Barkley Gambles and Wins Six Figures
13, February 2007
Basketball great and former Dream Team member Charles Barkley is up and happy to let the world know about his good fortune. Gambling over the Super Bowl weekend in Las Vegas, Barkley put a bet on the Colts to win and was paid off handsomely. That, combined with a lot of blackjack in Vegas casinos, turned into about $700,000 for Barkley, who has admitted to a $2.5 million loss in a single night of gambling in the past. Barkley has said that it is only a problem to lose if you can't afford it, and he can.
