I won't even explain how bad a bet that is, even though Ivey's just a plain beast.

This is for 1st place, right? As good as Phil Ivey is, he has a history of chip dumping, plus, from all accounts, there's too much luck in poker to be 770-1 to win, and if you've played some MTT's, you would have figured that out.

Question:

Are you saying Ivey intentionally chip dumps to an other player or player(s) as part of some pre-arranged agreement? (ie- dumping to other Full Tilters?)

Cheers,

even though they gave those guys horrible odds, they're gonna be so screwed if they have to actually pay people who bet on these big names.

They will make so much money on the people who bet on Dan N, Howard L., Fossilman, etc. etc. etc. etc. that they can afford to pay off those who bet on Ivey.
