Shepard Smith anchors “Studio B” and “Fox Report” from the Pure nightclub at Ceasars Palace in Las Vegas Tuesday. So, naturally, he’s done an interview with the Las Vegas Sun to talk about his 15+ years with the network. And this being Las Vegas, the piece is rife with gambling locution.

Shepard Smith is a pretty good blackjack practitioner, so he recognizes quickly when the table is hot and when it is not.

Professionally, he’s been at the same table for 15 years.

Fox News Channel is the hottest table he’s played.

As for Smith’s take on FNC’s 15 years: “Mr. Ailes loves to win.”
