Ego. Unfounded assertiveness. I’m me, therefore I am good at this and know everything about it! So they line up to beat one of the hardest sports there is and lose money year after year, deluding themselves about the results. Almost any sports bettor you talk to will say he wins a bit more than he loses. Thats why his bookie drives a Porsche.
However, I went to Santa Anita for something to do one day and had a ball, betting $2.00 a race and eating good food and found something fun to do a few times a year. If you approach it that way, its barely even gambling. Derby weekend (which is also Cinco De Mayo and, invariably, the week of a huge boxing match) is one of the two best times to be in Vegas, behind only Halloween. And heading out to a beautiful track like Del Mar or Santa Anita is a lock for a good time, and one of the best things to do in LA. Sadly, this pastime is dying off, with the kids all hooked on video games, Pepsi cola and MTV. So enjoy it while you can. Also, HBO had a great show with Luck, and its a crime that they canceled it in favor of a bunch of puerile crap about dragons and vampires.
Juice ladies can often be spotted sitting at a table in California card clubs, playing $5.00 a hand, waiting for people occasionally walk up and give them money. There are juice men too, but the idea of them isnt as entertaining. Ive seen one juice man get sucked into playing pai gow tiles and wiped out himself, probably up to his eyes in debt with a juice lady. Cant say I felt too bad for the guy.
But, suppose you get lucky and win a months pay in your first couple trips to the tables. Now youve got a dragon to chase and are more likely to be hanging around with a bunch of other smelly, car-living sacks a few years down the line. So your peers,the casino employees and other people around gambling will know a disproportionate number of people who’ve had beginners luck.
Your room, however, is a tomb. Not only is it dead quiet, your curtains are made out of those bibs you put on for x-rays, allowing you to crash and recharge with maximum efficiency in total darkness, any time of day. This stark contrast underlies the flow of the casino vacation. Long periods relentless stimulation and expenditure, separated by short periods of comatose restoration, allotted so you to get back to it as soon as possible.
Shoe shiners often just flat out beg or harass people for money. They steal food off peoples plates. They take any opportunity to inject themselves into drama, so they can feel relevant. They regard themselves as meaningful characters in the play and, well, look at all I wrote about them.
Low end casinos tolerate shoe shiners because they gamble away whatever small sums they come into from welfare, family members who are soft touches and other outside sources. Over the years, I imagine the loses of a decent pool of shoe shiners add up. Similarly, they tip casino staff just enough to tolerate them and I guess a few dollars here and there from the shoe shine swarm adds up over a year. The only downside is that no sane person ever comes to that casino twice.
Anyway, the more interesting touts are the con artists who make up the majority. These are the motor mouthed boiler room operators you hear on sports radio stations. (Rule of thumb: everything advertised on radio is a scam.) They bet imaginary money on numbers that don’t exist and claim the non-results as wins. They might have multiple characters that they play on the radio, each with different sets of picks, guaranteeing that some of them will always be on a hot streak. How is this legal? Fuck if I know. But rest assured, these men are charlatans. If you’ve ever coughed up money to one, you lose your right to laugh at your girlfriend for paying a psychic.
Fun fact: Wynn is a vegan and all of his restaurants have several vegan options. His employees had to sign for and take home a video on the virtues of veganism.

In any case, once it was properly opened up for gambling, Macau quickly surpassed Vegas for gambling revenue. That doesn’t stop Vegas from heavily catering to Asian players with restaurants and promotions designed specifically for people who live on the other side of the world. I don’t have statistics but I’m quite comfortable saying that, in the California card clubs where I used to work, more than half the revenue came from Asian customers, who make up 13% of California’s population. Those clubs are divided into two sides: the poker side and the California games (black jack, pai gow, pan-9) side. But everybody just calls the latter The Asian side. Most of the dealers and floor men are Asian too. We can only hope that this solitary but devastating vice is enough to prevent them from taking over the world.
