High-roller claims casinos stuck him with pricey freebies after $100K win

He’s taking on Atlantic City.

A wealthy Long Island businessman and self-described “high-roller” gambler is suing a pair of ritzy Atlantic City casinos for begging him to spend his cash at their tables – and then sticking him with bills for pricey freebies they’d promised him when he proceeded to win more than $100,000, according to a Brooklyn federal lawsuit.

Millionaire gambler Darryl Abramowitz claims that breathless reps from the Borgata and Revel casinos repeatedly contacted him and offered up lavish complimentary amenities — from poolside cabanas to personal butlers — so he would blow his stacks of cash inside their gambling dens, according to his suit.

Abramowitz, of Merrick, claims that he is known as a heavy-hitting gambler across the country and is frequently lobbied to play at top gaming facilities, the suit states.

“By most, if not all standards, including the defendants herein, he is considered a ‘high roller…’ ” the suit states.

The blackjack whiz claims that Revel representative Frank Playo contacted him in March of 2012 and offered him “RFB” — casino slang for a free room, food and beverages.

In addition, Playo offered up a poolside cabana large enough to accommodate Abramowitz and his family, the suit states.

After spending three days at the facility, Abramowitz managed to rack up $23,000 in blackjack winnings and decided it was time to hit the road back to Long Island.

But after he got a $3,747 bill for his cabana celebration, Abramowitz complained to Revel officials who assured him that it was all a mistake, the suit states.

Abramowitz claims that Playo later reneged on his promise to reverse the charges and told him “you actually won some bets … you can handle your bill,” suit papers state.

“They do it all the time,” Abramowitz told The Post. “They promise you things and then don’t give them to you.”

The gambler also claims that Borgata representatives pestered him to come play at their complex — and offered him free room, food and beverage as well as $5,000 to blow at luxury stores in the casino.

But their enthusiasm for following through on the freebies receded after Abramowitz won a whopping $105,000.

Thinking it was all on the house, Abramowitz soon spent $900 on clothes at a Hugo Boss store and asked for a $500 voucher to the pricey “Old Homestead Steakhouse.”

“Although the Plaintiff had been told that he could bill everything through his room, which was comped along with the shopping and steakhouse bills, after he left, all such expenses that were placed on his credit card were not removed,” the suit states.

Abramowitz claims that a Borgata rep balked when he asked for his money to be returned. “We are running a business here — we don’t need customers like you.”

His attorney, Brian Davis, said that casinos are far less willing to follow through on comp requests when players are winning.

“If my client was down $100,000 they would do anything they could to have him stay,” he said. “He was up, he decided it was time to walk away, and they didn’t like that.”

Revel and Borgata reps did not immediately return calls for comment.
