OK here's the deal and update to what’s going on. All Joking Aside….

As many of you know, I own a deli.. A casino video poker deli.. With slot machines and video poker in it.

It is LEGAL here in this state.. In fact they are state leased and managed machines.. Licensed and legal.. 83% of the revenue of this Deli comes from Video Poker revenue..

Of which this biz has its banking done at B of A...

It has taken some time to explain to them that yes indeed the account there was used for gaming income. But LEGAL gaming income.. As licensed by the state.. Thus they have no right to close this account for "gambling" as the lumped this all into.. For it was LEGAL...

As for the credit cards like the World Series of Poker Visa they gave me, yes that will be closed.. It was used for what is now considered illegal online gambling. There is no excuse for that and I have accepted this.. No excuses from me on this.. Funny how its a "poker" credit card issued to me when I was in Las Vegas playing in the world series of poker, but all joking aside it is something I can live with.

As for the other accounts, we are filing an appeal which im confident will turn out just fine..

Time will tell.

This has been a learning experience to say the least.
