    This stand-up routine of Norm's rivals Jerry Seinfeld's !

    An Asian whale asking for an Asian dealers is to be expected. But ...
    an American from NJ, asking for a specific language to be spoken ?

    Note that Ivey is a well-known whale in A.C.
    He plays Craps with $1,000,000 buy-ins.

    Did he ask for dealer X or just a Mandarin-speaking dealer?

    He demanded a Mandarin Speaking dealer.
    His bi-lingual "partner" spoke Mandarin.

    Man, you are going TOO FAR if you say just because he was Asian that he was a cheat..........that's too much and over the line. Political correctness be damned.

    Yep; you know it! While I will agree that Asians have a propensity to enjoy gambling, I will NOT let someone state they are all cheats!

    I don't think I misinterpreted your "veiled" insinuations whatsoever.
