Ivey Adds WPT Title

Phil Ivey is one of the most popular and well known poker pros in the game today, despite never having won a World Poker Tour title. Now that he has put that particular hurdle past him with his recent $1.5 million victory at the LA Poker Classic, there are even more reasons to love this player. Ivey is well known for his darting eyes and serious demeanor at the table, but he is not above cracking a smile when the mood takes him. His victory at the Commerce Casino event, part of the Season Six run of the WPT, grabbed him $1,596,100, putting him in the exclusive club of players who have won a million or more at a WPT event.
