The old Captain is up to his old tricks again. At his own tournament in Sloan, Iowa.( WinnaVegas Casino ) He almost got barred from the Casino for sexually harassing the female dealers. He did everything from repeatedly asking them to dinner to commenting on their breast size and even asking them to his room for sex. And he did this at a table full of players and even within ear shot of the floor.He still persisted even after he was informed by the women that they were either married or not interested .A formal complaint was made and investigated.But by law, the casino only has to investigate the charges and take steps to prevent it from happening again.And a Indian casino has it's own set of rules which are not nearly as tough ...lol. But by the the time the casino finished the investigation the event was over ,fulfilling the second requirement of the law. If the event is over, " it can't happen again" It Got so bad that they stopped all the ladies from dealing and would only let the men deal the rest of the tournament. After hearing that this had happened I googled Tom Franklin's name and found out that this wasn't his first trouble with the women folk. The dealers have a very difficult job and they don't need this crap from the players. Especially a so called professional . And by the way this isn't a rumor . My wife was a dealer at this event and had to listen to a pathetic old man hit on her and the other girls. The only thing he succeeded in doing was embarrassing himself and preventing them from finishing their jobs. It's a sad day win our game is seen by the world in this manner . But if the light is on him maybe it will save the next group of ladies this ordeal. So if you see The old Captain, ask him about almost getting banned from his own tournament. " The Tom Franklin Invitational " at the WinnaVegas casino.
