DON JOHNSON - DON JOHNSON.S A GENEROUS GAMBLER

Generous DON JOHNSON invited a casino croupier to help him celebrate a spectacular blackjack win - by writing him an $8,000 (GBP5,300) cheque.

The NASH BRIDGES star - who was recently alleged to have been stopped on the German-Swiss border with a suitcase containing $8 billion - struck lucky at the BELLAGIO casino in Las Vegas recently, winning $44,000, (GBP30,000).

A fellow gambler tells British tabloid the DAILY SPORT, "When he was through, he stood up and said to the dealer, 'Dude, are you married?' When the dealer said he was, Don wrote out a cheque."
