Well thats poker man ups and downs all the time. I think it'd be crazy to have someone winning ALL the time. That's what I love about poker..even the dominant players aren't winning ALL the time.

phil ivey

Ahh, the rise and fall of the elite. More like ebb and flow, really. Swings, variance, affect all of us, including the top players. Until Ivey walks away from poker, or starts begging for bankroll on the subway, I'll not lose much sleep over his recent downward swing...

Hes just not the same player he used to be.

So with Ivey's recent casino trials, when he has to admit to use some wrong cards to his advantage.
Do you think he used some similar ways to get advantage in live tournaments?
Because so far his success remains only in live, while online he goes down and down.

Up a ferrari down a ferrari who's counting? :D Phil Ivey is a boss I'm sure he's still up over 20 million lifetime in poker If I had to guess.

there is a reason why his peers say he is the best and that is the measuring stick for any sport

Yes, Phil Ivey in the red in online poker, but I do not think that this is something very concerned about it. He's a great player and a cash game, he wins more))

That's pretty standard swing at such stakes. He's gonna get back in the saddle soon I guess.

I'd guess he is a dog in the games these days but I'd also imagine he is winning a ton in live poker too which out weighs the online games, Besides which he is worth a reported $100million, likely has many many investments and being down 6 million since the FTP relaunch really won't have him batting an eye lid.

The only way you can tell a winner over a looser is lifetime achievements :) I would agree, over a lifetime, Phil is a winner...
