Bluegrass Poker
Flush
I live in an area supported by horse racing yet frowns on cards. Go figure.
We had a decent underground card circuit a few years back. Unfortunately the guy who ran the one I played in decided he was a bookie as well.
Playing a tournament one night, probably 5 tables. We are about 4th blind level. Probably 40 players left.
When the door flies open and about 20 cops in full riot gear, shields and all, burst in and yell “WE HAVE A WARRANT PUT YOUR HANDS ON THE TABLE AND DON’T MOVE!”
I didn’t realize my sphincter could get so tight.
They check ID of every single player to see if anyone had any outstanding warrants. Not one single player did.
Eventually the finish they search. Arrest all the people involved in running the game and send the rest of us home.
Made for an eventful evening and great story and cost me $200 entry fee since all money was confiscated.
Anyone else ever been playing during a busy?
