They say Ivey is the best in the world right now? Is he.....

Indeed he is... at least in my opinion

I think so, the new TV series High Stakes poker would benefit so much from Ivey on there, but none of the other players would be too crazy about him playing there, he can throw around his money like it's confetti, I heard he took 17 million off of a rich guy a while back just because the guy wanted to try and bust Ivey. Hah

I personally think there are 3 or 4 better players but there's no disputing that Ivey is one of the top 5 at least if not top 3. He definately commands a table. But Chris Ferguson, Daniel Negreanu, Phil Helmuth are all good players too. I guess it depends on lady luck and who she's favoring in the tourney.

Ivey has really never impressed me all that much. I guess I must be missing something since so many people think he's all that. Negreanu is still the man though.

Ivey is a really good player, there is no denying that. I think in general he is a better cash game player than tournament, since most of us only see the tournaments its kinda hard to see why he is so good.

I don't know if he is the best yet, he is good but not the best.
