...cheating scam from the business side, that I know of. As you pointed out, there has been cheating at poker since about day one. And that goes back a lot of years. I too spent a lot of years playing in Gardena in the 70's. Cheating was going on a lot there. Of course it did not help that in those days the players dealt for themselves.

Cheating goes on in online rooms & regular brick & mortar rooms. All across the country, Las Vegas included. Those running the games & those playing in them, just have to watch the games very closely for anything unusual. Andy - Las Vegas
