When Dana White was banned from the Palms Casino for winning too much money

Dana White, the president of the UFC, is well-known for his love of gambling and has won substantial amounts in Las Vegas casinos, his adopted home.

However, due to his high-stakes gambling style, he has been banned from playing at some of the top casinos in the city, including the Wynn and the Palms casino.

A lesser-known aspect of Dana White is his exceptional blackjack abilities. He has a long history of placing high stakes bets and winning large amounts of money, to the point where some casinos have asked him to refrain from playing due to his tendency to win big.

It has been reported that he has won up to $7 million in a single night during some of his lucky streaks. Despite rumors that the UFC boss has confessed that he is not permitted to play at a number of Las Vegas' premier casinos owing to his high-stakes games.

Watch the UFC supermo discuss his gambling abilities and the casinos blacklisting him here:

The UFC president Dana White is a multi-millionaire, with an estimated net worth of $9 million, owing mostly to his efforts in growing the MMA organization from a $2 million value to its $4 billion+ sale in 2016.

However, he has remained a regular in specific casinos whenever he has the opportunity to compete during pauses in his hectic schedule.

Dana White defends controversial pay scale for Power Slap fighters

Since its inception, Dana White's Power Slap League has been under scrutiny for negative attention.

Since its premiere on TBS on January 18, 2023, the ferocity of the sport has alarmed both fans and experts. Furthermore, it has since been revealed that the Power Slap League contestants get paid a meager salary.

Former UFC middleweight Eric Spicely, who was approached for the tournament, claimed that the offering was $2,000 for the show and $2,000 for the win.

In response to public criticism, White provided a barely plausible justification for the compensation structure:

"This is how MMA started too. Boxing undercards make this kind of money still. Educate yourself before you open the YAP."
