Andre Agassi
LAS VEGAS native Andre Agassi has announced that the ‘06 U.S. Open will be his last pro tourney. The eight-time Grand Slam champion won the open twice - in 1994 and 1999. You bet the folks in Sin City are pulling for their local boy to go out with another win.

PEOPLE ARE always asking me if there’s a foolproof method to picking a hot slot machine ... The players at Caesar’s Indiana found such a machine, without a jackpot being hit or a reel being spun. Huh?
Seems the machine’s bill validator was set to read Philippine currency, so when players inserted a $100 bill the machine registered $1,000 in credits. Akamai players immediately cashed out! Two days and $487,000 later, that’s the kind of hot machine we’d all like to meet.
