Default Re: We have a problem

I've got a nightmare story to tell.

What would you do?

We have a weekly HE game that we play every Thursday night at a local restaurant with about 25 players.

The game has been going along for a couple years now.

About a month ago a couple of us noticed some shady dealing from one of our regulars. Turns out he is stacking the deck, passing the deck to his buddy next to him who does a false cut, and sure enough gives himself perfect cards.

My brother wrote down the cards prior to the hand that he saw him working over and sure enough when it came to showdown, those were the cards he showed.

Here's the tough part...he's a cop.

What do you think? Confront him? Shut down the game for awhile and then don't invite him back?

Not long ago I played regularly in a private game where the game's sponsor discovered that one of the regulars was palming chips from other player's stacks and from the chip well.

The host solved the problem by alerting all of the other players, then staging a fake announcement that the game was being cancelled for such-and-such a reason. He called the game off for a couple of weeks then started it up again shortly thereafter. The thief didn't return.
