    Las Vegas gambler sues Caesars Palace claiming casino plied him with drugs

    Las Vegas gambler sues Caesars Palace claiming casino plied him with drugs
    A Las Vegas gambler who lost $112 million (£67 million) in a year, is suing the owner of Caesars Palace, claiming casino staff "milked" him by plying him with alcohol and prescription drugs.

    Terry Watanabe, 52, says he lived and gambled "non-stop" at Caesars Palace for six months in 2007, spending a fortune on roulette and slot machines.

    After an epic losing streak, he ran up gambling debts of around $15 million (£9 million) and was subsequently charged with theft, to which he has pleaded not guilty.

    Mr Watanabe is countering the criminal charges with a civil suit in which he accuses Harrah's, the owners of Caesars Palace, of fraud, breach of contract, conspiracy and negligence.

    He claims company executives manipulated him with a "secret intention" of siphoning off his wealth.

    Harrah's, the world's largest gambling company by revenue, is adamant there was no wrong-doing.

    A spokesman said: "We have a long-standing history of responsible and ethical practices.

    "We're licensed in more jurisdictions than any other gaming company. We stand by our record."
