    Pretty amazing. Guy obviously has some tricks up his sleeves. Probably wasn't the best idea to publicize how much he has been taking casinos for.

    When you win that much in such a short time, well, it's kind of hard to keep it quiet because, one way or another, the word gets out. But after winning THAT much, getting banned is a moot point now; he has won his money for a lifetime from the casinos and the deed is done.

    Even if he wasn't counting cards, just the fact he won big money is enough for them to just not accept him back. Of course, this would hurt the casinos because people can understand banning card counters but they won't understand banning big winners which would go against the image that casinos have carefully crafted and maintained.

    Seems unlikely that someone would win over $20 million in two weeks...

    I call BS

    The guy's wins are reflected on official reports the casinos are required to submit to the gambling authorities. So I tend to believe it is real.

    Those whale type numbers tend to happen in baccarat where all the super rich asians gather, never heard of such a big blackjack win though.

    Talked to a couple dealers when I was down there - he plays 3 hands at a time $100,000 a hand. He rarely tips and is despised by the dealers. He loses a lot too, but that does not get pubicity.

    I am thinking he won't share with Tubbs. In fact, I never did think Tubbs was convincing. Ving would have been much better partner or Sam Jackson.

    Greatest marketing gimmick in the world. Let one guy win $15 million so that 50,000 sheep could come to the casino and lose $1,000 each.

    He won at the Borgata, Trop, and Ceasars. Took about 5 mill from each casino. Ceasars and Borgata can handle it, but he put a real hurtin on the Trop. They actually reported BlackJack loss for the month.

    Agree there, if he was counting he would have been long gone before the first million, he got lucky, and they know he will lose it all back.
