Following the raid, police arrested Choi Song Min, 35, Han Kyoreh, 26, Jeong Kyuji, 35, and Bae Jonghwan, 26. Police also seized a large amount of computer and electronic equipment including four computers, eight monitors, six hard drives and numerous ledgers detailing bets. Ten password generators were also found. Daily News reports the men have confessed to their involvement.

KenKadz Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Isn't this the fourth group of foreign gambling operations arrested in Pattaya in the last year, not counting the Bridge Players? Maybe authorities need to hurry up with those new Pattaya casinos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Get Real Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 The big question is why they choose to put their operation in a country that has laws against it, when they mainly cater to another country. Not very smart guys. There are many countries that allow these operations, and also are cheap for living in. Just not very smart. Really dumb!

That's why it has to be Pattaya... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veritas48 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 It is time that Immigration took a closer look at Koreans......just far too many of them doing golf coaching and golf tours around Thailand...can't be genuine in my opinion.Too many youngsters so probably overstay.
