Huge Benson Poker Bust Tonight

Huge Benson Poker Bust Tonight
By George Smart

NC Alcohol Law Enforcement with help from the Johnston County Sheriff and the Highway Patrol busted approximately 80 people for gambling tonight in a building off Bear Road in Johnston County. The occasion was a $500 Hold’em poker tournament. Also present were roulette, craps, and blackjack tables. Johnston County Sheriff Steve Bizzell said on WPTF radio earlier tonight the raid was initiated by the ALE who had had the place under surveillance for some time.

Unlike the Cary raid in March, no National Guardsmen, SWAT teams, helicopters, or automatic weapons were used. The whole event was described as “gentlemanly.” Police after entering the building asked players to put their hands on the table. After the scene was secured, each player was processed and issued a misdemeanor ticket for violating NC Statute 14-292 - gambling.

More later as this story develops.

Thank god this seems to just be a media footnote this time. I didn't really want my name and address posted all over the place twice in one year.

I think that we'll be fortunate if something isn't made of the list. There were so many involved that I believe they'll come back with that information later. I hope you're right!
