Robin Hood Gambler Strikes Again - with a New Merry Man

In 2008, news broke of a professional gambler who, under terms of anonymity, was offering to help one family get out of debt. The Kegler family of Michigan were the lucky winners, receiving $35,000 in assistance to pay off medical debt from the care and treatment of their daughter who had a brain tumor. Their 'winning' didn't stop there, though.

According to a news story by Joshua Rhett Miller, in November 2009, they were given the good news that their daughter was now showing no sign of a tumor. Three-year-old Madison has been improving over time, and the family's benefactor has been in contact with them since making his gift.

This year, Robin Hood is making the same offer to help another family - and a friend is making an offer, as well. Robinhood702, as he likes to be called, will once again select a family to help financially. The terms are the same as last year, with him summing up what he is looking for in a Fox News story as "the story that's really going to touch my heart."

Applicants will need to upload a one to three minute video that explains not only the financial situation, but also the circumstances behind the debt and why help from Robinhood702 is deserved. Verification will be required, and submissions can be made on behalf of others in need.

The winning applicant(s) will be flown to the Palazzo Resort-Hotel Casino where they will be put up in a high-roller suite, treated to shows, spas and meals, and then get to watch Robin Hood play blackjack to win their debt-relief. Robin Hood is offering $25,000 to $50,000 in help for the winning applicant(s), with a guarantee of half of what they owe in debt.

In addition, Robin Hood now has a "Merry Man" who is offering to help a family in need, too, except there will be no gambling involved. This 'band' member will simply select a family from those applying at the RobinHood702 website, put them up in style in Las Vegas and then give them the funds needed for debt-relief. This generous donor is Dr. Schulze of herbdoc.com.

According to a Fox news story, Robin Hood hopes to add more generous donors to his band of Merry Men, believing people should be helping each other out.

More information about the offer from Robin Hood and his Merry Man as well as information about how to apply are available on RobinHood702's website.
