Galveston County Criminal District Attorney Kurt Sistrunk alleged he established a resident protest on the poker run the day prior to it happened. Blue Knights section leader D.J. Alvarez believed following that telephone, that the club will continue with the poker run, but call off the money awards. Alvarez pointed that merely three or four riders will withdraw from the Blue Knights run on that weekend. He said Abbott's decision will have a grave effect on benevolent poker runs athwart Texas.

"You have poker runs each weekend," held Alvarez, a deputy in the Galveston Police division. "They're all for disease institutes, altruistic associations." He said they are particularly helpful in gathering cash for wounded police force or fire men. Whereas Abbott's decision particularly dealt with the Blue Knights' poker run, Sistrunk said he expects it to prohibit all similar fund-raising actions by altruistic assemblies." They will be obliged to come about with another method of gathering capital," Sistrunk said. One of the main poker runs in the Houston district is supported by the Competition Motorcycles of Pearland group. Owner Jesse McCulley stated that his run is destined to encourage motorcycling, with all the funds being handed out in the awards. McCulley said Abbott's declaration will unconstructively influence charitable trust actions if there are no real money rewards for poker runs.
