Wouldn't be suprised if he surpassed Helmuth in the future.

Ivey had always been the Goat in my eyes

That's actually quite remarkable! Time passes and people change their priorities, their interests and what they do with their time. After being an impressive hard-worker at the poker tables and out of them, considered the GOAT by many, Ivey simply passed big part of the last 10 years dedicating himself to other stuff, specially his family. And now he returns to the WSOP and some other big competitions, and gets another bracelet. Really impressive.

If he played more tournaments instead of cash games, he would be hot on the heels of Phil Hellmuth.

He is one smart cookie . The article said all of Ivey 's bracelets have come in non holdem events .

Congrats to Phil Ivey, I'm sure there are many more bracelets for him in the future. Of course he wins with the best possible hand in 2-7.

He must have to pry himself away from Bobby's Room to play in the tournaments. Was great watching him play this event and then to actually win it!

Ivey is still one of the best players of this game.The final table was not easy at all.I hope he can win another bracelet this yesr.

It's nice to see how he still is one of the best players even after so many years. I remember that when started to play around 18 years ago he was one of the top 3 best players and I still think he is one the best 3 players nowadays.

 

[ztibor72]

Wow, I think he is the best.

 

[Margo17]

A great player, he has my respect/admiration, unlike Phil Hellmuth's arrogant idiot, I hope he surpasses the titles.

Assuming you saw this on Poker go? I was actually there in the stands for a while. Was different watching it live over TV. Would have been better if it was holdem i think being there. My family was making fun of me be on the live stream. I may never be at a final table but i was at the final table.

Nice to see Ivey back with a WSOP win. Plus, the hats were trailblazing poker fashion!

 

[Marshmalo1994]

Nice! Who doesn't want to have at least just one of those

 

[MTCashman]

Congrats Phil, he continues to show why he is one of the best!

A title after almost a decade! So let's take it easy, because the difference is still 6 titles.
