How about guys like Esfandiari, Laak, Sheikan ?

Esfandiari-Poker I believe

Laak-Worked on Wall Street for a while. Then played poker.

Sheikan-Tattoo shops I believe.

Didn't Laak play backgammon as well - probably helped his roll a bit. Plus wasn't there an incident with a safe in a New York club. Also, there is the guy who claimed that Laak had a lucrative import/export business between USA and Thailand. Of course, now he has access to half of Sam Simon's fortune.
