Message: [QUOTE="Dutydog, post: 5379661, member: 409926"] I am sure we would all agree that if the allegations against Mike Postle are proved, that what he did amounts to cheating and he will no longer be welcome in the poker community. In 2017, England’s Supreme Court found against Phil Ivey in his attempt to recover winnings from Punto Banco against Genting. The facts were uncontested: Ivey had gained an advantage by edge sorting and by asking the croupier to rotate the relevant cards, without her realising why she was being asked to do so. The Supreme Court’s judgment was that this amounted to cheating and was dishonest, a decision which seems to have done no harm to Ivey’s reputation. So my question is simply, where do you think the line is drawn between what is acceptable in gaining an edge and cheating? [/QUOTE]
