Some Crazy Fun Facts About Casinos And Gambling You Might Not Know.

[wxa7115]

In some prisons we have what we call VIP suits most especially in some highly underdeveloped countries where the rate of corruption and system manipulation is evident, I read somewhere where VIP prisoners are allowed to go to nightclubs and even walk freely within the town all because they can afford that luxury of life through corrupt prison officials.

So gambling inside the prison is a little thing for them and that is one of the major reasons why there is always gang war in the same prison and they can even plan they escape from there, so what are we saying gambling in prison is a history long story and a lot needs to be done to eradicate that from prison that is if it is possible to do that.

Gambling is not only prevalent among the prisoners that have a lot of influence but among the whole inmate population, after all even something as simple as a single coin can be used to create a gambling game around it.

So when we think about this it should not be strange at all to find a lot of gambling in almost any prison around the world, even those which are located in countries in which their religion or the law forbids this practice.

Maybe gambling in prison is entertainment for them and they use things other than money to gamble. It's still like people who play gambling out there, even though the methods and items used to gamble are different from what people use. Gambling can get many people, especially those curious about how to play gambling so will try it. The same will happen in prison because if a fellow inmate has experience playing gambling, he will try to gamble in prison.

I mean if you consider it, prisoners have a limited number of activities that they could do, gambling or specifically, card (e.g. poker, blackjack) games are one of them. It's relatively simple of material as well so I don't think there'd be suspicions of anything illegal being entered through it.

what inspired the FedEx story is how the right decision was made by the owner in using the money left in his pocket to bet it on the gambling table

I often hear of people who use the money left in their pockets to gamble but most of them end up losing, and the story of the FedEx owner is really risky to be imitated by those who still can't control themselves

I wouldn't even call the FedEx story an inspirational type of thing since in a sense, gambling it all away is also a form of giving up. That specific case was just the man being plain lucky, nothing more and nothing else. People shouldn't really view it as anything more than that.

I'm familiar with the roullete "00" is harder to hit as compare to "0", that's why I don't play that version. I'm more on the single ")" because there were times that I got lucky and win some.

Been to Vegas and it's my first time to see slot machine all over, like even in a convenient store or in the airport, maybe I was just culture shock that time because I only know that they are just available inside the casinos.

Well gambling is a big part of the culture of those living at Las Vegas and you will be hard pressed to find anyone there that does not gamble once in a while so it makes sense that slot machines are everywhere, we must also remember that slots is one of the most profitable gambling games there are for the casinos, which is the main reason that if you visit any physical casino a great deal of the space is going to be occupied by those machines.

Some persons may find this story very inspiring and which is based on how we see it. This is not the kind of story for newbie gamblers or under aged gamblers that may have big urge to win a huge jackpot. This is mainly not based on luck but skills which we don't have to compromise. Gambling is risky and for those who does not understand much about it should be aware of the imminent risk that could pose huge risk.

what inspired the FedEx story is how the right decision was made by the owner in using the money left in his pocket to bet it on the gambling table

wrong mate, not because he happened to win meaning that is right decision because remember that in Gambling it is more than 80% of chances to lose and less than 20% chances of winning meaning when he decide to gamble there is small chance that he can get than amount but like what mostly says? it is luck and yeah congrats to Him.

I often hear of people who use the money left in their pockets to gamble but most of them end up losing, and the story of the FedEx owner is really risky to be imitated by those who still can't control themselves

I have tried this some time ago but like many? i earn nothing but losing lol.

The FedEx story is an exception because perhaps the owners have given up on managing it and finally left it all to the game of gambling.
But he was very lucky at that time because he could win a lot of money from gambling.
It's not a good story to imitate because not many people can win as much money as he does.
It is better to find other ways to make money and not from gambling because gambling is not a place to make money.

That's a lot that I didn't know and on the Japan we know that they have a lot of vendor machines like even every streets there's a machine which is consist a lot of different products inside that's why it is becomes more convenient to them have this because they don't need to go far also most of the time I like to them is there's a lot of stuff toys with their machines also even the food you can now buy in the machine and that's shocking they are not into a gambling.

He took the risk and the whole thing work out "as never thought", note: i didn't say "as expected" which means this kind of occasions happen on a rare case, what the man did is uncommon likewise the result he had also, but one must not because of that go into such an extent in taking risk, if you use your last card which is the only spare money left with you to survive and play gamble or maybe you  gamble with someone else money in your disposal, you will face the consequences in which you may not like at all, i see gambling as a game of those satisfied enough and contended with all they have and wish to spend part of their accumulated resource on gambling while catching fun.

And the man is indeed a risk taker and willing to accept whatever the outcome.
But I will never try to play gambling with the remaining spare money because gambling really requires luck.
And although we don't know if when we play with that last spare money, luck will come in time.
Only people willing to take risks will do it, while others tend to look for other ways that may be safer.

Well gambling is a big part of the culture of those living at Las Vegas and you will be hard pressed to find anyone there that does not gamble once in a while so it makes sense that slot machines are everywhere,

means one thing that most people in Vegas  are gambler and wanna take a short risk from time to time as slot machine can be operated in a short period of time and you can completely find the result right after you put a coin?

we must also remember that slots is one of the most profitable gambling games there are for the casinos, which is the main reason that if you visit any physical casino a great deal of the space is going to be occupied by those machines.

most profitable? that is if you are lucky to win jackpot but not until then? card games or roulette still remains the most profitable for me.

It happens most of the time in prison just to divert their mind from thinking about how long they will stay in jail and make themselves feel like just living outside and in normal life. They might be addicted but at least, they can never overspend money, unlike if you are outside and even it becomes a reason for falling into huge debts. But those things that have mentioned OP, I'd say it was not really a piece of luck, they have given an opportunity and reason for their winnings. It sometimes happens but yes, it was too surprising even those who win can't even think about it.

I know a handful of people from Vegas that doesn't gamble. They don't find the activity too pleasing, or worth their time even. Perhaps since Las Vegas turned into a gambling hub after being a lonely desert place for a long time, a lot of people migrated into the area to take advantage of the gambling industry by getting jobs out there or even playing. But yeah, most people there in Las Vegas are into gambling, but it's not too hard to find someone who's only there for their jobs and not amused by the number of physical gambling places in the said area.

Women do know when to steal the show, on the given link by @OP I read that the first legal Casino license is issued to a woman.  I was like wth, gambling is dominated by males during those times let alone by mobsters and gangsters.  So I was surprised when the first legal Casino is established by a woman named Mayme Stocker in 1920 for the Northern Club.  She was a wife and a mother, but her husband does not support her so she pushed its legality and opened the Casino herself.[1]

4. Some Gambling Addicts Pee All Over the Gaming Floor.



        Some gamblers simply take things too far: addiction counselors say that some problem gamblers are so impaired by their addiction that they simply urinate all over themselves or wear adult diapers rather than step away from the table or slot machine. For instance, in Indiana in 2007, a gambler filed a complaint with the state's Gaming Commission after he sat in a pee-soaked chair at a slot machine. And in 2015, a New Jersey man urinated into a slot machine's coin slot rather than leave the gaming floor.

can't understand this, they are willing to use diapers so they don't miss round after round in the game, but in my mind what if it's not just peeing, if peeing can still be tolerated if more than peeing

By "more than peeing" I want to believe you mean pooing...

It is easier to hold pooing than it is to hold peeing, Infact, you can't hold peeing, once it time to pee, you either go out and pee or you will end up peeing in yourself.
I personally can hold poo for a whole day plus, but that is not possible with pee,
So I believe this should explain to you why some gamblers wear diapers for pee, and not care about poo.

[Haunebu]

Awesome share op. Didn't know about majority of these facts. The best one among them was the one about Macau being the gambling capital of the world since I always thought that it was Vegas.

I've been to Vegas which was crazy hot(Even during the night) and observed how most gamblers only cared about slots. I can easily remember the slot machine sounds very clearly.

This is actually funny  but that's the reality, in the early days of time past, those calibre of gamblers are somewhat going an extreme way in their gambling and they can't but just express their feelings in display even in a nasty way, now things have gone the advance way with gambling and now a rare case to having this kind of experience except being drunk, a funny show will start tobhave a long finishing end.

They will make life in prison like a normal life outside of prison and maybe they play gambling to fill their spare time. Maybe they can get into debt when they play gambling because we know, what can be used as a bet, even though it will be limited unlike when they are out of prison. We don't know if they will get addicted or not but hopefully they won't because it will cause problems for them when they get out of jail.

Maybe it was because of the luck that came just in time to them that they were able to win. But there may also be others who have followed their lead by taking the risk of gambling but unfortunately, they lost everything in no time.

Most of the world undiscovered and limitedly discovered facts that have great historic story behind it are champion by women, ever since time immemorial, women have being actively involved in all aspect of life and discovery even though women are seen as weaker vessels they're still making a significant impact similar they male counterparts.

I read some amazing discoveries some time ago that women were among the first to either drive a car or own a car in many countries around the world.

I think it's pooing instead of peeing? And if so I think diapers could stand that at most once afaik. It's honestly kind of a disgusting behavior imo, it'd be understandable if it was a disability of sorts but if it was because one was well, willing (excluding under the influence of drunkness or something similar) then it just feels, odd or weird. Pretty sure casinos have restrooms in their place, and having that mentality of ignoring going to the restroom and instead releasing it as it is kind of marks the gambler as a problematic one, I'd really really get help then. Heck as a casino owner I'd probably send the person to the hospital myself if possible.

I am surprised with that fact. I never knew that the first casino was opened by a woman.
This thread is turning out to be an eye opener for many people who gamble.
It's a pity that her husband didn't support her but I guess she would have made an incredible income by opening a casino.
