Video Poker Verdict $41 Million Judgment

While the United States government will not likely get close to the total settlement, a victory of sorts occurred the other day in federal court when the US won a $41 million judgment against John "Duffy" Conley, a video poker "kingpin". Conley was sentenced in May to four more years in prison after violating the supervised release after nine years in prison. The judgment covers unpaid taxes on illegal earnings back to 1985. His first conviction was for running a video poker organization, along with a sports betting outfit.
