Travis Scott's Former NYC Rental Linked to NBA Gambling Scandal

Federal indictments have revealed a widespread gambling scheme involving rigged poker games held at various locations, including a Manhattan townhouse once rented by Travis Scott. The scheme allegedly involved members of the Gambino and Genovese crime families, who used former NBA stars to attract high-rollers. These games utilized hidden technology, such as rigged card-shuffling machines and X-ray tables, to cheat players out of millions of dollars.

The townhouse at 80 Washington Place, in Greenwich Village, served as one of the primary locations for these illicit activities. While Travis Scott resided there, the illegal poker games reportedly took place without his or Kylie Jenner's knowledge. The property's connection to both a celebrity and organized crime has drawn significant media attention.

The investigation uncovered that the gambling ring had been operating since 2019, leading to charges against over 30 individuals. The involvement of NBA players and Mafia figures highlights the scope and complexity of the scandal.

No, there is no indication that Travis Scott or Kylie Jenner had any knowledge of or involvement in the illegal poker games.

The townhouse was allegedly used as one of the primary locations for the rigged high-stakes poker games.

According to reports, the poker games occurred between January 2021 and October 2023.
