But gambling experts were also quick to point out that the $5 million doesn’t say how much of that could’ve been lost as quickly as it was won.
Well... Evidently it wasn't. At least not in 2015. And that seems odd to me. It's one thing to be a "professional gambler", which is what he called himself, if you're a championship poker player. While that's gambling, the game also involves skill.
As I understand it, a "skilled" video poker player may do better than a novice, but still it's a machine, and it's programmed to make sure the house wins most of the time. Paddock evidently kept elaborate calculations telling him when specific machines had last paid out bigtime. But at least in 2015, he made a lot of money on that. How? Granted, he spent a lot of his time in casinos. But still, is that unusual?
