If you had $50 bucks to deposit at a casino. What would you do

Just a hypothetical question. What would you do or which games you would try out?

Personally, I would go all in at the Roulette tables or may be do $1 a spin on some high RTP slot, since this would probably take me 20 minutes to finish off the amount. Not unless I won something, which would be a rarity anyways.

This Redditor asked the same question. Had a few responses worth sharing.

id play keno and video poker. hopefully get a few free drinks. get to hang out a little. have a chance to make it last and maybe even make a 100 bucks

 

25 cent triple play bonus poker deluxe. Pray for a quad. Walk if it hits.

 

$25 place 4 and 10 on the craps table, if it loses it was destiny, if you can hit twice you can spread some money across and either play for a hot shooter or pull down and try some more rounds of betting after. Best of luck soldier

There were other similar replies. Like one guy said he would spent $10 on Blackjack and if it missed, he would dump $40 on Roulette, making 50cent picks, as it would definitely hit something along the way. Collect that cash and then try his luck on the slot machines.

Whatever you do; never take out a loan to gamble. Self-exclusion is the way forward, if you have gone that route.

Another interesting answer was to short buy on $1 to $2 no limit. Or the entire $50 on $3 to $6 spread with hi/lo Omaha hold ’em.

People winning large jackpots on a $50 bet…$5 bet…or even win a $3 bet has happened before

You’d be surprised to see what the Gods of Luck can do to you when they’re happy

I vividly remember reading this story.

It was the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend back in November of 2024, and a person, who wanted to remain anonymous won slightly over $1 million dollars, that came out to be 20,000 times his original wager on a game called Dragon Link slot. The slot machine was made by Aristocrat Gaming.

Here is the photo shot proof:

As you can see the actual amount was $1,027,980 and that too on a $50 bet. These things aren’t unseen in Vegas, but definitely rare.

For example, a lady won $454K on Monopoly Cash at the Rampart Casino in Las Vegas on 28th August 2024, after only 10 minutes of play, and on a $5 bet.

Here’s her picture winning her big handpay check.

Then there was this famous win in July 2024, for $2.1 Million at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas too. This time around; it was the Wheel of Fortune slot machine.

And can you guess the per bet amount?

It was only $3 per spin!

Talk about winning the hearts of the Gods of RNG.

Here’s the picture of the win:

In life anything is possible. Winning a large sum on a small stake is not impossible. But, also not common.

So, the next time you have $50 to spare for a casino game, remember if your stars are aligned right, that might be turn out to be the happiest day of your life.
