A seven-count indictment unsealed in Brooklyn outlines a high-tech illegal gambling operation that involved 31 people, including two Georgian men. The scheme involved players using rigged shuffling machines, marked cards, and hidden technology to fix underground poker games in New York City, the Hamptons, and other cities across the US. The goal was to cheat unsuspecting players out of millions of dollars and funnel the money to La Cosa Nostra’s Bonanno, Gambino, and Genovese crime families. Federal agents arrested all 31 defendants in coordinated raids across 11 states early Thursday. Two Georgian men, Tony “Black Tony” Goodson and John “John South” Mazzola, are accused of helping supply the technology used to rig poker games.
