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?

You're right. Ivey has figured out a stop loss strategy that makes it -EV to play him. Unexploitable.

If you're being ironic, I don't care.

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

Let me introduce you to a little thing I call math:

5 * $100K > 1 * $400K
