Custom Poker Tables Profile: Phil Ivey

Phil Ivey is a simple man with a master plan. His home office is all about business; that my friends is poker.

– 5 WSOP Bracelets Before His 30th Birthday
– 1 WPT Championship
– $10 Million in Career Tournament Earnings

“Phil won his first World Series of Poker title at the age of 23 when he beat Phil Hellmuth and Amarillo Slim in the Pot-Limit Omaha event. Two years later in 2002, he won three more WSOP titles. Phil also won two Bellagio tournaments, one World Poker Open tournament, two Commerce tournaments, and has made his share of World Poker Tour final tables.”

Who has the better poker face? Custom poker tables leans a little bit towards Lady Gaga, but Ivey has cash to show for his! Is it just me, or does Phil Ivey have a similar intense competitive stare of #1 Tiger Woods?

In February 2008, Phil won his first-ever WPT Championship, taking down the title at the Los Angeles Poker Classic. It was Phil’s record-setting eighth appearance at a WPT final table, and the victory moved him into the top 10 on the all-time tournament money list. –www.philivey.com
