Gambling giant MGM Resorts International says it did nothing wrong in its dealings with a man who accuses it of preying on his gambling addiction with repeated cash bonuses intended to keep him gambling.
Antar is the nephew of Eddie Antar, who founded the Crazy Eddie electronics stores in the 1970s and 1980s. Eddie Antar defrauded investors out of more than $74 million, and died in 2016.
His revised lawsuit, filed in May, drops those allegations and focuses on what his lawyer Matthew Litt calls “what's really important here to society as a whole: the enticement by the casino of a person who was showing signs of being a problem gambler.” “Despite a heightened sensitivity to problem gaming, New Jersey courts have repeatedly held that casinos have no common law duty to prevent alleged ‘compulsive gamblers’ from gambling,” MGM wrote.

MGM says it did nothing wrong as 'fraudster' gambled onlineGambling giant MGM Resorts International says it did nothing wrong in its dealings with a New York City man who accuses it of preying on his gambling addiction with repeated cash bonuses intended to keep him gambling.

The company also denies it violated any New Jersey laws.
