3. What do you mean he's a good gambler
From what I've read and heard, he lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. If we're going to gamble, let's at least use somebody competent, like the World Champion of Poker.

4. He lost MILLIONS - like around $ 7 million!

5. Another walrus.
You've seen them in National Geographic specials: Big and sluggish on land; they role over and squash smaller walrus pups. Their language is barking, snorting, and something like a belch.
