The latest of the 30 for 30 podcasts is about the Ivey edge sorting cases.

It focuses more on the Chinese accomplice but she has quite an interesting story.

"The concept of dishonesty is central to a whole range of offences, including fraud."


says lawyer seriously worried about getting paid....

It was a bit odd that the judges went into a wider area, given that they say it didn't matter in Ivey's case (I might be wrong as I just skimmed to the end of the judgement)

Therefore in the present case, if, contrary to the conclusions arrived at above,
there were in cheating at gambling an additional legal element of dishonesty, it
would be satisfied by the application of the test as set out above. The judge did not
get to the question of dishonesty and did not need to do so
. But it is a fallacy to
suggest that his finding that Mr Ivey was truthful when he said that he did not regard
what he did as cheating amounted to a finding that his behaviour was honest. It was
not. It was a finding that he was, in that respect, truthful. Truthfulness is indeed one
characteristic of honesty, and untruthfulness is often a powerful indicator of
dishonesty, but a dishonest person may sometimes be truthful about his dishonest
opinions, as indeed was the defendant in Gilks. For the same reasons which show
that Mr Ivey’s conduct was, contrary to his own opinion, cheating, the better view
would be, if the question arose, that his conduct was, contrary to his own opinion,
also dishonest

In today's Observer: does Phil Ivey ever really lose...? I'm thinking it through like a poker hand.
