Played well over 35,957 shoes of baccarat since I started playing at B&M USA casinos.

THE PURPOSE OF GAMING IS TO WIN!

"Don't say it's a winning hand until you are getting paid for it".

Played numerous properties in Las Vegas, Reno, Southern California, Atlantic City, Connecticut, South Florida, The South/Southeast as well as most areas of The Midwest.

Baccarat, actually a mixture of Watergate, attacking the Gotti Family and the famous ear biting Tyson fight leading to disqualification and a near riot.  Bac has all that & more.

Like I posted back in October of last year one of the greatest car chases of all times.

Story behind The Chase and getting San Francisco to cooperate with the filming of it.

This one is pretty good too. I lived in Los Angeles for 25 years and travelled on the freeways and  I don't know how they filmed the freeway scene at the end of the video......absolutely incredible and the stunt drivers are amazing.   



The movie "To live and die in LA" was pretty good too.

Absolutely, top 5.

"The car chase in this film has consistently been ranked in the top 5 best car chase sequences on film, usually appearing in various one to five positions through the years with The French Connection (another Friedkin directed film), The Seven-Ups, The Blues Brothers, Ronin and the gold standard and first of the famous car chase film sequences, Steve McQueen's Bullitt.  While some lists might carry one of these films as an outlier in its particular rankings, for the most part these films are consistently ranked by industry and other sources as the authoritative list of the best, and the car chase in To Live and Die In LA carries a general acceptance as the third best car chase ever, behind only Bullitt (the consensus #1) and either The French Connection or The Seven-Ups. By any measure employed, the car chase and the closing credits of To Live And Die in LA, which feature a high speed POV driving sequence, are among the best automotive photography ever filmed."

What's amazing about these old car chases is that they are real cars an real drivers.......today the "chases" are just computer graphics.....in the 1980's when these chases were filmed there were no computers and graphics so it was all real photography. 

The most amazing shot from To Live and Die in LA was at minute 3:58 when the stunt driver passes right in front of a moving freight train ...................absolutely incredible......one mistake and he is dead.
