Phil Ivey, a well known professional poker player, is sitting at a poker table. He's wearing a white shirt, jeans, socks with no shoes, and a backwards baseball hat He has earphones in and is intently concentrating on what's going on in the game. That is to say, he's paying zero attention to his feet, where a wad a loose hundreds that I estimate to be worth about $10k is sitting

   Here's a pic of Phil Ivey, playing in a poker tournament where he'd already paid the entry fee (which is to say, he needed no cash for the game itself, except to handle the side bets about what color the flop would be, or whether the turn would be higher or lower than a 7)
