Two out-of-town gamblers charged last month with cheating at Live Casino Pittsburgh in Hempfield were sentenced Wednesday to serve two years on probation.

Police said Bahri Sahpolat, 47, of California, and Serdar Ozmen, 44, of Maryland, marked playing cards at a Mississippi stud poker table as part of a scheme to improve their winning odds.

According to court records, officials said the men dented cards to gain an advantage and won more than $12,000. The scheme was discovered through surveillance video, officials said.

Both men were originally charged with felony counts of theft, receiving stolen property and criminal trespassing and a misdemeanor charge of use of a cheating device.
