Who Am I? Week #57

[kingchuck69]

Welcome to the first Who Am I? of 2010!

Of course, WAI? is the game where I think of a subject and you have to guess it. I give out a clue every day until somebody guesses it.

The winner, of course, wins a piece of my gratitude.

This week's subject is a PERSON.

CLUE #1: I was born over 100 years ago.

THE FINAL CLUE: I was the founder of the Horseshoe Casino chain, which was notorious for their high table limits on poker.

 

[Aaron]

Benny Binion

Aaron wins!

It is gambling legend Benny Binion, whose Horseshoe Casino helped revolutionize gambling in Las Vegas. I went to the Horseshoe near Louisville, KY at Christmastime and enjoyed myself (and lost $50).

New game next week!
