Underground poker: Tobey Maguire in front of the American courts on January 30, 2012
The verdict of the episode of illegal poker games played by the American actor Tobey Maguire will be certainly known early next year. Indeed, the U.S. court has set a date for his trial for Monday, January 30, 2012. Thus, the Hollywood star of the seventh art should defend himself face to the charges alleged against him. Moreover, this passionate of poker had already had the opportunity to demonstrate his integrity and at the same time he categorically denied the facts that are blamed. Effectively, from the Texas Prison where he is confined, he found the opportunity to broadcast on the website TMZ.com copies of three checks entering the sum of $ 168,500 he paid on behalf of Brad Ruderman, the initiator of poker table High Stakes during the period 2007-2009.
But as there is indeed a law which forbids any organization of illegal poker tournaments in many states of the United States, the actor must appear in front of the competent court to tell the judge his plea of innocence. According to the American justice, Spider Man pocketed illegally a huge sum of $ 300,000, a money that the source is considered as unauthorized. In fact, the final objective of the justice is to break down, once and for all, the crook organizer of the tournament Brad Ruderman. Thus, through this trial to be held in late January, federal authorities want to end the scam perpetrated on a large scale by this passionate of high stakes poker.
