Nothing new in the Lord`s vineyard! The bills are ever difficult to pay, especially bet´s bill. But I don´t understand why his lawer admit his case. I think that his lawer saw an oportunity to continue to exploid his weaknes and also charge your fee on Tsoukernik´s back. It´s very child argument. "I haven´t guilty, the other allows me to make me drunk and to do these". If it was accepted all the prisions would be empty!

This story is finally over and it looks it didnt end good for tsoukernik. It was very difficult to win this one. At the end his fault playing with all that money. Although, while being drunk, lots of things can happen.

This case is absurd from my point of view. Leon Tsoukernik must to pay this money because no one forces to eat or drink. If Leon was under the influence of alcoholic beverages then bear the consequences. If he has no money to pay must to sell the casino or something else.

Hello my friends and fellow mobsters This is a very funny law suit the only guy that was sure to win was the laywer because of the fees so the case was i`m drunk I want to play poker I loose so I want my money back if he had won I think that he would turn the money over to the casino with the same excuse

Lawyers win most of the times, no matter the result. So i agree with that remark. But at the end it was a long shot winning that case. He gambled, he lost, now he must pay.

That is why it is said that I hypothesized that some people should drink when they play even more so how much money they are involved now lost if they lost their pay because they had won they wanted to receive that and the truth
I like it when there is a live stream even,.. It reminds me on a few years back,.. were a players only drinked,..bloody mary's the whole event,.. And when he was ft he was totaly wasted,. And ofcourse he didnt win it,..but it was very funny to watch

it's funny this, but when it comes to playing for big money it's no longer fun when you're drunk. Is about 3 million dollars on the respective day. Of course this casino owner Leon T. is not right but i would forbid games when you're drunk for all.
