OK, it's been a while

I'm going to try and rekindle this blog, at least for nothing else than chronicling the home game.

For now, a couple of quick posts:

First, Johnny Law has stepped up their local enforcement activities lately. I have been playing semi-regularly at a local semi-official poker room. From them this week:

Hi Folks!!

The Wake County community is stirring with lots of news, gossip, speculation, and fear about the events that took place yesterday at “The Cabin”. There are many stories circulating about what took place and what is on the agenda of Wake County District Atty. Mr. C. Willoughby.

My lawyers and I are in the process of trying to uncover all the facts and projections, but here is some information that I think is reasonably accurate:

Sometime yesterday afternoon (June 19) a group of law enforcement officers entered “The Cabin” which is a popular local poker room that is located inside Wake County. The officers issued citations to several people and confiscated cash from the individuals as well as equipment and other articles from the building. There are reports that the officers even searched the vehicles that were parked outside and that they took money from these vehicles in addition to the money they took from the people inside the building. So far, the information is sketchy and not very reliable, but there is no information that anyone was actually taken into custody. I haven’t been able to find any newspaper report of the incident. I have received telephone calls from other poker room operators in the area who have shared information with me and have asked my opinion.

I am not the least bit concerned for myself or for my property, but in order to gain additional information and to avoid any inconvenience to others, I have decided to take a short vacation.
