Winnipeg Free Press...minimal details
WINNIPEG police are saying very little about a raid Thursday night that shut down an illegal gambling operation in the Corydon Avenue area.
Police would only say that several individuals were arrested and face charges of illegal gaming.
Police had cordoned off a portion of Corydon Avenue near Daly Street, as they searched an area business and made several arrests.
Police said they would release more details on the illegal gambling operation next week.
Apparently they attempted to raid three clubs, but the third didn't have a game going at the time. So nothing happened there.
We have one casino in this province that spreads poker. Six tables, LHE only. The clubs offered NL and PL holdem and were quite popular.
By law people running the club or in the club at the time face up to two year less a day in jail.
