"That's the truth about Las Vegas: we're the only winners. The players don't stand a chance."
—Ace Rothstein, Casino
Her dice were red rubies, they rolled and they tumbled
And I never saw time running out with my roll
And in a wasteland of cut glass my dreams have all crumbled
And I've paid with whatever I had left for a soul
— Sands of Nevada, by Mark Knopfler
