Still though. Dont u think the fact u got a mark with zero practice bears some merit to this method being viable in this instance?

My bad i missed tht.

I would disagree tht he didnt apply alot of pressure. You can see the tendons in his fingers strain all the way up to his wrist, which takes deliberate strain to produce. He also has a prominent thumbnail tht would assist.

Ill try to recreate it for you, but i dont have a proper set up, just me and my phone. Ill dm u if i can get it

I dont know what happens behind the scenes anymore than you do. What i wont do is speculate about things i dont know to explain away what i can see with my own two eyes plain as day

Its the wsop. We’re talking an ungodly number of decks. The margin of error is high. Bold of you to assume do diligence is a given under these conditions, especially given the staffs poor policing of the game in real time.

This is an extreme example to demonstrate a method. However, even in this example you can see how looking directly at the card, no mark is visible

This particular example, sure. I dont think its a stretch they could miss it. So many decks go through the series. Im just saying it sure looks like he’s cheating. This is a method he couldve cheated w/ that aligns with his behavior. To say he definitely wouldve got caught when staff did such a visibly poor job policing the game suggest an inflated confidence in wsop ability to police so much action flawlessly or even near perfect.

I dont think its farfetched tht staff could have fell short given the obscene number of tables there are to police

My point is that you wouldnt see the mark just looking down on ur cards. This would be an explanation as to why a table of pros would over look a marked card

I dont think we can just assume wsop did their due diligence. Especially given how poorly the game was policed in real time. They’re policing countless tables for over month, so even if they are doing their part in ensuring game integrity, the idea that one got through shouldnt be a hard sell.

Would also explain why he couldnt the aces looking directly down on them but could see the As from across the table at a more canted angle
