its left up to our imagination i choose to believe that he won
shareFor a few episodes down the road there I wanted to believe he had won as well, but Lightman and group continued struggling for money after that and continued to do so up until Clara Musso ended up "saving" them with the investment fund she practically owned, so I don't know, it seems to me he most likely lost... and find it even cooler! Plus, he was always winning when Reynolds was betting on different numbers.
shareIt's been a while since I last saw that ep, but didn't Reynolds always win by choosing his own numbers and ignoring Cal?
shareI think it's a safe bet (no pun intended) to say he lost that $1 million. The payout for picking the exact number on roulette is 35 to 1. So, if he had won $35 million, his company probably wouldn't have had the financial problems later on. Although, you could also say that someone stupid enough to lose $1 million on a single bet could have also lost $35 million.
shareThat was a hilarious episode. I believe he lost because the company had a lot of money problems and caused much tension between Lightman and Foster. If he had won I think he would have invested that money into his own company.
