"The thing that makes me good is that I have complete disregard for money."
-phil ivey
Even if you don't respect gambling or poker players you have to respect being at the top of your game. Woods, Federer, Pacquiao, Bryant... all are mesmerizing. Phil Ivey is a poker player I have loved ever since watching him in the World Series of Poker the year that random Tennessean named Moneymaker won it all. The man just has the look in the eye when he searches your every expression for clues until your flat broke. The mothership of sports did a little documentation of the lifestyle and story of Ivey, and I would say its worth a peek regardless of what angle you see it from.
