It\u2019s a technique that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/poker\/\">poker<\/a> pro <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Phil_Ivey\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Phil Ivey<\/a> used to win more than $21 million, during a baccarat blowout at both the Borgata Hotel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/\">Casino<\/a> &amp; Spa, in Atlantic City, and Crockfords in London.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Not content with being one of the world\u2019s best poker players, Phil Ivey collaborated with professional gambler Cheung Yin \u2018Kelly\u2019 Sun to cheat the casinos. Sun had spotted that certain decks of cards had minute manufacturing deviations in the pattern, on the back of every card.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The deviation was along the edge of each card and could only be spotted when you rotated the card by 180 degrees. Basically, the cards were not symmetrical.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Though the results were successful, it ultimately led to a lawsuit filed by the Borgata Casino against Ivey for $9 million. The amount is how much he and Sun wont at the Borgata after determining that they had used edge sorting to gain an advantage. Sun also lost in an effort to get back $1.1 million confiscated by Foxwoods Casino in 2011 when the casino determined that she was edge sorting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"The Greatest Legal Casino Heist in History\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uEkl2yAdoHw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:image {\"id\":9264,\"sizeSlug\":\"full\",\"linkDestination\":\"custom\"} \/--><!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hitting the Punto Banco Tables<\/strong><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Sun and Ivey hit the punto banco (a version of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/baccarat\/\">baccarat<\/a>) tables for a high-rolling private session. Sun persuaded the dealers that Ivey was superstitious and liked certain cards \u2013 7, 8, and 9 (the most important cards in baccarat) &#8211; rotated by 180 degrees for \u2018luck\u2019. The croupier agreed to turn the cards. This is the \u2018edge sorting\u2019 element of the sting, because due to the irregularities in the card design the players could now see when these three numbers were dealt.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>They also insisted on a purple Gemaco brand deck and a Mandarin-speaking dealer (he or she would appreciate the \u2018superstition\u2019 aspect of the sting). When the pair had played through the entire shoe of cards, they asked to play it again \u2013 as it had been so lucky. The casinos both obliged.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This enabled Ivey and Sun to spot the tiny deviations and bet accordingly. The pair had spotted a weakness and exploited it. The casino was oblivious to their bizarre demands because these two were serious high rollers and betting big. The casino expected their winning run to end. It didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>After the 48-hour Crockfords session, Ivey was up $10 million and the casino insisted the shoe had to be changed. The casino reviewed its surveillance, checked the deck, and eventually discovered the con. A judge would later observe that: \u201cnobody at Crockfords had heard of edge-sorting before\u201d.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>It was a unique sting. In the end, both casinos sued for their money back and ultimately won. Ivey admits to edge sorting but still insists that he is innocent of cheating, stating that: he believed that edge-sorting was a \u2018legitimate advantage play technique\u2019 and \u2018legitimate gamesmanship\u2019.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Advantages and Disadvantages of Edge Sorting<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Like any other card game technique, there is good and bad to it. Let\u2019s look at the pros first:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s not technically illegal. There are no laws against it but most casinos frown upon it, similar to card counting in blackjack.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Players who are good at edge sorting will find themselves with a much larger advantage over the house, as much as 6% in a game like baccarat.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For high rollers, edge sorting is particularly beneficial. The more money being wagered, the more flexible dealers and casinos are going to be to certain requests.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">All that said, there are some definite negatives to be had. Here are the major downsides to employing edge sorting as a technique:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is very, very difficult to use. It\u2019s one of the hardest strategies in baccarat that there is and it takes something special to not only notice those tiny differences but to employ them within the game.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It takes very specific circumstances for this strategy to work. You need to be playing with a flawed deck, there has to be a shuffling machine, and you need to be close enough to the cards to see the flaws for it to work.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00b7<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, you could not only be accused of cheating but blacklisted from casinos. It isn\u2019t illegal, so you won\u2019t get in legal trouble, but the vast majority of casinos frown upon it, won\u2019t pay you, and will ultimately blacklist you.<\/span><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is Edge Sorting a Legit Tactic or Cheating?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Had Ivey been counting cards, or simply exploited the bias of a wonky roulette wheel, he may have cleared his name. However, he deceived the croupier, and had the cards rotated, to spot a manufacturing flaw. In short: he cheated.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>A British High Court judge ruled that, despite what Ivey believed, cheating had taken place, arguing: \u201cIf he had surreptitiously gained access to the shoe and rearranged the cards physically himself, no one would begin to doubt that he was cheating.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u201cHe accomplished exactly the same result through the unwitting but directed actions of the croupier, tricking her into thinking that what she did was irrelevant. What Mr. Ivey did was to stage a carefully planned and executed sting.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Ivey may have lost his court case and various appeals but a film is in the works. However, the moral of this story would certainly seem to be that edge-sorters never prosper!<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everyone wants to beat the casino.
