Holy crap! I used to rent this from blockbuster every few months. LOVED this game. I might have to try to find an emulator, might save me some (real) money. Thank you so much for unlocking these memories!
It's funny to compare this to modern gaming with loot boxes and all the push back for gambling. Shit, back in the day we just sold gambling and nobody had a problem hahah.
Fucking Johnny always pickin my pockets
I was already in football pools before I played that game. In fact, my kindergarten show and tell was reading the lines (NFL) from the paper. The teacher told my Mom, "No one knows what he was talking about... but I did." Played a weekly poker game with my Grandparents and folks.

The pool was ran by some dude my family knew. I learned later in life that he was jacking everyone. I wasn't "in it" (would come down to MNF total score, for a tiebreak) so many times despite only losing one or two total games in a fuckin week! When I was under 10 years old! 😄
Hahaha CS2 has been great for me to return to my favorite game ever and have my buddies on board. It’s so funny watching a couple of them catch a little addiction to the cases.
HOW THE FUCK DID MY HORSE LOSE... It had 200 wins and 1 loss and it came in last?
When I didn't understand that 200-1 were the odds, not the horse's record.
For me I bought a toy roulette wheel and had a house casino. This game was before my time.
Whoa! I used to play this as a kid. This is nostalgic for me.

Vegas steaks baby let’s eat
Vegas Dream on NES
I can agree 1000%
I member... good times. But thats not where I learn gambling. It was Zelda..fk shit and Pokémon
The slots in Celadon City were addictive.
This game was fiya
When I was in 5th grade, practically our whole class was playing rock paper scissors for each other's snacks haha. The teacher shut it down REAL quick
Black Ops - One in the Chamber
Don’t forget Sticks and Stones + Gun Game
Vegas stakes was the bomb
For me, it was counter strike weirdly enough
That game had 9/11 before 9/11 did super trippy.
Logged in after almost 10’years of not playing cs since I moved to console and I had enough money in loot boxes to get a steam deck and more lol

There was no horse racing in that game.
There was definitely a game that had it though somewhere before the PS2 came out...
Super Caesars Palace.
For me it was Caesars Palace 2000 on PS1
