A Few Out-Of-The-Box Gambling Anecdotes

Jokes and puns aren’t the only things that can bring life to a long gambling game. There are always stories about people and incidents at casinos that are sure to amaze everyone who hears about them. A few amazing stories that would leave your listeners in complete amazement are listed below:

• The Glorious Grandma who won 154 rolls in just one row!

People who wish to avoid the seriousness of Las Vegas and Macau often turn to the next most favourable gambling city in the world, Atlantic City. Even though it doesn’t top the list of the most loved gambling cities, it has definitely witnessed some amazing incidents!

Patricia Demauro, a sweet Grandma, managed to win despite unimaginable odds of 1.56 trillion to 1. She laid down her bet of $100 in a round of craps at a table at the Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa in Atlantic City. She continued to win for the next 154 rolls on the bounce over a period of more than 4 hours.

She attained a Guinness World Record for the longest number of rolls and the player with the most successive wins on a game of craps. Way to go, Granny!

• Limit your booze, or you’re guaranteed to lose

Casinos, often gladly, offer complimentary drinks and discounts to customers who play for long durations. However, casinos find this to be in their favour, as people appreciate this gesture and often play a few more rounds.

However, it would be best if you always controlled how much you drink. A bit too much would lead to loss of focus, and you’re sure to go on a losing streak.

In a similar case, Terrence Watanabe took the Caesars Palace and Rio All-Suite in 2007 to the court claiming they gave him too much alcohol and painkillers to make him lose his focus. According to sources, he claimed that this is what led to him losing $127 million through bets.

However, Watanabe’s plea was disregarded since he had previously been banned from Wynn Casino for drinking too much on the casino floor. Next time just download casinos,Watanabe!

Be a better boozer, not a sore loser.

• The kid that killed it!

Another incident that makes it to our list of amazing stories is that of an 8-year-old boy, Aashish Nanak, who managed to get his hands on his uncle’s poker game.

While most of the kids we know would’ve blown-off all the cash in our accounts, Aashish had other plans. He won more than Rs. 22,915,500 ($500,000) by playing on online poker rooms. No one knows how he pulled off this feat, but he did.

The poker room refused to pay the money later claiming to be unaware of the fact that he was such a small kid. While we hope that the case in the New Delhi Court helped Aashish get the money he won, what we’re certain of is that he was referred to as “the little poker wiz” by all the staff of the website.

Great work, champ!
