'Little Al from Princeton, controls a lot of the action around Jersey.'
from NPR, 23 Oct 2010:
"Einstein actually enjoyed gambling," Ouellette says.
As legend as it, the father of relativity loved to play craps and blackjack in Las Vegas, where he once met Nick the Greek, one of the greatest poker players of all time.
"Nick introduced him to all his gambling buddies — knowing that they wouldn't know who Einstein was — as 'Little Al from Princeton, controls a lot of the action around Jersey.' "
