At the Bodog Life party at the Palms in Las Vegas last Friday night, Survivor: China‘s Jean-Robert Bellande took on Charles Barkley in a game of HORSE. Except Sir Charles didn’t make much of a game of it. Unless the point of HORSE was to miss the rim…and backboard…by as much as you possibly can.
While Barkley was no Reggie Miller in his prime, he wasn’t Ollie from Hoosiers chucking up granny balls either.
Whether or not Barkley can own Bellande in the poker version of H.O.R.S.E. remains to be seen, but given Chuck’s rep around town, Jean-Robert probably doesn’t have much to worry about.

Charles Barkley, who once estimated his gambling losses to be over $10 million, is being sued by the Wynn Las Vegas over $400,000 in unpaid gambling markers the casino issued to him in 2007.
The Las Vegas Sun is reporting that the occasional poker player and apparently piss-poor black jack-er is also being investigated by the Clark County district attorney’s bad check unit, which has the authority to investigate gambling debts in the same manner as bad checks. In the state of Nevada, failure to make good on markers can result in felony charges.
According to the lawsuit, which was filed by the Wynn yesterday (see court documents here), Barkley refused “to pay the amount despite repeated attempts.”
More on the story here.
