Default Phil Ivey - what was going on in Amsterdam

Just listened to the Poker Edge on ESPN and Phil Gordon was talking to all the FT Pros about Annette15 and he asked Phil Ivey what would keep him from playing in WSOPE ME. His exact words were "I found a little town called Amsterdam and didn't want to leave"

Was it a high stakes game that he didn't want to leave or was it the weed?

uh, it's [censored] amsterdam. i'm going to take a wild guess and say it was the weed that made phil stay. and maybe hookers. but probably the weed factored in more.

Unfortunately if our government has it's way, this year will be the last that Phil will be able to play at FT online from Amsterdam as he did this year. They want to ban online except through the government owned "Holland Casino" and to tax winnings with no relief for losses.

London is like 10,000x better for hookers than Amsterdam - in terms of service, attractiveness of girls, and maybe even numbers now too. This is something that's changed in the last five years or so, and is connected with the large influx of people from Eastern Europe. Go to Amsterdam if you want fight your way through the drunks and drug dealers to have a quick, clinical experience with a window girl in her nasty little room which is more like being in hospital than a bedroom. Whereas in London there are thousands of beautiful Eastern European girls, the majority here of their own free will, who you can see for a nice slow screw in private apartments in the best parts of town. The only difference is to find them you have to look on websites, not in shop windows.


(A, er, friend told me all this).
