Bluff Magazine and ESPN Name Phil Ivey Poker Player of the Year
Monte Carlo Millions winner Phil Ivey has been recognized by Bluff Magazine and ESPN as the 2005 poker player of the year. The prestigious honor, bestowed by the world’s most widely distributed poker publication and the worldwide leader in sports, was received with humility by Ivey, who still considers himself to be "a regular guy." Regular? Hardly.
