POKER INFO - PROILE - Phil Ivey

Phil Ivey is the most exciting player. He'll wear a basketball jersey to the tables and just dunk right over you with his nuts!

Phil Ivey is the greatest poker player of all time and he always has the hand to back it up

This clown needs to start representing the NBA again before he loses his bankroll

Unbelievable style of play. This kid has to ice his elbow because he shoves them in the middle so often!

I had the priviledge of getting knocked out of the WSOP 2003 by Phil. I must say that he is one of the hardest players to read. I won a few pots, then read him for two high pair, but when i went all in, he called with TRIPS!! Totally sets up the misread...

what a class act.

[bad_dog76]

[extremekaratekid]

he is a vrry good poker player. i wish he could win at the wpt finale tables he has had a appred 6 times but has not won one yet!!!! but still is great

[undertaker]

He hasnt had a victory at a wpt event because he keeps playing ace q

[HPG ADMIN]

that's just bad luck - it is like people who play 10-2 because brunson won 2 WSOP titles with it.

[?????]

He reminds me of a pool player 30 yrs ago called Delaware Dog"
he would run the first 7 or 8 balls in 9 ball, then drive the 8 or 9 straight into the rail.

Ivey is a dog....and Tiger isn't...Ivey's no Tiger!

[headlessman1964]

guy can play but has the least personality of anyone on circuit,,what a bore,yawn

[ChipsO'Tooles]

Best All-Around player on the planet. Just about every major professional players endorse him.

I just watched Ivey get blown out of the Aussie Millions Invitational by Antonius, all the while Konik and Hopkins raving how he is the GREATEST player of our time. Ivey blows it everytime we see him on TV. Why does everyone set out to prove Ivey is the best when time after time he proves he's not. Cut the Bullshit out about this overrated ATM machine!!!

[HPG ADMIN]

he is a cash game player, not a tournament player. He has stated in magazines that it is better for him to bust out early so he can play the cash games.

[Drew1000]

The Aussie Millions Invitational is structured as a cash game

[HPG ADMIN]

do you mean a limit tournament?

[Drew1000]

The Match I was referring to was the Aussie Millions Invitational a NL Hold'em tournament which is structured as a "Cash Game." ... All money on the table is real Australlian Money. Ivey bet blindly in Antonious with a pair of 2s and lost big time. Also, the time I saw him in the Belagio he was playing the big "cash" game.

[headlessman1964]

You hit the nail on the head,but most folks don't know that Antonius is one bad dude,doesn't get the ink he deserves,Ivey always says he busts out on purpose to play cash games,yea right.

[?????]

We'll see whath is excuse is if he busts out in nov 2009 main event final table...With over $8,000,00 at stake, he can BS all he wants..ther is no cash game to take its place!

mr. question mark man,
Are you really talking bad about Phil Ivey? He already won two bracelets this WSOP, to make a total of 7, and now he is in the final table of the main event with 6k+ runners. Everything you ever post here is extremely negative and nonsensical.

[?????]

He mucked a winning hand, not realizing he had a flush...this guy had his chance, and doesn't have another one coming his way...Mr Moon should have won the thing, but that's the way the cards fall sometimes....he played bign stack poker, just like Raymer, but was unlucky that another player made mistake after mistake, and sh**out three times, and then won the thing....that clown should stick to the internet heads up action, not main events!

Another great post by mr angry question mark man. Yeah, you're right... Moon is way better than Ivey. Ivey isn't even in the same league as Moon. I guess you forgot how Ivey got eliminated? I'm pretty sure your boy Moon called an utg shove with AQ and hit a 3 outer. Who cares about that stupid flush thing where he mucked the winning hand. It was a tiny pot and it wasn't even at the final table

[?????]

Moon's record is superior to Ivey's.Moon has only played in one major live tournament, and finished second to a shit-out artist....that he out played!

LOL are you really trying to argue w/ me by saying Darvin Moon is a better poker player than Phil Ivey? You could line up Darvin himself, all his family, and his 10 best friends, and not one single person would agree w/ you. I'm going to stop commenting on your posts b/c you are obviously making stupid posts just to piss people off. I just wish someone would ban you, you contribute nothing to this place and the majority of your posts are vulgar and offensive.

[?????]

Simple fact....Mr. Moon has played one (1) live major tournament, and finished second to a *&#@-out artist...at this point, his record is superior
to all others.

[?????]

After just watching the final table again on TV, it became apparant that Ivey is not a superior NLH tournament player..his game is based soley on the all-in bet, and using his bank roll(lack of concern about $10,000 buy-in)to put pressure on others who have concern about the money.

To many people pay him too much respect in these tournaments, because they don't have enough heart.

Darvin Moon has at least an equal amount of heart, if not more, and abetter disposition for NLH tournaments!
