holy ****

that's terrible

That's disgusting.

I'm speechless !

I will never play at the Rio after hearing this, and I hope that otheres follow suit.

Would have dropped my pants and taken a **** directly on the center of the table.


No but really that is horrible. So many horror stories from cash at the rio this year. I can tell you when I go back next year I will not be playing there.

This sucks. Theres
Really nothing you can do aside from never play at rio again. How does rio not have auto shufflers?

Really gross man. I'd like to think that if a deck had more than 53 or 54 cards, the dealer would be able to feel that something was off, but with the dealers at the WSOP this year, who knows.

Hope you ran better for the rest of the series...

Do you know how much those shufflers cost? Do you realize how many tables were there set up for the WSOP?

Why the hell is this being posted now?

If this gets up during the WSOP maybe someone can help, but now it will be a bunch of "sorry bro".

Obv really messed up situation.

The mob should have surrounded that Floor and demanded he pull the deck from his pocket and count it. What a chit ruling.

The other option is they keep using their apparently inept dealers and running their reputation into the ground. Then they won't have to worry about setting up all of those tables because no one will come there to play.



bahahaha. i have the mental image of a mob of poker players surrounding a floor man, chanting 'deck' or something and then perhaps dismembering him in the process of retrieving the faulty deck. one of the players finally finds it and holds it up revealing 6 aces, which sends the crowd into a further blood-lusting rage. the rio is dismantled and set on fire, crowds of innocent people running for their lives. somewhere in the back, gil hits the 250k jackpot on a slot machine as the roof caves in on his head.

Does the rio suck this much year round or is it only at WSOP time?

Not the first time this happened either...somewhere here, there's a thread with picture of two people flopping nut flushes....AKspades vs. AQspades. Also at the Rio. Live poker rigged IMO.

Yeah there was an extra jack in the deck, but its hard to rig quad 6's. The reason is that almost always, one is going to be a duplicate. Its unlikely that with all 4 6's showing that there was an extra 6 since you are seeing all four suits.

The floor person obviously realized that pocketing the deck limits how many people see the rigged deck and how incompetent they are. There was another B&M forum thread talking about duplicate cards. It must be fairly common place at the Rio this time of year from peoples reactions. The fact that the RIO let the player leave though is really really bad. The fact that you were not shown the deck after obviously realizing that it was faulty was also really bad.

My condolences Bro, sucks

The nut flushes thread mentioned above was the one I was talking about.

It continues to seem more and more that the RIO is a haven for angel shooters and card sharps.

I would be furious just like OP, but I agree that the presence of an extra J wouldn't factor into the quads hand. I think the Rio floor should have shown OP the deck privately.

If you put 53 or more cards in an autoshuffler does it signal anything or mess up?

Yes, autoshufflers would catch too many/few cards but this is the Rio cash games during the WSOP. They are hand shuffled.

Yes, it wont give the green light unless there are exactly 52 cards. I guess the only flaw could be that they don't recognize which 52 cards but still much better than this, obv

before our casino went to auto shufflers, each half hour when a new dealer sat down, he had to count down the deck before starting. Don't they do that at the Rio?

As far as letting the guy who won the 10k hand leave, what else could they do? The problem was discovered two orbits later. Were they going to try and reconstruct every hand dealt from the bad deck, and give everyone their starting stacks back? Not likely. You can't invalidate one hand without doing it for all of them.

Crappy situation for sure, and apparently not unusual for the Rio during the WSOP.
