Jay Z blows a load on poker

It's A Hard Knock Life for rapper and music mogul Jay Z at the moment as he blew a bundle of cash at a poker game last week, MediaTakeOut.com reports.

The former Def Jam boss is said to have lost more than $500,000 in a poker game in Las Vegas.

An onlooker told MediaTakeOut.com: "It was supposed to be a friendly game with everyone betting only [a few hundred dollars] a hand…Jay Z was down only about [a thousand dollars] when he raised [another player] $500,000."

The insider added: "It was a bold move for Jay Z - unfortunately his pair of queens didn't beat [the other player's] flush.

"There were professionals at the table, he really should have known better than that."

Maybe someone should have told Jay-Z to Beware Of The Boys.
