Go read "Fooled by Randomness", then make the connection to Phil Ivey.
These guys can only get away with this for so long....

Just go to youtube and look at the videos of him playing craps.
Thats all I need to know about the guy.

Cleek, OK, your article states that he may be worth upwards of $70 million, so that is less than $100M, right? Also, I didn't state there were 16 owners in full tilt, I said they were involved, as in endorsers. Yes Ivey may be one of the top ones. I have seen estimates that Full tilt has made about $50 million /year the past few years, so Ivey is making some money but not Tiger Woods type of money...
Your claim that Ivey is worth a ton from full tilt may be true now , on paper, but that could all turn to shit at any time if the US gov focuses on all of the potentially illegal poker money out there and confiscates it. They have done it before and will likely do it again. It'd be like saying you had millions invested w/ Bernie Madaff...
Finally Ivey is in the middle of a divorce so you can cut his value in half...
