Anyone following this? Some great results and action so far.

Erick Lindgren finally won his first ever bracelet in Event #4 the $5000 Mixed Holdem event.

A lot of pros going deep in the early events, look out for Phil Ivey this series as ive heard hes got a fortune in bracelet bets with various people so he is on a mission.

Iveys deep in the $1500 LHE tourney at the moment, been following it cos a guy from my poker forum is almost at the final table.


Ivey really really is going hard for bracelets this year, he has massive bets on.

Also has a bet with Daniel Negreanu that each bracelet one wins more than the other means $200k.

So if Ivey wins 3 bracelets and Daniel wins 0 then Dan owes him $600k

Ivey is a absolute sicko when it comes to gambling, I think his stop-loss limit is a mill but on one of the tapes you see David Williams saying 'yea you lose heaps when im there but then I hear about you having 3-4 million dollar winning DAYS' siiiiiiiiiiick.

Ivey tells him to shut the . up infront of the camera, I wonder how much is reported to the tax department Laughing
