Ivey is a big gambler. Top 5% in Vegas == absolutely. Top 5% on the planet == no f'ing way.

So if you assemble a room of 100 random gamblers, at least 4 of them will be bigger gamblers than Ivey?

“"These guys can well afford the losses," said one high-roller who is a regular at Singapore's two casinos - at Resorts World Sentosa and Marina Bay Sands. However, while gamblers losing $10 million to $20 million over a few sessions in the rooms reserved for high-rollers are no longer a rare breed, the source said that whispers of these two businessmen parting with a total of $150 million have raised more than a few eyebrows, even among the regulars.

News of these two multi-million-dollar casino losers comes amid an update that local businessman Henry Quek, who lost $26 million during a three-day gambling spree, is said to have settled his debts.”

Let's make an analogy to bumhunting, they stroke gold. They got scout on their HU table, at the highest limits ever!!!!11 and he keeps reloading... This happens very rarely, but it can happen. Meanwhile you wait for him to return you should take the smaller action aswell. It's just plain stupid not to.

Stick to your 9-5's and talking with other sheep about how much smarter you are than Ivey and how he'll be broke in 20 years and if it were you and your money, you'd be set for life.

Daniel Negreanu thinks that Ivey is the biggest gambler in Vegas, for whatever it's worth.

He is probably the biggest regular gambler in the world and almost certainly the biggest gambler in Vegas. I won't touch on amounts, but it's A LOT.

Ivey throws dice straight up into the ceiling? Like literally he just goes "HUHH!!!!" and throws the dice vertically, 20 feet into the ****ing air, they bounce off the ceiling, and come crashing down into the craps table? Seems kinda... ******ed.

OP and myself started this thread. I am not sure why Adam W is posting these things, I don't know if they are true but it's bringing the credibility of the story down.

Adam, if you have proof post it, if not please stop posting.
