Wynn Resorts (Macau) and Wynn Las Vegas have filed writs in a Hong Kong court against a VIP gambler who allegedly owes them US$6.75 million, local media report.

Henry Mong (also known as Meng Hengli according to High Court documents quoted by the newspaper) racked up some of the debt in Macau and then threw good money after bad by trying to recoup the losses at Wynn’s Las Vegas tables.

According to the reports, Mr Mong was only given credit in Vegas because he wrote a cheque to cover most of his earlier Macau losses. Unfortunately the cheque bounced.
