In a stunning development last week, every gambler actually managed to finish in the black. Hell, the last place finish was +$25. Beloved gambling punching bag Collin Whitchurch even managed to set a new record by winning $300. He's still in 8th place though. And upon further review, Mr. Darin actually earned $325 so no record for Collin.
