Is Rooney a gambling addict?

British media revealed that Wayne Rooney lost £500,000 (nearly 15 billion VND) in two hours of gambling at a casino last March.

The Manchester United striker is known to be "addicted" to two games: Roulette and Blackjack. During a visit to Manchester's 235 Casino, Rooney lost heavily due to his gambling addiction.

Manchester's 235 casino, a place Rooney often visits.

A casino employee said: "Rooney went to the roulette table first and placed a large sum of money on the red square. Perhaps he thought the color of his Manchester United jersey would bring him luck. But the result was the opposite."

Rooney would bet £4,000 on each wager. When he lost, he would double his bet in the hope that his luck would soon return.

Reportedly, the 31-year-old striker arrived at the casino at midnight on March 16th, right after Manchester United's victory over Rostov in the Europa League.

At Manchester's 235 Casino, Rooney had a VIP account. During his two-hour visit, he only bet money on roulette and blackjack.

Rooney is addicted to blackjack and roulette.

An observer revealed: "Wayne was betting very recklessly. He was throwing around chips of high denominations. Initially, he even took a few sips of beer."

However, when gambling, Rooney loses all sense of awareness. The Manchester United striker frequently bets on the red side when playing roulette. When he loses, he gets desperate to recoup his losses, so he bets bigger and bigger.

However, luck seemed to turn its back on Rooney. He lost everything he bet. Many players at the next table were stunned by the large sums of money Rooney threw into the betting.

Rooney's problem is that he thinks he's lucky and can win. The truth is quite the opposite. The English striker is terrible at blackjack.

Coleen, his wife, was furious when she saw her husband wasting money on gambling.

The casino staff kept a close eye on Rooney and were always ready to assist him in the VIP area. Rooney earned a lot from football, but in fact, he squandered a considerable amount of money in just two hours of gambling.

Coleen heard the news that her husband had lost a bet, and she flew into a rage, giving Rooney a good scolding. In the past, the two had argued frequently when Rooney often indulged in gambling.
