From the Canadian
Press over the holidays:
"GAMBLER LOSES IN COURT
Samir Anz must have thought he'd hit the jackpot. Mr. Anz, 47, won $800
at a Casino Niagara roulette table last February, but the dealer mistakenly
dished out a stack of chips worth $3,200. By the time the dealer realized
the mistake and alerted supervisors, Mr. Anz was in another part of the
Niagara Falls casino. He wasn't found for three hours - by which time
he'd lost the extra $2,400 at blackjack. Even though the extra chips weren't
cashed in and were back in the casino's possession, management asked Mr.
Anz to pay back the $2,400. When he failed to do so the next day, he was
charged with theft. Mr. Anz pleaded guilty to theft and on Monday was
fined $700 and ordered to repay the $2,400."
