Poker player robs the home of Darren Elias; holds babysitter at gunpoint

A fellow poker player has robbed the home of Darren Elias, holding a 19-year-old babysitter at gunpoint while she cared for Elias’s two-year-old child. 

The New Jersey home of Darren Elias doesn’t feel like home to the Elias family this morning.

On Thursday, 24-year-old, Shannon Soroka from Philadelphia, forced his way into Elias’s family home, put a gun in the back of a 19-year-old babysitter, and demanded she shows him where Elias keeps his money and valuables.

Elias and his wife were out at the time of the burglary.
