Tommy Tune to Conclude
Successful Two-Year Engagement
In 'EFX' Show at MGM Grand

LAS VEGAS, NV - MGM Grand Hotel and Casino officials announced November 29 that nine-time Tony Award winner Tommy Tune would leave his headline role in the award-winning "EFX'' stage production in January 2001. His final performance in the show will be Saturday, January 13. A new star for ``EFX'' will be announced in the near future.

Tune leaves "EFX'' having realized a dream come true as a Las Vegas headliner and will return to the East Coast to pursue other dreams yet unfulfilled. "This whole experience at the MGM Grand has been 'EFX-citing,''' said Tune. "I've really and truly loved performing and living these past two years in fabulous Las Vegas.''

Bill Wray, musical director for "EFX,'' said, "Tune brought 'EFX' to an entirely new genre in his two years at the MGM Grand and is one of the most amazingly multi-talented individuals I've worked with in the industry.''

Tickets for the remaining performances of "EFX'' starring Tommy Tune can be purchased by calling MGM Grand Reservations at (800) 929-1111 or by visiting www.mgmgrand.com.

MGM Grand is a wholly owned subsidiary of MGM MIRAGE.


Seven Defendants Agree to Guilty
Pleas In Race-fixing Case

By George Strawley
Associated Press

HARRISBURG, PA (AP) -- Seven of nine defendants accused of fixing more than a dozen horse races at Penn National have agreed to plead guilty, a federal prosecutor said November 30.

The two horse owners and five jockeys could receive as much as five years in jail and $250,000 in fines each, said U.S. Attorney David M. Barasch.

The defendants agreed to plead guilty to charges of conspiracy to fix a sporting event in papers filed in U.S. District Court.

Authorities said horse owners George D. Berryhill and Neil McElwee paid bribes of as much as $1,000 to the jockeys, who were told to hold back favored horses.

Jockey Ramon Pena acted as the middleman in the scheme, prosecutors said. Fifteen races between January and May were targeted, they said.

Jockey Felix Pinero is scheduled for a trial in January after pleading innocent. Another jockey, Manuel F. Torres, was declared a fugitive after failing to appear in court.

The track is owned by Penn National Gaming Inc., which also owns the Pocono Downs harness racing track near Wilkes-Barre, 11 off-track betting facilities and Charles Town Races in West Virginia. The company also has two casinos in Mississippi and has agreed to buy a Louisiana riverboat casino.

LAS VEGAS, NV - Michael Kalinin of Napa, CA won a BMW Z3 Roadster on a quarter James Bond Golden Eye slot machine December 2 at Circus Circus Hotel Casino.

LONDON, ENGLAND - A 42-year-old British TV director has won the £1m (approx. $1.437 million US) top prize in a poker tournament billed as the world's largest November 19. John Duthie (photo right) scooped the jackpot with a victory over Teddy "Sugar Teddy" Tuil from Tel Aviv, Israel. Mr Duthie, who says friends would describe him as "meek", declared: "The feeling is euphoric. It is the most tremendous feeling in the world, I feel like I have gone through so much through the last four or five days. I am completely exhausted. "All I can say is I hope my wife is watching. She absolutely hates poker, she said to me `why are you going over there, you won't win'. When I phone her to tell her I have won £1m she'll probably just say `can you pick up the kids from school?'" Mr. Duthie, who has played poker for nine years, eventually triumphed with a full house - two aces and three eights.

MASHANTUCKET, CT - A lucky player won the latest instant-winner jackpot of $204,603.07 on the Betty Boop-themed wide-area progressive system November 2 at Foxwoods Resort Casino.
