Here is a lift from a recent article about pro golfer John Daly and his gambling...
Daly estimates that his total gambling losses from 1991-2007 fall in the range of $55-57 million.
"We went through all my tax records to find out, because I really didn't know, and it just came to that," Daly said. "I was shocked. I thought it might have been $20-25 (million), but I had no idea that it was $55-57 million. It's crazy."
According to Daly, he would regularly play seven hands of blackjack at the same time, each for up to $15,000. He also frequented a high-limit slot machine that cost $5,000 per pull and would sometimes stay at the tables for up to two days straight.
