Terrible

one has millions
One does not

I doubt Billy Walters posts at forums and books for points with other posters.

You don't believe Billy has millions?

Inside info?

If Billy Walters, while impaired, tries blatantly to pickup the cute girlfriend of a star NHL player at the checkout of a late night supermarket, then they indeed have a lot in common.

Switch that.

one makes money and the other dives in dumpsters

**VegasVixen** · 01-17-11, 06:32 PM

Any idea what prompted him to do the segment? I mean they said he's so paranoid about "security", why do a segment on 60 Mins?

He has so much money nowadays, he did it just so they would say on 60 minutes that he is the most feared gambler of all time. Huge ego boost. Guys like that need attention and praise. Take it away and it crushes them.

I would be willing to bet that Walters has never dived in a dumpster but has had plenty of people diving in his dumpster.

thats most likely right. but he did say he did it to show that gamblers arent any worse than the crocks on Wall Street

**MinnesotaFats** · 01-17-11, 08:05 PM

Yeah at the end they suggested he agreed to do and promote the segment to take a shot at Wall Street and to give a hand to Nevada (which of course is getting killed in this economy).

While you guys are making fukkin pyramids with bear cans during games Billy and Fishhead charting everything, taking notes and pounding game numbers.

both have huge egos ,
but one has a reason to have a huge ego.

**yisman** · 01-17-11, 09:17 PM

More differences than similarities.

My guess is he can't, exactly, become a regular at 1 casino.
You know, the one with the best line, per se.

If it was me, and I was that good and had to move that kind of money and have to hire guys to wager,
10 cent to 5 cent lines would have to be too much of a distraction at certain times.
Or maybe that's critical- I really don't know.
I'm just guessing.

Imagine the guys on his payroll betting a $50,000-$500,000 wager.
These guys gotta cash these tickets.
Possibly pay taxes.
The guys doing the footwork gotta get broke off a chunk.

I'll never get that rich and that involved.
It's interesting to think about.

I do agree with his end message where he feels Wall Street investing is more crooked and sports gambling is not as "shady" as it's made out to be.

It was fun to watch.
