Chat Monitor (Support): benz1987 has lost their chat privilege for 5 hours. Spamming the table is prohibited.
2-7MakesMeRaise (Observer): is it or not?
XxJoIveyxX (Observer): DONT SEND THE MONEY
A Random Noob (Observer): if it would be phil it would in red....
g3ttingyourmoni (Observer): its a fraud
APFDFK (Observer): wtf is with durr just checking down 2 pair like that

I didnt send the money because I thought it was dodgy ! Do you think it was realy Phil saying that? Drunk now?

btw Phils name was written perfectly but not in red ! Does it come up red in the chat box?

I thought Phil Ivey owned a fair amount of Fulltilt! So speaking not in Red maybe not an issue....

wauw, that benz guy got some real skill being able to impersonate that many people, pros will always be in red no matter if their observers, and when ever you click on the chat box what ever gets highlighted its what 1 person wrote. so don't fall for that.

I would have sent it lol

You're basically getting 240:1 odds on a bet that its him, even though I highly doubt it was him and I'd probably just waste the 5 bucks those are hard odds to pass up!!

Then again the more I think about it the less likely I would do it. Was the benz1987 guy spamming the table asking for handouts? And this was just now? Why is Phil so drunk so early in the morning? Unless he's in like China for some reason this seems like an odd time for him to be hammered. And the grammar even in a chat box seems pretty uncharacteristic of him, even if he was drunk... Yeah I'd have to pass

Pretty sure this was a question that did not have to be asked. I have played for a while now and have never seen Phil at a table at full tilt. I like to watch the pros play at the cash tables and the tourneys and have never seen him there. Has anyone seen Phil at a table on FT? For reals, now.

That's not Phil Ivey so if you see him chatting he'll be in red thought you knew that already so it's just some dude who wishes he was Phil Ivey lmao

What are you talking about? Phil plays at FT all the time, he even has his own HU tables.

THAT is defiantly NOT phil Ivey i agree with dennis, Plus do u think that he would send some random person he doesnt even know 5 or 10 $?.. Its a fraud, drunk or not i dont see him EVER doing something like that.. I could be wrong, but if it was him then his name and chat would be in RED WAS his chat in red at all?

Thanks

I will give you some advice. If someone writes like that its always a fraud.
One way to tell is that the chat change backround colour for every message, blue/white/blue/white.
But even if it doesnt its still always a fraud. You would have better odds getting 1.2k back, giving 5 or 10 to the man in the street.

Def not Phil. Hes not known for giving out free money. Especially to someone he doesnt even know. If anything, Phil wouldve shipped $5 to that guy himself instead of asking someone else to do it then ship that person money. The whole thing doesnt make sense, just another case of late night railbirds looking for hand outs which they'll blow within 5 mins.

he has to be red,those rail birds often do it,they write stuff like freerollwhore(observer): i like pie!! make spaces till new line.. ...... ......... ........ .....
then write Phil Ivey: and a message they want him to a say...as u can see mortanus or wateva is phil ivey here...

This is why i always turn observer chat off. Those dumb nerds post a whole bunch of stupid shit....

So True, lol...

But then again don't we all wish we were like Phil Ivey???

Wow, very interesting to know. I always turn the chat off but still always good to know. Thanks.

I was about say, "wtf?"... thought it was a stab at me at first for some reason, lol. Then I actually read the whole original post.

yeah does look like ur nik ,but i wouldnt target u

i mean who would fall for this shit
Phil Ivey (Observer)k the guy who sends first 5 or 10 buxx hmmm to benz1987 will get the cash i promise (1200$$)
only people like this
dunny87 (Observer): i sent it
either the mort guy has 2 accounts and benz1987 is another account,wich he can get banned for or him and a friend scamming people

*corrected for less confusion

It says right there that the guy "Phil" want's you to send money, benz1987, has been blocked from chat for 5 hours because of spamming, did you think this just a coincidence?

so that benz guy changed his nickname to phil ivey??? and got caught by monitor?

I don't think I have ever seen Phil Ivey use the chat feature.

no benz and mart are the same persone multi accounting and do NOT change theyr name to Phil Ivey ,they just write his name in chat and what they want him to say...

That guy is always railing the pro tables, not sure why FT lets him get away with using Phil Ivey's name. He should be banned. Check out the pro games sometimes, I guarantee you will see him there annoying the other railbirds.

There are screenshots getting around of him talking to other high-stakes players at the table, discussing action in Bobby's Room, etc.

Not of him chatting to railbirds though.

And what Tonky said is almost certainly the explanation for this.

I've never even seen any pro use the chat box to reply to observers.. epsecially not as an observer themselves...

Whilst I was watching for about an hour, this chap(phil ivey) was taking money off a few people. As people logged on to look at durrrr he would come up and say things 'you boys ready for a whooping' .

He took 1 guys money and the guy wrote back in the chatbox 'hey phil I didnt receive that money' to which phil ivey replied 'lick my balls' .

To be honest it was a good scam and the guy was making me laugh, although its fraud it was funny how people was thinking they was talking to the real phil ivey.

Thinking Phil Ivey wasted in front of his PC giving away money to random people is a HILLARIUS picture in my mind!!! LOL!!

yeah,someones gonna have to report him if nobody already did they always do it,i know one player who rails those games and thats jas11!he even played a 250 playchip sng with them and i registered for fun hahaha...
but yea they also like saying durrrr(observer):im a fag etc etc but durrrr is also red now...what comes around goes around

One of the railers has a nic that is Phil lvey (but is spelled Phil Livey but with a small 'L').
You can also just put in enough spaces so that your comment will appear on the next line in the chat.

martonas isn't an observer, he's one of the nose bleed regs.

You gotta lol. The best scams always work because of peoples inherent greed.

yea i have searched him up and seems like his dissing ivey or something because he is a come and go large stakes player!!

True this is what ft said:

For privacy reasons, we're unable to provide specific information about other players' accounts. However, we assure you we have dealt with the issue as necessary.

yeah,prob banned his chat for 2 minutes !!

I have watched Phil play a lot on the Ivey death match or whatever its called on full tilt and he doesnt even talk lol.. Is it just me that sees this or have others noticed that he doesnt talk ??.. I think if I was pro I would prob not talk as well because most people are just there to bum money off of you lol
