bloomberg report on guy who won 15 million from AC casinos
Wasn't sure what forum to post this in, so I went here. Moderators can move it wherever they want. Thought this was a really interesting report on how Don Johnson the guy who won 15 million from AC casinos a few years back did it. I assumed he was just a whale that got lucky, but actually not the case at all. ............ impressive fella with racetrack roots.

I liked his story. Other than his good looks, intelligence and wealth, he reminds me of me. We both like to gamble and play the horses. Also, I'd say there's a 95% probability he's a member of this website.

IMO...only knowledgeable people should be given the assignment of interviewing these professional gamblers. That way...we don't have to hear ridiculous comments like "Don rarely loses"...or, when she asks the casino CEO..."Are there some games in the casino where the house has a bigger edge than in other games?"

Haven't we had treads on this guy before? Maybe it was even story from a different source.

Yes, there was something in the Off Topic-Poker forum awhile back.

For awhile, a while back, Don Johnson was an executive at Phila. Park Race Track.
