He was later arrested and booked into the Harris County Jail on a $5,000 bond. Officials said, "Illegal gambling often lead to much larger crimes putting the safety of the public in jeopardy. They are often targeted locations for serious crimes. These illegal gambling businesses are not regulated by the state and therefor do not create a "fair" chance at winning."
