I've met him and read his book. Slim was better at proposition bets than he
was at poker and he was good at poker. Some of his bets were very clever
but the majority weren't for really big money by today's standards. I've
heard about the child molestation story but don't know if he was ever
convicted and I don't believe he ever served any prison time on that charge.

Gary Carson attended the trial and has read all of the court
transcripts, so you can ask him. He is the resident Amarillo Slim
expert.

If Gary Carson said it was Tuesday, I'd check a calendar.
