Famous gamblers and big win prizes
Although the majority of people who gamble or play games of chance remain out of the limelight unless they are lucky enough to win prizes of a colossal amount, there have been many famous gamblers throughout history who have won large prizes and on occasion place bets on more unusual items.
Number 17 appears to be a lucky number for actor Sean Connery as while playing roulette in Italy, he bet and won on the number three times in a row at odds of 50.000 – 1 and left $27,000 richer in prize money. Legendary gambler Nick "The Greek" Dandalos has a lot of staying power as he played poker at a Vegas casino for five months straight, stopping only to sleep. Thanks to a lucky big win of easy cash, Claude Monet was able to quit his job as a messenger and focus on painting after winning the sum of $13,450 which was a huge sum of money in those days. In sums of which most of us can only dream, Kerry Packer once won an instant win of $26 million while playing Blackjack for $200,000 a hand.
Unusual instant win bets
When people place bets they normally bet on a horse or a more traditional form of gambling such as scratch cards but Huck Seed, a two-time World Series poker champion once bet his friends $100,000 that he would be able to do a back flip and land cleanly without using his hands. Amazingly, after hours of practice he won the bet.
Henry VIII, King of England, was known to be a regular gambler and in a more unusual bet, once even lost a church. In 1962, Soviet Leader Nikita Krushchev made a bet that President Kennedy wouldn't take action against the installation of nuclear missiles in Cuba although he lost the bet as Kennedy enforced a naval blockade of the island which almost led to a nuclear war with Russia.
