RIP Lefty

Gaming legend, book-maker, and all around ego-maniac; Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal has died. Mr. Rosenthal passed away in his home in Florida last Monday on account of natural causes. He will leave a quasi-legacy, State v. Rosenthal (1977) is a landmark case in gaming law. However most will remember "Lefty" or "Ace" (as he liked to be referred as) from the movie Casino where Robert DeNiro played a trumped up version of him. I was in contact with Frank through his website www.frank777.com and was in the process of writing a paper for my gaming law class that involved his fight with the Nevada Gaming Commission. Anyone have any suggestions for a new topic? Read all about Lefty in the RJ.
