High stakes gamblers run in their own little circle. If he was on the illicit high stakes card circuit he could've met and become beholden to anyone. These high stakes groups meet in strange out of the way places. Our local small town video game hall had a secret backroom for the high rollers who would drive up from all over in the middle of the night. A lot like prohibition speakeasies.
Yup. It's a thing in Southern USA, dunno about elsewhere. Stuff Cockfights, dogfights and high stakes gambling all have their own little separate worlds. HIgh stakes gambling is the quietest of the three. Cockfights get rowdy.

Underground illegal gambling? Like meeting in a dark room and playing poker for real estate and things like that?
