  2. Seems a bit harsh, i'm sure he will be snapped up by another site in no time.
  3. one of my favourite players, shame to see and he only lives down the road.

  4. Maybe he wasn't dropped, but his deal was up, and he didn't like the new terms. He will be pretty marketable on UK/Europe sites, so he might be shopping around for a better deal.

    Dario wasn't dropped, he is a pro on pokerstars.it. He is only allowed to play on that client unless he moves out of Italy.
  8. I heard princesa 'rolled' some dices in LV to get dropped.
  9. she did, plus another pro (player), got busted big time - amazing what some will do to get an edge
  10. Any links to either of these stories? If not can you share more details while I get out some popcorn?

    I googled her and a bunch of links came up.

    Seems shady that Wynn would make these accusations after the fact they won $700k and accuse them of cheating.
    Whenever I have played craps there is usually a couple employees working the table, and pit bosses pretty much everywhere.

  14. Found an article on this. It looks like they were doing some bet sliding, which is very hard to pull off and to become an expert in. The pits are normally looking for people betting on 9, 10, 11, 12 when it seems a 6 is being slided or likewise looking for 2,3,4,5 when a 1 is being slided. Looks like they tried it once to often.

  15. If they did in fact cheat, then well done.
  16. I have played a lot of craps ... the stickmen and boxman and pit boss WATCH for 'sliding' ... I have seen stickmen whack the dice with the stick and call 'no roll' if the shooter tries a 'slide'...I really find it hard to believe high roller stickmen at the craps tables at the Wynn would stand there and allow sliding to happen right in front of them and not do anything about it at the time the sliding was happening. This whole story sounds like Steve Wynn is simply pissed off because he lost 700K and he is cooking up these cheating stories to try to get back money that was won fairly...Steve Wynn is also the same guy who poked a hole in a Picasso painting and then sued the insurance company for $54 million for a hole HE poked in the painting...Wynn might as well poke holes in ALL his paintings and cash in big time and still get to keep the paintings...
