I'll take 10 random seat numbers against either team getting 2-1 for any amount

Like a modern day Titanic Thompson.

Amazing fella, Rothstein. Same goes for Titanic and the others, of course.

You'd have to be mad not to want to read about people like them.

Billy Hill was quite a character, too, but more of a nasty piece of work. He was in cohorts with John Aspinall, at the Claremont, & it was reckoned he had a Blackjack scam going which made him & Aspinall millions. Marked cards.

His "bodyguard" (lol) was Mad Frankie Fraser, & it was Frankie, on Billy's orders, who slashed Jack Spot. Nothing serious, like, just a scratch.

On the bright side, you made someone's day by giving them extra legroom
