Chau, the first of 21 defendants, had rebutted the defense’s evidence during the early stages of the trial, arguing that the evidence provided by the Judicial Police on alleged “betting under the table” activities was rather one-sided.

The more public concern was the prosecution’s allegation that Alvin Chau had conducted betting under the table gambling in 229 Macau VIP rooms, involving more than 40,000 betting under the table activities.
