That was an awesome story. Having read a few crime stories about bikers I'd naively say that you were lucky to make it out alive. But it does say that you never win big unless you take risks. Maybe you could have gotten out earlier, and earned enough money in a few hours what most people would be happy earning in a week.

This all sounds kind of dumb tbh.

Will most places just let you walk out with a few grand of their money in cash if you don't needle them too much? The risk of being robbed seems super high compared to say, playing poker in a casino.

Then again, if it's just cash, well, heh. Pre-laundered cash is as much a liability as an asset. That cash might well be dirty money from drug deals or organised crime, and be relatively less useful to its owner than its actual value would suggest.

In its own way, a casino is worse. If they catch you using a system, ANY sort of system, don't they bar you from the establishment for life? Not just that particular casino, but all casinos around the world (using facial recognition software)?
