“I don’t know man,” he said. “One of them is going to be the right thing to say, and one is going to be the wrong thing.”

I hope he realizes that whether or not he picks red or black is irrelevant if 0 comes up?

Total coward he should go for a single number at 35 to 1

I saw the first of 2 programs over here last Sunday, tomorrow is the final one where he makes the bet live.

My first impressions of the bloke? Pratt! It's not because of the bet, he really is just a complete tosser. Hope it comes up 0 or 00. He's the type of person that if he won the bet then the money would be gone in a month anyway.

If he'd made the bet in London or anywhere else in Europe then at least he'd only have 1 zero. Must say that the progarm had me hooked though

There are wheels over here with one 0. They're just a bit harder to find. But if he's smart he WILL find one. If he bets on a 0 00 wheel then he should just be shot. Of course if he loses he might just do the job himself.

Why doesn't he just flip a coin?

Sky don't know how to do build drama on something so simple.

[WebHead]

He won

[Orangeman]

IMHO, he was still an idiot. He could have just as easily have lost everything; his home, his security, everything he had worked his life for, and wound up living in the poor house.

Can you imagine the copycats out there who are going to try the exact thing he just did? And what if they pick the wrong number? And so he won, but he could have just as easily have lost. He was just lucky he didn't.

I think he deserved to loose - just for being stupid enough to bet everything he had....and for the example he set for others..

[Archer]

Hes probably daft enough to do it again anyway

[meatwad]

I'm still kind of curious what kind of wheel he rolled on. Did anybody see the video?

[gazzak]

1-36 with 0 and 00. That's all I know otherwise one wheel looks like any other to me!

What an idiot! There are wheels out there with a single 0. He calls himself a professional gambler? I barely know anything about gambling and even I know that.

His primary problem would have been to find a casino that would accept a $130,000 bet at their roulette table. Maybe there wasn't anyplace with a single 0 on their wheel that was willing to cover a bet that large.

Casinos love publicity. Plus it's Vegas. There HAD to be someone willing to take a chance on it.

Which makes me wonder Meatwad, how on the "up and up" this really was.

Not only did he get a red, but he got a '7' or "Lucky 7" red.

Getting a red could be honest but I have to ask myself what the odds are of getting a Lucky 7 red.

Could there be some kind of chicanery involved? Could the casino by encouraging people to bet their life savings based on this guy's luck?

I'd like to see the tape too!

[Fubarian]

"there's a fine line between genius and insanity" ...that guy just proved what can happen when you push that line.

Call him stupid all you want -- he just doubled everything he had.
