  1. Why is Ivey playing like 2 hands and sitting out repeatedly? I dont understand
     
  2. mind games?
  3. Pretty sure he plays Durrrr until he gets action at 2k/4k O8.... Kinda frustrating, but thats what hes been doing.
  4. Seems to be a prop bet of sorts
  5. Good question. I'm too stupid to know the answer but figured he was just periodically entertaining himself while he waited for better action.
  6. Phil Ivey: going to play horse and omaha 8 where im a clear
    favorite instead of plo against u where im a dog
    Phil Ivey: but will keep my stack in case game breaks
    durrrr: zzz glgl
    durrrr: gg
    durrrr: play there...
    durrrr: its fine
  7. well iveys currently sitting with over 1mil spread across 3 tables...i think he can do whatever the fuck he wants

    wow

    lol yeah, i wish i was durrr--mb sickest props ever. i'd cut and paste that, frame it and hang it on my wall.
  11. If Ivey said that sincerely it just shows how great a person and a player he is, being able to admit shamelessly that Dwan has an edge on him at PLO knowing that hundreds of people are watching, and that he is considered by many as the best in the world....Not many in poker are able to be this humble while having the amount of success that Ivey has.....I personally see this as class act and consider him an embassador of poker.

    well...Ivey also said on video that Durr will be the one to bust him. However, I hear Durris on a bit of a downswing right now :(

    really whats that info gonna do for him? if he gave away a bet every sesh just to "see what he had" knowing full well the pot was never ever coming his way. This would be a mistake worth hundreds of thousands a year , hence the fold.

    Yea, this is pretty standard, you don't throw away bets in O8, "curiousity" calls will put you in the poor house.
  26. Isnt that hand against Ivey spewy by durr???......Is this by any means standard?

    if u are referring to the plo HU hand i believe it is pretty std once the flop comes, and once u raise pre in HU PLO there is no folding
  28. Durrr sitting with like 1.05 mill on 4 tables... Pretty sure he said he was stuck 600k earlier while playing Ivey and a few 200/400 PLO tables. Safe to say hes recouped the 600k and then some.

    Edit: Make that 1.15mill now
  29. are they done now? i dont see em
