I am attempting to help a good friend of mines that used to be married to Phil Ivey find a reputable and strong PR firm to represent her as she is wanting to write a "tell all" book. She had been with him since she was 17 years old until 2009.
We are wanting to find someone to represent her and find all opportunities that are available as there is a lot of momentum due to Phil Ivey being the biggest poker player in the world.
I'm sure you are aware of all the public news surrounding the Poker, Fulltilt and Phil Ivey currently. Luciaetta Ivey has never been in the media and we would like to explore opportunities with your firm as well if you find interest.
Please contact me per the info below as we look forward to hearing from you!"
