In reality, the apd and sheriff's pretty much leave raked games alone. Media coverage may actually force them to act in this situation tho.
The only time I've seen raked games get in touble is when they're dumb enough to advertise on Craigslist, or if other trouble happens such as drugs, fights, or cheating.
If any of you remember the lawyer that came through cheating with that card reader mechanism that ended up with one of the best rooms in Austin ever to get shut down when someone called the cheese because of it.
I don't mind the raked games - they're definitely tougher, but many of them are just poor locations or a seedy environment altogether (drugs, unsavory characters, dirty, etc). It's nice to be in a clean, safe feeling environment.
