It is not uncommon for casino operators to remit you your jackpot or you big casino winning in the form of periodic payment annuities that gets spread over many years.

Considering that no casino players has a way to know if or when he/she would hit a big one at a casino, no one reads the fine print declarations posted (if at all) at a casino on how they would pay a big winner.

It is usually only after the casino executives (a.k.a. casino bosses) have verified and confirmed your big win that you would know they would be paying you in relatively small periodic payments over time -often over many years. Learning about that payment plan could seem like bit of a downer, but all is not lost.

In principle, your casino winnings -even when you are being paid in relatively small periodic payments spread over many years -are no different than all your other assets or equities. Just as easily you can sell your real estate property assets, gold, diamonds, automobiles, or any other assets, you have an option to "sell" your casino winnings for lump sum cash.
