A 66-year-old man was sentenced to 12 months in a Singaporean prison after pleading guilty to colluding with three croupiers to cheat in three-card poker at the Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) casino.
According to The Straights Times, Singaporean national Chua Lai Huat plead guilty to 10 of the 36 counts to District Judge Lee Poh Choo.
The scheme is reported to have involved Chua marking aces and kings in the deck used during the game, which are deemed some of the game's most valuable cards. He is then alleged to have recruited three different croupiers to flash the last card in the game, which is helpful for a player to decide whether or not to continue with their hand.
