World Famous Roulette Players

By Paul Shaw

I am going to speak for a few moments about famous roulette players. For as long as roulette has been around, people have been attempting to beat it, and very few actually have. This is down to the casino having the upper hand on the game, making it unbeatable.

When someone does win a lot of money it doesnt take long for them to become famous among roulette players and casino enthusiasts although it doesnt happen very often.

The famous roulette players are able to win so much money because they have figured out the roulette wheel bias. In other words, they have spent a large amount of time studying a roulette wheel, made notes of which numbers come up most, and then bet on those numbers.

The most well known famous roulette player is Joseph Jagger. He became famous for winning a six figure sum; a huge amount considering that it was the year 1873 when he won. This was at the Monte Carlo casino, and he won by applying the system described above.

Amazingly, the very same casino got hit with the same system just a few years later, by another well known successful player, Charles Wells. Its incredible how this casino managed to get stung twice.

A more recent successful player is Gonzalo Garcia-Pedayo, in 1990; he spent time studying the roulette wheels at a casino in Madrid, Spain, and put the same system into practice.

With the help of his family they moved all over Europe and then onto Las Vegas applying the same system. Gonzalo eventually gave it up in 1994 when he started suffering health problems due to the constant stress he was under to continue winning while staying under the radar of the casino pit bosses.

Perhaps the luckiest of all famous roulette players is Ashley Revell. He walked into a casino and put his entire life savings of over $100,000 on red. Fortunately for him, red came up and he doubled his money, this was an insane thing to do though, there was just as much chance that black would have come up, then his entire life savings would have been lost on a single bet. - 29943
