Fifty London
First opened in 1827 by a flamboyant entrepreneur of the day, the casino at 50 St James Street was designed by the fashionable architect Benjamin Wyatt, and quickly became known as "the Ascot of gambling" or "the most talked about gambling hall in the most talked about street in the most talked about city in the world."
