Have a Building with Michael Jackson

In other Vegassy business partnership deals, for the sake of comparison, my fellow newbie Las Vegas local Michael Jackson just did a deal with Thomas Barrack of Colony Capital, which owns the Las Vegas Hilton and Station Casinos. It really was sorta one-sided … but quite a show of good-faith when a neighbor pays off your $23.5 million debt on Neverland Ranch.

Tiger Woods Betting Lines

Tags: , , , , , , ,

Charles in Fort Worth writes in wanting to know how to donk off his bankroll without chasing straights and flushes:

Hi Dan,

I have an idea for a sports bet and since you are my connection to the world of gambling I thought you could give me some help on who and how to place it.

I want to place a $500 bet on Tiger Woods breaking the record for the most majors won. He currently has 13 and needs 6 more to break the record. I want to bet $500 on him breaking the record within the next 8 and 10 majors. Who could I contact to get the odds and place the bet with. Please let me know what you can find out or where I can go to make the bet. Thanks

GoodChuck

Las Vegas Hilton Closing Its Poker Room?

Tags: , , ,

That’s what I’m hearing. From a generally reliable source who heard it from some guy who heard it from some other guy in Vegas.

Quality journalism at its finest! Remember, you heard it here first.

UPDATE: Confirmation from the brick-and-mortar poker-room gurus here.

UPDATE: Mike Paulle’s insightful obituary.
