Default Re: Detecting a form of cheating

I've watched his eyes.. and he noticed really fast when I was looking at him, even when it wasn't a direct stare, and even when I wasn't in the hand. He watches the dealer's hands a lot during the deal, and he has a tendency to lean fairly far back, both of which improve any angle to view cards. It wouldn't surprise me if he knew some cards went to some places in some hands. I've noticed that the dealer doesn't keep the top of the stub perfectly aligned- it's not far off, but it's possible that it's visible from a perfect angle/if the dealer tilts it.

Please explain what you meant by rolling the deck- I'm visualizing the dealer dealing the flop, fanning the top cards out a little as he brings the stub back, tilting them so the player can see, and then undoing the fan. It's hard to tell if he's looking at the flop or the dealer's hands when they're still pretty close together, but I'll try to track that better.
