Former NFL Star Ordered to Pay $64,000 Gambling Debt
Kroy Biermann, former Atlanta Falcons linebacker, has been ordered by a Georgia state judge to pay a $64,000 gambling debt to the Baha Mar Casino. The debt was accrued on a trip to the property in the Bahamas in November 2021. The court ordered payment to Sky Warrior, the credit and casino credit line service provider for the casino. The judge in the case made the final order for repayment on March 17.
Biermann and his wife Ariana Zolciak are now in divorce proceedings following well-publicized financial issues. The couple's financial struggles include having the family’s home foreclosed on in August 2022.
Biermann played eight seasons with the Falcons, recording 331 sacks and 23.5 sacks, and two interceptions. Gambling debt isn’t a new revelation for professional athletes. In 2019, The Cosmopolitan Las Vegas sued San Jose Sharks forward Evander Kane for $500,000 over unpaid markers. In 2017, a Chinese gold medalist from the 1996 Olympics was sued by a casino in Singapore over an alleged gambling debt.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
