Comedian Drew Carey is a poker player and recently he put up a show concerning a poker raid in Texas that he thought was a bit over the top. His online program, 'Reason TV', can be found on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/), and this particular episode has gotten a lot of play among poker players. Carey, who called poker "as American as apple pie", detailed the Dallas raid on a Veteran of Foreign Wars poker tournament, where the VFW was trying to raise money in support of a child who had died in connection with drugs. This raid is one of many examples of the pressure being applied to poker game play in the United States. Cary makes a good point: Poker is an American game, albeit one you cannot play online.
