I play a live tourney in my neighborhood on Thursdays. When one of the guys was handling the chips, he rotated his wrists and showed his palms like a dealer occasionally does, so I had some fun and mimicked it.
He said “We’ve had some issues with a player stealing chips” and he showed me 4 or 5 videos of the player doing that very thing, taking several chips from a pot someone else won, before sliding the rest to them.
They bring his name up often, but this was the first time I saw him in action. Made me sick.
After he was caught the first time, by the player pretending to scroll FB while recording him, the guy apologized and returned some of his winnings. Then he was later caught dealing himself aces off the bottom of the deck, and he is now banned.
I’m guessing he grew up cheating like that and it’s in his blood. Just can’t stop himself. It was wild to see videos of it.

Closest I've ever seen to that was our Christmas Eve afternoon games where I worked over forty years ago. It was a nickel/dime dealer's choice game and the Doog, one of the salesmen, would squirrel away money now and then during the course of the game. Just unethical and not really cheating.
