Ed Jacobs, the attorney for the nine-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner, stressed that the judge affirmed that Ivey had followed every rule of baccarat and did not commit fraud.

So skill is not allowed?

No, his attorney was speaking half truths, since they had the dealer stack the deck for them. There was no skill involved at all.

It really wasn’t skill. They found a dishonest way to get the dealers to mark the cards since they had asymmetric patterns on the back. The partner said she wanted some cards turned a certain way because she was superstitious which was a lie.
