Y'all think Silver gonna release a statement or will he stay quiet and pretend like this whole thing has nothing to do with him and his decision to open the flood gates to gambling?
 
Fuck!



Chauncey's part of the mob? :lol:

I'm skeptical as fuck about all this. Didn't they try to charge Gilbert Arenas for the same shit a few months ago?
Plus I see it's Trump's boy Patel with the FBI at the press conference. I don't trust noting that mothafucka has to say.
And what the hell is "illegal poker" and what does that have to do with sports betting?
And then I'm supposed to believe a bunch of black NBA players are tied in with the mob. FOH

I'm hoping that it's just a bunch of bs, but been that the FBI's involved I don't think so.

And when it comes to poker games, if it's high stakes the state wants their cut.




While hosting a cash poker game isn't illegal by definition, the operation crossed into a criminal act as organizers would "collect a 'rake' — that is, a fee the house would charge from each pot either as a percentage or a fixed amount per hand," according to charging documents.

The FBI waited until opening week to break this news? They're clearly trying to send a message and to me this feels political.
Trump appeases to his MAGA base by arresting a bunch of rich black folks.
A bunch of black millionaires are exchanging money with each other and the gov't now wants their cut.
