How many Big Time Celebs have Offshore Accounts?

[Journeyman]

I would bet its rather large...Especially when you think about how many gamble in Vegas, why wouldn`t they have an offshore account? They may even read these forums for all we know!!

There was a rumor or it may have even been true that Jaromir Jagr was down very large to an offshore book ( I never knew if it was true though)

Any clerks out there want to confirm where the celebs are playing offshore? You know the degenerate gamblers Ben Affleck and Bruce Willis and Micky Rourke are getting down every night somewhere over the net...Which book is taking Jack Nicholson`s Lakers action

I heard all the above names play at Hollywood and Tradewinds.

I am probably going to catch shit, but I am personal friends with Mickey, and he is a tiny player. He plays at a book on the Don Best, but is no whale.

Where does Jim McMahon play?? LOL

 

[RobFunk]

from that thread "....It should be noted that Scotty at Tradewinds had plenty of money before he ever knew Willis bet...."

this makes total sense to me. if you would like to gamble a ton of money, would you really like to have the possibility of having it "start someone's empire" ? no, you'd rather lose it to a guy who's got money like you have. that way you know he gets off on it a lot less.

In all seriousness, is there a bigger celebrity playing offshore other than SICK GAMBLER?

 

[RobFunk]

when he actually is sick gambler, probably not.

Caller: Probably 100

Clerk: Well we can`t give a bonus on 100 Dollars sir, sorry...

Caller: No I mean 100 Grand...

Clerk: Hold on one second sir!!!

Caller: Um ok...

LOL, How do these type of transactions go down?

"I got Jack Nicholson on line 3, he wants to send 300K"...this is a whole nother side we don`t hear much about!

All the major whales play on credit, and almost all play through some sort of agent. Guys like Jack and Bruce don't have to post up, what they do need is someone to run interference for them, thus the agent. Hollywood has a couple of agents to the stars, maybe more than a couple come to think about it. The thing to remember is that moving large amounts like we are discussing here is never easy, no matter who you are.

Charlie Sheen used to play back in his wild period. Stone cold square (what an upset). He bet NBA 5 dimes side, 5 dimes total, 5 dime 2 team hook-up with the two, for the whole card (fav. and over of course).
