Up Close with Lefty Rosenthal

Casino.com, the folks who provide news with CasinoWire have scooped an exclusive interview with the legendary Lefty Rosenthal. From his days as the king of Vegas to comparisons of Rosenthal to Robert DeNiro's character in the movie 'Casino' to handicapping and offshore wagering, this interview wastes no words in asking the questions we all want to know. Did you really own a mint green jacket and associate with hitmen? The Q&A is filled with wonderful quotes that will make you want to light up an expensive Cuban and shuffle some cards. Here's one--Lefty on the subject of high rollers: "There are certain players that can turn the lights out and it's up to the casino operator to make sure the electricity stays on." An insight into a legend; this one is well worth the read.
