Lol I don’t gamble cause my good 2 friends are crazy degenerates I’ve watched one of them lose 115k at black Jack 2 days after he won it.. then got another 5k a week later to try to go on a run to win a ton back since he owed someone 75k that day, we went tonthe casino he turned the 5k into $46,000 and I told him to cash out and pay the people 30k and keep 16 for himself, instead he keep going and walked out of there with 15$ for gas money.. ..
the only time I played is if I’m way bored and over being at the casino for 15 hours with a degenerate friend.. and one time I got 50$ free slot play the casino was doing as like a promotion and I won $2,500 and the pit boss came over and they opened the machine and shit thought I cheated and ended up roping off the machine and were total assholes and barely wanted to give me the money.

wiseuguy is correct below and I appreciate he shared my post.

this gives you a good idea re: hold percentage, total take etc.

its going to vary per sport. / region

unfortunately the report didnt give us enough insight into there operation. the $2,000 a day is a formality and it only needs to happen once for the charge. it doesn't mean it happened every day. no bookie wins every week let alone every day. the $2,000 X 365 days isn't relevant.
Did boomakers have a horrible year due to The pandemic?? Or did they still get to squeeze out some money and the year wasn’t a complete bust?? I’m sure some Shylock books did pretty well
There is a actual name being given to this whole new group of ppl who came up outta nowhere due to the pandemic....

There called PANDEMIC BALLERS

and it became the "new lane" where if you were involved in any type of crime pre corona.... You made lots money during Corona...

2020 will always be remembered basically for free money for criminals
illegal or underground gambling has flurioused during the pandemic
and how many people scammed hte government on those loans for huge money

I'd take Leonetti's word on it, though the DeNittis Talent Agency tapes from the 1970s have Testa, Scarfo, etc. talking about how Rugnetta was "too vindictive" and wanted to kill Scarfo, so there is still something to that part of the story.
I revisited the DeNittis tapes, and not only do they talk about Rugnetta wanting to kill Scarfo, but Scarfo and Testa talk about how it all began because Scarfo refused to marry or even date Rugnetta's daughter. So that story comes from Nicky Scarfo himself on tape.

Seems Leonetti got it confused.

The only place to get the full transcript would be documents from the early 1980s RICO trial, but you can piece together some of it from the book "Wiretaps" from the late 1980s and other sources... I remember an online court doc that included some other parts of the transcript that aren't in "Wiretaps", too.

What's interesting is Scarfo is the most quiet guy in the conversation. Granted he was with the underboss, a captain, and a senior member, but it kind of shows he knew his place in that context. Not the Nicky Scarfo we know from 1981 onward.

He's not known for saying much on wiretaps in general, either.

About 35 years ago i got a packed cigar there with a plastic tip
it was called ky blue grass
did i get scammed or was that a real name for weed there

Apologize for the late reply, but what you probably bought was in fact a replica of some good ol Kentucky skunk weed that was the "Gas" of it's day. The cigar with a plastic tip is definitely not what I would've enjoyed smoking some of the mean green out of. You shoulda been handed a French Light 1.25 instead of that jungled mess, lol..if you or any you guys ever down this way DM me. Ill put together a nice smorgasbord of local greens for you to enjoy your stay with. It'll smell like skunks have fucked nearby lol

Sorry for the random interruption fellas...

Take care,
Doobeez...

This is from the last bit of the new Mob Talk Sitdown GA and DS uploaded today. Can't tell whether they're being coy because everything's under seal or whether they're just speculating.
DS: Alright, George, let's wrap this up. That super secret discovery that no-one has seen could yield a lot of things coming down the road.
GA: Yeah, I think there's more there it's just a question of when and if it's unsealed. We'll find out a lot more then.
DS: Maybe more than one induction ceremony on tape.
GA: Maybe more than one person wired up and recording for sound too.
DS: Okay, we'll see what happens.

When is the next court date for Mazzini/Grande?

They kinda intimated recently that they felt more stuff was coming down the pike. But I dunno. I’m skeptical. They’ve been waiting for “the big bust” when it comes to Philly for 10+ years now and I think both of them deep down kinda feel like “this is all y’all got? Seriously?”

I always though it was the other way around , The Judge would not split cases and everybody would sink with the dirt, This is a new one on me
