05-Apr-06. Charges mount from poker raid. Edmonton Sun, 16.

Eleven more people have been charged in connection with last month’s raid on an Edmonton poker game by gaming and police officers. The charges relate to being found in a common gaming house without lawful excuse. Alberta Gaming alleges those running the gaming house were taking a cut from each hand of poker that was played which the commission says is against the law.
