Won back to back tournaments in Monte Carlo, the Monte Carlo Millions and an invitational. Apparently, the invitational was broadcast live on Thanksgiving day.

The man is a bit of a beast.

How long til most of that $1.6M ends up in DD's bank account....

Re: Apparently, Phil Ivey is good at poker - $1.6 million in a week.
 

Also think those are merely the tournaments. Considering how much EVERY poker pro praises his skill, i wouldn't be surprised if he clears more than that on a regular basis. There was a story of how T. Brunson picked up a couple million in 3 days, just think what a rush for phil would be like.

The tournament took place in the high-stakes room at the casino where formal attire is required, and the players complied.

Sounds like a home field advantage for Devilfish.

Thanks. I was feeling like an idiot, running through all the poker pros I could think of. Dirk Diggler is all I could come up with.

Can someone tell Phil that they make earbuds now? Shure and Ultimate Ear make some good ones.

Re: Apparently, Phil Ivey is good at poker - $1.6 million in a week.
 

Those are apparently noise cancelling ear phones. Short of Etymotic, most earbuds don't block out sound. Plus ear buds are uncomfortable.

Pretty sure Bose has some noice-cancelling earbuds now. But I agree, earbuds are tres uncomfortable.

Not that over-the-ear are that much better.

Re: Apparently, Phil Ivey is good at poker - $1.6 million in a week.
 

Earbuds are also sometimes difficult to see and during a tournament he might be getting pestered by fans. Those head phones scream "leave me the [censored] alone."

even without a throng of fans harrassing me, i like the Bose over-the-ear headphones for the high "don't chat my [censored] ear off just because i'm sitting next to you" factor.

Not that it's the ultimate authority, but didnt every respectable MHNL poseter agree that DD is a donk that was running particuarly well at the moment?

Does anyone else think that it's messed up that Ivey's Monte Carlo Millions tourney win doesn't count for the Card Player of the Year race?

Rags, was this because it was an invitational event?

I don't understand why you are questioning him. I did not know this information prior to his post.

Not only do the Shure E5c earbuds block out sound better than the Bose, they are very comfortable once u get the right tips for u (they provide 11 different ones)

I tell you what. That Phil Iverson is a goddamn good poker player. He's got balls as big as an accordian and poker smarts to match.

I havae those headphones and theyre really nice and like 1/3 the price of ultimate ears and not as hard to get in and out. plus, you can turn the headphones off and listen to the outside while people think youre listening to music. Earbuds will always block out sound.

Maybe, but it wouldn't be counted otherwise; I believe the WPT Paris tournament is the only one in Europe that does count.
