Ivey Sues Crockfords Over Frozen Punto Banco Winnings, Casino Alleges Unfair Play
Phil Ivey’s August 2012 visit to London’s upscale Crockfords Casino has evolved into a legal battle in the wake of Crockfords’ continued freeze on Ivey’s ?7.8 million (US $12.1 million) in winnings over two nights of play. Ivey logged the huge win at a variation of baccarat called punto banco over two nights of play, only to have the casino refund his original ?1m stake, but decline to pay out the winnings. Ivey filed a lawsuit in early May, with Crockfords officials quickly responding via the British press that Ivey and an unnamed female companion conspired to take advantage of improperly cut cards featuring a “full bleed” design, which, when rotated allowed Ivey and his companion to identify important cards before they were dealt. The dispute appears destined for a full court trial.

I think this is hilarious and it will probably be 10 years before it ever gets to court.
