Phil Ivey Wins Sixth Bracelet

June 4th, 2009

Phil Ivey wins event 8 No Limit Deuce to Seven Draw in the 2009 World Series of Poker. Obviously, Phil Ivey only played in this event to win the bracelet. Why else would he play in an event where 1st place prize of 96k is less than 1 buy in on Pot limit omaha? Phil Ivey would defeat a field of 147 to take down the bracelet and win his alleged side bets. Phil is alleged to have 10 million riding on winning his sixth bracelet in this years WSOP! Thats $10,000,000.00! If this is true that is sick!

2000 Pot Limit Omaha
2002 Seven Card Stud Hi Low
2002 S.H.O.E
2002 Seven Card Stud
2005 Pot Limit Omaha

and now
2009 No Limit Deuce to Seven Draw

In 2002 he won an amazing 3 bracelets! This is one of the greatest poker accomplishments of all time.

Just John Monnette and Phil would remain of the 147 players. Phil Ivey was playing the visibly shaken tournament grinder and using his trademark stares. John Monnette is won of the more humble players and has almost come to accept he is dead money and his friends often make fun of him for it. Now he would take on the great Phil Ivey in a David Vs Goliath match for the WSOP Bracelet. Just dead money grinder with little self confidence standing between Ivey and $10,096,000. Phil Ivey would take out John Monnette and snatch the Monnette and the bracelet. Full Tilt Poker will be very happy to see their top pro bring a bracelet home. Now he can go count de Monnette, its good to be the King!
