Default Pennsylvania game robbed

[ QUOTE ]
WILKINS TOWNSHIP, Pa. -- About 50 people competing in a poker tournament in Wilkins Township were ordered to the floor by robbers, police said.

Three or four armed men fired shots into the walls and ceiling at the Italian American Club and took money from the tables and the patrons, police said.

The robbery happened Dec. 21, and the culprits are still at large, police said.


Police said they will release a composite drawing of one of the robbers.

That wasn't a home game. I'm sure the club was advertising and such and the thieves picked up on it.

Yeah these clubs gotta seem like easy targets to someone that is considering doing something so lame... mostly retired people and vets, etc.

You don't get into a gunfight 1 against 3 or 4 with 50 innocent bystanders if you can avoid it by giving up your money. Make the EV play here.

Oh, and to the other poster, no Doyle wouldn't have had a gun...not having a gun is one of the ways you get to be the grandfather of poker...
