I didn't know this. But his casino in NY, played out a gambler, they basically got that gambler into the position of owing money. (He had already been draining the casino by winning). When he lost he owed the casino money but the Japanese Mafia killed him before he could pay it.

I think that was talked about in the documentary Hyper Normalization by Adam Curtis. It's on yt if you're interested.
