latest phil ivey rumours
just read a article that came out yesterday that if phil wins the main event he will exceed at least 20 million up to a reported 33 million dollars, this includes the 8.5 million for winning, the 10 million bonus from full tilt, and 2 confirmed prop bets from durr and andy bloch plus any other bonuses and sponsership deals.

This will be one hell of a fun thing to watch.
What the blinds at when they restart?
The ante is now the original starting stack!
Phil has 9765000 in chips and has an M of 25.
He'll be fine
Actually his M is 15.5
CPR is 360K plus 9 x 30K = 630K divide his total of 9,765,000 by that and you get 15.5.. Not critical, but he hasn't a lot of room to move.
oops....my bad.
Explains a thing or two about my game doesn't it?
I still think he's taking it down!
The REALLY sick part is that Ivey immediately turned around and sold a piece of the bet to Gus Hansen, covering the initial bets and allowing him to FREEROLL for a million bucks....
You watch the Final Table already?
Jah knows the future......;)
Anyone interested in a prop bet for the number of times Norman Chad kisses Ivey's ass with comments...
lol:)
About as many times Scotty Nguyen says "baby" in a single day.
Also known as the Law of Big Numbers . . .
This is the reason Phil Ivey is as financially set as he is.
He's a great player but he's always finding and exploiting edges in his day to day life too.
Finding ways to give people prices that favour him on insurance, figuring out how to freeroll prop bets.
He's his own casino, he ALWAYS has a house edge. The best part is it's not like you make a bet with Ivey and you don't feel you have the best of it, you individually feel like you have an edge, it's the combined actions of all his bets covering each other that give him the opportunity to make so much free and clear.
