Some pics of Ray Allen at the tables.

I prefer the $10 minimum tables at the Flamingo.

[The Giant]

Kind of surprising. Hasn't he gone like 20 years without eating a cheeseburger?

You would think he would have more self-control.

When I lived in Vegas my wife worked as a Pit Clerk at Mandalay Bay when it opened, then moved over to New York New York...He's a piker compared to guys like Jordan, Barkley, Antoine Walker, Charles Oakley, and Morris Peterson. Those dudes used to roll in and open markers for $500k and up ...and when they lost...they lost big time

[yisman]

yeah Antoine Walker blew over 100 million and wound up completely broke

[No coincidences]

Bottoms....

[jjgold]

why??

I doubt he does this a lot..he has all the money and world and blowing it on a game you cannot beat

Why??

You can beat Blackjack. One of the easiest games to beat in a casino.

[jjgold]

Paver yes but your not a card counter

very few in the world are

Do not give me all your engineer bs..you guys think one way on every issue and never bend

[TheMetsSuck]

sounds like he lost only 40k am i missing something. that seems like good self control considering the amount of damage he could have done

yeah 40k seems like nothing if it's a once-in-a-while thing. how many of jordan's gambling buddies have wound up completely broke?

[BigDaddy]

40k lol

they spend that on a night out drinking in a club

no story here.

TMZ running out of shit to talk about?

[jjgold]

Its still a lot,,hey Ray maybe give some of that money to sick children and their families that do not have much??? I hope he does stuff like that instead of giving it away.

He has a foundation for juvenile diabetes as his son walker has the disease.

[jjgold]

That's cool then Darker

I always think rich people should give way more than anyone else

[unluckysob]

think they should at least have attractive dealers in that room.

Dealer/bodyguards.He was in Tahoe betting 10 to 15 thousand in the golf tournament.

Tough crowd. Dude has proven he is a great guy and now it comes out that he gambles at least once in awhile. And a bunch of degenerate stiffs that post everyday on a forum and think gambling is the best thing in life rip him for it. Guys, he's played in the league for 18 years, I think he has enough money that he can do whatever he wants and it isn't going to hurt him. He took a 50% pay cut to win a title last year.
I figured all you guys would be happy that he's got a little gamble in him.

[BennyBigNuts]

One of a million athletes losing a measly 40k gambling.
Allen can wipe his ass with 40k.
Good post yisman.
You continue to be the most worthless poster on SBR.
Saloon this garbage and let yis go back to point-whoring and jerking off to every forum that gives away free shit.

Played 5-10 NL one night back in the day with him. He sat with 20k. Whole table was slobbering at him cuz he played poker so bad. He had no clue.
Everyone was picking him off left and right.
I sat n waited for 4 hours and never got in a big hand with him.
My buddy at the table was the only one to lose a substantial hand to him. Got 2 outed on the river when they were already all-in for a 12k pot lol.

He ended up losing that 20k and then dumped 300k in the blackjack pit after.
