Remind MeDaren starts off with one max bet at the craps table. Then he plays baccarat with three friends who are seniors from the University
of Arizona: Mallory and David and their friend Bethany, who raises show lambs for livestock shows. Afterwards, he moves on
to play roulette with Chris, a young man newly returned from serving in the Army in Afghanistan, and his father, Arlo. While
they play, Daren surprises Chris with a skydiving trip! He then plays high roller blackjack with fitness instructor Brandy
from South Carolina and her brother-in-law, Tim, a surgical tech who lives in Las Vegas. Daren finishes the day playing high
limit blackjack solo.
More on Arlo and Chris:
Arlo (age 47) and Chris (age 22) are a father and son team from Iowa City, Iowa. Arlo and Chris came to Las Vegas on vacation
to celebrate Chris' safe return from a tour of duty in Afghanistan as a specialist in the United States Army, providing security
for soldiers involved in the reconstruction of Afghanistan. Chris returns to the University of Iowa in the fall as a sophomore.
More on Bethany:
Bethany (age 21) from Tucson, Ariz., was on her very first weekend getaway to Las Vegas with her best friends Mallory and
David when she met Daren. Planning on attending the University of Arizona to study veterinary science, Bethany has raised
show lambs for livestock shows with the Future Farmers of America since she was a teenager and hopes to run her own farm one
day. Her boyfriend recently returned from service as a cavalry scout in Baghdad and is currently stationed in San Antonio,
Texas.
