Grand Theft Auto 5 Gambling
The Vinewood Casino, also known as Be Lucky: Los Santos, is a casino appearing in Grand Theft Auto V and formerly in Grand Theft Auto Online, located on Vinewood Park Drive in East Vinewood, Los Santos, overlooking the Vinewood Racetrack.
Grand Theft Auto Casino It's likely a hint from Rockstar that we'll see a casino-themed update, similar to the After Hours or Arena War updates, come to GTA Online sometime soon. The summer breeze seems to be bringing in exciting news for the Grand Theft Auto (GTA) fandom from the city of Los Santos. “The Diamond Casino and Resort” is the newest structural addition to GTA 5 that fans have long-awaited. Los Santos: a sprawling sun-soaked metropolis full of self-help gurus, starlets and fading celebrities, once the envy of the Western world, now struggling to stay afloat in an era of economic. So Rockstar is ripping off the community, I had about 5 games of blackjack last night have the dealers card switch to a winning hand after they were already revealed on the table, I've had 3 slot machines stop announce my prize then roll once more and I get nothing.

Update July 25, 2019: Some players have reported indicate that in certain regions, currency purchased with real money cannot be used in the casino, however, this may not be true across all regions. GamesIndustry.biz has reached out to Rockstar for clarification.
Original story:
Grand Theft Auto V's latest update, The Diamond Casino & Resort, adds the titular casino to its fictional Los Santos, but lets players use real money to play its games.
The BBC reports that the casino's chips can be purchased with in-game currency at a $1 to 1 chip ratio. GTA V's money can be either earned in-game, or purchased with real-world money at a rate of $500,000 in GTA currency for $10 USD. In addition, the casino only allows players to purchase $50,000(GTA) worth of chips per in-game day, or real-world hour.
No GTA money or chips can be cashed out for real-world currency, which is notable especially in light of the fact that earlier this week, British MPs declared that FIFA's in-game player packs and loot boxes were not gambling because there was no legitimate way to monetize their virtual contents after purchase.

However, not every country sees it that way, as a number of countries have blocked the gambling minigames in GTA V. This happened similarly in another Rockstar title recently, Red Dead Redemption 2. Unlike GTA V, Red Dead Redemption 2 notably does not allow players to use real money to purchase its special gambling currency.
