Las Vegas billionaire and gambling guru Sheldon Adelson is at it again, supporting pro-GOP super PACs.  On Wednesday it was revealed that he had given $10 million to a pro-Mitt Romney super PAC.

Should Romney get elected, you can probably forget about online poker becoming legalized at the federal level.  Adelson doesn’t want it!

The odds of Romney becoming the next President of the United States have increased over at Sportsbook, where Obama had slipped to just slightly better than even odds. 

Adelson reportedly donated significant amounts of money towards super PACs supporting then GOP candidate Newt Gingrich. 

Forbes Magazine has ranked Adelson among the top 10 wealthiest Americans with a net worth of $20 billion.
