If it is your poker table, in your home, with your cards, then it is your responsibility to ensure that they are fair.
There is a rule in poker: "it is the player's responsibility to protect his hand".
- RockyMcNuts 12y agoSuppose I'm taking steps to hide my cards, but you take overt acts to see them, like a mirror or something? At some point a sequence of actions to defeat the protections becomes an act of fraud. Just because a lock on my door is not unpickable doesn't give everyone a license to steal everything I own. It's a gray area...once you're asking a specifically chosen dealer to do things and conceal them from the pit boss...come back and repeat it for $20m...at some point it crosses the line from taking advantage of a mistake to orchestrating a scheme to deceive and defraud. http://www.bloombergview.com/articles/2014-10-08/judge-says-poker-champ-robbed-the-casino http://www.bloombergview.com/articles/2014-10-08/judge-says-...
