Double or nothing

When I go to the casino, I’m going for entertainment. It’s like going to the movies to me. Nothing more. I enjoy all the aspects. Watching people get excited when they win is a lot of fun. Watching people lose also has it’s entertainment value. If you go to the casino thinking that you are going to strike it rich, you are gambling for all the wrong reasons.

In this guy’s case, I think it’s a little bit different. I think he’s just a mental case. He’s sold all his worldly possesions and is heading to the casino to place a single wager for all his money. To me, that’s just insane. But, I guess if you have no wife or kids to look after, anybody could build back up from nothing if push came to shove.

UPDATE!
Here’s the follow up. The guy put it all on the line. Can you say “Lucky number 7″? He bet it all on red and it hit. He did not let it ride after that and walked away with $270,000. Lucky bastard!
