The One and Only Bro Yip Hon -
nicknamed Kwai Wong (鬼王) (translated as Ghost King.)
Bro Yip Hon
Yip Hon (simplified Chinese: 叶汉; traditional Chinese: 葉漢; pinyin: Yè Hàn; Jyutping: Yip6 Hon3) (1904 – 7 May 1997) was a gambling tycoon in South China. His wealth was estimated to be HK$ 100 million.[when?] In his childhood, he stayed in Kong Mun of Kwangtung, and usually participated in gambling with his pocket money. He was nicknamed Kwai Wong (鬼王) (translated as Ghost King.)[1]
In his adulthood, he was in Macau, working for a casino of gambling tycoon Fu Lo Yung (傅老榕). He helped to crack down Teng Sik Tong (聽骰黨), a gang of gamblers, who won by listening dice. After the crackdown, he became famous, and went to Shanghai. He gained a great sum of wealth in the casinos there, by his technique in listening dice, and then opened his own casino.
He closed his business in Shanghai, and returned to Macau when the Second Sino-Japanese War broke out. He soon got a casino license in Macau, and cooperated with Stanley Ho, Teddy Yip and Henry Fok to form Casino Lisboa. He later left the company, after arguments over shares and the business. He then started a chariot racing business, which was unsuccessful. In 1988, he pioneered a gambling business in international waters, by purchasing a cargo converted cruise ship named Princess of the Orient, and later selling it off for the 港龍星 which was bigger and solely a cruise ship to begin with. He gained initial success, but was unable to deal with a large number of competitors later. He subsequently sold his business to Heung's Brothers.
A story about him circulated in the mid-1980s, on gambling in Las Vegas in the United States. He supposedly played for 32 hours continuously, involving more than 3,800 rounds of Baccarat. He ended up losing US$2 million. The owner of the casino offered him a Rolls-Royce if he could win back a million. Two days after, he won US$3 million and the car from the casino.
Death
Yip Hon suffered a heart attack, and died on 7 May 1997, at the age of 93, while poring over a horse-racing newsletter.

Gambling ships spin web of intrigue

UPDATED : Friday, 27 August, 1993, 12:00am
POLICE probing the murky world of Hong Kong's casino ships face a high stakes industry where ownership is obscured behind a web of offshore companies.
Three local companies manage four ships, all registered with ''flags of convenience'' and all raising the ire of Macau casino king Stanley Ho.
The 25-year-old New Orient Princess, now ablaze beached off Junk Bay, has undergone four name changes on paper in the past 12 months.
Lloyd's Shipping Intelligence may list a Panamanian company, Gatmore Enterprises, as its final owners, but Post sources said the ship was controlled by a small group of local high-rolling punters turned investors.
The source, until recently a shareholder, said that to turn a profit the owners must attract big bets to compete with Mr Ho's established set-up in Macau.
''It's undisciplined and dangerous, not a good a trade to be in when the owners are playing your money as if they were on the other side of the table.
''These people are gamblers themselves, they lure in their friends and they seek big money.'' The ships also attract professional gamblers whose faces are often unwelcome in Macau.
The New Orient Princess was linked two years ago to a niece of the ageing Yip Hon, an arch-rival and former partner of Mr Ho.
The woman has since left, but the vessel's investors pushed the link to Mr Yip to lend credibility to their operation, the source said.
South American topless dancers, restaurants, saunas and duty-free shops are all provided to pull in extra money, but it is at the tables that the real profits are made.
'When you've only got a few hours to gamble, you gamble . . . you can get a woman any time,'' the source said.
The extreme risks in high-stakes play were recently revealed in the Post after one gambler managed to clean out the bank on the Queen of Jin Jiang - one of the New Orient Princess' rivals - in a single evening of blackjack and baccarat in May.
The ship has since been sold back to a Shanghai corporation and is under urgent repair.
Its agents, Win Peak, were considered direct rivals to the firm that manages the New Orient Princess, Sovereign Superb Shipping Limited.
Company management refused to comment yesterday.
Now the modern Delfin Star is the only gambling ship taking to the water each night, but its agents, MSL Shipping Management, are trying to reincarnate the original Orient Princess.
Mr Ho, who has been angered by ship touts stalking the floors of his Macau casinos, is now exerting political pressure in Macau to stop the trade before it eats up his profits.

As mentioned previously, maybe that's his mistress who helps him manage the day to day operations.
Saw them once together in the returning ferry to TMFT.
A tall and rather slim lady in her thirties.
Sis Sally can confirm further?
Heard this yesterday.
SINGAPORE: Marina Bay Sands saw its net revenues and EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) drop in the first quarter of the year, according to parent company Las Vegas Sands on Thursday (Apr 21).
According to its financial report for the quarter, Marina Bay Sands saw net revenue fall US$181.1 million (S$243.7 million) to US$603.7 million in the three months to Mar 31. Only Food & Beverage had a positive year-on-year change, reaching US$46 million from US$45.2 million the year before, the report showed.
As for its Adjusted Property EBITDA, it fell a third to US$274.9 million during the same time period, it added.
"The stronger US dollar negatively impacted the financial results and key performance indicators of Marina Bay Sands in Singapore in the current quarter," said Las Vegas Sands of the financial performance in the press release.
"Low win percentage on Rolling Chip play also negatively impacted our reported financial results."
The company's Rolling Chip win percentage of 1.42 per cent in the first quarter of 2016 was below the expected range and considerably below the 3.41 per cent achieved in the first quarter of 2015, it said.

So which Bro here went to MBS to 'broke' them?
Bro Raiders? Bro Happy007? Sis Sally? Bro Alvin? Or any other Bros?
Not me. That quarter, I lost almost $7k in my 2 trips to prevent them from downgrading my platinum status.
In the end, still missed by 60 over points and got downgraded to Gold and also took away all my points!:*:
Self ban myself to all local casinos including AP & AW.
