The Dark Side of Poker

There is a darker side to poker that isn't often looked at, but every so often it rears its head. Poker is big money, and with big money, crime is soon to follow. Sadly thats just what happened to a player in the Aussie Millions tournament.

Poker News has the story:


22-year-old American Jason Potter saw his first-ever trip to an overseas tournament take a major turn to the worse when he was robbed at knife point while walking back from a McDonald's in the early morning hours of Monday.


Scary stuff. Read the whole article over at Poker News to get the details, and maybe it can serve as a cautionary tale for us all.
