Land of Lost Judgment by Karen Cicco
I don’t know why I am even asking this question. The answer is pretty clear to me: whoever gambles his money is ultimately responsible for his losses, right? This woman from Indiana seems to think otherwise, however. She even went as far as to sue the casino that “made her lose” her money.
Here is the story according to Casino Gambling Web:
In Indiana, Jenny Kephart counter-sued Caesars Indiana after the casino sued the woman for $125,000 were of bets that she did not pay. The casino had extended her credit, but then Kephart did not pay the bill.
Her counter-suit argument was based on the idea that she was a gambling addict and that the casino specifically sought her out after she received a $1 million inheritance. The Indiana Court of Appeals did not agree with that viewpoint.
“While Kephart lost the money she wagered, it is an injury that she chose to risk incurring,” the court, which voted 2-1 against her complaint, said in the written ruling. “She wagered her money to purchase a chance to win even more. Indeed, it is extremely unlikely that she would have brought suit had she won her wagers.”
I think that it is just a desperate attempt on Kephart’s behalf. She threw caution to the wind that night, and she is paying for her actions. I cannot see, no matter how I look at it, how the casino can be responsible for her losses! She made her bets, and she lost. Should have been the end of the story, right?
Lesson for us all: take responsibility for your actions. Enjoy your nights out at the casino but know the consequences.
