A US version of Sky One's Double Or Nothing will air on the FOX Reality Channel in April, Variety reports today.

The show, aired in the UK in 2004, follows one contestant as they sell up all of their life's posessions before betting the cash sum on a 'double or nothing' roulette spin in Vegas.

The first episode will introduce the viewers to the contestant and track their progress as they auction off their belongings while the second will air live from the Las Vegas casino.

Double Or Nothing is the first of many original reality series the channel is planning.
