Phil Ivey Wins £7.3M In Two Nights At London Casino, And Casino Not Paying


Recommended Posts

I got heaved for counting on a low limit BJ table just for running progressive bets. (And counting.,, with a bored prostitite... and heroin,,.)

 

I can't imagine Ivey playing at those levels isn't being watched closer than a junior high boys swim team at the NAMBLA pool.

 

Did they let you keep the winnings? As I understood it casinos let you keep your winnings even if you're accused of card counting at BJ, since it can't be proven and it's not really cheating unless you are also colluding with other players at the table. They can of course kick you out and say you're never welcome back, but I didn't think they could keep your winnings unless they can prove something more than just having a brilliant memory. But maybe I'm wrong.

It would really help our poker community (especially FCP) if someone had the balls to write a good poker related screenplay.

this makes me like phil even more.

I don't like to jump into anything to quick either. You gotta vet them for a couple years before you can trust them.

Yes.

The boss came over with what I'm guessing was 8-10 security guards and told me to pack my shit. I asked why, he said my betting patterns indicated 'illegal counting behaviors', that they were not permabanning me but asking me to leave now and suggesting I not play blackjack anymore. Escorted me to cash out, then escorted me to the door, then 4 guards waited with me at the entrance while the valet got my car.

Don't trust him Suited. He probably just forged Twitter. Or hacked someone's screen name and then changed the profile pic.

 

Or maybe he found someone obscure Ivey was already following and then made his FCP account with the same gay Korean avatar and name.

 

You just can't trust the internet anymore. It's not like the good old days.

First of all: I'm not Korean. And Narum is my last name.

 

I'm honoured, though. That you think I'd go through all that trouble. <3

Nice tats though. We used to have a guy around here who had tats and loved a tranny that looked an awful lot like you. No offense, she was hot.

I was right about you being gay though? It's no big deal. Trust me, Daniel is totally cool with that. *wink*

I'd be happy to. Vikings raided not only in the UK, but also on mainland Russia/Baltic. The area had been raped by Steepe Nomads from time immemorial and Steepe Nomads are, by and large, gooky. The Viking raiders took slaves home with them, and as a result there can be a hint of gook in otherwise pure Scandinavians. I would guess our friend has a Hun slave ancestor.

This Steepe Genetic exchange went both ways, btw. Genghis Khan was said to have red hair and green eyes.

 

Well I'll be damned. I'm a Norse/Fin, with viking (and probably mongolian) ancestry. I have red beard and green eyes.

Just because I'm good looking, doesn't make me gay... giphy.gif
