Phil Ivey Knowledge Base
Why do most every poker enthusiast have a "crush" on Phil Ivey? Phil Helmuth, no matter how many tirades he goes on, no matter how many times he belittles his opponents, no matter how much he wants to get on TV and make a jackass of himself - he is THE best no limit poker player alive today. You hear his opponents (such as Ivey and Negreanu) talk smack about him because they are jealous because he IS the best. In a mind game, wouldnt you want your opponent to think you have no fear of him? 11 bracelets after the one he won this year and a ton of accomplishments. Check and compare between the profiles for accomplishments between Helmuth abd Ivey and Negreanu on Card Player .com and let me know what you think. why oh why do you still have a man crush on ivey and negreanu - no comparrison here - they suck and hes the best try and match and you cry - you suck if you think different - no comparing him with others at all
Phil Ivey winning his Bracelets? Is there a place on line where I can watch Phil Ivey winning any of the bracelets he has won in the past. I am not sure which year or which event he has won them in, but he is my favorite player. I have tried Poker Tube, but it is not the easiest site to navigate, and YouTube. I would like a direct link to an online video if anyone can help, or a list of the events he has won including the years, so that I can search for them online. Thanks

Tough one here poker lovers, please help? Ok -Lets just Say I have $100,000 in my pocket (for fun) and walk into the Bellagio and am looking for a 2000/4000 cash game. I came to win and I am confident in my abilities. There are three tables open. The one on the left has a seat open - but its right next to Daniel Negreanu and he is stacked. The one on the left - there is a seat open across the table from Phil Ivey. The one in the middle has two seats open and no one I have ever seen or met are sitting there. Where do I sit and why?
Brad Booth is a SCRUB! Did anyone see the "play" he made on Phil Ivey (GSN - High Stakes Poker)? No Limit Cash Games are about making money not about acquiring chips (see tournament strategy) Recap: Yukon holding 2s-4s pushes "ALL-IN" vs. Phi Ivey's Pocket Kings on a 3d-7s-6d FLOP. Obviously Brad was trying to make a "play". Betting 300k to win a 50k pot is just bad poker. He bought in for over a 1 million and was just pushing his stack around. Of course Ivey folded (the good play) Though I respect Brad's game, this was probably the most bone-headed play EVER. People calling this one of the "Best Bluffs" are simply bad poker players. http://www.yukonbrad.com/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1x-GGdHohnI // added details I'm sure you guys have play in lower NO LIMIT games, where some guy sits with an obscene about and just tries to railroad the entire game. Its not poker, its just bored rich guy. //
Best poker player heads up EVENT 4? pick who would win! Johnny Chan VS. Phil Ivey Winner of this match goes to FINAL TABLE!!!! loser of this match plays against Stu Ungar! for FT!!!!!!
How do you play poker with idiots? I just got done playing in a cash game, bought in for around $100 total. I did not feel comfortable playing anyone at the table. I think of myself as a solid player who doesnt play bs cards. I watched a table and a player called 1-8th of his chips with 2-4 suited then called an allin bet to make it like 60 more. Flop had a 4 and 1higher 1 lower with heart draw, they guy only had a pair of 4s and called an allin vs aq hearts. 4th street was a q and it was over. This is BAD POKER. i know that you dont just sit and play the best hands but at a table of 10 in ohio at any charity game its redic. I lost all my money with the best hand preflop 2 times, a k-5 unsuited raised my aq suited and i lost to 555 wtf is that, i dont even bother reraising pre cuz these donkeys call like its nothing. i then lost it all with 99 and a guy had ak, called my 26$ bet into a 34 pot like it was nothing. How can a good poker player win vs DONKEYS, even Phil Ivey would have had trouble winning. peace
Dream poker table? Pick 6 players to play at any poker table and you get front seats. My picks would be: 1. Daniel Negreanu 2. Phil Ivey 3. Tony G 4. Barry Greenstein 5. John Juanda 6. Joseph Hachem I realize Hachem is probably less skilled than the others, but I happen to really really like his style of play. The game would be HORSE. What are your picks? Also, what would the game be?

Why can I not win on Full Tilt poker? I'm not claiming to be Phil Ivey, or even a pro by any standard, but I can not win in the real money games on Fulltilt.com. I flop top pair....they make trips. I flop trips....they river a straight I bluff at a pot....they call with low pair I pre-raise with AK....I get called.....and AK never comes. Ever. I have played poker for almost 30 years. I win a fair amount in live games and am usually am in the top 5 in my weekly poker league. Someone give me some insight. Please!!!!! BTW... I am not a quitter so please don't suggest that unless you feel online poker is not on the up and up. I would quit once I figure out how to win :) Thanks!!!!

You have AK preflop?? Okay you have AK preflop against a super agressive player HU on the button in a 1/2 game. Effective stacks 200. You raise to 7. He raises to 21. You raise it to 65. He goes allin. What would his hand range need to like for you to call profitably? PS: This was taken from a hand that took place in similiar fashion with LarsLuzak and Phil Ivey. Except... it was 500/1000 not 1/2. Phil Ivey showed TT so it was a 100k coin flip. Lars won.. Hey bigslick havent seen you in a while! Sincity is implying a fold. Sincity is saying there are better spots. However as sabes says isnt this +EV to call? This isnt a tourney! Pokercoach says that this hand was played horribly. Its HU against Ivey! Do you just call his 3bet and pray for an ACE or King?
2 pair beats Full House? I was watching poker....Texas Hold'em....and one guy had a full house 10's and 6's I believe and Phil Ivey had a pair of 10's and a Queen and they said in order for him to stay alive he needed a Queen on the river. If a queen did pop up that would only have been 2 pair. Would he have won because the queen was higher?
