dealers plea out or ignore the situation, the more the police feel they have a right to raid any place they want.
members of the nyc poker community are starting a website soon for the legalization of cardrooms
