Wow.
Lots to say about this one.
First off, not only doesn't he deny it, but I think this was intentional.
He quickly showed this screen shot from the Rio's system:
Notice the top four lines. He got paid on July 1, and then got paid again on July 14.
He says that it had to do with his payout ticket (which they give to all people who cash at the WSOP) not initially being collected, which means the second wasn't a default payout. He actually showed up with it again and collected the money a second time.
There's no chance this was a mistake.
He cashed only 3 times at the 2018 WSOP: http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=101781
The $4938 cash was his final one, on June 27.
It looks likely that he decided to take a shot at redeeming the cash again 13 days after he did it the first time, and it worked.
Then some auditor found it and locked his account until he paid the money back.
I'm very surprised the consequences were so light.
This was clearly intentional. It's not like he can claim he had 13 cashes and got confused. He cashed THREE TIMES the entire WSOP, and this was his biggest one. He definitely didn't get confused.
If I were Caesars, I would have banned his ass for life.
However, I also know that the WSOP is very social media wary (they don't like having visible people on poker social media bashing them), so it's possible Boski (real name Jeff Sluzinski) got a pass based upon his highly popular vlog.
LOL at giving the guy a $100 food voucher for paying back the money he scammed from them.
Unbelievable.
