Default Why Phil Helmuth is the Greatest Poker Player in the World

Didn't Phil H. tell Phil Ivey that he was about 45% vs 65% on a hand?

How many people who play poker know that your total percentages should add up to 110%?

I didn't know it and I doubt even David Sklansky does.

Phil Helmuth is a freakin genius..

He added 10% so he can get the right pot odds.

Norman Chad was harping on this too, but I'm pretty sure he wanted Ivey to lay him 65K to his 45K, and wasn't talking about percentages. Though right at the beginning the way he brings it up that sounds like what he's saying.
