Luck at 08:39

In 1950, at the Las Vegas Desert Inn, a sailor had made twenty-seven straight passes (wins) with the dice at craps. The odds against such a feat are 12,467,890 to 1. If he would have bet the house limit on each roll he would have earned $268 million! But, he was way to timid with his wagers and he walked away from the table with only $750. The dice today are enshrined in the hotel on a velvet pillow under glass.
