Stones Gambling Hall pulls plug on livestreamed poker games after cheating allegations
Found on CNBC on Monday, 07 October 2019
Brill has no specific accusation of what Postle is doing and even admits that she can’t be sure he is cheating. So why does she think he is cheating? His results are too good, according to Brill.
It’s not just that Postle is winning, it’s how he’s winning, that is drawing suspicion. Ingram, Berkey and others have spent hours reviewing hands Postle played and found several times where Postle made a fold or a call that wouldn’t seem “right” but happened to work out in his favor.
In a statement Stones Gambling Hall said: “We temporarily halted all broadcasts from Stones. We have also, as a result, halted the use of RFID playing cards.”
So, they use RFID tagged cards which broadcast their values to everybody and wonder if someone cheats? Just play with a few sets of those old-fashioned, un-smart cards and see how things turn out.
