Gambling For Good, The Legend Of Robin Hood 702
Filed under: Big Givers
If you are going to help the poor why not have some fun doing it? It seems like the mysterious Robin Hood 702 is having a great time gambling his way to good deeds. The unknown gambler chooses needy families and gives them his winnings. The Daily Telegraph tells a story in which one couple was flown to Las Vegas and treated to first-class flights and a suite in the Palazzo hotel. Once there, the gambler met them and proceeded to use his own money to begin to win them money. He went down hundreds of thousands of dollars before he rallied and won $35,000 for the couple. On his website Robin Hood 702, he says that he wants to get money from the casinos and give the proceeds to the poor. People are invited to send in video or web submissions asking for help and if selected he will try to win up to $50,000 for the lucky recipients. He has given television interviews but with his face in shadow. He is reputed to have won and lost six-figure sums in a single night. Robin Hood 702 has been featured on Fox News multiple times. Recently Dr. Schulze from herbdoc.com agreed to help another family and will be picking from one of the submissions on the Robin Hood 702 site.
