Rooney is a gambling 'addict'?
British press revealed that Wayne Rooney lost 500,000 pounds (nearly 15 billion VND) in two hours of gambling at a casino last March.
The MU striker is "addicted" to two games: Roulette and Blackjack. During his visit to Manchester's 235 Casino, Rooney lost heavily because of his "thirsty gambling" style of play.

A casino employee said: "Rooney went to the first Roulette table and placed a large amount of money on the red box. Perhaps he thought the Manchester United shirt would bring him luck. But the result was the opposite."
Rooney spreads £4,000 across each bet. When he loses, he doubles his stake in the hope that his luck will soon return.
It is known that the 31-year-old striker went to the casino at midnight on March 16, right after MU's victory over Rostov in the Europa League.
At Manchester's 235 Casino, Rooney had a VIP account. During his two hours there, he only threw money at roulette and blackjack.

Rooney is addicted to blackjack and roulette |
An observer revealed: "Wayne was betting very recklessly. He was throwing in big chips. He was also sipping a few beers at first.
However, when he is drunk on gambling, Rooney no longer cares about anything around him. The MU striker often bets on red when playing Roulette. When he loses, he is eager to win back so he bets bigger and bigger.
However, luck seemed to turn its back on Rooney. He lost as much as he bet. Many players at the next table were stunned by the large amount of money Rooney threw at the betting table.
Rooney's problem is that he thinks he's lucky and can win. The truth is quite the opposite. The England striker is a terrible blackjack player.
