In the summer of 1891, an unassuming gentleman walks into the Monte Carlo Casino. He sits down at a roulette table and begins an impossible winning streak, ‘breaking the bank’ ten times over and walking away with a fortune. The world celebrates him as a hero who beat the system. But was this legendary feat a miracle, luck, or was the famous 'Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo' pulling off his greatest con of all? In this episode, Lora and Barry investigate the incredible story of Charles Wells.
