I admire such players for their perseverance, skill and systematic play. Full respect for him, he is a great professional. Congratulations on his victory and his 11th bracelet, it must have been a good day for him He was probably very proud of himself - and that was a good thing. I wish there were more such great players.

it is his hobby, his work, his job, his life for the last decades and his remarkable talent made him to have this special performance in his career. He is still young and he is on the 2nd place in the world of WSOP bracelets where the 1st place is also not too old. I think Phil Ivey is trying to get to 1st place in the bracelets, but Hellmuth is also a huge shark.

It's great that he can combine his passion with his work and earn money thanks to it. He is young, so there are still many successes ahead of him, I hope that one day he will also take first place in his bracelets. Everything indicates that he is pursuing his goal effectively, even though he has great rivals along the way.

He won 35 buy ins with this win , very good , although he plays so many high rollers and expensive games , so maybe this win is peanuts for him . I think the most important from this win for him is the bracelet . With only 100 or little more participants it's easier to win rather than if you have to compete against 500 or 1.000 or more players . The expensive buy ins is also good , loose losers , freeloaders who play like there is no tomorrow ATC are out of competition . If only I could remove such guys from my games also , but then again nano or micro or low stakes are full of them

Yeah yes this guy is a true legend of the game and very well known a long time poker player. He already won millions before that and let's hope he will win even more and more because this is very good for the game.

The higher you play the entries are fewer and the profits are higher, with these games you can win a lot and lose a lot too, Ivey is a great player and has been playing high level poker for several years.

Phil Ivey? Dude's a poker rockstar. Won a whopping eleven WSOP bracelets, the most anyone's ever snagged. Crushes tournaments, holds his own in high-stakes games (once took down $16 million from a billionaire!), and can play any kind of poker you throw at him. Ice cold under pressure, The Terminator" for a reason. There's been some legal stuff with casinos too, but that just adds to his legend.
