Dana White might not be cageside for UFC Vegas 105 on Saturday, because he’s got a chance to win $10 million at a baccarat tournament also being held in Las Vegas.
The UFC CEO revealed late Friday on Instagram that he was invited to participate in the event along with a $20,000 gift in promotional chips just for participating in the tournament. The invitation came along with a framed $1,000 bill from MGM Resorts.

Of course, White is no stranger to participating in massive gambling ventures.
In fact, he’s actually playing for less in prize money than he already earned in at least one of his baccarat streaks after revealing massive wins while playing at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas back in 2024.
“Caesars Palace … I clipped these guys for $1 million a night from, like, the first week of January all the way into March,” White told the Full Send podcast. “I beat these guys for like $26 million, $27 million.”
White has often praised Caesars for allowing high rollers like himself to continue gambling and making huge sums of money when other casinos have actually shut him down in the past. The UFC boss claimed the casino allowed him to wager $350,000 per hand, which was only offered to White and a few other high-profile clients.
White loves gambling at Caesars so much he called the casino “gangster” for the way he’s been treated there.
Judging by the post White made about the baccarat tournament, he’ll be participating in the two-day event on April 5 and April 6 with UFC Vegas 105 set for Saturday night at the UFC APEX where Josh Emmett clashes with Lerone Murphy in the main event.
