The legendary John Henry “Doc” Holliday. Well, his early career definitely doesn’t have much in common with casinos and gambling. He was a dentist, born in 1851 in Griffin, Georgia. Like it often happens with strong people life wasn’t mild to Doc – aged only 23 he was diagnosed with tuberculosis.

Remember a scene in Tombstone where Wyatt Earp leads gambler Johnny Tyler out of the Oriental and into the street? Something like that really happened.

Tyler was head of a gambling group called The Slopers. In mid-February 1881, he pulled a gun on a dealer at the Oriental, trying to take over the game. That was when Earp disarmed Tyler, grabbed him by the ear and threw him out—while Doc Holliday kept Tyler’s friends at bay with a pistol. Tyler left town a couple of months later as the Earp faction controlled gambling in Tombstone.
