The actor's wife cancels family's summer plans to help him overcome his addiction

Just because Ben Affleck is currently busy filming the latest installment of the Superman franchise, which is called “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” it doesn't mean that he doesn't find the time to indulge in the things he likes, like winning big bucks at the blackjack table in whatever casino is available.

Star Magazine reports that the actor just got kicked out of another casino, after the famous Las Vegas incident some two months ago, which is causing his wife Jennifer Garner to take active measurements to combat his addiction.

Affleck is supposed to be filming on the set in Detroit, Michigan, but reports have him going out to the local casinos every chance he gets, instead on focusing to spend more time with his family. Understandably, Jennifer Garner is not pleased.

There is a reason why Affleck was red-flagged in Las Vegas and told to stay away from the blackjack tables in the Hard Rock casino. As it turns out, he's actually very good at taking the casino's money, we're talking Rain Man good, which has caused many to think he's counting cards. And casinos don't like that, which is why he's getting banned.

This time, Ben was spotted at the Caesars Windsor Hotel and Casino in Windsor, Ontario, which is said to be just 10 minutes away from downtown Detroit. He went to the high roller table where hands are played for thousands of dollars.

An insider reveals that “Ben walked in and went straight to the card games. His hair was a disaster, and he looked like a mess! He sat down and played for roughly 20 minutes before security heard he was there. They made the dealers stop what they were doing and asked him to leave. Ben seemed pretty mad.”

Another person present at the scene claims that Ben was in such disarray that he had a hard time recognizing him, “It took me a minute to realize it was Ben Affleck. He looked disheveled and upset while sitting there gambling. He seemed really frazzled like he had just lost a ton of money. He was smoking a cigarette and his head was down in his arms. When he sat up his eyes looked bloodshot, like he’d been there all night!”

Naturally, this has drawn a reaction from his actress wife, who is now worried that Ben is heading down a slippery path. There is talk that she's canceled the summer family trip that would have had them join Affleck in Detroit.
