Cool, her payback is being richer than any of those Disney suits will ever be, did’nt know her family was loaded intersting she chose MMA as a career, no Paris Hilton route for her.

Her family was 100% against her MMA career. She did it anyway. She said she likes fighting.

“Yeah, the mandalorian. I watched it. Hated it. A merchandising platform for Chinese made baby yoda dolls.”

Disagree. I watched all of it with my 11 year old son. Solid show. Clean and simple. Good guys and bad guys, breaking from more recent Star Wars tripe. A Western/Kung Fu like theme...in space. And Gina Carano was a good addition.

Telling your kids not to do something is a sure way they will do it!

“Slots are tight, though.”

Slots don’t matter to me. I always lose. Always have, always will. That’s why I play so rarely.

The problem is that you’re most likely not holding your mouth right. Also, quitting when you’re ahead improves your odds of going home with more money in your pockets than you started with.

1. people that go to vegas could probably give a rats butt about gina’s politics or who she is & 2. Italian casino owner in Vegas won’t have any problems. I don’t think Sheldon Adelson’s biz was hurt by supporting Trump. Gina is Correct

"Unlike geriatrics like Schwarzenegger and Stallone, women have a short shelf life as Action Heroes,..."

I'll get the memo out to Milla Jovovich.

“The problem is that you’re most likely not holding your mouth right.”

No, I think it’s just the mathematics of probability. If it’s random, there have to be outliers.

“Also, quitting when you’re ahead improves your odds of going home with more money in your pockets than you started with.”

That presumes that there is some point in time at which you are ahead.

I can win at games that require skill and judgment, like poker and pool, but from the time that first coin drops, I am never ahead on the slots.

As an aside, I have never lost significant sums of money on games of chance.

“...a powerful clan...”

Making them a target? It is right there. Evokes images of the Ku Klux Klan, or hillbillies with a grudge, or the Taliban, or Colombian cartels.

Having a couple of Italian cousins named Guido, Don, and Gotti are another form of “best revenge”. /sarc

Most of the Carano’s casino business is centered around the El Dorado complex and a prominent law firm in Reno. I see many of them around town on a regular basis. Senior Carano was good for his word in any business deal.
