Kawan, it is from cantonese, although the usage and meaning has been mistranslated.

In HK gambling movies, we know that sailang means all in. and usually the hero of the movie would be winning the moment they decided to go all in show hand.

so cliche yeah?

so when the hero won at the gambling table, they sapu habis all the chips/cash on the table.

such scenes were imprinted on them meleis watching those movies that they associate "sailang " as in "sapu habis" lah
