Charitable Poker Events Accused of Being Front for Slot Sneakiness

At the Seabrook Greyhound Park on Route 107, Texas Holdem poker events held to benefit charities are a regular occurrence, and one that brings in a lot of money for the charities. The players benefit, the track benefits, and it seems like a way for everyone to win, but some are accusing the Seabrook dog track - among others - of using the charitable functions as a front to bring in slot machines and turn their operations into casinos. Called "racinos", racetracks that are suffering a decline in business from the actual dog races try and build a business by including slot machines on site - not a strictly legal operation.
