I can make a living off casino games - playing poker, betting sports (football, mostly) and counting at blackjack (although blackjack is essentially a waste of time at this point).

I don't remember all the details, but I remember that game being quite the pain.
Okay... so I love it this far. I would love to see this list continue. There is actually a point behind this post too...
Basically I was watching some YouTube videos of "magic trick" type *maybe illusions?*... I was puzzled by a lot of them. I wondered if it was truly psychological analyses, or whether it was just a cheap trick involving lies and such. Got me thinking about some of the pretty cool things I've learned how to do... the kind of thing that amazes you when you learn it, but afterward you realize that anyone can do it.
My theory is that if everyone keeps throwing those kinds of things on this list, others can see what is actually possible... and I'm a firm believer in "if he can do it, I can too" Maybe We'll get lucky and find a polyphasic or two, and some other interesting stuff like that.
Keep it up!
