Excellent stuff. Good news-story out of Marion. We have a three part series on the Texas Hold ’em phenomenon set to start Sunday. Charaties use the game to raise money legally around here.
Friday night I was discussing the promotion of the series with the reporter when he tells me that the organizer of one of the two biggest games we have ever had in Marion County ( a $100,000 purse) was arrested for running an illegal game.
He wanted to hold the story until after his series ran!
“AAAAAH! THAT”S OUR PROMO!!!”
no wonder they sent me here.
Speaking of illegal gambling, your pool money should arrive soon.
