I have two distinct lives. One in the trenches of low-budget film and television, the other in professional gambling. Because of the feast-or-famine nature of show business I need a reliable income... gambling. So here you will read about both worlds. Enjoy!

Well worth the money to have this guy working in your casino! And it seems he is not expensive!

Interesting to see/hear that “transfer of information about gaming activities or operations, including customer personal data” in America may be put into 3rd party databases. In Macau this is without permission from the DICJ simply forbidden:

So amazingly it has never been challenged in the US?
