I do know a bit about poker though and can't possibly see anyway in which that lady was cheating. The only possible way it would make sense is if she somehow knew the turn and river (X2) cards before the dealer turned them over. I can't think of any scenario where that could have been the case so I think this is much ado about nothing. The call made no sense, but I've had people make calls like that before (not for $270k, bit I digress) on me. It's poker, there is no one way to play. The guy should give her the money back, it sounds like he strong armed her out of it, I'm guessing that #### wouldn't have occurred had the player been another male as opposed to a female....but I could be wrong about that.
I know nothing about Poker, so take my opinion with a grain of salt, I am also, by any metric, a very poor Gambler. However I gamble occasionally for the lulz.

I would say that I have won more often by making an unpredictable, panicky, stupid move than I have through thoughtful and careful consideration of the odds.

Yeah...I mean, this could just be the tip of the cheating iceberg.
