Suffolk County authorities shut down a slew of underground Texas Hold ‘em poker games Wednesday night, Suffolk County District Attorney Thomas Spota’s office said Thursday.

Nine people were arrested, and authorities seized joker poker machines, gambling tables and more than $10,000 in cash, prosecutors said.

The poker parlors were in Lindenhurst, Wyandanch, Farmingdale, Farmingville, Holbrook, Deer Park and Bohemia.

Spota’s office said it would provide more details at a news conference Thursday.
