Poker Pro Phil Ivey Named 2005 Player Of The Year

Ivey is considered by pros and fans alike as one of the best professional Poker players in the world. His unparalleled success at the tables in 2005 has earned him the title of Bluff Magazine's Player of the Year. His accomplishments include: over $3.4 million in tournament earnings; 7 final tables; a World Series of Poker bracelet in $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha; a top 25 finish in the WSOP Main Event and a win at the 2005 Monte Carlo Millions.

Despite all his achievements, Ivey still considers himself a regular guy and can be seen at the Bellagio in Las Vegas playing in some of the biggest cash games in the world.

"I'm honored to win the Bluff Magazine Player of the Year award and to be recognized by such a great media outlet as Bluff Magazine," said Ivey.

"Phil Ivey has emerged as one of the best players of this generation. His focused play and success at the table have earned him Bluff's Player of the Year," said Eddy Kleid, Co-President of Bluff Magazine.

Bluff Magazine's Player of the Year is based on the accumulation of points in Bluff/ESPN Power Ranking for poker players.
