Default Re: How Phil Ivey Acquires Chips

Oh, I get it, in every tournament, Phil Ivey shows up late and the first hand he sits down with is KK. OK.

I wasn't saying the other guy's play wasn't bad, I'm just saying that we all know Ivey either busts early, or tries to accumulate chips.

He's not accumulating very many chips with a bluff here.

Yeah, like 150 chips and then you fold to his reraise.

So you instamuck to a reraise with AK? You must have some tell on Phil Ivey that he isn't reraising with less than KK/AA, amazing. I understand it's the first hand for Ivey, but he could still have TT-QQ, on the flop it looks like a fold to me, but c'mon, you're not folding preflop here.

It sounds like you're bragging. Snaps for making it to Aruba to play poker... but don't let your head blow up. Underaged college kids go to Aruba for spring break. And they don't need to get knocked out a huge tourny to enjoy it or pay a hooker for a bj on the beach.

If you put your opponent on TT-QQ you should probably consider folding pf when the stacks are deep. reverse implied odds, man.

That was in no way my intention. I simply meant it eased the pain. I promise, I do not consider winning a seat in the Ultimate Bet Aruba tournament some sort of huge big bragging right. I only meant it was as nice a place as I could find to get busted out of a tournament.

You need to have a beer, relax a little bit.
