Phil called Poker a "sport"...

**jjgold** · 06-02-11, 08:38 PM

I heard Ivy is a crook and will do anything to support his gambling addiction

I would not doubt if he is in on the theft

**stevenash** · 06-02-11, 09:03 PM

He was using fake ID's when he was 16 to play cards 2 years underaged at the old Hilton in NJ.

He's a fake, phony, fraud since he was a kid, kind of like Tiger.

The owner of T.I. is kicking the tires, but he is really trying to pry Mirage from MGM. 2 other gaming companies are looking at FT as well, but I'm not sure they want all of the baggage it has right now.

He makes more in the cash games at the Bellagio DURING THE WSOP anyways

yea, he and eli elezra clean up bobby's room. I shot craps with ivy at the bellagio once. guy bought in with 500,000 marker and was making 10k come bets with max odds. they do 3-4-5 on strip, so he was doing 25 thousand come bets bets with max odds and 25 thousand passline with max odds.

**hockey216** · 06-10-11, 01:53 AM

i obviously wasn't betting big. i had like 4grand in front of me and was making like 100 dollar bets with max odds. he was just at some 100$ table. but the dude bought in huge. well its not huge for him cuz hes rich... but you can't bet 500,000 every day or you'll go broke. well, i think he makes so much off full tilt sponsorship that he'll never go broke. him and lederer. make more money off full tilt than off poker.

**Muscles** · 06-10-11, 11:10 AM

Ivey is the man, I've always liked him the most...so collected and mild mannered out there unlike those like Hellmuth.

**count da money** · 06-10-11, 11:50 AM

thats awesome that should tell full tilt something

**bettilimbroke999** · 06-10-11, 11:54 AM

The funny thing is the guys who got scammed by tilt think Ivey gives a **** about them

Full Tilt has made Ivey rich but the richness apparently they OWE to him in the form of a 150 million, now maybe Phil has 20 or 30 million cash on his own but that 150 million (his share of full tilt) is by far the bulk of his assets and that is what he is suing for.

Full Tilt currently owes US players around 300 million and cannot pay so how is a 150 million judgement for Phil Ivey supposed to help get players paid

, if anything that would force the company into bankruptcy and insure no one but Phil Ivey gets paid.

I am sure he is trying to put a positive spin on this so that as he says in the article he can "go out and get some other sponsorship deal" from a site like Pokerstars, if he comes flat out and tell ya hes only worried about himself and could give a **** less if you get paid or not then the whole poker world would turn on him and what site would want to sponsor him

Wicked chops supposedly talked to his manager. Its amazing how much things can change in a few months, full tilt merchandise was ubiquitous all over television just a few months ago and now they are being taken to court by Ivey.

Two plus two is great tonight. I bet Phil had something on tonights game.

Why would you bet he had something on a game?

Bc hes a huge sports gambler having bet over a million on games multiple times and this is the NBA finals, I am sure he had alot of money on all 5 of these games

**Robber** · 06-10-11, 02:00 PM

insignificant . doesnt matter much

**stevenash** · 06-11-11, 02:24 AM

Reason 203 to hate Ivey.
I just saw the conclusion of this weeks Poker after dark.
Heads up, Dwan v. Ivey.
Ivey 6-6, Dwan 8-8, both go all in, Ivey really thought he should have won with 6-6.
I wanted to punch that arrogant look right off his face.
6-6 is good, but it's not all that.

WTF is he still promoting Full Tlit on that show anyway?

Overrated, wins by intimidation, like Helmuth, who is also overrated.

you call the phil's overrated and you have nash as your avatar?? on the topic of overrated, you probably think nash deserved those TWO mvp awards. stockton had at least 5 years of better play and never got one. they make final tables. he couldn't even make the finals.

**kingdom** · 06-11-11, 03:38 AM

nash every post you make proves how much of a 'tard you are. it was huck seed. phil owns dwan on every show i've seen. and genius, the shows are pre-recorded. did you think they were bringing it live to your living room at 3am????

kingdom, you have an attitude problem. Nash is entitled to his opinion.

**Wrigley** · 06-11-11, 05:09 AM

Nice to see Phil step up to the plate

Even if so, I don't see why it's relevant.
