D’Wade went on to tell about his most memorable gambling story on a team plane. This dates back to when LeBron James and Wade were bringing up the Miami Heat together. It was the one with Mario Chalmers. “We played this game called Booray. You can put a ghost in the game and the ghost fades the pot.  And Mario Chalmers was winning,” Wade added, “LeBron was the ghost and the last hand he flipped over beat Mario Chalmers and I think he was out like 50K or something like that.”

Wow! Can you imagine LeBron just taking over the game here as well! This is just too much for the opponents. Moreover, Lebron won $50k just on board. This is too hilarious to even think about.
