Blackjack Robin Hood to help two deserving families this year
December 20th, 2009 - 8:31 pm ICT by Aishwarya Bhatt ( Leave a comment )Las Vegas, Dec 20 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Last year a modern Robin Hood helped a family get out of debt and begin life afresh. And this year, he has roped in other benefactors too, and plans to help not one, but two deserving families this year who are facing a financial crisis and need immediate help.
This ‘Robin Hood 702’ describes himself as a “self-made man and expert Blackjack player” and he plans to help a family in financial dire straits, based on their video submission. After selecting the family, he will fly them to Las Vegas, providing an all-expense paid weekend, which includes a true high-roller suite, show tickets , spa appointments, and meals. Robin Hood 702’s web site claims, “You will live like the high roller Robin Hood 702 is, then watch him win the money you need to become debt-free.” Robin Hood 702 guarantees that if you’re selected, at least half of your bills will get paid no matter what happens at the Blackjack table. He says that the family will need to play Blackjack with him, and if they lose then they will get half of the money and if they win, then they will obviously get the full amount.
“I’m looking for anyone that’s in debt … that needs some help” says the anonymous gambler, who will be working the tables in Sin City in the New Year to raise money for another family in need. “I’m going to look for the story that’s really going to touch my heart. That’s it.”
Last year he had flown in Kurt, Megan and Madison Kegler to Las Vegas first class, and accommodating them up in a luxurious suite, taking them to shows, treating them to expensive meals and spa treatments. After the Blackjack game, the poor family was richer by $35,000. They went back speechless to their respective lives. And this year, he plans to sponsor not one, but two families, as he has the financial sponsorship of some of his other wealthy friends too.
