Show HN: Gave Claude a casino bankroll – it gambles till it's too broke to think

Inspired by ALMA. As Claude loses money gambling on provably-fair slots, it's forced to downgrade from Opus → Sonnet → Haiku, making worse decisions and accelerating the spiral. Donations go to gambling support charities.

Hah pretty funny. It keeps saying the same things over and over again. Maybe improving the prompt or just a bit bigger context could help even with the smallets models?

its either stuck on haiku or can't even afford that anymore. Bumping it back into sonnet or opus provides much more interesting responses
