for fun, for thrill and for wanting to earn more money. but how to win money at casino. who ever get rich by gambling at casino one? only banker ie casino wins all your hard earned money. I dun gamble because I know I will lose and the banker is the winner, so what for gamble right.

I heard one cab driver said to me that someone told him a middle aged woman lost about 100k at those jackpot machines. the woman continue playing jackpot despite losing so much money and yet she continue to play and stay rooted there over few days.

some do it out of the delusion that they can be the 1 in 100 to actually walk out with a slight profit...

or the 1 in 10000 who can make a nice profit

or the 1 in 10000000 who will strike the mega jackpot or whatever the hell

Going to casino is to gamble, with the odds clearly against gamblers. House odds ranges between 1% to 5% on average, so to speak, there is chances to win but there is a slightly higher chance to lose money.

People go to casino hoping to win obviously, with most thinking they will have the luck to overcome the disadvantageous odds.

The other reason gamblers are addicted is because of something called emotions. When you gamble, there is some chemistry going on in your body that makes you hook, just like smoking... You get the moments of highs and lows and if you stop gambling, you keep thinking about it. Actually, it's the same with sports sometimes, when you love soccer and one month you need to stop playing, you keep thinking about wanting to play soccer, same applies to gambling except the highs of winning money is higher.

1) Mr X is working in a profession whereby income is hard to be regulated i.e. hawker etc…He tries to under-declare his income to avoid taxes…So he goes to casino with his takings from his business and convert them to chips; tries a few round on the blackjack table. Either convert them back to cash or remain as chips. Then he declares his business is not making money. His excuse that his bank account is still well-fed if kena checked by IRAS is because of his gambling winnings. So he can avoid paying tax or pay lesser than he should.

2) Mr Y wants to give his potential customer some coffee money so that his customer will consider his company’s proposal instead of others. Mr Y brings his customer to the casino, give him chips instead of cash. The customer then converts the chips and cash out. If kena investigated, says he win on the table…nothing wrong mah.

3) Mr Z is a bookie. All his money as you know is unclean…he has to open a few accounts so as not to arouse suspicions from authorities during match days when there are many suspicious ‘transactions’. Now with casino, he just have to bring his takings there and convert them to chips and then back to cash. Now his money is clean liao.

Casinos got eyes.

First time you get away with it.

Second time, you will be marked.

Third time, you will be caught. There and then at the casino and charged with money laundering. The casino's CCTV recordings will be the proof.
