WSOP Legend: 10-Time Bracelet Winner Phil Ivey

Level 6 : 150/300, 30 ante
WSOP Legend Phil Ivey
WSOP Legend Phil Ivey

Few poker players have captured the attention of the poker universe quite like Phil Ivey. There have been plenty of champions of the game who crushed it at the felt, but none who built up the mystique of Ivey, who remains to this day arguably the most magnetic player in poker despite results that no longer match his days of utmost dominance.

A day after the anniversary of Ivey's induction into the Poker Hall of Fame, PokerNews examines the legacy of his WSOP success. Prior to 2000, Ivey didn't have any recorded WSOP cashes.

The 23-year-old didn't waste any time establishing himself as one of the top up-and-coming players. That year, after already making one final table and finishing fifth, Ivey secured his first bracelet. He beat none other than fellow Hall of Famer Amarillo Slim Preston heads up to win Event #14: $2,500 Pot-Limit Omaha, a rebuy event, for his first bracelet and $195,000. Three other Hall of Famers — Chris Bjorin, Phil Hellmuth and David "Devilfish" Ulliott — also competed at that final table, so shipping it was about more than just getting his first taste of gold. Ivey showed he could beat the best in the business.

Two years after that, though, would be when Ivey really showed he was the present and future of the game. In 2002, Ivey showcased his skills at limit poker in a big way.

Top Pair No Good for Bibat

Level 6 : 150/300, 30 ante

Tanner "bamatide88" Bibat raised to 600 from the cutoff and then called the 2,400 three-bet Andy "Love2Lose" Porter made from the big blind.

The flop came {9-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts}, Porter continued for 2,062 and Bibat called. Porter led out again for 3,874 after the {q-Spades} appeared on the turn and Bibat called bringing the {8-Clubs} river.

Porter slowed down and checked this time, then snap-called the 16,639 all in bet from Bibat.

Bibat showed {k-Spades}{q-Clubs} for a pair of ladies but they were no good as Porter held {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for the ten-high straight and Bibat was eliminated from the tournament.

Christopher "Voccgbcc0235" Carle raised to 530 on the button and then called the 1,937 three-bet Jeff "NedrudRelyt" Madsen made from the big blind.

Jeff "NedrudRelyt" Madsen: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Christopher "Voccgbcc0235" Carle: {k-Clubs}{j-Spades}

Carle was ahead after pairing his jack on the flop and the {k-Hearts} turn did improve his hand to two-pair but it also gave Madsen broadway.

Carle needed a king or jack on the river to stay alive but the {a-Hearts} appeared and ended his tournament.
