赌徒也是形形色色的。如果有一个关于赌博的明智的意见，那就是你永远不应该赌你输不起的。该规则对我们大多数人是好的，但问题是，有些赌徒喜欢玩高风险赌博游戏以寻找刺激的感觉。以下是一些著名玩家的玩高风险赌博游戏的一些故事。这里的传奇故事在澳门，拉斯维加斯，摩纳哥和伦敦流传多年。
对于狂赌者，有一件事你可以肯定的，著名的赌徒之所以著名，有一个共同点，他们都是狂赌者。
凯瑞派克
凯瑞派克，已故的澳洲亿万富翁大亨，也许是最明目张胆，在狂赌者的赌博历史上。45亿美元的信贷额度，可谓财大气粗，他可能会诱发大多数凡人心脏病发作。这位亿万富翁不仅在澳大利亚本地进行投注，还到美国的Brucies和Sheilas赌场投注。他有足够的零钱，他们的一些公司在纽约证券交易所交易。他把他的策略称之为“打和运行”。他打百家乐游戏的方式是荒谬的。当然，他也在赌桌上也有失手的时候。在伦敦的一个赌场上，他就曾经输了2800万美元，但他在拉斯维加斯的米高梅大赌场却赢得3300万美元，最终他还是赢了。
他最有名的事迹是与来自得克萨斯州的一个石油商人玩扑克赌博游戏。
罗伯特麦克斯韦
这个罗伯特麦克斯韦不再是与我们所认识的传媒大亨罗伯特麦克斯韦，这个罗伯特麦克斯韦在轮盘赌上似乎存在一些弱点。在短短3分钟的轮盘赌桌上，他就失去了150万英镑。
胖子
胖子，又名Fouat AL – Zayat，是一个在伦敦梅费尔赌场很有名的狂赌者。就在这个星期，在关于Aspinalls的法庭案件上，他赢得了2,000,000英镑的赌债。但在此之前，你可能觉得这对Aspinalls不太公平。其实他们输掉了这场官司的原因，是因为他们继续让胖子在赌场投注。
里贾纳
这位女士是这个星球上最成功和最知名的的二十一点玩家之一。她在玩游戏时有些盲目，但这并不影响她的比赛。她的丈夫约翰彼得斯，就像一个算牌器，为里贾纳次提供了完美的游戏策略。
约翰 – 达利
您可能听说过约翰 – 达利，他是一个巨大的赌徒，他自己估计，他花在赌桌上的时间超过了十年。
以上那些并不是什么关于道德方面的故事？但是也值得你去阅读和学习，帮助你在赌场上权衡利弊！总而言之，你不应该打赌超过你能负担得起。玩赌场游戏应该是一种娱乐，而不是一个快速致富的计划。设置您的娱乐预算，然后像对待任何其他形式的休闲娱乐方式一样对待赌博游戏。

Famous Gamblers
Gamblers come in all shapes and sizes- some of us like a flutter, and some of us like to stake silly amounts. If there is one piece of sensible advice on gambling, it?s that you should never play with more than you can afford to lose. That rule is fine for most of us, but for these movers and shakers, the problem is that they can afford quite alot. Take these famous High Stakes players below. Here are some of the legendary stories that have seeped out of Las Vegas, Macua, Monaco and London over the years.
Whether you call them High Rollers, High Stakes Players or Whales there is one thing that you can be certain of. You will never match these exploits- nor should you want to. The best policy? Read from afar, be amazed and keep your distance!
Kerry Packer
Kerry Packer, the late billionaire Aussie tycoon, was perhaps the most brazen High Roller in the history of gambling. With deep pockets filled with credit lines to the tune of $4.5bn, he could make the kind of bets that would induce heart attacks in most of us mere mortals. This Australian out bet and out played the American Brucies and Sheilas on their home turf and had enough spare change to buy a few of their companies on the New York stock exchange for afters. He took great pleasure in employing a strategy which he called the “Hit and Run”， in which he hit casinos in short baccarat sessions with ridiculous bets and then scarpered when he was up. Of course, he lost quite a bit at the tables as well. On one session in London, he blew A$28m and in another he won A$33m in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand Casino. His ultimate aim? To take the casino to the cleaners. Although he never actually managed to do this, he certainly hammered down their share prices from time to time by single handedly wiping millions of their bottom lines.
His most famous run in was with an oil-man from Texas who was trying to tempt him into a game of poker by sharing the value of his fortune: $60 million. Packer was nonplussed by the sum, pulled out a coin and challenged him to a game of heads or tails for it. The Texan declined.
Robert Maxwell
Another media tycoon who is no longer with us, Robert Maxwell had a weakness for roulette.
He lost ?1.5 million in just three minutes on the roulette tables. How did he do that? Well, one wheel spinning wasn?t enough for Mr Maxwell, so he bet on 3 wheels at the same time. His average loss during this round of roulette? Around 8k a second.
The Fat Man
The Fat Man, a.k.a. Fouat Al-Zayat is a massive high roller who plays at casinos in London- mostly at the Ritz and Aspinalls in Mayfair. Just this week he won a court case against Aspinalls for a ?2,000,000 gambling debt. But before you feel too sorry for Aspinalls, the reason why they lost the case, was because they continued to allow him to bet at the casino even as they were taking him to court. And you want to know why? Well, in one period over the course of around 3 years Aspinalls welcomed Fouat Al-Zayat through the doors on over six hundred occasions during which time he bought over ?91m worth of casino chips. What would the late John Aspinalls be saying about that? All good stuff, I bet.
Regina Guzior
This lady is one of the most successful and best known blackjack players on the planet. She?s blind, but that doesn?t affect her game. Her husband, John Peters, reads the cards for her, and Regina plays the perfect strategy pretty much all of the time.
John Daly
You might of heard John Daly thanks to his monster golf swing. But in his hey day, he was a huge gambler- certainly no innocent spring chicken.
He himself reckons that he has blown around $55m on the table and slot machines over the best part of a decade. His most famous session followed a play off with Tiger Woods in which he netted $750k. Rather than sticking this in the bank like the rest of us would have done, He headed straight to the desert and alledgedly blew over one and a half million dollars playing slots in one session.
So what?s the moral story here? Well, first of all, read them and learn. Let the pros make the mistakes! You should never bet more than you can afford （unfortunately for these players, they could afford to bet like this）。 Playing casino games should be entertainment, not a get rich quick scheme. Set your budget before you go and play, and then treat it like any other form of leisure, like going to the cinema or heading out for a meal.
