I’m not ready to declare the sky on Dallas poker falling, but it has for certain turned rather green. (Look, over there! I think it’s a wall cloud!) With the Channel 8 “expose” and the Dallas SWAT raid … there’s one other piece of info I heard recently that might also fit into the picture. Just a few days ago, a well-connected Omaha player witnessed a raid on an 8-liner room in Dallas. Cops hauled off a truckload of machines. Not sure on the location (ever wonder why there is no GuinnessandEightliner or Tao of Video Poker?), but I seem to recall hearing that there were some arrests.

Also heard that two other rooms were raided Saturday night … but I am starting to doubt that, because games are still running around town and the only buzz is “Aces.”
