When you talk about the Russians and Greeks having "their fair share of action too," are you talking about sports betting? When was the last time there was a bookmaking bust in Chicago that involved an operation run by Russians or Greeks? The only thing that comes to mind is when Joseph "Pooch" Pascucchi and Demitri "Jimmy" Stavropolous (who's obviously Greek) were charged with bookmaking back in 2004. But they are both Chicago LCN associates.
