The Man Who Lost $204 Million On A Trip To Vegas 

Lol

hi

99% of gamblers quit before a big win (do y’all realise that this comment is a joke? i’m not trying to like endorse gambling it’s just goofin round)

bro did not finish the video yet

potato

Yes!

I hate gambling and casinos but it is good that someone didn’t exploit someone addiction to it instead putting a limit to help them stop

I mean, the owner was already a billionaire. He probably knew enough was enough.

Only reason is because they are both rich and he was sympathetic due to their same status.

Its fiiiinshed ru-vid.comhC1J6N4HS24?feature=share

and lets take moment to despice how ceasars keep taking advantage of him when obviously his gambling was out of hands. Im talking about wagering 850mil per year in a casino

Your grammer stinks. Please proofread your post, Junior.

Yeah, if he truly gave a shit about people he wouldn't be running a casino.

Ohh really after ppl losing money they're not allowed of course the owner the biggest greedy money 🤑🤑 maker

​@johnoneill1386 very true. You ban people because of law suits my parents own casino's

Crazy, I thought there are no jail for debt in the US. Couldn't have have filed bankruptcy?

instead that money probably paid for another yacht, goddamnit

roulette was also my vice. Won a poker tournament for 44k at choctaw in oklahoma that i played on a whim because i was staying there that night just passing through. I was extremely happy as that was a TON of money to me. I ended up losing over 40 thousand of it playing roulette in vegas over the next three days. Had thoughts of ending it after that. To this day never touched a table again. been four years

He did those things to himself. They lacked the power to force him into anything.

He quit before hitting it big.

@@AirrackVIogsumm okay

@@AirrackVIogsumm okay

I agree and give the guy due respect. But it was a business decision too. Wynn seeks to portray his resort as a high-class venue for choosy people; he doesn't want drunk gambling addicts littering the tables, nor does he want high-profile lawsuits (he saw that one coming a mile away). Modern-day Caesars is just a trashy AI-driven cash machine.

@@oqp489 did you even watch the video?

@@oqp489 So I'm only allowed to feel bad for poor kids? I think you should get a life to learn empathy.

I'd say he absolutely did not deserve the cancer and was not a bad person, but it was his choice to do the rest. No one forced him to drink or forced him to gamble or forced him to even enter the casino. I absolutely feel bad for him because addiction is a hell of a thing, and he definitely did a lot of good stuff with it, but at the end of the day, he made his own bed. I do want to reiterate that I do feel terrible for him, though. I definitely wish him well.

"Worked an honest job" ...hmmm, more like fell into a successful firm that his father built, and then he just kept doing the same thing.

​@@avernvrey7422that counts as honest work. It's like he scammed his way into it.

@@avernvrey7422 Did you watch video? he turned 17 local shops into a $25 million a MONTH international business. Most people wouldn't even be able to run the local shops. Most small businesses fail. For reference, a US mcdonalds franchise will make around $200 thousand a month. thats equivalent to owning 125 mcdonalds.

"Abused by the casino owner" lmao, more like lacked any impulse control whatsoever.

Building and running a business is an incredibly high risk environment with a lot of intense activity and when you step away from that it's hard to find things to do that replicate that feeling of power and risk for some people.

@@ruk2023-- I think thats probably why terry choose to pick house games instead of skill games. He probably missed those crazy highs from major success at the choices he made that felt against the odds.

Never enough!😮

Boredom, trying to fulfill a void in life, etc. it can happen to anyone. Like the saying goes even millionaires can become broke if they try to live like billionaires.

gambling is always about the THRILL never about money.am glad I was able to quit this overwhelming and consuming addiction.

does his father being a gambler have any correlation to the fact that they own the Wynn casino in las vegas?

He had to make back the money his father lost

Steve Wynn is NOT a good person and Steve Wynn did not ban him for altruistic reasons. Steve Wynn saw that he's a compulsive gambler (easily recognized because of his father) that had already lost a fortune. He banned him because he didn't think his fortune would last much longer and didn't want to be in the situation that the Caesars ultimately ended up in with Watanabe oweing the casino $14 million with no way to pay. In other words Wynn exploited him as much as they thought possible before it became a risk to them and then they banned him.

It's called relaxed inhibitions and is common with drunks.. poor judgement when it comes to money doing things you wouldn't normally do ie buying drinks for complete strangers or impulse buying. I have done it myself and studied it when taking the Servsafe alcohol management class

The level of elaborate tipping is the saddest part. It’s not just a kind huge tip for the bartender or something, it’s very ostentatious. He was desperately seeking some kind of connection or impact on other people and the only way he could figure out how was to hand out steaks to big groups of people. Very sad.

Yeah, he really seems like a nice person who cared about people around him, even when drunk. He could be a rich drunk brat, but he wasn’t. He had a serious addiction, and I feel terrible for him, but he really can’t blame it on the casino. He’s an adult and he makes his own decisions.

i feel for em. I work in a casino, so I've seen my fair share of addicts chasing that high. People laugh at it but It's really no different from a heroin addiction. Except instead of destroying your body you're destroying your financial security. I've seen motherfuckers hit thousand dollar jackpots and not feel anything because they're already thousands in the hole.

I know about this addiction all to well. It's very dangerous, but very potent. It changes the way you see money...and it changes how you think. It can make you so incredibly stupid... you'd do the dumbest shit just for the "chance" at winning. I know someone who stole from a child...their own child...just to go gamble. It was heart breaking.

he inherited that business from his dad and sold it. If he had started it himself he would have money again as he would have the skills to do it again.

He didn't build the firm though. He was just given it by his dad. Not sure how "smart" he was. A better example might be that old story of a casino/hotel in LV asking the annual CPA convention to find another venue because their members didn't gamble much and the casino wasn't making enough off of them. The CPAs weren't especially smart, they just knew the odds.

@@jayyu2174 I would love to see you inherit a business and run it to the ground, like most normies would

@@avernvrey7422 Grow a brain and watch the video again. He didn't "inherit" the business. Being a CEO doesn't mean you own a business, it just means you have shares in it and he just sold his shares. That being said, he made the business much larger and much more profitable after becoming the CEO. I'm pretty sure an average person is unable to do that

Business acumen and hard work have nothing to do with wisdom. You can be smart in some areas and dumb as a brick in others. Being 'smart' isn't a catchall trait. Also, once you become rich enough, basically the only way you can fall is up. Social and government systems are set up so that it becomes nearly impossible to not grow once you're large enough.

It's nuts, I can understand if you make some profit that you'll continue gambling, but when he was at 100 million dollar loss and realizing he's shit at gambling, I dont get why you'd even continue, he was bound to hit rock bottom

To think this dude took over his dad's company and used the base and contacts to return to asia exploit low paid workers and sell to the US market at an insane mark up and then spent ALL the profit in a casino rather than actually helping people. Shows how dangerous nepotism can be.

⁠@@degenetron7590you need a lot of discipline to let go. That’s how gambling gets you, clinging on into thinking you can make it all back. Lose 5k, making back 3k, losing that making 1.3k.

@@SodiumTFhe is also made the decision to gambling his money , when the first ceo banned him from the casino because he was spending too much and drinking too much , it was a saving moment for him to understand that he was addicted and needed help instead he decided to go all out ,gambling is alway never a good thing especially if you don’t know how to stop ,with that kind of Money , he could have done so much then just gambling .

I really don't get it, if you go to a bar and get drunk the bartender will be required to cut you off and in many places even have duty of care to not allow you to drive drunk and call you a taxi. But in a casino, black out drunk guy barely able to remember previous sentence in the conversation is instead fed prescription pills and even more alcohol and still made to gamble.

​@@penitent2401exactly. The government let's the casinos do what they want because the casinos own them. I don't understand why some people here in the comments defend the casinos, probably they are employees in casinos or scammers

@@penitent2401yeah, the casinos should bear some level of responsibility if they’re going to serve it. The staff should be trained or at least have someone they can call to assess the situation and make those calls. To let someone get black out drunk, knowingly provide them with more alcohol than one person should have in a day AND give him prescription pills? That’s why they ended their case, how someone wasn’t thrown in jail for that is insane.

@@penitent2401welcome to capitalism. If we can abuse your addiction which will result in you continuing your other addiction which will make us rich as kings, we will gladly guide you to your own destruction.

I lived in NV and worked in casinos for several years and was always amazed how people could hide and cover for gambling losses from friends and family for so long. Until that one day when everything was finally tapped. It never ends well. Take care.

A friend of mine blew 300 K in gambling. He now lives in public housing. He still thinks he is a good gambler. 🤩

I agree with him suing the Casino, usually I would say he chose to do what he did. But they obviously took advantage of a very sick man. It's funny how they only cut you off if THEY are losing money.

I worked in casinos, and it was painfully obvious the patrons that had gambling problems. And while the casinos claim they're there to help addicts, the truth is the customer had to approach an employee for help or info, we couldn't say a word. No matter that we could see it, especially with locals who you might see for hours day after day. It's a sleazy industry at the bottom of it.

Yeah, personally I cannot understand the addiction. However, I do realize it is something that people struggle with everyday. The few times I have played at a casino or bought a lotto ticket, I always lost. I always lose raffles too. This is enough to show me that gambling is usually a huge waste of money and to not do it at all, like touching a hot stove.

Manz, the unluckiest thing that can happen to you is winning on your first couple of visits - that’s what rewires your brain and creates addicts. If you lose you think “this is stupid” and never go again but if you win? Your brain sees it as a possibility, something easily achievable when in reality you just got lucky; you keep going back, and eventually you lose, but since you’ve won before you keep going. Nothing. You lose what you won prior visits. You want it back. You do higher bets. Nothing. You get a small win but it’s not enough to come back, you keep going, etc the cycle continues until you lose everything. Sunk cost fallacy kicks in you sell things you borrow money you want it all back and it just never happens. Its horrible. Be happy you’ve lost and thus can’t see the appeal!

@@TheGreatDetectiveKnows That is a good way to put it! I am terribly unlucky when it comes to that stuff. I could definitely see why people could get addicted if you consider the winning as your first experiences!
