many guys with guns
broke down door
search warrant
Nevada Gaming Commission
handcuffed Micon
next 8 hours they took his computers and camera
same time frame, something happened at the Seals server in Romania, not clear what
remainder of Seals management team quit
Bitcoins are safe
will start SwCPoker.eu soon
they knew Micon is non-violent, and they knew there was a 2 year-old kid in the house
not charged with any crime
was already planning a family trip to Antigua
does not want to raise kid where creativity is met with guns and handcuffs
Definitely a bad beat, but at least he wasn't sporting his seals logo thong for the neighbors' sake. While I agree that Micon seems like a pretty chill, non-violent guy, I don't know how outraged you get to be about people exposing your wife and 2-year-old to guns when there were already guns in the house (locked up, I assume).
Some questions about the video:
Micon, it does seem like the NV gaming commission has gotten friendlier over the years, in that you're not presently in a shallow grave halfway to Barstow. All the same, it might be wise to put another bitcoin in the therapy wallet. If they hadn't caught you with your pants down, would it have been a standoff, snap fold, or drone warfare (with banana for size reference)?
Will potmo ever get his hat? It's a real collector's item now.
Are xdev/hdev on the swcpoker project, or did they bail with the management after the illegal search and seizure? (Were they the management?) Glad to hear glitch is on board.
Also, TY for sharing the gory details and trying to bootstrap another swc. It seems like you have a small, but extremely loyal following of degens and trolls. If you build it, they will come.
