WSOP Reports
The debate about who the greatest poker player of all time could be endless, with a hundred different opinions from a hundred different people. But there is no doubt about one player who belongs in that conversation and he showed on Day 4 of Event #29: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw Championship (6-Handed) that he’s still got it.
Phil Ivey, acknowledged as perhaps the best player alive for 20 years, ended a decade-long drought at the World Series of Poker when he defeated Danny Wong heads up to win his 11th bracelet. The win moves him past Johnny Chan, Erik Seidel, and the late, great Doyle Brunson and into second place on the all-time leaderboard. Just Phil Hellmuth looms ahead of him.
“It’s good. It feels good. It feels good to win always,” Ivey said, with a large crowd gathering to capture the moment a true legend of the game achieved a new career milestone.
