THE MAN WALKS THROUGH THE AIRPORT WITH HIS WINNINGS

The clip was uploaded onto Border Security’s YouTube channel. The customs official says he noticed the man had indicated he had over $10 000 on his person.

The gambler was only coming for a day and that raised suspicion with the official. “So what were you playing when you won the $18 000?”, the official asks the man.

It turns out it wasn’t blackjack or some fancy game, but rather a 25 cent slot machine that gave the man his payday.
