Watch as Poker Tournament Robbery Happens on Live TV

An incredibly scary moment is captured on live TV as six armed robbers storm a casino while a high stakes poker tournament is being broadcast live.  The brave thiefs took over the ballroom of the Grand Hyatt in Berlin Germany where the Euro Poker Tournament was taking place.  The armed men had machine guns and made off with one million Euros.

Nearly all poker tournaments for TV or taped, then edited, and then broadcasted.  However, this particular event was being broadcast live.  Here is the frightening video when the felony takes place:

PokerStars is the promoter of the tournament and released a statement confirming the robbery and is asking for help in hopes of catching the bandits.  No one was injured during the robbery.

Speaking of gambling, I would bet a nice sum of money that first off this would not happen in Vegas, and if it did…there is NO WAY the robbers would get away with it!
