The Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City said Pat DeMauro, of Morris County, bought into the craps game for $100 Saturday and held the dice for four hours and 18 minutes, besting the the three-hour, six-minute world record that has stood unchallenged since May 28, 1989, The Press of Atlantic City reported Monday.

"I got on a roll and just kept going for about four and a half hours -- and I was learning the game as I went along," DeMauro said. "Most of the men that were there were really excited because I was bringing them good luck." DeMauro, who declined to reveal how much money she made from the game -- she said only that "it was a good night" -- said Borgata officials approached her after the end of the hot streak and treated her and a friend to Dom Perignon champagne, a free meal and a complimentary stay at the hotel.
