No-Limit Texas Holdem Poker- Who is Phil Ivey?
Phil Ivey has been labeled as the greatest poker player on the globe by quite a few of the top professionals. Phil Ivey was born in Riverside, CA and moved to Jersey before his first birthday. His grandpa taught Phil penny-ante Five-Card Stud poker. From that point on, he was hooked on poker and wanted to learn everything he possibly could about poker. Phil routinely would tell his parents that he wanted to be a professional poker player. Phil did not permit the adverse feedback from other people annihilate his ambition of being one of the best poker players in the world.
Phil began competing intently after getting a fake ID with the name of Jerome. He honed his techniques at the casinos in Atlantic City. The beginning number of years for him were a teaching opportunity and winning wasn’t a normal outcome at the time. Phil made his mark at the 2000 World Series of Poker where he made 2 final tables and won his 1st World Series of Poker bracelet, in a $2, 500 Pot-Limit Omaha game. At the closing table he destroyed many of the well known professionals which includes "Amarillo Slim" Preston, David "Devilfish" Ulliot, and Phil Hellmuth, Jr.
Phil made a decision to take his game to the next level and headed out west to Sin City. He continues to play in "The Big Game" at the Bellagio with the best players in the world. Phil credits his achievements to hard work and an immeasurable love for poker. He states that he is picking up skills every day and is quite abashed about his accomplishments. Phil admits to making blunders every single session of poker and always aspires to improve.
Despite the fact that Ivey has come first in some large tournaments, he favors destroying money games on a regular basis.
