...Archie Karas that is. I watched the start of Archie's run to $40 million in 1993, when he was playing Bobby Baldwin pool at the Rum Runner here in Las Vegas for $20,000 a set. The stake money was kept on top of the pool table light, in a brown paper bag. I first met Archie in the late 70's when I still lived in Los Angeles. Being barred from casinos is going to kill Archie!
