10 thoughts on “He was banned from casinos after winning $20M

  1. The casino's have been robbing people since Vegas was a shyte hole in the desert. Ain't no fun when the rabbit has the gun

  2. Those casinos didn’t pay. Shame on the casinos, none of us should ever go to either one.

  3. guy narrator must have been part of the casinos. There was no scheme and Ivey's request were not bizarre.

  4. I've been trying to think recently if the roles were reversed. If you went to a casino and all the dealers were able to read the back of the cards, but you didn't know that, would that be fair to you? By sitting at the table you do technically agree to whatever decks or terms the casinos are using at the time.

    At first I agreed with Ivey that what he didn't wasn't cheating, but now it is less clear to me.

  5. His method of play is actually based on a close-up magic principle called “going to the movies”. Most decks of cards have minor printing imperfections, usually resulting in the back design being offset by a small amount. This potentially allows a skilled eye to take notice of particular cards of they are flipped around different from the rest of the pack. For most use cases, these minor imperfections are either imperceptible or inconsequential to the game. But a skilled eye can take notice of the high cards that have been turned around for “good luck”, and act accordingly. He tricked the casinos. He withheld the truth of what he was planning and suffered the consequences.
