    where did all the high roller vegas pro gamblers get all their money?
    doyle brunson,phil ivey etc where did all their money come from? i understand they've won alot in side games playing poker and wsop tournament winnings but ive heard around that ivey is worth over 100 million and i seen a video where he lost 1 million playin craps and just walked out of the room like it was nothing. im thinking most of these guys must have had their whole net worth on a bet or on a poker table many times to get to where they are not. am i missing something? i envy the rich badly.

            The top dogs like that is all sponsors, but I'm with Slick, I'd question the $100M. Could be close, but only the top 10 or so I would think.
