Poker’s Best Phil Ivey

Phil Ivey is the greatest poker player by far as far as the professional poker players are concerned. However, not all know about him because he’s rarely seen playing in big tournaments.

Phil already acquired 1 win in the WPT events from getting 8 Final Tables. He also managed to get 6 WSOP bracelets. But he has not conquered the realm of Texas Hold ‘Em yet which is the only poker sort which is seen on television.

His repute as the best player in the field of poker comes from his ability to win a lot of cash games, winning him millions each year. However, the tables he was playing at is not an average Tom is familiar with. Phil doesn’t usually place tournament plays as his main priority, he prefer to have cash games all the time.

His familiarity with cash games can be seen on the bracelets he won in the WSOP. He already got 6 bracelets from 6 different poker games. If you want to be an all around player like him then you need to know a lot more about different kind of poker and of course dealt with the best poker opponents like Doyle and Co. This is because there are a number of combination played each night at the WSOP and you’ll never know what the next game would be.

At this high risk game, you need to choose what kind of poker should be played each round. For instance, if Sammy Farha is playing then expect that there would be PLO amongst the mixture of games. All professional and novice players alike has their own game preference and they fought hard just to make sure that their favored game will be on the rotation.

Phil Ivey is also a beast in the 7 Card Stud. He already won 2 PLO bracelets and 2 mixed events bracelets so far. He also acquired a number of H.OR.S.E final table tournaments.

There are no other player who plays well on those games than Ivey. He also played with rather very high stakes. How high can he bet? Last time he played with Texas billionaire, Andy Beal, with $25,000/$50,000 Limit Hold ‘Em poker and he won over $16,000,000 just for three days.

Maybe you’ll consider other players to be the best in the world. But in my opinion, no one beats the legendary Phil Ivey. He only needed to won a Main event and the discussion on who’s the best player will end.
