Ivey told him about it over easter sunday dinner. Ivey offers % if Dn gets it back by pumping out some BS on his blog. Thats my guess. Dn mentions losing a big chunk on the course last year. Wonder just how broke he went on the course.(he certainly quit the big game and golf soon after) [/ QUOTE ] Lawl. |

Re: Daniel parodies the Ivey vs. Vaswani/et. all golf \"hustle\"
Ha! Just now watching the first episode of the Aussie Millions Cash game.
Near the end, Antonius says, "I just want to know who the biggest golf hustler is." Lisandro replies, "Well, we all know who it is now." and looks towards Ivey. Antonius: "O.k., then I want to know who the 2nd biggest in Vegas is." Ivey: "I don't make the top 5, that's for sure." The word spread purty fast in Australia apparently. Ivey then goes on to say, "People always say that don't have a handicap, they've never had one. When I shoot, I always shoot around 90." Erik Lindgren shoots Ivey a smirk. Ivey then says, "I make fair games when it comes down to what I peform to." Or something like that. Juanda then pipes in, "Fair game in your opinion." Ivey: "yeah, in my opinion." Juanda: Laughs. "Let's ask the people who have lost to you." Ivey: "What about the people I've lost to? I mean you act like I never lose. I lose on the golf course all the time..(pause) just haven't lately." Most I've ever heard Ivey talk in one sitting. They then cut to Ivey on the golf course....can definitely see a difference in his swing (e.g. he has one now, but still not pretty). He says they bring ringers from all over to play him. Fyi, he double-bogeyed the first hole. |

Re: Daniel parodies the Ivey vs. Vaswani/et. all golf \"hustle\"
Haven't watched the episode yet, but in the previews for ep. #2 of Aussie Millions Cash, it looks like some amateur gives Ivey sh*t about it and gets a nice little, "if looks could kill" stare back from Ivey.
Also, regularly shooting 90 isn't crap. It's nothing to go around crowing about, but it's not crap. |
