"Black Book" is the nickname frequently used to refer to a list of people who are unwelcome in casinos. The name is due to the people listed being blacklisted. The term can refer either to such a list officially maintained by a particular gaming control board or, in the US, to the Griffin Book, whose information is shared among subscribing casinos. The book consists of 39 individuals with the most recent addition being Mathew Bowyer, known primarily as the illegal book keeper involved in the Shohei Ohtani gambling scandal. According to technologist Jeff Jonas, "Casinos face legal and financial risk if they let the wrong people play. People with gambling addictions can place themselves on exclusionary lists, and can actually sue casinos if they are allowed to place bets."
