After getting the floorman involved and shouting "what are ya gonna do, take me to small claims court?" he bragged to us about how he has done the same thing at least a dozen times to different people.

I fail to understand why people keep falling for these types of scams.
Sick bump indeed, I play live in Iowa and a few months ago we had a guy move here who claimed to be a former MLB player who used to regularly play 40/80 at Commerce. He rolled through about 20k playing 2/5 in a month before he self-banned himself. If he got shortstacked he would just start shoving blind repeatedly until he busted and then rebought.

Edit: Googled a pic and it was definitely not Denny Mclain.

Re: Jean-Robert @ the Wynn

Kinda funny how it taking over 2 months to pay back is considered stand-up by JRB, but hey, I suppose I wish lotta people that owe me were even THAT stand-up.
