This is what professional poker players with big stacks do when they get bored at the WSOP.....

Erick Lindgren bet Gavin Smith $100,000 that he could play the Bear's Best golf course four times in a day while, walking and carrying his own bag in the Vegas heat and scoring under 100 in each round. When he heard about the bet, Phil Ivey put down another $200,000 against Lindgren, and other pros got in on the action. All told, Lindgren won $340,000 for himself, and more than a few bucks for other bettors who got in while the going was good. You can check out the bet on RawVegas.tv sometime Thursday afternoon.

I get tired after 1 round. I couldn't imagine doing 72 in one day WALKING!!!

The course must have been empty, as I am hard up getting one round completed in 5 hours with all the slow players around.

I bet he could score another 100-200k for an endorsement from the bag manufacturer he was using.. wink.gif
