What better way to learn about the game than taking a page out of the legendary roulette winners’ playbook.
What better way to learn about the game than taking a page out of the legendary roulette winners’ playbook.
Would there have been a karate kid without Mr. Miyagi as his neighbour? How about the extraordinary X-men without Professor Xavier’s guidance? And what about the making of the greatest Jedi of all time, Luke Skywalker? (highly debatable but that’s a different story) Without Master Yoda’s koans and lightsaber 101s, he would have never defeated Darth Vader in the most exhilarating duel to grace the silver screen.
By the very token, the best way to master the wheel in our opinion is to be guided by legendary ones who have left a conspicuous mark in this game of chance. While we are not entirely handing out the cheat sheets on online roulette; we have decided to show you the ways of the force, to choose your roulette guru; your spiritual gambling twin. Even though it may not be a strategy, at the very least a motivation and hope for our players!
So young Padawans, stay on this path and learn from our list of well-known roulette players:
Wells was on the brink of losing it all; at one hand an imminent divorce and on the other hand, his treasured possession, a yacht to be whisked away from him. Desperate times call for desperate measures? Maybe not, it was probably a calculated and habitual move for Charles Wells; a man of questionable character with a list of rumored frauds and shady activities linked to him. But then again, we cannot confirm the validity of these claims either.
Today he is known as the Man who broke the Bank at Monte Carlo, for his mass winning back in the 18th century. There is a book depicting his scheming wins, a 1935 biopic, a song written about this and if he were to live today would probably be an Instagram influencer. This astonishing man who claims to have found a foolproof gambling method by breaking the bank a lucky ten times may actually have a sound explanation for it. If you want to know how he made it, check out Robert Quinn in his book ‘The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo: Charles Deville Wells, Gambler and Fraudster Extraordinaire’
Joseph Hobson Jagger is just like Charles Wells, only less despicable and more analytical on his wins; that he should be the real Man who broke the Bank at Monte Carlo. At least that’s what his great great niece Anne Fletcher thinks in her book ‘From the Mill to Monte Carlo: The Working-Class Englishman Who Beat the Monaco Casino and Changed Gambling Forever’.
Now, there is an ongoing debate, one that has not found any end as to who actually is the Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo, or if the popular song by Frederick Gilbert was in fact inspired by Jagger? We are not going to be dwelling on this dispute, instead focus on his ways. His winnings were actually a product of his detailed study on the mechanics of the roulette wheels. Not sure if it is still applicable in this time and day but with a little bit of innovation, who knows what great mysteries may be unlocked?
Ashley Revell made this list because of his unhinged decision to take the plunge. This guy sold off ALL his possessions (We’re not kidding, go check out the CNN headline this guy made) before heading out to Las Vegas with a troop documenting his every move.
It was ‘now or never’ and Ashley Revell’s mantra was just that, when he decided to risk everything he owned including his sentimental valuables. He was young, single and there couldn’t be a better time do just drop everything in the hands of ladyluck.
Revell placed his entirety on a single spin of the wheel and then the rest as we all know it, is history. Revell took a trip to Europe, found the love of his life and opened up an iGaming site. A fantastic casino fairytale isn’t? Experience what he must have felt in this short documentary of his treasured moment.
Mike Ashley is a business tycoon and a high-rolling gambler. These two personalities probably come hand in hand when dealing with uncertainty and risks especially in front of the roulette wheel – or is Ashley just the most optimistic person around?
Number seventeen was Ashley’s choice, who is said to have been fond of the number. We are not quite if there is a separate story to where it all started, but it turns out this number sure holds a special place to the majority roulette players. Ashley won over a million placing all his bets on lucky number seventeen and all in a span of few minutes. He probably had the money to splurge or it was probably his precarious ways that brought him victory on the roulette wheel.
Conclusion
Most of the personalities listed above, probably had no idea the jackpot awaiting them and there is no sure way to know either. An unpopular opinion, but one that should be known to the universe; learning the ways to win the online roulette and winning an actual game could quite possible be a moot point. So, take these free tips by these guys as an inspiration and keep in mind that the game of chance relies on highly debatable strategies as well as lady luck. The latter we unfortunately have no control over.
