World Series of Poker Player Home Raided

While most people wouldn't consider it a problem to walk away from a poker game with over one and a half million dollars, for San Antonio resident Richard Lee, it may eventually cost him more than he earned as a finalist at the 37th annual World Series of Poker this year. Lee, who showed his love for his hometown of San Antonio throughout the final table of the Main Event, received some special attention from the city's Police Department during a recent home raid in which luxury cars, computer equipment, and cash were seized in connection with a search warrant issued under suspicion of an illegal gambling operation. While Lee has not been formally charged, police said that they found "a person of note" sitting at a computer viewing an illegal poker website, it was part of the investigation.
