According to the \u201cHustler Casino Live\u201d stream regulars, Shen brought a trick card deck to a recreational private game in Yorba Linda, Calif., where Arcot, Fei, and other friends played with blinds of $25\/$50 and $50\/$100.<\/p>\n
Shen\u2019s deck supposedly allowed him to see through the cards, presumably with the help of special contact lenses, according to the unsubstantiated allegations. For about a year, Shen supposedly won just over $3 million using this deck.<\/p>\n
After a game, we found a cheating deck,\u201d Wesley told Poker News,<\/em> which broke the story. \u201cThe deck is a very good cheating deck that you can’t find. But we went to a very dark room and we used a blue light and then you can see the numbers on the back of the deck.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\nShen himself won about $1.6M, according to Wesley.<\/em> However, along with his deck, he also brought to the games two co-conspirators whose winnings totaled $1.5M.<\/p>\nWesley told Poker News <\/em>that he has lost a total of $1M in the twice-weekly game, which he last attended in October. On X\/Twitter, Arcot posted that he too was cheated out of $1M by \u201csomeone who I thought was a close friend of mine.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cAll details and what not will be released soon in more digestible format,\u201d Arcot posted on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Shen Denies Cheating<\/h2>\n According to Wesley, after being confronted with the evidence, Shen admitted that the deck was marked. However, he denied cheating with it.<\/p>\n
It’s a special deck and he admitted the deck has a problem,\u201d<\/strong> Wesley said. Wesley said Shen told him he didn\u2019t know who brought the deck to the game.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n“Mars said, ‘Maybe you’re losing and you don’t want to pay, so you’re changing the deck,'” Wesley told Poker News.<\/em> “If we are cheating, how can we lose?”<\/p>\nThese allegations have nothing to do with \u201cHustler Casino Live,\u201d which is still smarting over its own poker cheating scandal<\/a> last year.<\/strong><\/p>\nShen has yet to acknowledge the allegations via his X\/Twitter account, @Marsback2earth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
