Your ‘Dead Money’ blogger Michael and how he looked when he hit that Straight Flush earlier this year. It was unbelievable and I kept my Poker Face throughout. Of course I was playing online so it wasn’t too difficult to maintain. Too bad I wasn’t at a WPT event TV Final Table.

• Shawn Sheikhan faces Deportation

Immigration Officials arrested Shawn Sheikhan on August 30, 2007 at his Las Vegas home according to a story by Lynnette Curtis in the Las Vegas Review Journal. He was held for more than a week before he posted $10,000 bond. Possible deportation is on the horizon for Sheikhan over his 1995 conviction on charges of sexual battery and annoyance or molestation of a child.

Federal authorities are looking to deport Sheikhan because of the misdemeanor conviction in California.

“This individual was targeted for ICE arrest because of his criminal history,” Virginia Kice, a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, said in an e-mail message Wednesday. “ICE has an ongoing initiative called Operation Predator targeting individuals, including foreign nationals, who prey upon and sexually exploit children.”

“We want to see him removed from the United States,”

Source: Las Vegas Review Journal

Sheikhan served 9 months in jail and 5 years probation following the conviction.

Your ‘Dead Money’ blogger Michael and how he looked when he hit that Straight Flush earlier this year. It was unbelievable and I kept my Poker Face throughout. Of course I was playing online so it wasn’t too difficult to maintain. Too bad I wasn’t at a ‘Bad Beat’ Jackpot table.
