Ashley Ravell

On April 13 2004 at the Plaza Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada, Ashley Ravell had his last chance to go mad.

Ravell sold his entire possession to wage it on a single spin of a roulette wheel. He raise money through garage sale to sell everything he own. He even change his middle name after a sponsor by deed poll to get more money for this one change in a lifetime gamble.
