re: Poker & Phil Ivey the best poker player in history?
You wouldn't be wrong in saying Phil Ivey is the best poker player alive, as he plays all the games and his WSOP track record as well as other major tournament series, as well as high stakes cash games demonstrate his ability.
Many will say Chip Reese, when he was alive, was perhaps the best player too. He played high stakes against the best, stood the test of time, and is revered by many as the best.
There's so many great players, there may be no real correct answer, but these are two that come to mind for me at least.
