Gilbert Arenas Essentially Loses $7Million on a Hand of Poker – Maybe More

Washington Wizards star Gilbert Arenas is drawing blanks after the league flop-slapped him with a season-long suspension following his earlier firearm indiscretions.

Agent Zero is set to lose $7Million in cash after pleading guilty to a felony weapons charge on Jan 15. Arenas was reportedly involved in a $25K argument with Jarvaris Crittendon over a poker debt (ed: I would love to see an NBA plane. I imagine them as a 1970s party). This lead to a Texas-Hold’em-Mexican-standoff, where Crittendon and Arenas waved guns around in a Wizards’ facility. Surprisingly, The Association looks down on team-based gunplay, and I’m sure this falls in line with Stern’s anti thug appearance movement.

Both players are out for the year, and this altercation puts Arenas’ (ridiculous) $111Million contract in jeopardy.

Losses like this on a poker game even make Isildur1′s crazy swings look reasonable.

    no , this is wrong it wasn’t poker as origianly thought but rather a card game called eucher.

    Euchre (pronounced /ˈjuːkər)/) is a trick-taking card game most commonly played with four people in two partnerships with a deck of 24 standard playing cards. It is the game responsible for introducing the Joker card into modern packs; this was invented around 1860 to act as a top trump or best bower (from the German word Bauer, “farmer”, denoting also the Jack[1]). It is believed to be closely related to the French game Écarté that was popularized in the United States by the Pennsylvania Dutch,[2] and to the seventeenth-century game of bad repute Loo. It may be sometimes referred as “Knock Euchre” to distinguish it from Bid Euchre.

    it was actually euchhre but still not using good judgment jepordizing 111 million contract
