Default Article On Casino Treatment Of Winning Player

Casinos apparently don't want advantage players. And the police in Las Vegas help the casinos. Not surprising I suppose, but I am surprised at how far they went in this case. web page

From the article: "A judge threw out a conviction against an advantage gambler and professional personal trainer who was convicted earlier this year of disorderly conduct for allegedly resisting arrest while being detailed...."

Heck, if I was being detailed in broad daylight in the middle of a casino floor I'd be screaming too. Unless of course I was being detailed by Pam Anderson, then I might request the Cordoba hot wax treatment complete with a blow dry! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Metro has had problems for an awful long time(I lived in Vegas for three years in the late 80's)in remenbering who they are actually supposed to be "protecting".Vegas is a great place,but the police need a wake up call.They are not security for the casinos.

It could have been worse they could have cracked his knuckles with a sledgehammer like in Casino. I hope he gets a 6 figure settlement.
