Ethan 'Rampage' Yau estuvo a la altura de su apodo el miércoles por la noche mientras chapoteaba en el Hustler Casino en vivo juego de dinero en efectivo de alto riesgo. 'Rampage' no solo hizo una gran televisión, sino que también hizo su propia historia personal después de un enfrentamiento con la prometedora estrella de los juegos de efectivo.
