Re: Phil Ivey vs. Jman 300/600
[ QUOTE ]
In particular, his stop-loss strategy and tendency to buy in short means you're VERY unlikely to take him for a big score. He quits as soon as he starts to lose. So why does anyone play him? [/ QUOTE ] You're right. Ivey has figured out a stop loss strategy that makes it -EV to play him. Unexploitable. |

The guy quits when he's down at most 100k , what you going to do? Your losses will be bigger than your wins. |

There's no other benefit to them EV-wise. Yes, I think I'm +EV vs. Ivey. |

Re: Phil Ivey vs. Jman 300/600
I'm sure Jman thinks he's +EV against Ivey because of the stakes, 300/600 doesn't bother Ivey that much and it often reflects in his play. If they played in another setting and higher stakes I think Jman would be more humble about his EV. Nevertheless I'm not saying he would be -EV.

Seems he often quits when he loses a buy-in to an outdraw, to preclude the possibility of tilt before it happens. In comparison to Benyamine and Gus he doesn't play super-long sessions, though he will stay for the kill when he's winning big. And he always buys in short, quits when down a few, so doesn't risk much of his own money. He seems in every way the nightmare opponent. |
