From the London Evening Standard, July 3, 2014
A millionaires, who shall remain nameless to protect her family, is suing the Ritz Casino in London because she lost £2 million in one evening of gambling. Her rational is that she is addicted to gambling. The good people at the casino knew that and did nothing to stop her gambling at their establishment. In fact, she says in court, they encouraged her to continue playing allowing her to cash cheques in the process. She says that she needed someone to tell her to stop gambling then and she says she would have. So I guess she’s saying it’s not her fault. It’s their fault. No word on how long the nameless gambler has been stupid.
