Judge orders Las Vegas bettor 'Vegas Dave' to turn over assets after unpaid $30.2M judgment

A Las Vegas judge has ordered David Oancea — better known as sports bettor “Vegas Dave” — to turn over assets after finding he failed to comply with an earlier court order tied to an unpaid $30.2 million judgment.

What happened

A court is trying to enforce a $30.2 million judgment against David Oancea, the Las Vegas sports bettor known as \u201CVegas Dave.\u201D The latest order requires him to surrender assets after the court found he had not followed an earlier directive to do so.

The key number

The central figure is a $30.2 million judgment issued roughly a year before this latest order. The new ruling is not a new judgment amount; it is an enforcement step tied to the unpaid judgment already on the books.

Did he comply?

According to the judge\u2019s finding, Oancea did not comply with the previous order requiring him to turn over assets. That noncompliance is the reason the court has now issued another order focused on asset turnover.
