I want to address this Tasha because you make it sound like I just didn't want to be bothered. I knew immediately there was a case here. Even before my arm was fractured. As soon as casino personnel grabbed hold of my arm and I was not free to leave, I was being illegally detained and held. Illegal arrest. You can go as far as to call it kidnapping as MaxPen did, although that term probably would be changed as the case progresses.

The question for me at the onset was how much did I want to give up in anonymity which would have financial consequences to my ongoing play, to pursue any remedy. I initially decided preserving what is left of my anonymity was worth more than some 5 to low 6 figure amount that I might win.

What really changed for me, was several people that I respect suggesting higher amounts than I was initially thinking along with the realization, that my anonymity is basically already a thing of the past. That is gone! Pretty much has been since I was doxxed by Mdawg. Some AP's in Vegas knew who I was even before that, but almost all did after that doxxing.

Again, that anonymity is gone. I have found it harder and harder to play since that occurred, and have had to resort to playing busier times and conditions that I would like. And it is only going to get worse. This incident proved that. I am now one of those players that has a harder time playing and probably will eventually be I can't play much at all. So I might as well grab what I can, because yes they do deserve it.

And if I can help re-sent the message that this kind of casino abuse is not acceptable, that is gravy.

So it isn't exactly that anybody "talked me into anything". It was a slow realization that the anonymity that I was hoping to protect, really is all but gone.
