That doesn't say that he lost and used the rebate, that's what he said would happen if you lost, but that's not what did happen.
If it happened to him, then why didn't he use the first person?
He says if "you" lost, not when "I" lost.
He played one night and won $6 mil in one night...when did he lose and take the rebate?
Because that’s the way some people speak for God’s sake. He was doing an interview, not writing a legal document. It is obvious what he meant.
Of course in the night he won $6 million he collected 100% of it and started another trip later or elsewhere when he may have won. Or may have collected the rebate.. That is the whole point of the entire play.
Except that's not what actually happened. He got lucky and won from the start.
He didn't lose, didn't collect the rebate, didn't leave and play elsewhere,
and he is not quoted to say that he did any of that.
If you read the 888 article there is a quote in there of "Andy," one of Johnsons agents, where he says that Johnson was good at taking six figure losses, not panicking, and coming back the next day. I think that statement implies that Johnson took loss rebates.
Druff, let us know when you receive redietz’ credit score.
