“State and local authorities raided a monthly poker tournament at a bar in the city of Largo, after an investigation into unlawful gambling. The Nutz Poker League, which was running a free game open to the public at Louie’s Grill and Sports Bar at the time of the crackdown, said on its Facebook page that some of the police were in ‘full riot gear’ and had their ‘weapons drawn.’ Felony charges have been filed, according to the league. Under Florida law, the felonies would be in the third degree and could carry a prison sentence of up to five years.”
