I am not impressed at all.

Now if he had not only bet his life savings, but put himself into debt for the same amount and put it all on a colour...

Wouldn't that be +EV w/ a near 50% shot at quadrupling your net worth (betting 2x your net worth) vs. the downside of declaring bankruptcy? I see very little difference between bring busto and being bankrupt...compared to the difference of doubling to quadrupling your upside.

After he won, I was hoping he was going to yell-
"Let it ride baby!"

that would have been sweet...

It is hard to get someone to loan you money when you don't have anything left to put up against the loan. Banks aren't stupid.

Very true. To borrow money then gamble it is very stoopid

You think to go that far he would have the sense to have played euro or french roulette both with a much lower house edge..

He should have put it on black
