Ivey had $2M on a Lakers/Utah game and Bellagio flew him out and got him front court. Lakers won, didn't cover, but produced the greatest image in sportsbetting history.

Might be the best picture EVER.

Yes, Ivey placed a 2 million + bet last year on Indy/NO. Billy Walters said he bet 3 mil last year as well.

one of the initial stories was that ivey was a beard for walters and placed a million dollar bet on the colts in last years super bowl, then on 60 minutes walters says he bet the saints, so who knows....

most casinos will allow larger than normal bets for their premium players on major sporting events. someone like phil who has millions in the bank and 7 figure credit lines at every casino can play what he wants. he's not a bad capper in sports. had a a 6 figure bet on the white guy who beat tyson in his last fight. white guy was a huge dog.
