Why would this post be deleted and the one about Ng be okay?

[daryn]

i'm pretty sure it was deleted because stuball was thought to be an incarnation of a previously banned poster.

I can just imagine Chris Berman calling a poker game, it might go something like this...

"Phil the Hellmouth is first to speak. He is raised by Scotty I-really-wanna-nguyen. TJ I-dont-know-what-youve-got-but-I-have-a-good-Cloutier quickly folds. Jennifer Please-dont-squeeze-the-Charman is thinking about it. No, she folds the hand as easily as if it were two-ply..."

[WTF]

Phil Ivey
H. Lederer >-- "The Three zzzzzzzz's of Poker"
Eric Seidel

[krazyace5]

Since some people have a problem with Phil Ivey being called the Tiger Woods of poker we will now refer to him as the Michael Jordan of poker. We hope this will clear things up.

[brassnuts]

I'm not sure hes up MJ status just yet. How about the Steve McNair of poker?

[jdl22]

If he's going to be the Steve McNair of poker that would mean that he's part of a greater trend of black poker players that are the equivalent of being much more mobile and can beat you two ways, with their feet or arm. Guess that's semibluffing? Granted this new style can be attributed to Steve Young but one thing Ivey isn't is the Steve Young of poker.

Just waiting for a drugged up Limbaugh to say that Phil Ivey isn't that good it's just the liberal media wanting a black poker player to finally succeed.

Mat Sklansky -- "the Dale Berra of poker"

[Gamblor]

The "21" after sundevil is further grounds for suspicion.

How many names does this retard have?

[Gamblor]

Kinli lighten up man it was hilarious.

She's a butter face from where I'm standing, but to each his own.

[Gamblor]

Ivey is the Sammy Davis Jr. of Poker.

[jdl22]

Not sure what that is based on. This thread was started because Phil Ivey is compared to Tiger Woods each and every time he's mentioned on tv. Many (myself included) think he is only compared this way because he is black. I was merely trying to contrast that with discussion of black quarterbacks that has gone on recently. Not sure what part of that was racist or necessitated your response.
