Dana White Has Had His Action Cut By Some Las Vegas Casinos
Published on March 18th, 2024 11:37 am ESTDana White is the President of the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship).
Dana White lives in Las Vegas and loves to play blackjack. White has hundreds of millions of dollars in his bank account and loves playing blackjack at the highest limits possible.
And, unfortunately for some of the casinos in Las Vegas, White knows what he is doing at the blackjack table.
There are always rumors circulating that Dana White has been banned from some Las Vegas casinos due to his winning ways at the blackjack tables.
Is this true?
The answer - no.
In a video that was posted online a few years ago, Dana White got a call from a Las Vegas casino manager, informing him that his blackjack limits were being reduced, due to some recent big wins.
Casinos are allowed to reduce limits on customers - this is pretty standard.
In the video, White informed the manager that he was "done" playing in their casino, and would take his action somewhere else.
Was White banned from this casino? No, but he had his action reduced, which resulted in him taking his business somewhere else.

According to White, a number of Vegas casinos - including the Palms, Mirage and Wynn - have limited his action at one time or another.
Other casinos - such as Caesars Palace and the Bellagio - have continued to let him play at the limits that he desires.
This is an interesting dance that casinos and Dana White have, as casinos don't want to get out of the Dana White business, as the UFC generates a tremendous amount of business in the town every year.
You don't want to upset Dana White too much, but you also don't want to lose millions at the blackjack tables.
So - Dana White hasn't been banned from any Las Vegas casinos, but he certainly has had his action reduced.
