The poker cheating investigation is over. Here's what it uncovered — and questions that remain
LOS ANGELES — A nearly three-month investigation into one of the most controversial hands of poker ever played has concluded with no findings of wrongdoing against Robbi Jade Lew, who was accused of cheating by one of the game's most prominent stars.
"That does not mean that no wrongdoing occurred," said the 12-page report, released Wednesday by High Stakes Poker Productions. "It means that the investigation failed to find credible evidence."
The saga began Sept. 29, when Lew — a relatively new player to the high-stakes no-limit scene — won a $269,000 pot against poker pro Garrett Adelstein on an episode of "Hustler Casino Live," a popular YouTube show that streams from Gardena five days a week.
Lew's unconventional play in the wild hand, in which she called Adelstein's her of colluding with at least one other player at the table and with a production employee; Lew has repeatedly denied the allegations.
