"I spent a lot of time in the casino, my dad had a gambling problem, it’s sad to watch your hero fall but he pulled himself out and away from that but the things I’ve seen…
Seen a blind Chinese man come in with his bodyguards to help him gamble
I’ve seen couples blow their entire money and just stand there looking at each other half in tears
I sat next to a woman who lost it all and just couldn’t bring herself to get off the chair because reality wasn’t setting in
My dad used to really hit it big, and once he would make me play on one machine and he plays on the other…. His was losing and mine started winning big I got shoved off that seat so fast….
I don’t miss that place it’s full of greed and misery."

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.
