A British man who sold all his clothes and the rest of his possessions, bet everything on a single spin of the roulette wheel -- and won. Ashley Revell, a 32-year-old Londoner, sold everything in March. He took $135,300 to the Plaza Hotel in Las Vegas, did some low stakes gambling in a rented tux, and then put it all on Red. He spun the wheel, the ball bumped over the slots and landed on Red '7' -- and Revell walked away with $270,600.
