You left out the part where the dealer may have been involved. If the dealer is not involved I agree with you. Guess that's why they're going to court.

The lawsuit claims that Ivey and his companion instructed a dealer to flip cards in particular ways, depending on whether it was a desirable card in baccarat. The numbers 6, 7, 8 and 9 are considered good cards. Bad cards would be flipped in different directions, so that after several hands of cards, the good ones were arranged in a certain manner -- with the irregular side of the card facing in a specific direction -- that Ivey could spot when they came out of the dealer chute.

That still isn't illegal. They just asked the dealer to flip the cards a certain way. Does that mean they paid the dealer? No.

If the dealer truly was involved then yes, it's cheating. But just reading the description here it seems Ivy noticed the defect and asked the dealer to deal in a way that helped him spot that card later. I see nothing wrong with this.
That said, whether it is "wrong" in some moral sense is probably irrelevant, what matters here is what is legal.
