Chauncey Billups allegedly scored $50,000 from one of the rigged poker games authorities say he participated in several years ago.
Federal prosecutors wrote in new court documents TMZ Sports has obtained that, back in October 2020, Billups was rewarded with the cash after he helped a group of alleged crooks swindle someone out of loads of dough by cheating during a game of high stakes cards.
The feds claim the scheme Billups and his co-conspirators cooked up involved advanced technology -- such as tampered-with deck shufflers and X-ray tables -- as well as players subtly working with one another to gang up on their victim.
