You MADE me gamble...

The Gambler Who Blew $127 Million - WSJ.com

"During a year-long gambling binge at the Caesars Palace and Rio casinos in 2007, Terrance Watanabe managed to lose nearly $127 million.

The run is believed to be one of the biggest losing streaks by an individual in Las Vegas history."

"In a civil suit filed in Clark County District Court last month, Mr. Watanabe, 52 years old, says casino staff routinely plied him with liquor and pain medication as part of a systematic plan to keep him gambling."

They never did this to me. Sheesh, I blew $200 at the poker table in an hour there last time out and I didn't get so much as a 'lude for my troubles. Clearly I'm doin' it wrong.
