Yes he does. I saw a show on that also. It makes complete sense. He only plays to have fun and waste time when he goes. Either way, win or lose at the big or small tables, it would mean nothing to him.

On-top · 03-10-2004, 10:02 PM

He and Warren Buffet occasionally get together and play checkers. fyi.

exactly.. if he would play with 100k bets it would only mean a stupid risk of risiking 100k.. if he wins he basicly gains nothing.

So why should he bother?

fuzebox · 03-10-2004, 10:04 PM

I just reloaded that counter 10 times to make sure it worked properly...

Looks nice

Basic_man · 03-10-2004, 10:04 PM

You played with him ?

WWC · 03-10-2004, 10:05 PM

what a cheap ass!

reynold · 03-10-2004, 10:26 PM

$5 only? boy, that's cheap!

pornstar2pac · 03-10-2004, 10:27 PM

I have played BJ with Bill online 3 or 4 times

Illicit · 03-10-2004, 10:27 PM

$5 or $50,000, its all the same to him... so why bother going after the big bucks...

exspamr · 03-10-2004, 10:29 PM

i heard he thinks his kids are lazy fucks and hes only leaving them a few million each and leaving the rest to charity

yes, he has mentioned that a few times to me.

Za Ha · 03-10-2004, 10:43 PM

He plays for the fun of the game. Playing for $100k is a joke to that guy anyway, thats like any of us would play $10 per hand.

So there is no point, for him to be considered a "high roller" in his own mind he would have to bet min of $1billion and no casino can pay that out.

erehwon · 03-11-2004, 03:10 AM

Someone once figured out that the amount of money Gates makes a year makes it not worthwhile to waste the time picking up a dollar bill blowing in the wind as he would have made like five dollars in that timeframe.

johnbosh · 03-11-2004, 03:13 AM

cheap ass

03-11-2004, 03:20 AM

Ya, but he's busy drinking $12,000 dollar glasses of wine while the others sip on bud light.

well said.

born4porn · 03-11-2004, 03:24 AM

no matter how much he lost he would be making more than that per second, I am, sure that makes every hand he plays more enjoyable!

The problem with those calculations is that they forget to take into account that even while Bill Gates is bending over to pick up the dollar he's still making money at the same rate.

So no matter what he does, it's always worth it to pick up the dollar. Which is why he uses coupons when he goes to the Grocery store. (that's also true)

chodadog · 03-11-2004, 05:20 AM

He obviously doesn't play to make money, because even if he wins big, it's not going to matter. Probably figures that if he's going to lose money, he may as well not be giving the big bucks to a casino.

OldJeff · 03-11-2004, 05:23 AM

The rules become different when you ARE the biggest dog on the planet.

He has no one he needs to impress, and like it has been said, a million dollar win to him is actually no different than the average person finding a penny in the street.

Although if the Walmart Waltons had not broken up the family fortune among a bunch of them they have double Gates' money in todays dollars.

In comparitive dollars JD Rockerfeller was MUCH richer the Gates

Pornopat · 03-11-2004, 09:49 AM

The bastard still owes me $10 cause he lost two hands.
I called him and he told me to come get it.

I geuss he forgat about his security leaks...

WoDaT · 03-11-2004, 10:03 AM

There is a reason why he is one of the worlds most richest. And it's not because he makes insecure, unstable software and sells it in a monopoly, it's because he plays 5 dollar blackjack!

hoe_vender · 03-11-2004, 11:12 AM

I can so see that

at least he is not a complete idiot by betting more than 5 bucks.

Vegas is like a huge church, and everyones a christian.

GeorgeK · 03-11-2004, 11:15 AM

He's apparently into Bridge, too (like Warren Buffett).

They're bridge partners or they play together..or something like that..I have no idea how bridge works

beemk · 03-11-2004, 11:22 AM

its like if any of us go to the casino and play the nickel slots. we do it to kill time and to have fun, not because we think we're going to strike big.

Los · 03-11-2004, 11:30 AM

from what i hear this is coming from a friend of mine thats a casino host he said when people like that come in they don't let them gamble big money because they can single handedly break the casino and make there stocks drop to shit....
