美赌客连赢41把 遭赌场起诉
<p>美国新泽西州大西洋城的一家赌场日前对14位赌客提起诉讼，称赌客玩百家乐时用的八副牌未经洗牌，由此，其赢得的150多万美元应为非法所得。据悉，这14名赌客在玩百家乐时发现，牌桌上用的8副扑克牌一直都没有洗牌，而是在按相同的顺序不断循环出现。于是，他们将筹码从10美元提高到5000美元，然后连赢了41把。就在他们赢得的筹码越变越大时，赌场安保人员发现了异常并怀疑这些赌客有作弊行为，但他们无法判定赌客是如何操作的。最终，赌场只兑付了60万美元的筹码，并坚称这些赌客的赢钱行为对赌场不公。不过，14名赌客的代理律师则表示其当事人完全没有错，他指出，新泽西州没有任何一条法律规定因赌场工作人员没有洗牌而导致赌客赢钱是非法的。</p><p><span word="A">A</span> <span word="US">US</span> <span word="casino">casino</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="suing">suing</span> 14 <span word="gamblers">gamblers</span> <span word="after">after</span> <span word="eight">eight</span> <span word="card">card</span> <span word="decks">decks</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="not">not</span> <span word="been">been</span> <span word="shuffled">shuffled</span> <span word="properly">properly</span>, <span word="resulting">resulting</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="winnings">winnings</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="more">more</span> <span word="than">than</span> $1.5<span word="m">m</span>.</p><p><span word="Golden">Golden</span> <span word="Nugget">Nugget</span> <span word="Atlantic">Atlantic</span> <span word="City">City</span> <span word="Casino">Casino</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="Atlantic">Atlantic</span> <span word="City">City</span>, <span word="New">New</span> <span word="Jersey">Jersey</span>, <span word="is">is</span> <span word="refusing">refusing</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="pay">pay</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="gamblers">gamblers</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="winnings">winnings</span> <span word="as">as</span> <span word="it">it</span> <span word="maintains">maintains</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="game">game</span> <span word="was">was</span> <span word="illegal">illegal</span>.</p><p><span word="The">The</span> 14 <span word="gamblers">gamblers</span> <span word="realized">realized</span> <span word="eight">eight</span> <span word="decks">decks</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="playing">playing</span> <span word="cards">cards</span> <span word="had">had</span> <span word="not">not</span> <span word="been">been</span> <span word="shuffled">shuffled</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="were">were</span> <span word="repeating">repeating</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="sequences">sequences</span>. <span word="In">In</span> <span word="light">light</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="this">this</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="increased">increased</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="bets">bets</span> <span word="from">from</span> $10 <span word="to">to</span> $5,000, <span word="winning">winning</span> 41 <span word="consecutive">consecutive</span> <span word="hands">hands</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="baccarat">baccarat</span>.</p><p><span word="As">As</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="group">group</span> <span word="continued">continued</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="win">win</span> <span word="increasingly">increasingly</span> <span word="more">more</span> <span word="substantial">substantial</span> <span word="amounts">amounts</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="money">money</span> <span word="casino">casino</span> <span word="security">security</span> <span word="began">began</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="suspect">suspect</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="individuals">individuals</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="cheating">cheating</span>.</p>
