PHOTOGRAPHY BY JIM DECKER S tanding within eyeshot of his perpetually hap- pening nightclub Su r render, Sea n Ch r ist ie positions himself at the head of a craps table. Slimly built, wearing a tuxedo shirt with a casually undone bow tie, a gorgeous woman at his side, and equally hot dice in his right hand, he cuts a dapper fig ure. Christie comes off as the consummate high roller, w it h a bit of inside k nowledge a nd a good chance at a decent-sized score. Then a heavyset fel- low bumbles up to the felt, fishes for cash, fumbles his chips, and, well, we can all guess what happens next. The scenario could have come right from the world of Christie, who until recently was an avid dice player. But no. It 's a n exa mple of a r t im it at ing life in L a s Vegas. Chr ist ie is play ing a cha racter; t he clumsy gambler is Kevin James portraying Paul Blart (of Paul Blart: Mall Cop fame). The scene is one of many being shot at Wynn and Encore for the sequel to the misad- vent u re, Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2, built a round t he oafish security guard's attempts to recover valuable artworks stolen from Steve Wynn.
