Ivey
"Keaton always said, 'I don't believe in God, but I'm afraid of him.' Well I believe in God, and the only thing that scares me is ... Phil Ivey."
Step 1: Make massive multi-million dollar prop bets you will win a bracelet Step 2: Win one, then, for good measure, win another Step 3: Strike fear into the rest of the field of the Main Event by storming into the second place with nearly 15m chips and counting. Unbelievable run.

That's only a $2 million payday. That's nothing compared to what he made on that first bracelet.
Seriously, the guy is the sickest poker player ever. I hear that he was scheduled to be at a featured table a few days ago and threw a fit about it (not sure why), so they actually traded out the table for another one. Everyone at his table was pissed, since that cost them $5k each of endorsement crap, etc.... so he of course gave them each $5k and told them he would give them each another $50k if he won the Main Event. Or so I heard. Would love confirmation on that one. |

I wonder who they are going to talk a lot about over the next few months.
What's the over/under on a "He's the Tiger Woods of Poker" storyline? ------------ Who is Darvin Moon and is he bad enough to lose $60m chips?

No kidding
For a good chunk of last night, he was in 10th place. I can imagine if it ended up that way, Harrah's/ESPN deciding that come November, a 10-handed final table would just the kind of innovation the WSOP needs.

I suspect Full Tilt Execs are probably pretty happy too. Think they will give him the $10 million bonus if he wins it? ha....
