    I was at Red Rock at around 11pm on July 4th about to play some craps. I walk up to a table and start to play. Then about 10 minutes after Phil Ivey, Irv Gotti and about 8 Big black dudes come up to the table behind me. Ivey gets a rack of orange chips (5K) each on a marker. All of the other dudes just start pulling about stacks of 10K and drop about 50K each on the table.

    They start to throw and are so loud it is hilarious. People are staring at them all over the casino. One of Iveys boys puts $500 on yo and starts yelling I need a new Ferrari. Ivey then proceeds to throw the 11 and dude goes nuts. The whole time Ivey does not even smile. It seems like he is betting so little that he is not enjoying himself at all. I wish I had TMM syndrome like he does where 20K a roll makes you unhappy.

    Also whenever Ivey threw the dice he literally threw them 15-20 feet in the air. It was like he was trying to hit the ceiling with the dice. Every other throw went off the table. Literally 20 feet in the air. I also got this picture with phone. Also who gets a chair at the craps table?

    I've seen Ivey play a few times. the majority of the time he has some other black guy shooting for him while he just makes all the bets. never picks up any money, just keeps saying press it, etc etc. true degen gambler but its so fun to watch

    I rolled myself a hard 8 with $100 on it once. True story.

    Also, I posted this because I did it with Ivey at my table at Bellagio late one night after a long poker session. He said "nice hit" to me, probably beause he had a max bet on all the hard ways.

    Dice are supposed to be eye level.. I seen morons do all kinds of stupid shit from throwing the dice a hundred miles and hour to trying to knock over peoples bets or my working stacks to people who take a a full minute just to throw the dice.. Jesus some craps players are absolute toolsheds.. Heres the dice throw them. Simple Hit the back wall keep them on the table.. How fucking hard is this.. Like children I tell you.

    Edit. Since ivey is spending a mil Note he can pretty much do whatever da fack he pleases.

    To quote Tony Yayo:

    "Irv you ain't Suge Knight, you should shook night
    I put my knife in ya wind pipe and freeze ya on the turnpike
    You know and I know who took ya chain
    You got robbed two times so ya ass is laid
    I'm down to die for this shit all I need is bail
    You betta stick to tha movies with Steven Seigel, bitch "
