Knew exactly what video this was going to before clicking! (ok not exactly but probably)

@Dallas
I can remember seeing this on a documentary some time ago, it was centred around gambling and not the guy himself.
Might have been from Louis Theroux: Gambling in Las Vegas (2007), if not I believe something from Nat Geo channel on how gambling affects the brain.
