Le jury se prononce contre Caesars Palace et Griffin Investigations
Posté leThe James Grosjean and Michael Russo case against Caesars Palace and Griffin Investigations is done, and the jury ruled in favor of Grosjean and Russo, awarding $100,000 in actual damages. Caesars chose to settle with the plaintiffs before the punitive damage portion of the jury deliberations, but Griffin did not. The jury awarded an additional $25,000 to the plaintiffs from defendant Griffin for punitive damages.
For those unfamiliar with the case, Grosjean and Russo were legally hole-carding at the game of three card poker, and were detained by Caesars and accused of card-bending, based on their listings in Griffin Investigations subscription-based service for casinos. Griffin was found by the jury to have been guilty of libel and defamation for having listed the two as cheats with no evidence.

I was put on a data base for advantage players recently I believe it is called Oregon state surveillance or something along that line. It is a national data base. Does anyone know if you can do anything about that? Any thoughts out there? Thanks
Probably not much to be done. These databases are pretty much one-way. In my experience, once you’re listed, you’re listed. The good news is that virtually every pro I know has made a lot more money in the years after they were in Griffin than before. It’s not as fatal as it sounds.
J'ai été signalé au Borgata il y a près de dix ans, puis au Caesars. À ce jour, j'ai joué dans la plupart des grands casinos et je n'ai jamais été raccompagné. Bien qu'il existe des "listes" dans tout le pays, certains casinos ne sont pas aussi "stricts" que d'autres. Les casinos tribaux du Connecticut en sont un parfait exemple. J'ai passé 9 mois dans l'un d'entre eux et je les ai pris pour 250 000 euros. De plus, leurs comps étaient excellents à l'époque. Je savais qu'il y avait des moments où je me faisais écraser, alors j'y allais doucement. Outre la discipline du suivi, vous devriez toujours envisager de parier à l'unité, ce qui vous aidera à dissimuler votre avantage.
