If Ivey could prove that the casino cheated him out of that money,
the house would have no option but to return his stake money.
Gamblers seldom see two sides to this story.
A sloppy dealer exposing a hole card is a different situation.
However, with regard to the gambler's motivation to enter the casino in the
first place, there may be parallels. A person who seeks out weak dealers
to supplement his/her income, and only plays when they can gain that edge,
shouldn't expect to be allowed to remain on a casino blackjack table very long.
Likewise, only entering a high stakes gambling establishment when you have
inside knowledge of a flaw in the manufacture of the playing cards, doesn't give
you the right to turn that casino into your personal ATM machine.
Case closed.
