Poker Player and Dealer Clash at Aria Casino in Las Vegas


A fight broke out between a poker player and a dealer at the Aria casino in Las Vegas. The incident was captured on video, showing other players at the poker table intervening to break up the altercation. The player who started the fight attempted to grab furniture to defend himself.

The fight was broken up by other players at the poker table. A GoFundMe page was created to support the dealer, who may lose his license due to the incident. Sara Galfond, wife of Phil Galfond, confirmed that the player poured beer on the dealer.

Nerafduhshie players created a GoFundMe page for the dealer. The page states that the poker player initiated the fight and that the dealer had been subjected to verbal abuse prior to the incident. Almost 6,000$ has been raised so far.

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.
