Remember when I talked about playing online casino? Last week was a lucky week for me. I was really problematic when the day started on Monday. I didn't feel like going to work, actually. That's because my wallet is almost empty and my salary isn't credited yet in my account. My bank shows "0.36" Lol!

It was the first day of the week and I have expected loads of work. Fortunately, there were no clients coming in the first few hours. Unfortunately.... billing notifications were popping out of my phone. Moments later, the landlady called and asked what time of the day shall I pay my rent. I have already set aside half of the amount few days back but due to some urgent necessities I have to cut the amount. My rent is Php 6000 and I only have Php 2, 000 on hand.

That Monday was like hell for me and I really didn't feel like moving so I scrolled on my Gcash account. I found out I still have Php 100 just enough for me to play the casino. Then I thought, I just want to have fun for a while. Besides no clients are coming in, so it's fine.

So I started spinning on my favorite slots and set the bet amount to 10 pesos per spin. I kept spinning until the amount went down to 15 pesos. I thought, well that's just it. This means that I should stop but since I still have 15 pesos left, if I shift it to 1 peso/spin I can still have 15 spins. Set the bet amount to 1 peso and continued spinning until it went up again to 47. Then I got kinda bored because I know that amount is gonna lose anyway, so I shift back to bet 10.

On the 4th and last spin, the coins finally show up. Then I thought okay, I will just cash out if it reaches Php 500. To my surprise the free spins kept coming and it gave me a lot of matches. Just in time the clients swarmed the office. Lol! But there's no stopping, coz if I stop I will lose the momentum.

I stood and entertained my clients while the game is still playing. I'm holding my phone facing down. I could see it's still winning, I kept glancing at my phone and secretly took screenshots of every winning match. It was really surprising, I have never experienced this in playing slots before. When the free spins stopped, I faced it down for a while and focused on their concerns. I was quick dealing with them, answering their questions. Whewh! Such a relief when they all came out with good feedbacks. 😅🤣

When the clients were gone, I took my phone and still shocked with the amount. It reached 32,900 pesos ($500+). I was shaking because that's already a lot of money. To think I only have 7 pesos left. Didn't expect to win that big. I can finally pay the rent in full and pay our short term loan.

That time, I was in doubt but I know that website I'm playing is legit since I have played and cashed out several times. I just can't believe I got this big amount and I'm going to withdraw all of it. Luckily, it was successfully credited to my Gcash account in full amount. I was so happy and relieved.

What I did with my winning:

1.) paid the rent - Php 6,000

2.) paid loan to my cousin - Php 5,000 (I loaned this amount to buy a sack of rice and LPG)

3.) paid loan to my mother-in-law - Php 6,000 (for the repair/maintenance of our motorcycle that we use daily)

4.) bought a bigger electric fan - Php 2,300 (coz it's very hot here in the philippines and it feels like were in a big oven)

5.) sent to my parents Php 5, 000 (for tiles) and Php 1,000 (dinner treat)

6.) sent to my brothers Php 1, 000 (500 each)

7.) gave my hubby Php 3, 000 - for his clothes (he needs it at work)

At this point the winning is almost running out. I have 3,600 left. I transferred the 2,600 to my bank account and set aside the Php 1,000.

Tried spinning on the next day and I kept winning Php 2, 000 in every 200 that I deposit. It eventually reached Php 6,000. Everyday I set aside 500 for the next day.

Out of the Php 6,000, I gave Php 1,000 to my father for his monthly dues for the washing machine. Php 500 to my mom for her pants. Then the rest were allocated to the groceries to refill our pantry that's always almost empty. Lol!

The week ended with another Php 6, 500 win which I spent to treat my kids with their favorite toys. I also bought containers for their toys that's about Php 2, 000 all in all. We ate out ofcourse to their favorite fast food. I kept the rest of the winnings in my bank.

author's note:

Casino games is always a game of chance. It doesn't mean that when someone wins the other wins, too. As for me, I don't play this everyday. Only when I have some extra in my pocket. It was just a lucky week for me, I would say.

Always remember that when you try your luck with this kind of game, just be responsible. Don't get yourself addicted. Only play with your extra money and never use your funds that's allocated to something more important like bills.

I know that gambling isn't the answer to financial problem. Even though I won that big amount, I wasn't proud of myself that I gambled a small amount. I'm just grateful for what I got that's why I make use for the opportunity to apply it in the most useful way.
