I am the king of doing something stupid and having it pay off.

A sportsbook where I deposited gave me some casino funds as a bonus. It was $50 and I needed something like $13,500 in action before I could cash out so it was a pretty pointless exercise but what the hell. Fart around a bit.

So I'm playing it the first evening and doing some winning so the bonus is lasting for awhile. I keep logging in and playing for a little bit, logging out.

Long story short, the next morning I have $200 more in my sportsbook cash balance than I should have. On investigation, I was unwittingly playing one of my casino sessions with real money. I was playing three blackjack hands at a time and cheerfully splitting and doubling down and whatnot - with $50 of my own real cash at a shot!

But I ended up that session up $200 so all is well!



I am the king of this shit. Earlier this summer, I placed a bet on 1st five innings when I meant to play full game - and it ends up winning where my intended bet would have lost. Over my career, I am up thousands of dollars on mistakes that went right.

I am Mudcat.

Why are you wasting this good fortune on such mundane endeavors? Go to the local Mini-Mart to purchase a cup of coffee and haphazardly purchase a lottery ticket because the change from the coffee alone would land exactly on a very personal unlucky number. The ticket you had no intention of purchasing is undoubtedly gonna be a winner.

Now you are in a position to quit this new job with all the people you are starting to find utterly annoying and won’t have to be out in traffic nearly as much being exposed to the very archaic driving patterns of your fellow commuters and you will no-longer have any use for a coffee mug that refuses to be re-heatable.

Take a portion of the windfall of cash and randomly invest it all willy-nilly-like and watch it grow into an even larger fortune. Take some of the remaining cash and head out on a GameLive World Tour, visiting each and every member of this forum.
 
I'm confused as to what kind of money you thought you were playing with if not your own.


They lobbed in a $50 casino bonus with my last deposit. It is separate from your cash balance. It came with an 8 billion times rollover so basically you play it, you lose it, you move on.

However I guess I failed to click the button to indicate Bonus play on one of my trips to the casino. So I was playing for real money and could have lost my whole cash balance which was ~$700 at the time. I would not have been happy.

Ahh. Gotcha.
