Butler cashed in $200,000 in pots during event billed as 'Legends of the Felt'
Winning big is nothing new for Jimmy Butler, who has a successful career so far playing professional basketball.
That success has transitioned to the poker tables. On Saturday, the Miami Heat star took home two pots of winnings worth $200,000.00. He played in a tournament called "Legends Of The Felt" at Hustler Casino Live in Los Angeles. The field included Brazilian soccer star Neymar, who is a close friend of Butler and currently rehabbing from a knee injury, professional streamer Ninja, boxer Ryan Garcia and professional poker player Dan Blizerian.At one point in the tournament Butler and Garcia went all in on a four-way.
Butler seemed to have a war of words with Garcia and did not care for his dialogue or his antics at the table. Garcia was apparently trying to draw attention to himself and Butler was obviously disturbed by it. However, Butler enjoyed the event nonetheless. It was the first public appearance for Garcia, who was suspended from fighting for one year due to a positive drug test for performance enhancing drugs that went public last week. As a result, his majority decision over Devin Haney. was overturned.At the end of the tournament, Garcia gave a shoutout to Haney as a measure to try and secure a rematch.Hustler Casino said the players were part of the "greatest event in poker history.
