Phil Ivey vs. Andy Beal

Eegs · #1 02-23-2006, 02:44 PM

Just read an article on pokernews.com that said Beal had apprently taken the $10 M stake the corporation had initially put up. Now supposedly they are back at it with Phil Ivey playing. After the first day of play Ivey is supposedly up $6 M.

would you really expect any other outcome? i mean he's up against the great ivey.... i wouldn't be surprised if he started refusing to play ivey, same way he refused to play lederer

google Andy Beal and The Corporation. lots of info out there otherwise I'd put a link. in a nutshell he's a billionaire banker and they're a group of the best high stakes players in the world. he battles them heads up in shifts, so to speak. read up on it. very cool stuff.
