Richard W. Munchkin is an American writer, director, producer, radio host and professional gambler. == Gambling == Originally from Des Plaines, IL, Munchkin started playing chess and gin rummy at the age of three. His first exposure to the idea of playing for profit came when he was 12, when a family friend mentioned playing backgammon for money. Munchkin was able to put himself through Columbia College in Chicago where he received a BA in Theater Arts by playing backgammon and poker professionally. After graduating from college in the late 70s, he moved to Las Vegas and worked as a dealer and occasional pit boss at The Castaways Casino. While working in the casino he learned to count cards, and after a few years was making more money playing blackjack than dealing, so he quit to become a full time professional blackjack player. In 2004 Munchkin competed in Season 1 of the The World Series of Blackjack, a series of televised blackjack tournaments hosted by the Game Show Network. In 2009 Munchkin was inducted into Blackjack Hall of Fame. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Richard W. Munchkin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
