I mean you called a raise with King Jack and thought it was good against Phil?That's okay, just keep calling with King Jack and then call off your whole stack when I show you the nutz!

serge 904 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Final Table for Ivey...Record 9th WPT final table I believe.. Link to post Share on other sites
nutzbuster 7 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I had a short conversation recently with Mike Matusow's brother Scott about whether or not he agrees that Ivey is the best.He laughed and said no way...the best is who ever of the top guys is winning the most at any given time and that Ivey has a ton of tells, etc. I agree to a point with some of that, but common dude...Ivey has been crushed consistently for years now. I just laughed and agreed with him. Scott is a nice guy and all but clearly is way off on this issue.This just seals the deal even more for Ivey imo. I wonder if he also had some sick ass prop bets about getting this far in this? Would anyone take him up on a prop bet at this point? Link to post Share on other sites
KingJames 11 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 nbd, but Mr. Ivey is the chip leader with 4 left. He started the day with 30bbs and 5/6. The chip stacks are all very close right nowIvey tho Link to post Share on other sites
Canary3 1 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Ivey just continues to leave no doubt who the best player in the world is. So sick. Link to post Share on other sites

I watched his radio show a couple times when the 08 elections were happening and he refused to watch anything but Fox News and was saying how it's a travesty that we have a black president, etc. Also funny when he would play poker when it came to his analysis of hands.

He comes across a tad mentally challenged on many issues.The point was more that I'd have thought a guy like Scott, with access to the real inside game, would be more inclined to agree that Ivey is arguably the best and has been for quite a while now.
