Dan Bilzerian Playing Liar's Poker with a Senator

What does Senator Rand Paul have in common with Instagram playboy Dan Bilzerian, the man known as one of the wildest and craziest self-proclaimed poker players in the world? According to the snapchat video that Senator Paul sent out on Friday morning, the two have one thing in common, and that is their shared love of poker (in some of its vvariations, at least).

Senator Paul sent out snapchat video of himself learning how to play poker from the King of Instagram. The Snapchat video which was obtained by Daily Caller, titled Lessons from Dan Bilzerian, lasts ten seconds.

In the 10-second video libertarian lawmaker from Kentucky and professional poker player Bilzerian are playing a game named Liar’s Poker.

Liar’s Poker is an American bar game that combines statistical reasoning and bluffing where players hold US dollars bills with close attention to their own bill serial number. The goal of this highly entertaining game is to bluff your opponents into believing that your bid doesn't exceed the combined sum of all serial numbers.

Liar’s Poker is also title of the book written by Michael Lewis which talks about the author’s experiences as bond salesman on Wall Street.

In the video, Bilzerian and Senator are sitting at the table opposite one another with hundred dollars bills in their hands. Bilzerian, often crowned the King of Instagram by his followers leads a lifestyle of controversy and extravagance because he enjoys in wild parties, weapons and women. Dan often shares pictures of large weapon collections with his fans and most of his pictures on Instagram feature young attractive women and stacks of cash.

However Dan’s lavish lifestyle has led him to numerous problems. He has already suffered double heart attack when he was 25 years old and pulmonary embolism two years ago.

He is also well known as party animal and those parties sometimes get out of control. On December 2014, Dan threw Janice Griffit off the roof of a house into a pool as a part of a photoshoot for Hustler magazine. Unfortunately Janice fell short of the pool, hit the edge and broke her foot. Another party that went out of control was party at Miami Nightclub where Dan kicked model Vanessa Castano in the face during the brawl in August 2014.

It is not the first time that Dan posed with politicians. Back in December he posted photo on Instagram with Congressman Dana Rohrabacher where reflection of poker chip trail looked like two lines of cocaine.
