I like how while this is a huge argument in favor of legalizing poker to make it so people didnt have to go underground. However I'm sure it will be spun as "look what poker makes people do". Argh imo. Horrible about the guy who died imo.

Let me say this.

I knew Frank for about 3-4 years from the NJ/NYC poker scene. Couldn't ever find anyone who had a bad word to say about the guy. Frank and I would always talk the Yankees. Nicest guy, its a shame and hope these guys get caught. I'd love to bee there when they get arrested.

God Bless Frank. RIP
