Found a 1000 dollar chip on the floor in a casino night club. We had gone for drinks n music after a wedding finished, and as i waited to buy a drink at the bar, i noticed a chip on the floor (bar was 3 people deep). I picked it up, looked at it, looked around (thought it was a prank), but no one was paying attention. So i just put it in my pocket, pretended nothing happened. Later i realized the chip was real, so i waited a week, went back with a friend, and played 40$ worth of black jack, then cached in the chip. The cash out clerk thought i was a regular, and thought she recognized me, paid me out, and that was that.
We enjoyed the band that was playing at the casino that night so much, my then fiancé and i used the 1000$ To down payment/hire the band to play at our wedding (band from Toronto called Parkside Drive). Needless to say, made for a cool story, as the most money i ever found.
Here’s the band at our wedding tuning up…
And Rockin’ out:

I buy scratchcards almost daily and most I’ve won is £100. A friend of mine bought a £3 scratchcard yesterday and won £300.000. Its not a massive amount of money but its definitely life changing.
My day will come

Well in my town casino I got 40€ on french bench once and I lost 20€ another time, never got back…
Got 10€ in euromillions over 10 years ago, lost more than that but not a regular.
And my biggest one was shared with a friend, we playes pomerstars many years ago and both at night smoking were able to cash in 250€, not bad at all.
But not a big gambler, no money for that.

oh youth, where did you go
The last time I played the Powerball was in 2000. I was feeling confident and cocky due to a couple really good years of top sales. It was a big win like this one. There I was in line at 7 eleven behind 5 people buying Powerball tickets and I got sucked into the mist. 150.00 dollars of five-dollar tickets. I got one # on all those tickets. Still kicked ass that year and many more. Gambling is like Alcohol “not one good thing ever came of it”

I live in CA, and one year after the Oregon Country Fair, maybe 1990, I was too broke to get home. I stopped at a friend’s house to say hello (he’s also a fair person) and he had a little poker game going on. I had less than $10. I won nearly $50, which just barely got me home! I literally had less than $1 when I walked into my house and the truck was on empty.
I don’t normally gamble, other than getting up each day (and one day I won’t be doing that).
