The fan said, "It was around 3am, he was still gambling. We asked for a picture, and he said no. He told us he was too upset to talk, take pix or sign autographs cuz he just lost $40,000 in gambling, and he needed to win it back before anything."
Several celebrities including Charles Barkley, Tobey Maguire, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio have been reported to be having gambling problems.
