Terry Watanabe on Gambling Away $350 Million Fortune​

He got some amazing comps though, just sayin'


Not as good as comps as "Vegas Matt", but close.

Poor Terry. They fkd him good. Only evil assholes would do that to someone. I’m happy czr is getting Crushed now. Hopefully the stock price goes so low it gets taken over by another operator .

"How did your father amass his fortune?"

"He didn't gamble....."

absolutely agree... been in gaming industry for decades, starting with Circus Circus, Leroys, Lucky's, William Hill....but when Caesar's bought them all out the environment went downhill fast. Many long time professionals like me just jumped ship because the Caesar vibe was so bad.

Also. Watanabe first went to Wynn casino when he started gambling in Vegas. He lost 20 mm and Steve Wynn pulled him to the side. He said. “Terry. You are a problem gambler. Your drinking doesn’t help either. I’m not going to let you kill yourself here. I am banning you from playing at my properties. Get help. This will end bad for you if you dont. “

These were words told to me by Tim Poster at Wynn. An executive that was friendly with all the big players / losers.

So what did terry do ? He went across the street to czr and literally lit all his money on fire with the help of those assholes.

Was good interview. Thanks. Going to check out his channel for others.

I appreciate such anecdotal stories more than I used to. When people are authentic, it can give a lot of insight into what makes us human, imo.

The channel is a lot like Soft White Underbelly. I tried to watch the interview on SWU but couldn't understand him without the subtitles.

A good friend of mine terry Benedict, owned multiple casino's in Vegas back in the day told me quote if I don't take their money sombody else will. He was one of the sharpest operators on the strip, till he crossed Danny ocean and messed with Danny 's woman tess.
