ATLANTIC CITY - May 24, 2009 (WPVI) -- Pat DeMauro broke the previous record by more than an hour, which is an eternity playing the game of craps.
The North Jersey grandmother of three was visiting the Borgata when she made her historic roll last night.
"The whole four hours was thrilling, exciting, overwhelming," Pat DeMauro said.
Pat DeMauro rolled the dice for 4 hours and 18 minutes playing craps, a game where players wager on a roll or series of rolls with dice.
<script type="text/javascript">digGetAd("Rectangle");</script>
To put in terms of other sports: it's like bowling a 300 over and over again, like draining 500 straight free throws, or striking out 21 straight batters in a game.
Nearly impossible.
"All of sudden the table started filling up. They were chanting my name. I was jumping as we won; it was exciting, it was really exciting," DeMauro said.
Senior Vice President of Operations at the Borgata, Joe Lupo, says he and his staff started to became suspicious.
The longest he'd ever seen someone roll was a little over an hour and the longest roll on record was a little over 3 hours.
They soon, however, realized she was simply on an historic run.
"The energy was great. I've never seen anything like it and couldn't be happier that it happened at Borgata," Lupo said.
Pat says her secret was positive thinking and a little rub of the dice.
She won't say how much money she made, but she sure made a lot of people at the table richer.
When it all ended, the Borgata provided champagne which she and her boyfriend enjoyed and the crowd gave her a rousing ovation.
"I just joked around at one point and I said this is my stimulus package for everybody," DeMauro said.
"It's great to see good things happen to good people; she was just so nice and I don't think she really realized the impact she had and yet the crowd of people that was around the table cheering for her, that was, as she said, one of the nicest things about it," Lupo said.
DeMauro is going to spend her winnings on her family.
She's taking her daughter and three grandchildren to Disney World.

if phil ivey ever gets a run of dice in him that lasts anywhere near as close to that, they will be renaming the hotel after him...
i watched a bunch of life of ivey's on youtube and and one of them when he is jumping from hotel to hotel shooting dice he is asked how long would he like to roll for and he replied along the lines of (with a BIG smirk on his face) 45minutes would be sufficient

How is Ivey going to own the casino? Limits at Bellagio are 5k per number, placing and coming can get you down about 20-30k on each number (odds included). Figure after 30 rolls he's maxed out on each number. So For 120 rolls lets say he averages winning about 30k per roll (I'm including all of the 2.3,11, and 12s and guesstimating his per roll win). On any other number he's going to be making around 50k averaging in hardways and hops. My rough calculations would have him winning about 3.6 million for the last 120 rolls figure another 1 million for the first 30 to get up to maxed out, but lets same I'm half wrong and he wins 9.2 million. Hardly enough to own the casino. Now if he had 9 more of his buddies and was staking them on the same roll, then he's making about 50-90 million. Those limits are there for a reason.
I walk away from that table with 250k at least
by the end of the first hour, I'm at or near the table maximums across the board
maybe 500k minimum
hno:
that roll is like winning lotto
by the end of the first hour, I'm at or near the table maximums across the board

hno:that roll is like winning lotto
i agree whole heartedly...the way i bet when i am at the craps table, i would be purchasing a house on the beach today.....i am still in shock at this impossibility....i'm gonna be there sat nite...guaranteed my first roll is craps...I walk away from that table with 250k at least
by the end of the first hour, I'm at or near the table maximums across the board
maybe 500k minimum
that roll is like winning lotto
