hmm, we really don't know the story, it either this: Phil really likes to win more so he cheated, or Borgata is so bitter with Phil's win they accused Phil of cheating.

I'll go with bitter.
DeleteAccusing someone of cheating is a pretty strong allegation for a casino to make, especially when all the guy really did was look at the cards that they put on the table.
