Gamblers can’t gamble if you take away their cards. At least, that was the logic capital police are hoping holds up after they busted seven card sharks in front of a Sen Sok district house.
Clamping down yesterday, cops caught and arrested most of the punters – who were mostly women, they say – and confiscated 11 packs of cards and three mats used for games.
Left counting blessings instead of winnings, the bettors were sent on their way after a chat with authorities and signing a promise to desist from dealing any more hands.
