"Not a casino employee, but I used to work at a bank. Had a customer asking about something on her account, so I was reviewing her statement and saw these frequent $2,000 withdrawals at the casino nearby. In the one statement I was looking at, there were over $10K in withdrawals, and this customer’s total account balance was somewhere around $60K. I started going backward in her statements and found she had sold a house and received something like $700K less than a year ago, and had steadily gambled it almost all away, month by month. It was one of the most depressing things I saw there, which is saying a lot at a bank."

Glad I never developed the taste for gambling.

What a stupid idiot. Blame others for his own faults, life decisions and his addiction. Let Darwin sort him out.

Was at a casino and took away a 5 figure amount. Had to work a year for it :). But in that time I saw elderly ready at 13:00 to blast away their retirements. Blackjacker with a stack of 10k chips on the table (you know, the BIG rectangular ones). Oil-sheiks that got a private roulette room with a minimal 1000 euro bet. We also found forged chips. But our policies made sure we hardly came across these sad stories I read here.
Oh, and the training facilities for croupiers were a lot of fun to be. We learned to explain the payout of slotmachines. To do that, we would fill them up with (training) coins and start playing. Some machines you could bet 5 coins on each of the 7 winlines. So 35 coins in a single push of a button, gone. You could have a bucket of coins, spend a few minutes filling the machine with m, and then play it away in 60 seconds.
