The 26-year-old woman survived six stab wounds and the punctured breast implants were repaired. Rowley's former roommate Dennis McGill testified this week that the defendant wanted to reclaim what. I remember reading an interview about this in a magazine. This guy participates in a lot of prop bets. I believe before this bet he was supposed to stay in a restroom for 30 days, the person he made the bet with was pretty upset that he couldn't get him to end the bet early so he sent friends to the restroom to drop dukes and try to stink him out.he then went on to talk about some one night. Trumping them all, I suppose, is Brian Zembic, also a poker player though probably more of a blackjack/backgammon player. In the fall of 1996, Zembic won a $100K prop for receiving breast implants, the story of which was subsequently chronicled in Michael Konik’s 1999 anthology The Man With the $100,000 Breasts and Other Gambling Stories.
In a world as colorful as that of professional gambling Brian Zembic really stands out. While having remarkable skills and daring in professional level games of Blackjack and Backgammon, Zembic is more well-known for being a man willing to take on any bet, or odds.
For example, some of his friends wagered fifteen thousand dollars against him being able to live in a bathroom for a full month. The group quickly surrendered half the bet when they realized he would easily be able to win. He has a unique tolerance for extreme situations and behaviors, and this has helped him to reach a celebrity status for more than just playing his games of choice extremely well.
He is, perhaps, better known because of a particular wager he made in 1996. During a game of Backgammon with a friend, the two entered into a conversation about the extreme lengths some women were willing to go to for a body or appearance that was attractive to men. This discussion turned to breast implants and whether or not they were a ridiculous choice option for a woman to take.
Brian Zembic stated that he believed it wasn’t really that uncomfortable or unfortunate for a woman to get implants, which inspired his friend to “dare” him to get implants for himself in order to prove his point. Zembic immediately agreed, and the two negotiated a pseudo-bet. At that time both Zembic and his friend agreed that the discussion was hypothetical and more of a joke.
Later in that same year however, Zembic took some investment advice from this same friend and lost a considerable amount. Looking to regain the funds he told the friend that it was time to honor his bet. While the two debated the point, bringing others into the debate to help them decide, they finally agreed to official terms and the “bet” was on.
Officially Zembic would get implants no smaller than a “38C”. He would also pay for the surgery, and his friend would deposit the one hundred thousand dollar wager into an escrow account until a full year had passed. At that time Zembic could have the implants removed and take his winnings.
The immediate problem for Zembic was funding the surgery, and this was easily handled when he played a few games of backgammon against a friend who happened to also be a plastic surgeon. In only a few games his surgery was “paid” for.
Zembic had his surgery, and more than a year later the implants remained in place (as of 2005 he still had his implants). He drew a great deal of attention from his daring activity and made an appearance on the popular cable program “The Man Show” where he revealed his breasts to the cameras. A 1998 book, “The Man with the $100,000 Breasts” also attracted a great deal of interest in the professional gambler and magician. Today Zembic plays mostly in the online casino environment, and still does some regular performances as a magician.
According to NBC 4 and the New York Times, the FBI’s Eurasian Organized Crime Squad executed federal search warrants earlier today throughout New York City, Los Angeles, Miami and Philadelphia in connection with an illegal gambling ring tied to Russian organized crime.
The investigation revealed high-stakes poker dens, offshore sports betting, and resulted in thirty-four individuals being indicted by Preet Bharara of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York. Among them were well-known poker pros Justin Smith, Bill Edler, Peter Feldman, Abe Mosseri, Joe Mancuso, Vadim Trincher, John Hanson and Eddie Ting.

“The Taiwanchik-Trincher Organization was an international organized-crime group with leadership based in New York City, Kiev and Moscow, and that operated throughout the United States,” the indictment said.
Another man who was charged was Hillel “Helly” Nahmad, who owned the Helly Nahmad Gallery inside the Carlyle Hotel on Madison Avenue. That location was raided after agents executed a search warrant. Nahmad, who comes from a wealthy family of art dealers, is charged with helping finance a multimillion-dollar gambling ring.
According to NBC 4, “The organization's members used a sophisticated money-laundering scheme to move tens of millions of dollars of gambling proceeds from the former Soviet Union through shell companies in Cyprus into various investments and shell companies in the U.S., the indictment alleges.”
