It's not cheating. He used his head and beat the game. The casino controls the cards.

Phil Ivey was always big in the gambling scene, but poker didn't became relevant until Moneymaker (an amateur) won the main event.

So you are comparing people who make millions to a call of duty player?

They gave him his initial stake back so it'd me more along the lines of selling you the car, realizing they signed the wrong car over, and giving you you're 25K back.

People are assuming that all this BS about the girlfriend asking that they rotate the cards 180 degrees for good luck is true, not some BS made up by the casino or the dealer for screwing up. BTW, why would someone as skilled as Ivey need the cards rotated to spot flaws? If all that the casino is claiming actually happened, they have the dumbest staff in the history of man for catering to Ivey's every whim and not being suspicious.

I was curious if you frowned upon people that ask how you much lost when referring to your "winnings"?

I just laugh bc it's a stupid question. If I (or anyone else that understands gambling) say I won 500 that means I came home 500 ahead. If I buy in for 200 and cash out 500 that means I won 300. Is it really that hard to understand?

Counting cards is not illegal
Just they wont let u play

Pay the man its not his fault the casino used flawed cards even though they are playing $70,000 a hand.
