Now I did a little gambling myself the other day, but I started w/a $10 bet!! I got my little winnings off that & bounced!! The type of stuff I saw in that casino was crazy!!  People cash advancing their credit cards, putting up thousands of dollars on the table & LOSING thousands of dollars!! I can’t afford that, & apparently neither can Antoine, b/c a warrant was issued for his arrest for $822,500 in gambling debt. WALK AWAY!!

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Nev. – A day after a warrant was issued stemming from his $822,500 in gambling debts, Antoine Walker was arrested in Harrah’s Casino in South Lake Tahoe, Nev., on Wednesday night.

Walker was led out of the building in handcuffs, and is in Douglas County Jail with bail set at $87,000.

Walker is accused of three felony counts of writing bad checks. County prosecutors say he failed to make good on 10 checks totaling $1 million written to Caesars Palace, Planet Hollywood and the Red Rock Resort.

Walker’s lawyer in Las Vegas, Jonathan Powell, didn’t immediately respond Tuesday to messages.

Prosecutor Bernie Zadrowski told the Las Vegas Sun that Walker has repaid $178,000 of the debts incurred last July to January.

Walker last played for the Minnesota Timberwolves in 2008. He was an All-Star with the Boston Celtics, and won an NBA championship in 2006 with the Miami Heat. [SOURCE]
