The house of Al Elchert, at Tiffin, in the State of Ohio has been victim of an armed robbery on August 24, 2010 during a private poker game taking place there. The two masked assailants threw a bag on the game table while threatening the ten gamers to store their money inside. The six participants in the game obeyed at once without waiting for the other four, according to the testimony of Elchert. In running away, the thieves dropped $ 125, according always to Elchert who insisted in the fact that for nearly a half-century that he played cards, his house was left open, and never knew incident.
