Man sells everything puts it all on one spin in roulette

[excel]

They say he sold everything he had and put it on one color.





They say he used all his winnings to open a online poker site.

[excel]

I bet they would have sh*t if he doubled down a couple times.

[OmgUrMom]

seen this awhile ago, have no idea what i think of it

[pat venditto]

Seen this quite a while ago. I give this guy credit he's got some balls to put his life on the line with less than 49% chance of winning.

Many others have committed suicide after they have failed trying to do this. Not easy winning gambling hence why 99.999999% work normal jobs.

Lucky number 7.

[pat venditto]

Onlooker the casinos dont even care that they lost. This video created/influenced tons of degens worldwide.

Yeah, I don't think 136K hurt them to much.

[Lincoln73]

He actually stayed pretty calm considering what was on the line.

[thirtytwo]

i probably would have a heart attack if i were him... he has some steel nerves indeed if its real...

[Powderguy]

Damn

[LLXC]

Thought it took more to start an online poker site?

[wtt0315]

wow crazy

[samdapatriotsfan]

LOL, I don't this is real. If it was a reputable news agency would have followed this story. Heck they followed the girl selling her virginity. This would have to be more exciting than that............if it were real.

[THEGREAT30]

what a douche, good day

[cyh10485]

this cannot be real

[cyh10485]

what a moron..at least play blackjack

[Socrates]

My nuts are too tiny to ever do something like this. Congrats to him if this is all real.

[pmoney316]

They did this on an episode of Las Vegas years ago. The guy lost it all, but in the end James Caan paid him back.

[oldtim]

haha thats cool

[terpkeg]

This looks like a b.s promo for his poker site.

[THEGREAT30]

suicide, good day

This is real

It was a risky publicity stunt and stupid if he thought doubling his money could fund his poker site.

James Caan is a good man.

[lukahh]

this story misses some important details... for example, if his parents are rich, he may have been gambling with 1/10 or even less of family possessions.

[rwsmith]

yeah but if his parents are rich i think he would have been worth alot more than around 130 k himself

[stikymess]

Dont think i can get 136k for all my junk. My luck that sucker lands on green.

[SportsAddict]

I literally started having heart palpitations after watching this video. The anxiety i felt was almost as if it was my bet, thats sickening. I would have probably committed suicide if I did that and lost. Surprised his family and friends were there. My dad would die of a heart attack from me telling him that was my plan.

[talnted]

his life savings was 136K?

[lukahh]

I Surprised his family and friends were there. My dad would die of a heart attack from me telling him that was my plan.

yes! the fact they were there and not too nervous shows it was probably not a life-changing risk for the family, but rather a publicity stunt. worked very well, kudos to them.

[2Bdown]

stupid, just stupid

[Daveyboy]

Legend!

[chipper]

Wow, that was nuts... why roulette though with a 5+% house edge? I think I would have played a hand of baccarat or placing the 6/8 on craps or something with a smaller house edge.

[Kaabee]

Someone should have told him that Vegas has casinos with single zero roulette.

[necro]

He is a fookin idiot and i wish him to lose!

[JohnnyD4916]

My Luck I would have lost it all.
