When you love someone, you've gotta trust them. There's no other way. You've got to give them the key to everything that's yours. Otherwise, what's the point? And, for a while, I believed that's the kind of love I had.
Before I ever ran a casino, Ace Rothstein was a hell of a handicapper, I can tell you that. I was so good, that whenever I bet, I could change the odds for every bookmaker in the country. I'm serious, I had it down so cold, that I was given paradise on earth. I was given one of the biggest casinos in Las Vegas to run. The Tangiers.
By the only kinda guys that can actually get you that kinda money. Sixty two million, seven hundred thousand dollars. I don't know all the details...
