 Ask him to make the biggest bet of all! Lay you on the roulette table and have him bet! If he loses the casino workers get to have you in front of him ! See if that changes his desire to gamble!

 Gambling, can be an addiction, just like drugs, sex, alcohol, or food disorders.
If he won't admit and accept that he has a problem, there is nothing you can do to "fix it."
An addict has no consciense. Lying is their survival mechanism. It's nothing personal and has nothing to do with love or lack of love.
He needs help! If he is unwilling to admit/accept that, maybe you should consider moving on!

Seriously, if he's having these problems, reconsider your whole relationship. The last thing you need is to be brought into a huge mess.

 Gambling is a disgusting disease. He lies because he is embarrased. With gambling, there are highs (winning) and lows (all other times in between). If you love him, make him get help. He can't do it alone.
Good Luck!
