Legally, they are correct that game didn't meet the regs but I am still surprised they were told to return the money. I am guessing this will continue to be appealed.
At my age, a "Life In Prison" sentence is not much of a deterrent.

" litigation between the manufacturer and the casino was resolved, but a confidentiality agreement prevents details from being revealed" from the article.
Does anybody have a good guess what this would net the GN?
Seems to me the suit would involve maybe even more than $1.5M unless limited liability comes in. Hard to believe it could be limited to replacement of faulty merchandise.
If GN was found not at fault for losses (unlikely) by failing to notice the un-shuffled cards could casino be trying for a win-win here?
Trying to get the full amount back from the players under the guise of "bad form" could net them a profit. Or at least pay the lawyers...
Don't really know. Any ideas?

As unlikely as it may be, if the cards are randomly shuffled, having them return to their original order is a possible outcome. I did not see any mention of how it was proven that they weren't shuffled initially.

Well, the manufacturer apparently admitted that the cards had not been shuffled (from the FoxNews story):
Quote:The Golden Nugget casino bought what were supposed to be pre-shuffled cards from a Kansas City Manufacturer. The manufacturer did acknowledge it failed to shuffle the cards.
If government is the answer, it must have been a very stupid question.
