Phil Ivey has been referred to as the best poker contender in the world by quite a few of the top-ranked pros. Phil Ivey was born in Riverside, CA and relocated to NJ before reaching turning 1. His grandpa taught him penny-ante Five-Card Stud poker. From that point on, Phil was hooked on poker and wished to learn whatever he could about poker. He routinely told his elders that he wanted to be a professional poker player. He didn’t let the adverse feedback from others destroy his ambition of being one of the greatest poker players in the world.
He started competing seriously after getting a fake ID with the name of Jerome. He sharpened his techniques at the poker rooms in Atlantic City. The first few years for him were a teaching period and coming away with a win wasn’t a common thing at the time. Phil made his mark at the 2000 WSOP when he made two final tables and came away with his 1st World Series of Poker bracelet, in a $2, 500 Pot-Limit Omaha match. At the last table he destroyed quite a few of the well known pros which includes "Amarillo Slim" Preston, David "Devilfish" Ulliot, and Phil Hellmuth, Jr.
Phil decided to take his game to the successive level and moved out west to Vegas. Phil continues to play in "The Big Game" at the Bellagio with the greatest players on the planet. Phil credits his achievements to hard work and an immeasurable passion for poker. He says that he’s picking up skills every single day and is quite abashed about his success. He knows he makes blunders in each game of poker and always aspires to get better.
Despite the fact that Ivey has come first in some big tournaments, he favors winning money games on a regular basis.
