From the Detroit News:
Detroit -- Italo Mario Parise has sworn off gambling for good.
The 61-year-old professional engineer indulged his appetite for cards, slots and game tables at MotorCity Casino in Detroit for a decade, losing $673,854 of his own money.
Looking back, Parise says he believes he was brainwashed by the casino to keep coming back to gamble more.
And now that he says his head is clear, Parise -- who says he hasn't set foot in a gambling hall since March -- wants his money back from the casino he blames for his losses under an obscure 1961 Michigan law.

I swear... the people who think this kind of case is winnable (and the lawyers who take them)... boggles my mind.
