Gambler to sue bookie...


A compulsive gambler is suing a betting chain which let him lose approx. £2m (€2.7m) after he asked to be barred.
Greyhound trainer Graham Calvert, 28, from Tyne & Wear, wants William Hill to pay back his losses on the grounds they failed in their duty of care.
Mr Calvert said he told William Hill to ban him in May 2006, but later opened another account and lost £2 million, including £347,000 on a bet that the US would win the Ryder Cup.

I wonder....would he have sued the betting chain if he won £2 million instead?
