Rick Salomon

Rick Salomon is one of those figures whose fame and infamy are hopelessly tangled. Most people know him for a 2004 tabloid scandal, but what actually interests me is the gambler underneath. Winning millions at the World Series of Poker's Big One for One Drop demands ice-cold nerve, and that high-roller temperament seems to govern his whole life, from the poker table to a string of high-profile marriages. He is a quintessential product of a certain Hollywood underbelly. I would not call him admirable, exactly, but I do find his sheer appetite for risk strangely magnetic.
