It’s expensive though! You can play these kinds of bets online on the more advanced games like Premier Roulette Diamond. It’s kind of like going “All in” in poker. If this is your favourite number and you just know it’s going to come in (or you have placed a magnet under the number on the wheel), you make a Complete Bet to go full throttle on that number. You maximise your pay-back on an individual number as you have covered it from all possible angles. The idea behind the Complete Bet is as follows. It’s safe to say it was a big bet though, and by the look of their reaction is was a big win too! Any Pit Boss looking at might have judged that the odds were very much in the casino’s favour with such a low coverage bet. According to a former croupier from the Conrad, it is unlikely that the casino would allow such a big bet on a single number so probably there is some exaggeration going on.īut the fact that it was the Grendene family might have swayed it (they are former shareholders of the hotel). Looking at the table, that looks more likely but then we don’t know the value of those chips and the secrecy shutters have come down. The Brazilian El Pais newspaper reports the bet at $ 50,000 (160,000 Brazilina reais). It’s a similar strategy used by Mike Ashley, the owner of Newcastle United Football Club, who pulled off a similar coup on the number 17. And when the ball dropped into 32, all of those bets hit too. But those 4 piles of chips that surround the number are also going to be paying out at 17:1. You might think that the tower of chips on 32 is going to fuel that massive pay-out. Try a bet on 32 at 32 Red…the Obvious Choice?Īnd that’s an important distinction. He hasn’t covered all of the angles, it looks like he’s just covered the 8 numbers around the bet with Split Bets- let’s call it a “Mini Complete” bet. He made a modified Complete Bet on number 32- that’s a bet that covers the number from every possible combination of Inside Bets- so the single number bet, the Split Bets, the Square bets, the Street Bets and so on. Well, if you look closely at the table, there is a possible explanation as you’ll see that it looks like Pedro didn’t just make a single number bet on number 32.

Why $3.5 million I hear you ask when the pay off on a single number bet is only 35:1 which would have netted him “only” $1.2 million.
