(NewsNation) — Prosecutors revealed more details about a massive poker scheme that utilized “cheating technology" and led to the indictment of more than 30 people, including Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat player Terry Rozier.
Government attorneys laid out how unknowing victims were scammed out of thousands in rigged poker games such as "Texas Hold’em" in places including Manhattan, Las Vegas and Miami.
These schemes happened in part with "wireless cheating technology," complex communication and violence, filings stated.
They also occurred with the help of sports stars like Billups and former NBA assistant coach Damon Jones who were the “Face Cards” that attracted victims to the games because of their status as former professional athletes, filings stated.
