A British man who has sold all his possessions, including his clothes, will stand in a rented tuxedo on Sunday and bet everything on a single spin of the roulette wheel.If he wins, he doubles his money. If he loses, he will be left with only the television crew documenting his every move.
So he's betting Black/Red, Odd/Even, High/Low, or he could cover 18 numbers equally.
Heck, good publicity for the casino. Funny part is that it proves that casinos want the long term odds, not a quick killing. They are happy with 4% of the big picture, not a high risk, one time deal.
Used to be he could have walked into Binion's and made this bet. The good old days are really gone.
