Hollywood is not far away from Las Vegas. Many celebrities who work and live in Hollywood often take trips to Las Vegas to spend a bit of money and take a break. In the end, celebrities are normal people too, and may need to unwind at a classy establishment like the casino.
But, of course, not all celebrities like to gamble. There are a select few who haven’t been shy of their love for gambling. Some famous stars have even become professional gamblers over the course of their lives.
They have made a lot of money as movie stars, singers, and more. But they may have made even more money at the poker table. Let’s take a look at 3 celebrity gamblers.
Charlie Sheen
First on our list, we have the infamous Charlie Sheen. This entry may come as a surprise to no-one because Charlie Sheen truly embraced the rockstar lifestyle when he was at his peak. He loved to visit Las Vegas and was quite a prolific gambler. And much like his comedy, Charlie Sheen wasn’t half bad at winning at the poker table.
Alongside poker, Charlie Sheen is also known to be an avid sports bettor. Sports betting is one of the most proven ways to make money while gambling. All you need to do is figure out a comprehensive sports betting strategy.
Ben Affleck
Ben Affleck has had quite a Hollywood career. From being Batman alongside Henry Cavil as Superman, to creating films with his best friend Matt Damon, there is no denying Affleck’s on-screen talent. And it doesn’t stop there for Ben either. Ben Affleck is notorious at most Las Vegas poker tables for his sharklike poker face.
Long story short, if you see Ben Affleck at the poker table, turn around, because he’s not an easy nut to crack. Ben Affleck says that his love for gambling came at a young age. He first ever took a bet on himself becoming a world-famous actor, and never looked back since.
Tobey Maguire
We may have a superhero theme happening here. First Ben Affleck as Batman and now Tobey Maguire. This Hollywood star is most known for his role as Spiderman in the early 2000s trilogy. A trilogy that most people consider to be the best Spiderman trilogy of all time. Sorry, Tom Holland.
But besides being the most iconic Spiderman of his generation, Tobey Maguire likes to spend his off time at the casino. He has never been known to be an avid gambler, but rather one who visits every now and then.
Tobey is an interesting character because much of his private life is exactly that – private. But he hasn’t been afraid to speak of his love for the allure of the casino.
Last Words
These three Hollywood stars are certainly not the only ones to enjoy a night of gambling. There are hundreds more who play at land-based establishments and enjoy pokies online. Those mentioned in this list are the ones that most people may be surprised to find out about. Besides Charlie Sheen of course!
