Look no further my friend. Amarillo Slim's biography is the most interesting stories I have ever heard.
"Growing up and living in Texas all of my life, I have heard tales and stories of the worlds greatest gambler, Thomas Amarillo Slim Preston Jr. From beating Minnesota Fats at pool with a broom, to hitting a golf ball a mile across a frozen lake, or winning $300.000 from country music legend Willie Nelson playing dominoes, his journey to gambling greatness never fails to amaze me. He has played poker with presidents Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon, and drug lords Pablo Escobar and Jimmy Chagra, and of course a highly publicized poker game with porn king Larry Flynt, in which Mr. Flynt lost a whopping $1,700,000"
Worlds greatest and most famous proposition better of all time. Some of his bets and stories are truly unbelieveable. Playing ping pong champs with a coke bottle instead of paddles, playing golfers with hammers instead of clubs. That type of shit has made this guy a millionare. Have at it man.
Give his interview on NPR a listen
