Anargyros Karabourniotis was always considered as a real professional poker player, and his name was well-known to the poker world. However, he had been arrested for using the marked playing cards in a California casino.
Many people who supported him felt shock after reading this news. Karas made his name to the world for turning a stake of $50 into a $40 million fortune during a three-year winning streak in the early 90s.
Some one found that Karas marked cards by swiping them over a hollowed-out gambling chip that contained dye during the July.
What is more! Prosecutors say the dye helped Karas identify the value of cards in the game and cheat the casino out of $8,000. Blackjack is won by obtaining cards that add up closest to the value of 21 without going over.
If he know how to buy the best marked cards, he would not be caught, what a sad story. As you know the IR marked cards and the UV marked cards are not the safest now. Some one just knows how to check them by simple methods. So if you don’t want anyone to tell the difference between marked card and original one, you should buy the best marked cards. |
