Big Poker Raids Going Down in D-Town!

By: Dan Michalski – November 18, 2006

DALLAS--At least three poker rooms in Dallas got raided this evening. Don't know many details yet ... but for you Dallas players reading us, you won't find any action tomorrow at Jackie's, JB's, nor Ace-High.

Normally I would be covering this sorta thing in detail over at Pokerati ... where we've got a very Texas-centric readership ... and maybe would put up a small post here at PokerBlog to let you know about it. But it just so happens, as Dallas Police moved in on rooms in three separate parts of town, the Dallas-based web-site happens to have gone down.

More details about arrests, tickets, and machine guns TK. If not on Pokerati, then here, on PokerBlog.

Oh, also ... WSOP Media Guy / PokerStars expatriate Nolan Dalla happens to be in town, and I can't get in touch with him, as my email is not working either. If any PBvian happens to talk to him in the very near future, please pass on that I am sorry, but one of those great games I mentioned ... up, probably isn't going to make tomorrow, fyi.

NOTE: Not claiming conspiracy or anything with the police action coinciding with the internet malfunction -- coincidence, I am sure ...

But it makes me glad we've got semi-independent, professional PokerBlog ... where intelligent blog-journos, psychiatrists, cartoonists, dealers et al from any local poker scene are welcome to share the more significant happenings from their home games with the rest of the poker world.

 

I know I just noticed (after six weeks), I can't find a decent home game here in Las Vegas.

Are you going to play with us bloggers when we come down there in December?

Wouldn't miss it for all the chips in china.
