Nik Airball Accuses Hustler Casino Live Player Mars of Cheating in High-Stakes Game


Nik Airball and Wesley Fei have publicly accused another Hustler Casino Live player, Mars, of rigging a high-stakes private game in Southern California to the tune of millions of dollars. Nik Airball accused Hustler Casino Live player Mars of cheating in a high-stakes private poker game, resulting in a loss of $1 million.

Wesley Fei also accused Mars of cheating, claiming that Mars used a special deck of cards that were see-through with special contacts. If Airball’s theory is correct, this sounds more like something from a James Bond scene than reality. Trick cards and contacts from Q department to be able to read which card is which is almost too cheeky to try and pull off.

Mars is thought to have won as much as $1.6 million from the game during 2023. Wesley Fei invited Mars to his $400k per night villa at Caesars Palace to confront him over the scandal. Hustler Casino Live co-founder Nick Vertucci stated that he was not aware of the cheating allegations.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
