Hello fellow poker players, I have news of the latest bust! I was at a game in Fayetteville last night on Yadkin Road otherwise known as Yadkin poker house and we we’re raided at about 10pm. There about 50 to 60 people there playing a “freeroll Friday tourney” and they shut it down, arrested everyone, and confiscated everything including our money in our pockets which was not even on the table.

I received a citation along with about 40 others and about 4 others went to jail, they also went to the owner’s house and busted in his front door and searched and confiscated all the money there as well. They came in with full dress swat attire, including kevlar helmets, ski masks, automatic weapons, flak jackets, the works. I am so upset about this crap as any of you would be. The law states that a wager can not be placed on a game of chance so why don’t they raid the bingo games as well? B…….S……. huh Well, keep a look out on the news for this bust, thanks,
