re-gamble the original price of the ticket (money you counted on losing) & pocket the difference profit
that's how i did it the time i emptied a slot machine in metropolis,IL....started w/ $50 on a $5 machine....everytime i won, i took my original stack back to $50 & the rest went into a 1-way bucket. did that till the $50 stack was gone....ended up winning ~$9000 that day
they actually had to come over & fill the machine back up once cause i emptied it :crazyr: the other good thing was that i kept hitting jackpots that the machine paid the full amount out, so they never had to come pay me, so they never 1099'd me so i never paid taxes on it
