Most money made gambling? *In real life, not UO*

He wins but they don't post every game he wins. There was a tourament not long ago with a 1mil buy in and almost every player has people backing them.

Doyle Brunson? i think everyone would agree he is sucessful. One of the pioneers of poker than became an author of multiple top selling poker books. Two that have the most influence on the game today- Super Systems 1 and 2.

'successful gamblers' is possibly an oxymoron. occasional calculated risk is one thing. but a prolific gambler? best stay in school.

Most ive won at a Casino was 400 bucks got in good then my drunk uncle and brother showed up. Took a turn for the worse. It was kinda like having Mush from A Bronx Tale standing right next to ya.
 
I use to do extremly well in scatch of tickets when i worked at a gas station just out of highschool, but ya have to have money to waste in order to get slightly ahead. I watched people dump 400$ in a half hour to win 120$ and get excited about the 120$ - even told the one lady ya know you could come in here give me 50$ keep 50$ for yourself and walk away much further ahead. Anyways i was up about 1K$ because i would watch the ticket cards and in PA, any time the big winners of the tickets are sold they pull the remaining cards because of advertisement issues, i know some states sell every single one.

Well because of me working there i could see what in a new ream of cards was hitting and what wasnt, the average 20$ ticket has a few 50$ winners a few 100$ winners and some times a 250$ winner, in every ream, always at least 2 50's and 1 100, always --- so i couldn't play on the clock but after my shifts i could and i would just get a better than average educated guess on what was hitting hot and what hasn't hit hot yet. Tried that shit once i quit working there and went from upp 1000$ to only up $600 - needless to say i havent played any since. Highest ticket i sold was a $5000 winner at xmas, which i was going to play before my shift started but was too lazy to walk to the ATM, and next guy up bingo! This was all approx 8-10 years ago.
 
ugh....you must've felt realllllly sorry abotu that :(

Yeah i would have prob used it to put something down on a car or had a hella sweet vacation, i was just out of high school working 50 hrs a week without bills so i had money to spare anyhow. Might have been the very thing to turn that guys life around and so it maybe worked out for the best.
