Can Phil Ivey keep his poker face after the book is published? I guess it will be a lot harder: each time he looks at an oponent that is starting to laugh just because of being playing against Ivey, he will be compromising his reading of the hand and will sure start loosing some grip and skill.

I dont get what she is trying to do, actually a I do, hurt PI, the book wont make much $, and im fairly sure she is set up quite nice, As I remember she did the dirty on him, so whats all this about, revenge because he droped her skank ass. Wounder if she will include all the stories of how he gave to charity, how amazing he is at poker...etc, I hope it back fires on here, want to write a book then do it about yoursel stop trying to get $ of someone elses name...pigeon.

Not sure how many money she get after their divorce but it seems it needs more, thats why she wants to write down this book. Of course that she really will make this step and write down this book, there will be plenty of poker fans that will buy it and read it since always this type of publications tend to draw a lot of attention, plus i'm sure she will embed some flash statements in order to generate sales In general we know some expenses Phil Ivey made over the years, i mean he has houses in California and Las Vegas and of course some really expensive cars, a Mercedes McLaren AMG and a Bugatti Veyron, so there won't be too much surprises here. Oh, and he also eat a piece of chicken worth of 1 million dollars (Tom durrrr Dwan side bet).

My wife is about to write a tell all book too, even though we are still happily married. It will be titled MAHDROF : How to domesticate a man. Full of amusing anecdotes like the time I stepped onto a poop diaper in my sock feet, went to the supermarket and bought salmon pot pie instead of chicken pot pie, etc. Guaranteed #1 on the best seller list (for insomniacs)!
pour Phil Ivey.
