Watch: Is Ivey the GOAT?

Phil Ivey is widely considered one of the best all-around poker players in the world, Ivey has won multiple World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets and has appeared at numerous final tables in various types of poker tournaments.

Ivey first gained significant recognition in the poker world at a young age and quickly ascended the ranks. Over his career, he has won 10 WSOP bracelets and has made it to the final table at the World Poker Tour (WPT) multiple times. He has also been a regular participant in high-stakes cash games, competing against some of the world's top players.

Besides tournaments and cash games, Ivey has ventured into business, with investments in the online poker industry among other enterprises. He has also faced legal issues, most notably concerning "edge-sorting" techniques he used to win a substantial sum at a baccarat table, leading to ongoing lawsuits.

In his interview with Lex Fridmen, Daniel Negreanu, one of the greatest poker players of all time, made the assertion that Phil Ivey is the GOAT!

Not everyone agrees with Daniel, including the other Phil (Hellmuth)… In this clip he debated his position as the GOAT:

From strategic thinking to confidence building, she says learning poker can be a significant source of real-world education for young women to overcome persistent gender bias in the professional world.
