Counting cards is so overrated. Also impossible with an electronic shuffler.

The most common way to 'cheat' or to commit fraud at a BJ table is to cap your bet.

So if you're betting $100 and get dealt a good hand you try and slip an extra $100 on top when the dealer isn't looking.

Not saying that's what happened. It's just the most likely scenario for fraud.

While it's true that Esi'Esi and Pangai Jnr have definitely overtaken him as preferred first graders this year, calling him a fraud is going a bit far.

Mitchell Pearce on the other hand...

He couldn't have been counting cards. Counting cards is neither illegal, nor fraud. It is just a skill that casinos don't want to let you use because it takes away their advantage.

Its been reported that he won a hand and was busted chucking an extra $100 chip in onto his stack to get more back.

Which incident? Hard to keep track.

There was an incident where a broncos player openly took a slash in a casino. I think it was during an Origin camp (like 04-05). He didn't get dropped from Origin, and Benny swept it under the carpet. Gorden Tallis came out rippin on Bennett for not disciplining his players after that.
