Cheater

Wow, you must be a casino card room consultant!

Simple. If you catch him, kick him out of the game permanently. Don't mess around.

A few days ago, I was told by a friend that there would be a game tuesday (tonight). This is a home game i've been to about 3 or 4 times, and while the play isn't good (splashing, folding out of turn) I generally keep a steady winrate. He also suspects one of the guys there to be cheating. The reason he told me this was after he claimed to lose on consecutive 1 to 47, 2 to 47, and 4 to 47 shots while that guy was dealing (fairly obvious), and similar feats a few days later. He knows that I can spot people bottom-dealing much better than anyone else there, which is what he thinks he's doing.

The question I have is this: If (When) I spot this guy cheating, how should I go about with it? I'm thinking of saying something like "I'd appreciate if you dealt from the top of the deck and kindly quit cheating." I'm not sure.

Suggestions?

You probably need some vagasil.

When you catch him cheating, if you look anything like how you sound in your post you'll get your glasses broken.

Kick him in the nuts...HARD

I don't know if you are aware of this or not, but "Rounders" is a fictional movie.

I don't know if you're aware or not, but anyone who is stealing my money and that of my friends on a regular basis deserves to get his ass kicked 99% of the time :P

He agrees to come with me to other games and deal me aces every time :P

If this were in the OOT I'd say stick it in his pooper. But in this case try to introduce the rotation where left of the dealer shuffles, right of the dealer cuts (or vice versa I can never remember), use a card protector and have a rule that the deck cannot leave the table when dealing. That is the standard answer I've always seen here. If that doesn't work, make him an offer like in casino. He can keep the money and he gets the hammer or he can just walk away.

Map out a plan to break up the game early with your friend if/when cheating is observed, have your friend cancel the game and let someone else host for a month or so - "sans"-peckerhead.

...or just let everyone else in on the suspicion before they arrive and watch the angry mob handle the situation when someone spots the idiot doing something he shouldn't.

If your friend is hosting the game and is uncomfortable he really should get a spine and not invite the guy back.
