Jorgensen's wife, who had to watch helplessly as her husband was shot multiple times, called the police, who searched the house and the neighbourhood with dogs, but no one has been arrested yet.

well i must say he wasn't prepared that good as he say he is. sure if you have no bodyguards it's hard to be safe even with most sophisticated alarm systems. i think he should think of hiring a bodyguard if he is making serious money, or move to some safer location, where his neighbors would be way richer than him- so no one would be interested in robbing him

Rich people will always have the attention of bad people. Not only poker players knowing for winning a lot, but these have a bigger problem associated, which is the media turning them more famous and known. It’s just like movie stars in Hollywood, I bet they have lots of security costs. But it’s better to spend some on that to prevent the worst.

Well i am glad to see he was well enough to post on his facebook page. Also like pochui said above " i think he should think of hiring a bodyguard if he is making serious money, or move to some safer location." I am said to state I agree with him that perhaps some personal security might be needed to protect his family and maybe a couple well trained dogs.
As i wrote last time, i think this is dark side of being pro and successful. ALso rich but i never get it up , why is someone robbyng someones houses, when they must know, there must be alarm systems. Anywasy, i will say it agine i wich him fast reconvalescence.Good luck
