Re: Poker Club Arrests
I was a member of this club, and was there when the raid occurred. I must say I was angry at first (since I was doing well in the tournament when the raid occurred). But, hell, if they were skimming from membership dues to the tune of $100,000 - then that pisses me off.
The bottom line is that it was a poorly run league to begin with (we went 2 months without any functions, but were still required to pay dues.) They advertised that the winner of our championship (which we were playing at the time) would win a seat in the main event of WSOP. Well, we ended playing for seats to the New Orleans WSOP $1000 event. I played in it anyway, because to me it was still worth it. (They were giving away 5 seats).
I guess my main point is maybe this was a good thing is some ways. Maybe a new and better non-profit club will come about.
