    I've played Phil Ivey a few times online, however he seems to multi account because his screen name has been things like philivey12, philiveysgreat, philivey57 etc. Also he seems to move a lot because he has been from various places such as Scunthorpe and Wigan, both of which, I am reliably informed are rather 'dowdy'.

    His personality seems to change too. Sometimes he is nice sometimes not. I guess multi millionaires also have bad days.

    He must be really keen on poker because he often plays the small limit games. Maybe he likes the interaction. 

    Played Philiveysdad too, he was nice.

    My biggest brag and most famous player is one and the same.

    I beat DTWBandit, playing live heads up at the SPT glasgow.  The delightful Miss Fowler was the dealer.

    Top that if you can Sky Peeps ;o)
