Stories like that shouldn't make people think that gambling is a solution to their financial problems. People tend to notice the lucky outcomes like in this story, but statistically there's more bad outcomes, when people lost their last money while trying to desperately grab some quick cash. It can be used when you have nothing to lose, but usually it's better to find some real solution to financial problems, as you can just bust completely or fall in debt. You need to make careful decisions and think about all possible outcomes before going to casino with your last money.

Lucky for him that he was able to win on that amount that he have but lets us say what if thos $5k of him lose it all on playing? for sure he will regret and make the situation even more worse but things goes on his plan and win and able to grow the money he capitalize.Just pure luck and skills i guess since card games does require knowledge and skills specially on luck but we shouldnt try this option if we do have money.

Desperate move from desperate man, still, story is amazing, only thing i don't understand is why didn't he loan money from bank.
Unfortunately there are only few stories like this, and thousands stories from people who were desperate and actually lost money and destroyed their life - i don't see anyone is telling their story.

Never seen this story before & sure it's great that he managed to get lucky but the majority of people who gamble like this don't.

If you're in a desperate situation this isn't the way to go guys. One man got lucky, how many wouldn't be so lucky.
