Phil Hellmuth: Nobody likes to spend money more than Ivey

2010-04-21 10:10:32

Phil Ivey loves the high life as much as he does poker, a fellow professional has claimed.

According to Phil Hellmuth, writing in his official blog, the seven-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner enjoys "spending cheese like the river Nile flows".

He added that Ivey can get through "deca-millions" on properties, private jets and the best hotel rooms that he can buy.

"Ivey goes to the best night clubs on the planet and ... he is not afraid to drop $20,000 or more on the table bill," Hellmuth remarked.

The Poker Brat stated that he also has a penchant for the expensive life, unlike the card sharp Chris 'Jesus' Ferguson.

Hellmuth observed that his friend still drives a modest car and lives in a basic apartment, only "splurging" on clothes.

The reason for Ferguson's lifestyle, he commented, is that Jesus believes the more things that a person owns, the more complicated their life will be.
