Ivey - Downswingaments!

[bridgey321]

Bloody hell, what has happened to Ivey!? Check out his downswing, that has got to hurt, although it's probably only a small portion of what he took in WSOP prop bets this summer

man he sucks at nl100,000 :o

2.5M downswing... So that's like 5 buyins? I've had worse!

But seriously, I'm sure he can afford this as you say but it still can't be good for his career. I wonder what sort of rakeback he gets, maybe that will help him out :s

And he had a $900,000 profit day. That is an unbelievable turnover for one day. I wonder what sort of multi-national business makes that sort of money each day? ($328m a year)

rake back doenst even make a buyin per YEAR i am guessng, theyre pots are 50cent rakes hu and 2 bucks 6max.

I wasn't being serious about the rakeback, it's never going to cover any significant part of his losses but what is the maximum rake in a hand? Every pot that sees a flop with be raked the maxium. If you're playing 100,000HU hands you're probably looking at around 50c a hand.
