An Australian casino which flew in a Singaporean high roller and gave him A$200,000 to gamble with is now suing him for the A$43.2 million ($41.5 million) he purportedly lost on its tables last year.
But the gambler, businessman Wong Yew Choy, argues that the Queensland casino made mistakes on the baccarat games he played in, and he should not have to pay up.
