"Gonna pull out all my cash and vet it on red" ... What does that mean?

It's a Roulette bet - instead of picking individual number(s) you're betting all your $ on that spin of the Roulette wheel that the little ball is going to settle on a red space/number. I've seen many people throw down BIG bucks on either red or black:

There are a couple good size lakes in between that casino and Mt. Saint Helens. Before I even looked at a map, Adventures with Purpose came to mind. I wonder if they would take a look at this case? Google Maps

Comment here - Log in or sign up to view says camera showed him pull into the casino and leave at 9:00 PM, his phone went dead at 9:30 PM. I saw a family member say Terry never went into the casino. It looks like you could go off the road (503) and into Yale Lake in some spots?

Just seeing this case for the first time.

The MSM link says that Terry Shinaver was last seen at the Ilani Casino, but no other details are provided. We know he arrived there, but how long he was there, if he met with anyone while there, whether he won or lost money, or whether he was seen leaving the casino is not mentioned.

I can't see his FB posts but from I see earlier in the thread he was planning on playing Roulette.
"Gonna pull out all my cash and vet it on red" ... What does that mean?
Typically casinos have security personnel on the gaming floor and cameras installed everywhere, so basically anything that takes place on the gaming floor or near the exits is seen and recorded. Many casinos also have parking lot security cameras as well as foot or vehicle patrols.

We know Terry's truck is reported as missing. He didn't leave it in the casino parking lot since it would have been found quickly. Therefore, because his truck was not found at the casino, we can infer that left the casino in his truck at some point.

The question is, what happened next? Without additional facts from LE we would just be speculating as to what may have happened here.

I'm inclined to believe LE probably knows more about Terry's activities at the casino than they have released so far.
