Super aggro players?
Have you watched any of the wsop final tables this year? Players are so intent on laddering-up that the only way they could be any tighter is to not deal the cards.

Lolwhat?
Ya, a guy who plays a ton of HU poker online can't stand to play aggressive players in FR NLH tourneys?
Why on earth would someone who probably never plays lower than 300/600 live be interested in grinding a 1500 with a bunch of shove monkey MTT players who wear hoodies and sunglasses?
Get real....guys a beast and only can motivate himself to even play most of the smaller events with HUGE bracelet bets. He doesn't have any this yr bc of being stuck in Macau, so he won't waste time.
You're hilariously off base.

Lot of good players who skip the WSOP. I am sure he makes more money playing high stakes games. Playing the series puts a camera in his face all month. Perhaps he is tired of the spotlight with all the other stories going on about him.

He discovered a defect in one of the decks print, it called edge sorting. Only certain casinos used the deck.
"The cards are supposed to cut off the pattern so that each edge of the card is identical to its opposite. However, these cards, manufactured by Gemaco, featured a defect that meant if you turned some cards around, and left the others the way they were originally, never shuffling them so that the edges were all mixed up, you could identify flipped cards from non-flipped. This is possible because in casinos, you're generally dealing with pre-shuffled decks, and if a shuffling machine is used, the vertical orientation of the cards will never change. And so, Ivey and his partner asked that the "good" cards for baccarat be flipped."
He would initially lose a couple hundred thousand then request the certain decks. Calling it superstition. Then because he had given so much to the casino and was going to play a million more he would ask for certain small changes and they would oblige to get his business. He would then play a strategy knowing the cards of when to pick which hand etc. Walked away with a couple mil from multiple casinos before they figured it out.

I suspect he plays as a businessman, or as you kids say (cough, wheeze) to make bank. Keep in mind that his motivation for playing in the WSOP was largely to win lucrative bracelet bets. That action has dried up.
Cheers!
