A tweet from Boyd last weekend confirmed that he was selling one of his Bellagio bracelets with a meltdown gold value of $2,600. Posting under the name "jacknames222", the listing has now caught the attention of the forum crowd prompting some less than flattering observations. At present a total of zero bids have been placed, which means you could own a piece of poker bling for the reserve price of $1,500.

He can play a hu for 2.600$ and if he win he have a bracelet and some bucks. There are a chance nearly 50:50 Or he can play a tourney with a staking and sold shares from his bracelet...

The only thing i can say here, is what pochui is mentioning. Its melting value. Cause as a bracelet i must say its ugly It is a trophy but an ugly one. And it looks even more silly when some is wearing it.

Well I gotta say - he must be desperate or Skint !!
If I won one of them bracelets I could not imagine selling it on e-bay - he'd be better off send it to "cash for gold" least get the melt down value - 5%.......
