Cheers Tighty,
Though Saville was confirmed as somewhat "eccentric".
Lol, yes I think 'eccentric' is possibly an understatement. I know a few things about Ol' Jimmy that would suprise you..and possible turn your stomach lol..Wouldn't be right to air them on here though.  My favourite type of post...promising of shocking revelations etc...but shouldn't write it here...AAARRGH. Why not waft beer under my nose and then give me water? |

I love on the clip A winning streak where that guy has lost 24k in 24 hours and Louis says "maybe you should cut your losses"
The guy looks at him disgusted that he could make such a comment and says "Im not a quitter, im not a quitter"

The key is to avoid the trailers.  |

interesting, but not one his better documentaries. He never really got under the skin of any of the people he interviewed or spent time with. He's at his best when he really pisses people off, when they don't really know what to make of him.

I think being allowed to film on the casino premises was limiting him to what he could show.
Reading between the lines though:
If you are rich and play roulette/craps/baccarat - casino will assign you a person who will 'look after you' - meaning- will make you feel special so you can blow xxxxx K on fruit machines and other crap games, not only that, but this guy will encourage you and stay with you for a whole night so u can lose more. I bet that if you are winning a lot, the same guy will encourage you to stop and leave as the winner.

No secret they are called Casino Hosts. They just have to keep you at the table. |

Why would they want you to leave if you are winning?
