Poker legends Daniel Negreanu, Gus Hansen, Patrik Antonius, Doyle Brunson and Phil Ivey (left to right in picture) all headed to Bellagio last week for some high-stakes action. With ‘high-stakes action' we are not only referring to high stakes cash games but also proposition bets!

This really is a crazy way to gamble. The amount of money these guys bet is unbelievable and they bet on all kind of weird things. I wonder who wins the most on these prop bets?
He is a guy without honor, so there is a big chance he collaborates with another player. Why would even someone want to play with that scammer? Yes I am talking about Phil Ivey, I know most of you guys are a "beta fanboys" of that heartless prick, that doesn't matter that much, most of the girls also like wrong guys and they fail to see the true nature of people.
So if any asskisser wants to support Ivey, go ahead, it means you have no soul/heart/character.

Wow first time i hear about this kind of gambling. But these guys have so much money that they don't care about it losing 450K in one night is nothing just a little juicy game. . This kind of gambling looks like worst than any other casino game. I don't have the money but even for less amount a would never play this kind of game.

He lost almost 500k in pro bets These players are addicted to gambling. I think in the last paragraph Negreanu sums it up, the way it actually is, by saying : This is essentially juice free gambling for degens... End of story !!!

well all this gathering of old famous degens seems fishy to say the least, probably some sort of pr stunt... oh and these prop bets, right as if dudes have zillions in their accounts or became inspired by dan bilzerian so much that all they think about at poker tables is prop bets... probably someone written a script which was executed masterfully by these degens.

Proposition bet... I know what it is. When risk goes up, the potential return tends to go up accordingly, or maybe it won't. Well, it is nice to see Daniel Negreanu, Gus Hansen, Patrik Antonius, Doyle Brunson, and Phil Ivey together again in Vegas!
