Ivey seems to Hate TV but Love Life of Ivey?

Everytime you see Ivey on TV it seems he doesn't want to be there and is only there because of Fulltilt. But on the other hand he seems to love bickering with Barry on Life of Ivey.

Phil loves beating Barry out of money more than winning any poker tournament, imo

Probably also because LoI is on his terms, and more controlled, it makes him more comfortable.

He is just being himself while being on Life of Ivey. Other types of broadcasts are more formal and inquisitive.

He obviously has something bigger than 10k to bet on and is being forced to sit there with the "low stakes" crowd. What would you do if you had to play with the Old Ladies at the $2 Pan tables?

Last night on ESPN Phil had a little bit of an attitude when the guy stood up with a Full House.

I fifnd myself standing up when there is an ALl In even if I think I have won the hand.. I am not trying to be disrespectful to the other player, just my emotions I guess.

Phil was at an all time low when it comes to not being able to deliver for the first time in a long while. Lost all his sports and bracelet bets.

You're right about the WSOP being tough for Phil.
but imagine, you think about the main event and all you remember is that some amateur slowrolled,colddecked and knocked out at the same time. i would be ****ed too.it's not about the 10k, but you know you're going to play the next year, the next year and the next, and you have no clue to get through that friggin minefield. that sucks

Phil had a little bit of an attitude but he did mention, "we see things differently"

The guy slow rolled him and was also a bit of a retard.. mentioning something about Ivey maybe having pocket kings.

somehow I'm remind of jennifer tilly vs. patrik antonius on PAD now. ..
