A sophisticated poker fraud scheme involving former NBA players and mafia members has been uncovered, where high-tech equipment like X-ray tables and special glasses were used to cheat wealthy gamblers out of millions. Prosecutors described the operation as akin to a Hollywood movie, with over 30 arrests made in connection to the scam that took place across several US cities. The scheme exploited unsuspecting victims, referred to as "fishes," who believed they were playing fair games with celebrities.
