The Celebrity Gambling infographic shows just how much stars have spent while betting.
Some interesting tidbits about your favorite A-listers and their gambling habits include: Pamela Anderson once offered "x-rated moves" to settle a $250,000 debt during a poker game, Michael Jordan has lost over $1 million betting on golf matches, Tobey Maguire has been sued for $300,000 for engaging in (and winning!) illegal poker games, and my personal favorite, Paris Hilton was banned from her own casino by her parents after losing her $175,000 Bentley during a poker game.
According to the Celebrity Gambling infographic, Lil Wayne, Spencer Pratt and Brandon Davis have also been banned from casinos at one point. Apparently fame can't save you from notorious betting habits.
