The Phil Ivey Challenge??

[ebarnet]

Also, i would bet up to 50k on personally accomplishing this if someone would like to give me odds.

edit: actually, idk exactly what i would bet(50k would seem small if i'm going to win 1M from playing anyway)- i'd like to hear some offers. Even if you wouldn't personally make the bet, what kind of bet would be in order for this? Something like 2% of my year's winnings: 100k.

I may be willing to take this action. There are a number of aspects that I would want to discuss, most importantly, what type of price are you looking for?

Also, I play in a home game with a window attendant at a local sportsbook. He says that Ivey loses a ridiculous amount of money betting sports...Numbers that are no way sustainable and will bust him.

This is not a Phil is busto thread, more of a question as to whether anyone else has heard anything of the sort. There are times where I have been told what he was betting prior to them going off and I just shook my head.

Ivey bet 100k on Floyd Mayweather v De La Hoya and moved the line. Also, I think he was willing to play a 10 million dollar buyin cash game. He has has more than 10 mill. When the corporation won all that money from andy beal, he had at least 1/9 of the action.

I had the douche bag who works the register at the cigar shop in cesars (NOT casa de fuente) tell me that Ivey, Antoine Walker and Rene Angelil were the only ones who had bought one of their $400 1938 Cubans. Then he told me how Ivey was about to be in big tax trouble, as were all the internet gamblers.

First of all, WTF @ talking like that about a guy who bought one of your [censored] $400/stick cigars, and LOL if you think I give any credence to your rumors. Douche baggggggggg.


And to the OP who posted about sports betting; Ivey probably bets sports with other people to avoid the vig. If he's betting sports with a book I'd bet that a fair % of the time it's b/c he doesn't want action that he took, hedging, got a better line, etc.


And FTR I'd be shocked if his NW was <25M.
