Casino-Style Gambling Busted: 2

A South Carolina gambling bust that saw 27 individuals arrested for running a poker gambling ring is a prime argument for why online casinos gambling should not be the only industry targeted by increased scrutiny. Many politicians harangue the internet gambling industry for limitations, crime, and addition, but this latest bus coupled with increasing reports of gambling busts indicate that illegal gambling is rampant in any gambling industry, not just online casinos gambling.

The arrest is actually quite controversial because the two allegedly responsible for organizing the gambling ring claim that they had no formal employees and that the poker casino nights were not nearly as organized as the investigation claims they were. The Martin and Dawn Reyes were arrested on charges related to home land and online casino-style poker gambling nights. Despite protests that there were no paid pitbosses and dealers, the Charleston County Sheriff's Major John Clark commented, "This isn't boys' poker night out. This isn't just friends getting together and playing poker for a quarter or a dollar. This was an organised poker operation in which they had people in positions who were acting as employees. They were being paid to do their jobs."

Dawn Reyes has protested the claims that she and her husband orgainized the poker nights with the intention of taking in rake and monetary compensation from the poker games. Her statement claims that all players got back all of the money they won by the end of the night – every at the poker nights from the pitbosses to the dealers were there for the fun and not part of a larger gambling company-like structure.
