all of vegas had house dealers as most games were raked. in cal. games were time by law so why would the house pay for a dealer. so everyone dealt themselves until about 1982 when house dealers started showing up in places that didnt need the cheaters for shills. when holdem became around 1982 legal all of the cal. cheaters got broke trying to play holdem. it was a total joke as they were the best live ones in the bigger games. only a very few made the transition. the millions they stole playing 20 dollar limit and some bigger games later on went to the honest holdem players. justice takes a long time but in the end.....
