Others may be more creative, more ambitious and more flamboyant, but nobody nobody on the modern scene today is as brilliant \\u2013 or as fortunate \\u2013 at making deals as Phil Ruffin. The 72-year-old Kansas billionaire sold the New Frontier land in 2007 for a record $35 million an acre before the real estate crash, and now he\\u2019s used a mere $775 million of that profit to pick up the Treasure Island. For the first time this hour, Ruffin discloses some new plans for the property, explains why he\\u2019s unlikely to ever buy a Harrah\\u2019s property and reveals the reason he\\u2019ll never build anything in Vegas. Plus, he dishes about Wynn, Trump, his young wife and the billionaires\\u2019 poker game he wins year after year.

In banter: Obama\\u2019s Vegas stage moment, Folies, Menopause and Scintas closing, Rita will go on and on, MGM Mirage\\u2019s reservation system woes, the F\\u2019Bleau will be finished, does anyone care about Joaquin Phoenix\\u2019s music career?
