no one going to really be able to answer this question because its hypothetical and you couldnt possible be accurate so just give an opinion, i was watching a bit of poker yesterday an phi livey came on, it got me thinking, if phil ivey was to give up a year of his time to play mtts on sky what do you think his end of year sharkscope winnings would be?

    If he properly put the time in and did a 'DivsDream' lol, I'd put him down for a +£25k year

    I reckon he could struggle, and maybe end up as low as break even.

    He'd lose loads because he'd have to play against bad players and they always win. I've read it on 'ere loads of times.

    Keep this one quiet.....but Mr Ivey is already playing on Sky but keeps it really low key.

    He plays under the alias IDONKCALLU. He is crushing every f/roll/MTT and cash table he plays.............(allegedly)

    + 20 k imo   he would do well to win 1 main event a week im not sure how much profit that would be

    What about monthly roller/UKOPS? Looking at current profit leaderboards then I think $100k is attainable and he wouldn't have to be winning a main a week.

    He'd be sittin there for months bum hunting, and have to sell one of his houses after 6 months.

    I think he'd crush under pretty much all circumstances....playing as much of the current schedule as possible i'd back him to clear 50k-100k


    on a side not:
    to what extent would it benefit him to remain anonymous?

    Well if there's 365 ME's in a year with an average BI of £33 that's £12045 invested so even if he had a sick ROI of like 40% that would only be £4.8k profit.

    Not sure he could make another £40k+ from the other MTTs that Sky run, unless he runs very good in a few UKOPS

    Easy answer, imo.

    He'd be busto.


    No, really.
    Argh... nooooo, REALLY, I mean it, sincerely ffs.


    Just think how hard he'd degen on SkyVegas, it's only a click away from the lobby after all. He'd be broke in a matter of months grinding the pitt games all day.

     He'd die of boredom guys. after seeing him making golf side bets with Dwan while playing nonchalant $50k pots . He certainly has an aura about him. Watched an episode of full tilt million dollar cash challenge season 5 (2or 3). He had Andrew Feldman literally shaking and so confused for a while that the commentator thought he should take a break. Really was awesome and its on you tube folks. Great field Dwan, Hansen, Matusow(would you believe he has a singing donkey too at the table), Antonious, Ferguson and others. Well worth a watch.
