Ray Davis Has Been Busy

Wow, lose track of a guy for half an hour and he goes on a tear. We saw Ray Davis get broken to a table by media row with rack after rack after rack of chips. He said it was more than 300,000; we said "no way".

"Wanna bet?" asked Davis.

Sure, we said. We'll offer $1,000 that you don't have more than 300,000. That gave Davis pause until he counted down every chip and produced a hidden stack of yellow (1,000) chips from the center of his massive stack that were hidden under some black (100) chips. With that stack he does indeed have a shade more than 300,000.
