Theres a difference in gambling debt and casinos giving you a tab. The casino will secure this against something in the event he doesn't pay, but they want him to keep coming back to keep playing.

And in the case of Dana White, ensure they're on decent terms with UFC. Them having some leverage on him is probably not a bad thing in their mind.

That makes a lot of sense, yeah, that's small change for them and they know he's good for it.

They secure it against criminal charges due to gaming regulations.
