A regular UK Casinos player won his court battle after refusing to pay a £2 million in debt. The player ,known as “Fat Man”, had canceled a cheque because he did not like the croupier at Aspinall’s and considered the game unfair. Even thought the Fat Man won this legal battle he was not so fortunate in the next, being forced to pay the remaining £10.5 million debt he owed the casino.
The Fat was a regualr player at the Aspinall’s casino in London and brought an estimated chip amount worth £91 million and losing around £23 million. We over 600 visits the player was a well known figure at the casino and had started playing there since 1994. The Judge explained, “Not surprisingly he was regarded by the club as an important client who demanded and was shown respect”
Zayalt (aka Fatman) explained why he was fighting the debt: “Casinos give a service, and if the service is not good, considering the price which you are paying, then you do not pay. If you go to a restaurant and you do not like the food, you do not pay. If you go to the whorehouse and do not get the pleasure you were seeking, you do not pay.”
UK online casinos have seen massive growth in recent years. Maybe the Fat Man will move tho these instead? Who knows!
