Another Shooting Near Legends Poker Room Brings into Question Safety

It's becoming a broken record at this point, but yet another violent incident occurred nearby the Legends Poker Room in Houston as a robbery suspect was shot to death Wednesday morning.

The shooting had nothing to do with anything poker room related, except for the fact that similar incidents in the area are becoming regular occurrences, bringing into question just how safe it is to play poker at Legends.

On multiple occasions over the past few months, the violence has led to poker players inside the card room being forced to duck for cover. In January, a security guard at Legends foiled an armed robbery, and just last month a gunman opened fire from outside the building, spraying bullets inside.
