RadarOnline.com reported that movie star Brad Pitt hosted a very short poker game where he gave his chauffeur, and others, a $25,000 freeroll. If Pitt lost, he would fork over $25,000 to the winner, but if he won, he could make his opponents perform a task of his choosing.

They were playing flips, which involves everyone being dealt two cards and then just running out the flop, turn and river without any betting. There are no chips.

Pitt is currently visiting Park City, Utah for the Sundance Film Festival.

A source reportedly said: "[Pitt] told the other players that if they lost the hand they had to do some outrageous dare, but if he lost, he would pay $25,000 right then and there.” After the hand played out, Pitt “shrugged his shoulders and mucked his hand.”

His driver had the winning cards. It’s not clear how many people played.

It is believed that Pitt didn’t even bother seeing if he had won, the source added.
