On September 27, 1865, gambler Kane McLoughlin paid William Wansley USD100 to ensure that the Brooklyn Eckfords would beat the Mutuals of New York. This is an account of subsequent gambling and game fixing scandals. Attention is focused on the best known incidents but the lesser known scandals are covered in-depth as well.
