A chauffeured limo takes you to the airport where you are whisked away to Las Vegas on a private jet. There you are greeted by your private butler who shows you the 5-bedroom Super Suite in your favorite casino. Your surroundings are replete with antiques, marbles, silks, and priceless works of art. Welcome to the exclusive domain of the ultra-high rollers, known to those in the gaming industry as “whales.” Among other things, this special reveals how casinos will not rent out their “Super Suites” at any price – they’re strictly invitation-only. With only about 5000 mega-gamblers worldwide big enough to rate “whale” status, it’s a pretty small guest list. But for these privileged few, the sky’s the limit! Premiered on Travel Channel, USA.

Using dramatic reenactments and lively location footage set in and around the glittering casinos of Las Vegas, we’ll spin tall tales of the famous and the infamous — the kind of strange sagas that could only happen in the extravagant universe of the Vegas gaming elite.

They operate the tables, they enforce the rules, and they decide who wins, who loses, and who gets to keep playing. They are the money-keepers, the money-givers, and the money-takers; their word is law. Follow real-life VEGAS DEALERS for the only true inside look at the casino gaming world.
