I am sorry that I missed out on the Stardust experience in 2005!
Casino was an extremely well done movie. Pay close attention to the Japanese high roller profiled (playing baccarat) at the beginning of the movie. That character is based on a real dude (I'll post some of the "real" stats later this weekend). In "real life" he managed to get Trump to
piss his pants --- over his action one weekend @ the Trump Plaza. Trump was so nervous, he was contemplating closing the game that evening, and had the supervisors calling him with updates continuously. I "love" stories about "The Donald" --- as that man does not have the nerve or savvy to really manage high end play @ his properties.
