"Ex-casino worker here. I saw way too many people spend ridiculous amounts of money on gambling. I've seen little kids asleep in chairs outside the casino floor cause their parents were busy gambling. A gentleman had a heart attack at a poker table and other gamblers were pissed cause we had to stop the games so EMS could come.
Saddest one though was a lady who wanted to cash a check made out to the electric company. She wanted to know if she could scratch out the company name and write in the casino name. I told her we could not do that."

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.
