The Pressure's on For Pique as Neymar Has Him Covered
Level 7
: 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Gerard Pique sits just three tables away from his friend and teammate Neymar Jr., and the two have been checking up on each other constantly.
After writing up a hand with Neymar, Pique looked over at your reporter on the scene indicating he wanted to know what happened.
"He has about 190,000," yours truly said.
"Oh, I have 160,000," Piqué said, "But I have to beat him."
After a short pause Piqué laughed, "If not, in the dressing room I'll be dead."
Piqué has much more experience on the poker felt, and he even played in the World Series of Poker Main Event this year, and losing to Neymar today will for sure make for some great banter in the Barcelona F.C. dressing room.
