Default Re: Phil Ivey is the most SUCCESSFUL player in the world? (not best)

Bobby Baldwin and its not close.

Think about it this way- everytime you play craps, 21, or any other game at an MGMMirage casino which include Mandalay, Luxor,MGM Grand, Excalibur, NYNY, Monte Carlo, Bellagio, TI, or Mirage, you are essentially losing money to Bobby Baldwin.

He has managed to get himslef on the very profitable +EV side of table games of the most prestigious gaming company in the world.

game over Bobby wins.

I wouldn't call MGM the most prestigious gaming company in the world (that's probably LVS) and I also think that Baldwin is mostly involved in Bellagio operations. That being said, he is one of the top 5 most successful personalities in poker. I would add Hellmuth, Ivey, Reese, and D. Brunson to the list as well.
