Default Who is the most famous person you seen play poker at a casino?

I have ran into jerry buss (owner of the lakers) playing johnny chan 400-800 at the bike. Funny thing is this was the day kobe got arrested.

Also Olden Polynice usually plays $10 paigow at the huster (after losing all his money at HP)

i remmeber my brother telling me how zach won with a full house on the river, but the guy had a pretty good hand to, and it was only one bet on the river.

zach said something like "man i knew i shoulda gone for the check-riase"
my brother said something like "nah it's easier that way"

i couldn't believe he never said anyhting about him being in rage. my brother and i listened to that band for so long, i so would've said "you provided me anger for 7 years, thank you."

Congratulations on meeting a famous person. It's fun when you play at the same table and beat them, too.

The Salt Cracka. The once king of OOT.

It's not just a myth. He has played in a raked live game before.

I was too afraid to ask for his autograph. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Brad Garrett (sp?) from Everybody Loves Raymond was on the table beside mine in the WSOP this year. I have also played blackjack with some NHL players like Darian Hatcher.
