2bthebest 2 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Posted 11/4/2005 6:33 PM Police pounce on poker game in large raid in BaltimoreBALTIMORE (AP) — Police broke up a poker game at a private club, arrested 95 people and seized $25,000 in what they called the city's biggest gambling raid since Prohibition. The nighttime raid at the Owl's Nest also netted 16,020 poker chips, 141 decks of cards, and liquor, wine and beer that police said were being sold without a license. Police charged 80 players, nine dealers and four managers with gambling and two waitresses with selling liquor without a license at the club, set up in a warehouse. Baltimore has not had a comparable raid since the vice squad hit a gambling spot in 1932 and arrested 72 people, police spokesman Donny Moses said. Wednesday's Texas Hold-em game had been publicized through an e-mail ad that promised a $12,000 purse and a trip to the Foxwoods casino in Connecticut, The (Baltimore) Sun reported. Those arrested could get up to a year in jail or a $1,200 fine. Link to post Share on other sites

dercampb 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I believe that you can't get arrested if you're just playing in this game. The whole A-rod thing that's been blown out of proportion mentioned that he could not get in any legal trouble for going to these underground poker games, just the people that ran it. I may be wrong, please correct me if I am. Link to post Share on other sites
