I actually believe Ivey did that... Its Vegas, they probably do keep that many bottles on them...

Still, Phil Ivey has been the person who has made the biggest headlines this year because of his huge sidebets. When Ivey won his first bracelet this year he reputedly said that he is going to win another one in two weeks and took all the bets people were willing to make.

Well, needless to say that he did just that and won huge amounts of money in those bets. The always standing $200k bet with Daniel Negreanu is pennies compared to these bets which are rumored to be worth a miraculous $14 million dollars!

Barry, care to make a statement on this?

Kinda contradicts what Ivey said in a video, that he wasn't able to make those bets before the second bracelets...

I've worked at a few nice restaurants, not Vegas, but nice anyways. No way they had 200 bottles of Cristal on hand.

Okay, I said that before I read the whole thread. Bad zoobat.

I still can't believe they would have 200+ bottles of Cristal. Think about it, what about Moet, Veuve Clicquot, Krug, Perrier-Jouët, Dom, etc. People are just as likely to order Dom as Cristal. So, to have a rack that had 200+ bottles of Cristal, Dom, Moet, etc would be ginormous.

Either way.
