POKER PLAYER'S WINNINGS FROZEN

"What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas," is the current slogan for my fair city.

However, that is not supposed to be the case with a gambler's winnings.

Jamie Gold, winner of the "World Series of Poker", has had his winnings frozen after a lawsuit was filed by a man claiming to have evidence that he's entitled to half of the final pot.

It looks as if he has a solid claim too as reported in this article.

I was in a gambling mood and wanted to enter this year's tournament, and my wife agreed. She set two conditions though, I had to raise the entry fee on my own, and finally remember which was higher, a Flush or a straight.

Maybe next year I'll at least have the money saved.
