    Chances are slim unless you give the money to Auto Donk and let him go crazy on the slot machines.

      That is noting from another world. It has happen to me more than once. Chances are very good. Go to the black jack and double it twice. You will 4k. Go to the sportsbook and place a 3 team parlay. 2 team -110 and the last a heavy favorite. When you win you will have over 15k.

            Take a gun and visit the cashier's cage. They will loan you $14,000.

                  There is a chance to turn 1k into 15k, but I wouldn't classify the chance as being very good.

                    If you can win $200 with $1000 that is a great win

                        if you just keep doubling up then probably about 20/1

                        true odds with no juice would be 14/1 of course... if the only possible outcomes were 15k or 0

                        i like the thinking, most people just lose whatever they bring with about no chance of ever winning anything significant

                              im doing good online. have some bitcoin payouts coming. could see myself taking a shot at a casino. sink or swim

                              15k would be a huge life lift for me. and the $1000 i would lose is all profit anyways.....20/1 seems about right

                                i think i would just start playing BJ with $300 hands

                                could bust out in 10 minutes but i would be mentally prepared for that

                                    the lower you go in bet size, the further the odds get away from you

                                    at $300/hand the odds of running it up to 15k are probably more like 1/1000

                                      i took bookmaker 150% casino bonus for $800 on a $100 deposit........i was up to 2200 at one point then they flipped the switch and i must have won 25% of hands to take me down to 800. but whatever

                                      then i won a poker tournament at betonline $475 ($9 entry)

                                      then hit a huge freeplay parlay at betonline for $900


                                      this is all profit only about $250 of my own money balance over 2k

                                              I'd say try to hit one hand of roulette. and then leave with 1k. Go out to steak dinner and put the rest on a football game.

                                                one bet is the best chance (less -EV)

                                                roulette only if single ZERO

                                                Sammy would do one hand baccarat or all on passline

                                                  99% Chance you will lose everything before you leave.
                                                  Never really understood the argument about House money, it makes absolutely no sense when you think about it.

                                                    If Black hits 4 times in a row you can do it in minutes.

                                                    You have about 6% chance.

                                                        Never really understood the argument about House money, it makes absolutely no sense when you think about it.
                                                        totally agree with you

                                                        once it's in your pocket it's your money... losing it should be just as painful as losing anything else

                                                        almost all gamblers i know (including myself), as you get older the wins are less pleasurable and the losses are more painful

                                                          If you go to the casino with 1000 and you better have about 150k in savings because that was what the breakdown is
