Is Phil Ivey really any good at all?

Seemed like we're doing it with every other pro, so I figured it was Ivey's turn.


Seriously though...these posts are ridiculous. You can't tell enough about a players skill level just from a few select hands that TV shows in order to pass judgment. Go watch him play day after day, and then make your judgment.

"Go watch him play day after day"

And how may I ask do we do that?

You can get some idea of how they play when they write about it, no?

i've watched ivey play 300-600 at the taj a couple of times awhile back. he owned everyone at the table including henigen.

exactly...thats the point. You aren't going to really know how good they are, so these posts are foolish.

You don't need to watch him day after day to tell he's a superb player. Though I agree these posts that have emerged are stupid.
