possible for ivey, not for you

this is his 4th this year so if he wins a nice 25% rate is not bad, he doesnt care for tournaments because of side games like he used to he said yesterday, does not think there as profitable

This guy is to good, and his tournament results are hard to compare with those of Ungar, in his time there were about 3 people in every $10.000 tournament, no wonder he won a bigger %.

you guys are all overestimating iveys roi, there's no way he wins 30% of the tourneys he enters. he plays very weak-tight. any decent player will be able to run him over easily. everyone has a good string of variance over the course of a ten year period. I'd say that ivey would be lucky to win 20% of every tournament he enters, he probably only wins 15%.

[greg nice]

20% is prob right. i can easily see him winning 1 out of 5 he enters

7 millions in tourny winnings yes, but what about the 70 million in buyins? Hmmm?

Personally I think he is 17 percent at best.

Sure, a normal player of phil ivey's skill only wins 20% of his tournaments. But since he is phil ivey, other plays around him play worse so he gets another 10% in winning value.

You understand at a typical table with phil ivey, 3-4 of the 9 people are just trying to dump their chips to ivey so they can tell their friends they lost to him.

hes not a internet player, he doesnt play every tournament before the main event tourneys , hes played 4 this year already making back his money with this 1 final table
