Would you bet everything on one spin of the wheel?

I don't know if this is real or staged, but pretty out there, and my lucky number came up, I'm going to Vegas Baby :cool:

    I don't know if that's real or staged, either, but that red head in the background with the Leprachaun hat on is pretty sparky !

    Mmmmmm .... Leprachauns ......

    That video kind of sounds like a Reality Show thing.

    Most of the time, I would call myself conservative in nature when it comes to gambling, but then again I have bet it all on a single spin before since I am on my third marriage......:wink:

    No, terrible odds. Craps and blackjack are where it's at to have a fighting chance at winning and these are true games with some skill, not blind luck.

    Why do you think the casinos ban gamblers who are good at counting cards playing blackjack? Because they frequently win!

    Outside of counting cards, blackjack doesn't take much "skill." You memorize the little table of when to hit and when to stay, and that's it.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.
