What world do you live in where he doesn't have every buyin paid for him. Tell you what show me his ROI% or any form of statistics on his winnings other than his lifetime winnings where it takes into account the money he has spent? You think the "best player in the world" would brag about his ROI rather than hide it.

@TypeAKiller

And he won all the bracelets in a short period of just 22 years, many other players couldnt even won 2 bracelets in a longer period, but they played that many tourneys aswell.

The only player who is better then him is Phil Ivey.

@Deco354

U think ultimate bet paid every buyin for him? in which world do u live?

and its impossible to play all approx. 50 tourneys while the wsop, because many tourneys are at the same time!

And yep

Full Tilt Poker the other day announced on their twitter fan site that new players should head on over to Full Tilts webpage, then make a account with the code SPECIALS.

It's a great promo deal. They will DOUBLE your initial deposit oh and multiple other excellent perks. It is only going work for the first 1500 people that create an account usin this

@Deco354 Your chances are "greater" but they are still not good by any means. Yes, Phil played a shit load of events but that doesn't take anything away from the fact that he has won all those braceletes, even as the fields got larger he remained the all time leader and I don't think he's played any more WSOP events than people like Barry Greenstein or Doyle, and yet neither have reached 11 yet. Not to mention all 11 are in Hold' Em just solidifying that PH is one of the best in the discipline

@TypeAKiller

Not only has he entered almost every single WSOP event but most the bracelets he won were before the WSOP was big. His first bracelet for example only had 179 entrants. Compared with the 7000 we had this year. It was much easier to win bracelets back then.

As for his bracelets beyond 2000 he was a sponsered player. Every single entrywould be paid for him so he played every single event. When you play 52 WSOP events a year your chances of winning bracelets are considerably greater.
