GT accussed Luda Chris of cheating after he cracked his Aces with 8h6h in a suspicous hand. Was GT only a sore loser or is there something to the accusations?
The aggrieved player is known as “GT” and he was up against Chris “Luda Chris” Chen, who is reasonably well-known and has appeared numerous times on Hustler Casino Live.
The game was $25/$50 and the hand started off with a bunch of early position limps followed by a raise to $1,000 from GT with his aces.
Luda Chris was one of the limpers, and he decided to back raise with 8h6h to $6,000 after Fransico called with pocket tens.
Did Luda Chris cheat in this poker hand or not?
GT ponders a short while and decides not to slow play, preferring to raise it up to $19,000. Fransico folds his tens and Luda Chris calls off one third of his stack with the speculative hand.
The flop came down Ks 8d 8c and GT bets $15,000 into the pot of $55,175. Luda calls.
The Jd comes on the turn and both players check.
The river is the 7s and Luda jams his remaining $32,225 into the middle. GT calls it off without too much thought and clearly wasn’t happy to see what his opponent flipped over.
This hand is not suspicious. It has 0 in common with J4. And I am not responsible for the reputation of HCL—they made their own bed.
That being said, I specifically chose to avoid playing in games with Luda despite how poorly he played. Former LATB owners and Bicycle Casino…

Is There Any Evidence of Cheating?
As reality kicked in, GT started to show his anger, even encouraging people to check Luda Chris for anything beeping on his body.
He then says he’s not playing with “you guys” anymore, adding that the game is rigged. He continued his tirade saying that he was warned about going back to play in the Hustler Casino Live game.
“Too much of a coincidence to be a coincidence”, GT said before letting it sink in over two more orbits and walking away.
So, did anyone else think something might be amiss? Not at the table it seems, but one Garrett Adelstein did have a bit to say in the Twitter thread.
It turns out that Luda was one of the few players, maybe the only one, that GMan did not want to play with on Hustler Casino Live.
It turns out that Luda is banned from Live at the Bike after winning a monstrous amount in a game that plays 20x bigger than his regular $5/$5 table. Make of that what you will.
After butting heads with Ryan Feldman over a series of tweets, Adelstein cryptically said he’d be happy to chat about home games and online apps games next.
Feldman responded that he’d be happy to discuss all of this with him on a public podcast in the future. We look forward to seeing if this will happen!
