No-Limit Hold’em Poker- Who is Phil Ivey?
Aug 27th, 2015 by Mason

Phil Ivey has been labeled as the number one poker player on the globe by most of the top professionals. He was born in Riverside, CA and relocated to Jersey before his first birthday. His grandfather taught Phil penny-ante Five-Card Stud poker. From then on on, Phil was addicted to poker and wished to discover whatever he could about the game. He would tell his grandparents that he was going to be a professional poker player. He didn’t let the negative feedback from other people destroy his dream of being one of the greatest poker players on the planet.

Phil began competing seriously after getting a fake ID with the name of Jerome. He sharpened his abilities at the poker rooms in Atlantic City. The first number of years for him were a teaching experience and coming away with a win was not a regular outcome at the time. He made his mark at the 2000 World Series of Poker when he achieved two final tables and won his first WSOP bracelet, in a $2, 500 Pot-Limit Omaha game. At the closing table he defeated a number of the better known pros including "Amarillo Slim" Preston, David "Devilfish" Ulliot, and Phil Hellmuth, Jr.

Phil made a decision to take his game to the next level and headed out west to Sin City. He continues to compete in in "The Big Game" at the Bellagio with the best players in the world. Ivey credits his achievements to hard work and a continuing love for poker. He states that he’s picking up skills every day and is quite humble about his success. He admits to making blunders in each session of poker and always strives to improve.

Despite the fact that Phil has won some large tournaments, he favors destroying money games on a normal basis.

Right Before you Tilt

Ah, the tilt. If a poker enthusiast states never to have looked over the shadow of an approaching tilt – they are either telling a lie or they haven’t been competing very long. This does not imply of course that each and every one has gone on tilt in the past, a handful of people have great willpower and carry their squanderings as a defeat and leave it at that. To be a powerful poker gambler, it is especially important to treat your successes and your losses in the same manner – with no emotion. You compete in the match in the same manner you did after taking a tough beat as you would after winning a big hand. All poker masters are not enticed by tilting after an awful defeat as they are very experienced and you should be to.

You need to understand that you will not win every hand you are in, even if you are the strongest player. Hands that frequently make people go on tilt are hands you were the favorite or at a minimum believed you were up until you were side swiped and you burned a big portion of your stack. Bad defeats are bound to develop. Embrace that reality right now, I’ll say it once again – if your brother plays cards, if your father enjoys cards, if your grandpa plays cards – They have all had bad beats at some point. It is an unavoidable experience of competing in Holdem, or in reality any kind of poker.

After all we are assumingly (almost all of us) playing poker for one reason – to earn money, it certainly makes sense that we would bet appropriately to maximize our profit potential. Now let’s say you are up $100 off of a $100 deposit, and you take a huge hit in a No Limits game and your bankroll is down to one hundred and twenty dollars. You have burned eighty dollars in a hand where you were certain to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you decided to go all-in on the flop and enjoyed a 10 – 1 edge. And that fiend! He sucked you out on the river? – Well stop right there. This is a classic opportunity for a brand-new bettor to start tilting. They basically blew too much money on one hand that they really should have won and they are pissed
