I find it sickening. I was involved in a hit and run accident on IH35 last week. I got the vehical license plate number and a full discription of it and gave the information to the Dallas police. They informed me I would need to file with my insurance. Said THEY DO NOT HAVE TIME TO DEVOTE TO A NONE LIFE THREATENING SITUATION. To bad the guy that hit me wasn't playing poker while driving. I waited over an hour for a police officer to come out and write up an accident report but none ever showed. Four did drive by me but they didn't stop. MUST HAVE BEEN ON THEIR WAY TO A POKER BUST. My third call to 911, I was made aware it could be quite a few hours before anyone would be by. Obviously the Dallas Police and their management are misdirecting valuable resources to shut down GOOD PEOPLE HAVING GOOD Fun(a victimless crime)instead of focusing on catching real criminals. Sure will miss the V. I too was at the V. I find it sickening. I was involved in a hit and run accident on IH35 last week.

As i arrived home tonight after leaving the VFW I decided to look up our bust and to my surprise saw news of the Audie Murphey bust on this site . I FREQUENTED this particular establishment and was present during the raid. Just to clear things up, there were not 12 employee arrests, but there were at the very least 65 or 70 citations. It really sucks that they insist on forbidding us to PLAY CARDS. We have the lotto, bingo, horseracing, but not cards!! I don't want to say specifically what all went down there so as not to further incriminate my extended poker family, but it was a good joint. What sucks about this bust is that a lot of vets play there. These guys fought for our country and don't deserve to get a fine for gambling their money and having a little fun. I agree we all know the circumstances for gambling in poker rooms, but this time it really bites, nothing but families, vets, and hard working folk. The V was the "Cheers" of places to play poker and will be sadly missed. And no s*#t it was a FULL house. One of the cops stood there slowly pacing back and forth with one hand in his left pocket while he would ever so often reach into his right to take out his sunflower seeds and chew them out and spit them on the floor. He did this over and over for an hour straight. Working real hard he was! He told the players to put out their smokes so their officers weren't in danger of being burned in an attempted attack!! Ha Ha! Real danger to society, our kind. Well, i've yacked and yacked. Can't give myself away here. Where is there to play now???? Signing off-Shadow in the V! and no, there were not multiple rooms, just one big one, 8 tables. And the name of the band was Led and the Love Company! Good band too.

I hear from multiple sources about Top Shelf and the Island Club (have never before heard of this place, however) -- and tend to believe them. A Pokeratizen confirms being at one of these in a comment on the previous post. The phrase "three others" also keeps popping up ... but in every Dallas poker bust I have followed, there are always reports of "three others" that never materialize.
