Raymer Spinning Yarns
After folding a hand in the No-Limit Hold'em round, Greg Raymer continued telling a story. "So this was like a $5,000 charity combination hold'em and stud event in Los Angeles, I think it was the Bike. And people keep coming over and saying that with the average stack at 50,000 Barry Greenstein has like 300,000, and then he has 400,000.
"But all the while, he and Phil Ivey, who wasn't playing in the event, are playing props. It's this complicated version where Barry has the threes, sevens, and jacks, and Ivey has the fours, eights, and queens or whatever, and if one of their cards hits, the other pays $5,000, and if two of them hit it's $15,000 or something like that.
"And so it keeps going on, people coming over and saying, 'Barry's up to 500,000 in chips, but he's down $100,000 or $250,000 to Ivey.' And it's like Barry could win this tournament and not make a dime. I got knocked out, so I don't know if Barry won or not, but I'll never forget that story. If he won, it must be the unhappiest winner photo of all time."
