    I love Baccarat.... Every table I go to in that area of Foxwoods is completely Asian and they all give me a look cause i don't use there funny paper to keep track.

    I find blackjack to be much more addicting then baccarat....and cruel

    If only Brock would do this, he would save his family a lot of future pain. And if he has life insurance he will even do them one better.

    Its been attempted by several times in various countries with minimal success. Most casinos have some sort of responsible gaming policy in place. Patrons can bar themselves from casinos if they think they have a problem. Its not the responsibility of the casino to determine if someone has gambling issues. Thus very difficult to prove liability in a court of law.

    zbar, couldn't agree more. However, never underestimate the sheep qualities of a human jury nor a judge on the take.

    it's a shame that anyone would resort to killing himself. because after killing yourself that's when the real problems start for you. WE WILL ALL STAND BEFORE "JESUS CHRIST" .every head shall bow and every tongue shall confess "JESUS CHRIST" is "LORD". for most people that will be a sad day. i pray i am not one of them.

    The casino is hoping that they can keep his winning rather than using it for an insurance settlement.

    He should have just taken what he had left, bought a Smith and Wesson, or a Ruger etc. and went after the people he owed, they would come after him.

    If he was successful then he would be up big bucks and have no one after him anymore.

    If he bricked, then it would be the same outcome.

    Either way...

    Go out in a blaze of Glory!!!

    This is scary. i've read about a guy who snorts oxy's, is a nomad, dog left him, girlfriend left him for someone who dresses up like Grimus for birthday parties on here. I hope the same fate isn't in store for him.
