I started playing craps with my boss last year with $200. I ran out of money so he tossed me $50 and I cashed out with over $1500 after I gave him $300 for the initial $50.

I won about $6,200 on a progressive jackpot at an online casino once. I was afraid they wouldn't pay but they did.

Dad walked away from the craps table with over 35k. He's had multiple trips when he's walked away with 15-25k. Most I've seen him hit is 12k.

Casinos love people who say that they can beat casino games

I loved arguing with these idiots when I lived in Las Vegas, or even when I lived in DFW and argued with the morons who said they had their systems when going to WinStar

At least you did something concrete with your winnings. Most people just gamble it away on the next trip.

When I was around 18-19, I won around $3,500 on a slot machine, and I thought my life had changed.

Then I saw someone a few years later hit around $350,000 on a progressive slot machine, and you'd have to take a pulse to see if they were alive because they acted like it was no big deal. They must have been one of those daily slot players.

Won 10k on a slot when I was 23 at the Caesers across the river from Louisville KY. It was a $1 Xs 10 machine. Hit a red 7 with 2 times 10s. Took the cash option. I think they only took like $280 out right away for the Indiana state tax and I filed Federal on my own
Won over 2500 a few times on poker tournaments back in the days when I played a lot before I had kids and responsibilities

My 3rd cousin's step-dad's grandfather was one of the key players in making keno a fixture at casinos.

I have a 2nd cousin that won $980,000 on the slots in Vagas about 20 years ago. The casino threw in what was needed to make it a cool million.

Won about $2k in Vegas a long time ago over a 4 day span. Got very lucky. My friend from high school won just over $1M in Biloxi in college playing slots.

pai gow, or as I like to call it.....dragon poker....has to be the best odds in the casino.

I mean it's all Asians, and they are a more advanced people. They're in the know.

$11,000.00 on a hot crap table at Ceasars Palace mid 80's with Lou Dobbs, who was with CNN at the time on the dice. Picked it up and walked away. Only other time I've gambled was about the first month video poker started- $10 in machine royal flush $500.00. I have never gambled since.
