I'm sorry to hear that. Many years ago, I worked for a while as a blackjack dealer, and I saw some things I'd rather not have seen. (That's why I quit.) I do know how gambling addictions ruin lives – though, of course, nothing I saw was on this scale.
I just can't help marvelling at a guy who took the trouble to find someone who would take his marker for $26 million. It takes effort to dig a hole that deep.
