While the profits that Quek Leng Chan is hoping for will come from the deep pockets of London's international superrich the casino profits of the Sixties came largely from the aristocracy, many of whom sold houses, paintings and farms to raise funds for losses (even Taki Theodoracopulos lost his house to John Aspinall one disastrous night).

James Osborne, managing director of Aspinalls, says he sees this new 'international effect' at the beginning and end of the school terms. 'We always have a little boost of business from parents, because all the rich Malaysians and Singaporeans send their children to English public schools.'

So although the idea behind both the English Clermont bids, Damian Aspinall/Jamie Packer and Goldsmith brothers and Ben Elliot respectively, was to return the Clermont Club to its former glory, the reality is that the sort of ultra-rich international punters who now frequent London's salon prives (with the exception of the Wednesday night game played at Aspinalls, regulars including Ben

and Zac Goldsmith, Ben Elliot and Tom Parker Bowles) are a very different gambling crowd from the original Clermont set.

According to Lady Lucan, just before their 1963 marriage, Lucan explained to her that he intended on making his living as a professional gambler. His gambling tutor was Stephen Raphael, a London stockbroker. Under his influence, Lucan made a distinction between games of skill (poker, backgammon and bridge) as opposed to games of chance (roulette, chemin de fer). He told his wife Veronica that the latter games were strictly for 'mug punters' (ie, not him). In the months leading up to his marriage, Lucan could be found most nights of the week learning poker at a poker school at the Hamilton Club, off Park Lane.

Meanwhile, the Clermont had opened for business and Lucan became a leading figure at the casino. During the afternoons and early evening, he would play backgammon. After a dinner of wild smoked salmon, he would break his own rules and play chemin de fer or blackjack until early in the morning. Her husband, Lady Lucan adds, was never a house player (somebody employed by the 'house' to play house chips to add glamour) although sometimes he played with half his money and half someone else's, coming to be known as 'Blue Lucan'.

'I sat away from my husband when he played so I might come and go without being obvious so he'd never associate me with winning or losing,' says Lady Lucan. 'He also used to say that he added "tone" to what would have been a very vulgar proceeding without him.' When he ran the Clermont, Aspinall was…
