I don't get the whole tub and coin thing, but regarding the rigged roulette table thing, at least in vegas, there is NO way that the roulette tables in the big casinos are rigged. Those places are so regulated that it just doesn't make ANY sense to risk losing a billion dollar casino for a few rigged roulette tables. No way in hell.

HOWEVER, it would be in the casino's best interest if this guy WON, so he better hope that they are rigged (which they are not). The casino would end up paying what... $138,000. For that payout, they'd get international news coverage that gamblers win big there, and would get at least a few hundred million $ in extra gaming revenue from tourists wanting to bet in their "lucky" casino.
I was thinking the same thing. 138,000 is a drop in the bucket for them, and everyone knows that alot of gambler's are incredibly superstitious...they'd be lining up around the block. Probably to play at the very same roulette wheel, too
