Phil Ivey has been branded as the number one poker contender on the planet by quite a few of the top pros. Phil was born in Riverside, CA and relocated to New Jersey before reaching the age of 1. His papa taught Phil one cent-ante Five-Card Stud poker. From then on on, he was addicted to poker and wished to learn anything he could about poker. He routinely told his elders that he was planning on being a professional poker player. He did not allow the adverse feedback from other people destroy his ambition of becoming one of the strongest poker competitors in the world.
He started playing seriously after getting a fake ID by the name of Jerome. He honed his skills at the poker rooms in Atlantic City. The initial number of years for him were a learning period and coming away with a win wasn’t a common outcome at the time. He made his mark at the 2000 World Series of Poker where he achieved two final tables and came away with his 1st World Series of Poker bracelet, in a $2, five hundred Pot-Limit Omaha match. At the final table he destroyed a number of the better known professionals which includes "Amarillo Slim" Preston, David "Devilfish" Ulliot, and Phil Hellmuth, Jr.
He made a decision to take his skills to the successive level and headed out west to Las Vegas. He continues to compete in in "The Big Game" at the Bellagio with the best players on the planet. Phil credits his achievements to dedication and an eternal love for poker. He says that he’s picking up skills every day and is very abashed about his achievements. Phil admits to making blunders every single session of poker and always aspires to get better.
Despite the fact that Phil has come first in some big tournaments, he prefers destroying cash games on a regular basis.
