Which premiership player lost 1 million pounds at his local casino?
Saturday 17th January 2009
The Internet is rife with rumours that a football star from the UK Premier league lost over £1 million at his local casino through the week. The player in question is said to have broken down in tears at the massive loss and while his name has not been mentioned officially, there is intense speculation as to who it may be. How can you lose £1 million at a casino?
While it is very easy to lose big money at a casino, the fact that this UK premiership star lost over £1 million in one night would suggest that he was either very unlucky or he is a very poor casino player. There has been a long-term link between heavily paid UK football stars and various casinos up and down the country, with many players having fallen into the gambling addiction trap.
No doubt we will soon find out which player is said to have lost over £1 million although the football authorities would probably want to look closely at the situation. There are very strict regulations with regards to gambling by football stars, which are upheld by the UK Football Association.
Does anybody hazard a guess as to who this star footballer may be?
