I see Amazon Prime has a Vinny Favorito documentary on it now. It’s 4.99 to rent. I played with him a few times at Flamingo back in 2008 or so. I know he owed and stiffed many people. The doc seems to cover some of this. Anyone seen the doc, or plan to?
honestly this documentary looks kindof awesome in the trailer.....will be watching tomorow
"Just Do Your Job"
"Discipline or Regret"
There are four reviews on Amazon so far. They are all five stars. I wonder if they are legit reviews or if they are from the director’s family and friends.

Thanks for bringing this doc to my attention. I'm definitely going to watch it tonight.
I love Las Vegas documentaries. Need to start a thread devoted to them.
Looks like the film was completed 3 years ago. It's 85 minutes long. The director also did "Poker Bustouts" (2005). Vinnie was also featured in that film.

This article says Favorito owed people over 1 million. The filmmakers took years to get the film done, even starting their own fence and gate company, to stay afloat at one point.
Favorito still has weekend shows in Vegas at Notoriety Live on East Fremont Street. Don't lend him money...
we saw him years ago at the flamingo i believe. he was funny. enjoyed the show.
