How could these players possible cheat in a casino setting? Unless the dealer was in on it.

Lots of ways to cheat. He says any cheating pack has management on their side. Dealers can also be brought in to cold deck etc. Cameras, marked cards etc can also be used.

Have a look at the movement of the big game and management over the years.

Is he implying that the big players collude when fresh money sits at the table?

Yes. If I recall correctly, he says most of the big game is for show.

I assume he means they are passing chips around until they attract a sucker.

I have also long thought that some play in the game on other players bankrolls (say chip and doyle's), probably in return for a flat wage. So RussG may mean this also. I used to think this was why negreanu started playing the big game, as he was supposedly broke one minute, and consistently playing in the big game the next. His public attitude also changed around the same time. He stopped shooting his mouth off. This was at a time where it would have been good pr for the big game amongst joe public that worshipped danny- if he played the game, it must be honest, and the rumours are untrue etc. Just an opinion I have.

Cheats...including DN!

Re: Who is Russ Georgiev
 

the most collusion happens in the big game. that is why the rich banker would not play the "team" in a full ring game.

do you guys really think that doyle can last in the big game on his own at his age. a lot of his play on televised events is far from elite play. i agree that he must of been a great player in his prime, but the only reason he is surviving in the big game is because he was grandfathered in (he was one of the original team members).

usually one fish comes to the big game and the "team" destroys him and splits the profits. what a great scam.

and the sadest part....doyle has a flock of groupies who idolize him.
