Here’s D Sucky hustling another sap in Blackjack.
https://youtu.be/939ngzbbSqA
The poor Dolt goes with his betting suggestions even doubles a hard 8 vs dealer 6. Dealer makes 18 and he luckily gets an Ace on the double down to save face.
He then gets dealt 11 vs dealer 10 and doesn’t Double?!? D Lucky half assed suggested he double down but you can’t tell he wasn’t serious and said nothing when the 10 card hit on the 11 for a total of 21. So appears D Sucky is as much of a ploppy as he is a poor man’s Ken Jeong!
Well if you’re going to coach Blackjack it would help first to actually know the rules of the game. D Lucky tells the guy to double down after getting dealt 11 in three cards. Surprised he actually uploaded this video because the dealer has to explain to him (D Lucky) that you can only double on the first two cards.

I'm trying to figure out if this is a gaming violation, but it's probably not.
If El Cortez allows the filming of the play, and if they allow a guy to stand behind and "advise" (no matter how bad), then I can't see the illegality.
But yeah, really bad. Unfortunately El Cortez is a shit property with no standards, so they don't care what this might do to their rep.

This guy was able to get the Wynn Casino to agree to hold a slot tournament in "his name", so he has a way of convincing people. It may be him or someone else is doing the talking for him. Also, it's one of the few casinos in Vegas that is still privately owned, so the rules are much different.
El Cortez has already been notified.
They gave a big yawn and did nothing.
They obviously are happy to take the high limit action brought to them by D Rucky, regardless of how brief and how scammy.
Unfortunately, I don't believe any of this is an NV Gaming violation, so the El Cortez doesn't care.
I can give everyone the same bad advice for a lot less $$$$. I will only charge a beer to standby you when you play black jack and give you the same horrible advice, all the while laughing inside at your stupidity.
I know the El Cortez is a shit hole and doesn’t give a fuck about optics. It’s one thing to have D Lucky do his scam with the slot play and look the other way. This is a fucking table game FFS. The most popular and scrutinized table game there ever has been or ever will be.
To let this Jizz Rag literally record while he is hovering over the fucking table and instructing the mark to bet as high & reckless as possible is truly disgusting. Imagine the majority of people who leave with nothing. How these dealers/pit bosses can’t feel so dirty by it, well they must be without souls. A lot of money is lost in the normal course of casino play but this really takes it to a different level.
Shame on that shit hole.
You may have a point here. I didn't think of this before, but this could be a responsible gambling violation, especially since this chick seems drunk, and this was being done for a commercial/promotional purpose.Quote:

Honestly Druff, I think it would be a huge waste of time. This sort of thing happens EVERY day in EVERY casino around the country.
There are these casino hustlers that literally lurk around tables looking for whales to leech off. They stand behind people who are placing big bets or have big piles of chips in front of them, who are often intoxicated and clueless, and bark orders at them like D Lucky does with the Bonuses and Bets. When they win, they say "See I told ya, I brought you luck, you should be tipping me..." and the sap often does. When they lose, they shrug their shoulders and slink off to find another mark.
I've literally pointed them out to floor managers, who did NOTHING! Their response was usually "Well he's not hurting anyone and the players don't seem to mind?"
Even one guy named Antonio, who does it EVERY day at PA and NY area casinos to the point it's just accepted and nobody says anything. I've even called him out on it and he told me to mind my own business.
So while you may feel compelled to try and ping D Sucky for this type of behavior, it likely won't yield the results you're hoping for! But you can try if you feel confident enough as the main difference being he's not asking for money, yet he's openly filming it for YT views.
Good piece on him on radio and sleezy el cortez.
New D Lucky segment on PFA Radio last night:
https://pokerfraudalert.com/forum/sh...tant!-No-Delay!
Go to the 4:20:13 mark
2:26 D Lucky without hesitation directs the mark to double down on 7 against a 4. This turns a 2K winning hand into a 4K losing hand. 6 K swing. No wonder they don’t mind D Lucky telling these guys what to do.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tx4DrF4RNAI
JeffDime found this and posted in the slot thread, but it needs to be shared in this one as well.
Mr. Handjob is definitely some kind of paid shill here, even though he's denying it. Not only does it sound like a propaganda piece, but he admits to spending 3 hours with D Lucky, which of course is very different from the 10 minutes actual customers get.

Wow. In my 30 years of playing blackjack on-and-off, I've never seen someone double on a hard 7. And I've seen a lot of dumb moves. I've even seen someone stand on 11 (which is worse), but I've never seen someone double on anything less than hard 8.
Amazing.
This makes it clear D Rucky has no idea what he's doing with blackjack, and his suggestion to double on a 3-card 11 in the other video wasn't a joke!
But yeah, once again we see why the sleazy El Cortez allows this. Imagine advising doubling on a 7 and claiming to be a professional gambler.
Ohhh I've seen worse... WAY worse plays than that!Quote:

1) Hard 15 vs Dealer 5. Guy DOUBLES DOWN! The table instantly in unison says "No!!!" He does it anyway, pulls a 10 and dealer flips a King in the hole and catches a 5!
2) Hard 18 vs Dealer 2. A different, yet just as stupid ploppie DOUBLES DOWN! Catches a 2 and starts gloating. Only for the dealer to reveal a Queen in the hole and catch a 9!
3) Old dude has two Face cards vs a Dealer 5... Old dude reaches for more chips and the dealer thinks he wants to Split! But alas, he says "DOUBLE DOWN!" Dealer asks again "Wait, you mean SPLIT right?" Old dude goes "NO, DOUBLE DOWN!" Dealer for the last time says "DOUBLE DOWN, You sure???" Old dude repeats "DOUBLE DOWN, 1 CARD!?!" Dealer calls out to the floor 'Double down on Hard 20!!!" , deals him a card And yea, you pretty much can figure how that ended!
Plus I've also seen fools double on Hard 6 as well. So there's just no telling how far a stupid player will go to try and LOOK smart, even it they cut off their nose to spite their face!
Post Note about the D Sucky Video... Wow just WOW!
1) At about the 4th hand D Sucky forces the mark to bet $100 as a TIP bet for the dealer on each hand!?!? Talk about -EV! Then he gets $25 to bet for the dealer on the SIDE BETS?!?!
No wonder El Cortez lets him perpetrate his scamming ways there. He's milking the marks AND giving action to the dealers. And the very last hand at the 9 minute mark the dealer makes a colossal fuck up and "forgets" to deal herself a card.
Cards run King, Ace on the victim's first two hands, then the dealer skips giving herself a card and puts a 6 on the King and another King card on the Ace. While she has no hole card, effectively making it a Misdeal!
Which happens every day and the protocol is ALWAYS to finish dealing the hand and any laid cards are PLAYED cards. Then they ask the player if he wants to remain in the hand or back out and get his money back. They did None of this.
But D Sucky jumped in and told her, "No the 6 is supposed to be your card!' And she INSTANTLY pulled the 6 off the first played hand of the victim and gave it to HERSELF! That is a HUGE violation and she should have gotten permission from the floor before doing that!
It also changed the Victim's hands from Blackjack and Hard 16 to Hard 20 on the right and ACES (which he then Splits) and gets the Side bet paid out on both hands!
This could be grounds for collusion, however El Cortez probably couldn't give two shits about it and won't bother even reprimanding the dealer. But it's VERY telling about the influence that D Sucky has there!
BedWetterBettor,
Any chance the player caught the hole card in #2 and it was a one-off thing or they just had no concern at all for longevity?
I got to hit on Hard-19 once, maybe it was Hard 18. I was just screwing around because a friend wanted to play, but the card reader told the dealer that the dealer had Blackjack (ten showing), dealer flips the card and it's another ten. Given that I had eighteen or nineteen, I asked for a hit. The dealer didn't know what to do, so called over the supervisor. The supervisor comes over, dealer explains the situation, supervisor says, "Well the house wins anyway."
"Yeah," said the dealer, "But, he wants to hit now and technically he never stood."
I don't remember the resolution specifically as this was many years ago. It was either the supervisor declared no hand or gave me my choice of no hand or taking a card...I'd obviously have chosen no hand.
Too late to edit. Not hole card; I meant next card out in my question @BWB
Yea I figured you meant that.Quote:

Dude instantly started celebrating and bragging that he’s so smart for doing that, and sho nuff, he got beat with the dealer pulling 21 and everyone leaving In Disgust!
Annnnnd D Shitty has now started scamming Celebrities!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rl_avX6eHDc
Brandy's little brother gets REAL quiet when he gets down to the last spin, in fact he misses the "Just Like That" cue and mumbles 'Keep goin'. Lol.
You'd think a rapper would know annoying lyrics well?
He salvages the video with $1500 "jackpot". However at $200 a spin that's hardly anything special, considering the buy-in was $1000!
So $500 profit, from $1500 which gets taxed for around 30%. Then D Sucky's $1795 fee puts old Ray J around -$1600 for the EXPERIENCE!
The guy who got famous for Fucking Kim Kardashian on film, is now getting Monetarily fucked by D Sucky Sucky Fi Dolla!!

You should check out the second video. Firstly, DLucky misidentifies a Top Dollar machine as, "Pinball." The rapper guy then misses the, "Just like that," cue again. After the guy finished up the Top Dollar selection game, DLucky tried to get him to do the, "Just like that," again, but the guy couldn't remember what he was supposed to say and had to ask. Fuck it, it's funny enough that I'll link the stupid video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eOL7Jc9HOg
I wouldn't be shocked if DLucky paid this guy since you guys seem to be saying he has non-zero clout.
im so ashamed of how much i enjoyed this video.Quote:

Sometimes I watch his videos out of interest. In this video at the 2:25 mark for the first time ever he actually says "it's high risk"

That's good to hear him say.Quote:

I'm also a little bit pleased, though surprised, to see that he's not putting people on MH machines with an eye towards pumping up the numbers.
He wouldn't want to pump up the numbers with these people because their play is too short to make a significant impact on a must-hit counter.Quote:

The "it's high risk" remark is probably to provide an excuse that he's attempting to give these people full disclosure. It's all bullshit. They are doing this "experience" with him for $1800 because they think they are getting the fun of an expert showing them how to best win at high limit slots, when in reality he's providing worthless advice. Even if his advice was good, it wouldn't be worth the $1800 they're paying him, given the limited number of spins. It would be different if he were selling a play worth $3k in EV for $1800, just to reduce his own variance of playing himself. (There are people in the AP community who do this by the way, and it's fine provided that they're doing it honestly.)
I'm going to disagree with you on that. If you have a Minor with a $2.50 meter move and there are machines where you can be betting three-digits (I do not know if these specific HL rooms do have), then even a $100 bet pumps the Minor up by forty cents. Major moves are often $6.67, per penny, so again, you can move the big meter about a dime and a half with every yank if such a bet is possible.Quote:

Another aspect to consider is that DSucky could, conceivably, be running multiple people in a day, so the play adds up.
You should also keep in mind that these meters, most likely, wouldn't be starting from base. If I were inclined to run DSucky's grift, which I am absolutely not, it just seems like a good way to sometimes generate some backend EV.
Again, his advice isn't, 'Good,' but it's not bad. HL machines generally have better returns than others and, for -EV play, if your goal is to have a profitable session or to hit a jackpot, then high-risk, high-reward, is actually the best way to achieve that. I don't know that he's necessarily putting people on the highest return machines, other than he's probably not for two reasons:
1.) I don't think he would know.
2.) Video Poker is likely higher return anyway, and then, he could theoretically learn optimal for every game and actually would be offering useful advice.
Anyway, I have to be objective and say the advice itself isn't terrible if a player is goal-oriented and those are the goals. I've offered the same advice on slots, as has Wizard, of course, it's not only free but also comes with the caveat that one would do well not to play slots in the first place.
i hate this guy
https://youtube.com/shorts/NMREB6b3QV8?feature=share
soooooo, what's become of this pos?
not sure about the story of this.... was pretty good acting in the beginning and believable up until the end... and maybe some sort of AI generated voice from inputs of
D Lucky's real voice that they got from actual videos or something ??
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwQBgw3Xv0M
i'm in vegas and spoke with a big time youtube content creator who said D-Rucky is now at MGM doing his bullshit. presumably, wynn got fed up.
Yeah that video from Mike Malone sucks. Why do a phony D-Lucky "exposure" when the real story is interesting enough to make a video about?
Everything seen in Malone's video is fake, and the D-Lucky voice is not his, though it's a decent attempt at impersonation.
When you spread falsehoods about scammers like this, they can point their victims to it as proof that "haters are out to get them", and it muddies the message not to trust these con artists.
The best approach with guys like D-Lucky and Christopher Mitchell is to simply hammer them with the unflattering truth.
Should get some good Karma for letting her know.
@BWB is right on I saw this parody maybe a year ago. It was obvious from the beginning. I can’t tell if Malone believes it or is trolling. It gets views. But Malone just comes off like a total moron here. Agree with Druff, more harm than good.

Granted he doesn’t say that HE won the money, but he acts like he was there or witnessed it by posting it on his shitty channel! Isn’t there a YT rule against copyright infringement or using other people’s videos on your channel for the purpose of click bait?
Won’t post the link here, but if you feel like reporting please do!
Funny how Vital Vegas is bashing D Lucky (good) yet being careful to defend the casinos enabling him (bad):

That's crazy if D Lucky really gave away $10,000 of this dude's money without asking him. Maybe he asked him off camera if this was okay, and "suggested" this ridiculous tip. Otherwise D Lucky has no right to give away the guy's money.
D Lucky likely wants the casino employees tipped generously on these jackpots, so they continue tolerating this bullshit scheme he has going on.
