Last Friday Texas Tournaments had to cancel their January 22-25 blackjack tournaments due to police inference. Saturday the District Attorney's Office ruled that the tournaments are legal and that the police acted illegally, (just as they did two years ago and again last summer.)
The Ft. Worth police went to the hotel where the tournaments were to be held and told the general manager the tournaments were illegal. After hearing this the general manager canceled the event scheduled just two weeks away. As of today the hotel has yet to contact me they canceled on us.
Since it is illegal for the police to give legal advice, both the Ft. Worth police and hotel are liable for all damages to Texas Tournaments.
At the time of cancelation we had prepaid members from 17 states and 2 countries for the tournaments. The tournaments will be rescheduled possiblly as early as March. For more information you can contact me at rickjbj21@yahoo.com.
