Anyways, this is a very interesting news article. Watch it.

Thoughts?

This happened across the street from my roomates parents house. I read it was a minimum $10k buyin and there were 27 folks...you do the math, thats a lot of money at the table.

Yeah, they said that in the video report too... and then they said there was $45,000 in the room.

Interesting math.

Most of the 27 ran into the woods when the cops showed up didnt they? I assume they didnt leave behind any of their own money in that case.

So, you think they left it in the woods?

Well another poker raid last night just south of atlanta. Fifty or so arrested
including a local judge. The police stated they were tipped from an internet site. Its crackdown time on poker but I guess meth dealers got the week off.

Apparently they were keeping track on paper so that they wouldn't attract the buzzards. But that is still a lot of "money" in the room. It's no Bellagio but still...

If you listen to the report they did say that they found quite a bit of drugs at the location as well and I'm thinking the police involvement/arrests had more to do with the drugs than the poker.
