Robbi Jade Lew Hits Out At Garrett Adelstein On Twitter After He Accuses Her Of Cheating As She Wins $270,000 Poker Pot
Garrett blocked me. Guilty as charged. What an honest man. He cornered me & threatened me. If he has the audacity to give me the death stare ON camera, picture what it’s like OFF camera. I was pulled out of the game & forced to speak to him in a dark hallway. Full details to come

Best concise summary of events. Notes:
-She several times states she wasn’t threatened (HCL & @Joeingram1 vids both), then tweets that she was anyway.
-Vibrating device in her pocket @berkey11 podcast
-Only right I accept her HU4ROLLZ while retweeting Doug. https://t.co/CooJ8UW3Is— Garrett Adelstein (@GmanPoker) September 30, 2022
Robbi has refuted the claims, and Garrett has since stepped out to provide a complete account of his side of the story.
WHAT OCCURRED DURING THE GAME?
According to DraftKings Nation, Garrett placed a $10,000 wager, which Robbi then increased to $20,000 to begin the game. Garrett answered with an additional $109,000.
According to the source, there are around 150 ways Lew may be behind, six ways to be ahead. And it would cost more than twice as much to call. Of course you are aware of what takes place here since we are writing about it.
Robbi, though, “run it again” and called in the $109,000.
According to the article, in this scenario, the player with the best hand after both rivers would either win the entire pot or they would divide it.
Robbi succeeded in faking both rivers, taking home the entire $270,000 cash.
REACTION TO THE DRAMA FROM GARRETT
Garrett remarked on Twitter that he wouldn’t have accepted the refund if he didn’t think he had been taken advantage of after the live stream.
He stated: “I would not have accepted the return if I thought there was a chance I wasn’t being taken advantage of. I would never, ever accept the refund if there was even the slightest possibility that she decided to return the $135k to me for any reason other than an admission of guilt.
On her Twitter profile, Robbi has debunked the claims of cheating in the interim.
Hustler Casino promised to look into the matter and launch an investigation. According to the casino, each participant won’t make an appearance on their show until everything has been resolved in full.
