Phil Ivey, the biggest star in the poker world, seems to be unstoppable at the moment. For many weeks the american poker pro has been running over his opponents at Full Tilt Poker.

Posted by Supererou: WoW.Unbelievable.He's very good at live poker , but also online.Anyway he's not better then Tom Dwan online.
He is. He played 10 times less than Dwan this year online and won 3/4 of what Dwan won. Also, during the isildur period, Tom Dwan nearly went broke when Phil Ivey played successfully against isildur

@Supererou : Isildur1 is the nickname of Viktor Blom, a player that made a huge buzz in the poker communuty, starting to play at the highest stakes of FTP among the pros while noone knew his identity. He first made a huge amount of money against the regs, but then went down a lot.
@Kristan : I didnt mean it as a joke. Maybe I'm wrong but i was nearly sure that Dwan lost huge amounts against Isildur1, whereas Phil Ivey first lost a bit, and then won back some more, even though it wasnt a lot. Im also nearly sure Tom played tons of hands against Dwan while Phil played pretty few hands against him. If I'm wrong, please give me a link with the correct informations

And again Gus Hansen on the losing side. Dont get this guy, losing so much over the last years at HS and still goes on and on. Pretty obvious for everybody to see Gus hasnt got the skills for HS and need to step down 1 level.
Haha not surprising news, we all know he's the best in the world... believe me he'll break a record of all time money won before he die... and it's gonna be a 'difficult' one to beat...
