  Speaker 3: I don't know what this world is coming to. Jesus Christ.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: Can't these guys even just be honest gangsters and payout?
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: And I say that because fifty years ago, back in
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: the day, I ran a gambling joint. I'm shocked, and
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: there was none of those shenanigans going on. In fact,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: I would even fund one of usually one of the
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: players at one of the tables was funded by me.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: And what we would do is whatever I would get
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: sixty percent, I would give him forty percent. But there
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: was no cheating, none of those shenanigans going on. I
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: checked everybody when they came in for weapons and stuff.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: I made the women opened their pocketbook to see if
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: they had anything in there, and as low as long
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: as you were playing in my place. The food that drinks.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Thing was the executive.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: Game, Yeah, exactly, every Saturday night at twelve o'clock. And
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: it was you had to be You couldn't just come,
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: you had to be a member.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: And was like to Soprano with an executive game. But
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: let me ask you a question. If you just did
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: a normal poker game like Tony Sopranos or Henry Hill,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: and you would make a nice profit, wouldn't you.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because I got a cut on every part. I
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: got a cut, so I got a cut no matter what.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: I see your play. Why do you need to cheat?
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Then that's what I'm saying, I don't know, that's what
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: I'm saying. It's it's not. I knew a woman up
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: the street and when I was a kid, I used
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: to deliver the food her house. She had a game
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: where people would come from all over and she would pay.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: This was before ubers and lift. She would pay your
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: cart service or the limousine to take you to the
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: game because you had to have so much to get
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: sit at the table, and the game went on all night,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: and food and drink, everything was free as long as
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: you were playing. And she she paid out. You know,
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: none of the Shenanigan because they're making it. I was
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: making it out no matter what. I was making it
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: that I got a cut of every pot that was played.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: So I had it coming and going, so there was
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: no need to do stuff like that. And I don't
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: need that if you found if somebody found out somebody
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: was cheating, I don't want nobody a shot or stamped
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: in front of my place. So uh now I was
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: to all the people I knew, and did it on
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: the I even had a game in a hotel at
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: the Hotel Saint George that Marinos.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Where the executive game was too. Remember it was in
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: a hotel.
• 5:51
