This guy seems to know his sports and well done to him on winning. I know it is probably a drop in the ocean for him but to win a million is good going in anybody's book.

I truly don't see the point in gambling when money has no value any more...
Poker is different, there's prestige in winning. It gets to a point where it's not about the money any more... but this ludicrous "look how much money I have" brag is wearing thin.
He seems to know his sports, yet lost an incredible sum on Denver a year ago when he backed them in the Super Bowl against Seattle. So he is just likes to gamble.

With his sort of money I don't really see where the thrill in betting comes from,especially betting at very low odds.If he wants excitement then try betting 20 million a time.Having watched his arrogance when it comes to money I can't say I have any joy in seeing him win.

Dunno about the two chicken comparsion, personaly I could watch Ali-Frazier or Foreman-Ali anytime. And these two boxers obviously' the big ones' we could get today. So what, they did a boring matchup five years too late.
