Phil Ivey Rumor Update

As I had previously mentioned in a post a little while ago about the golf match between Phil Ivey and Ram Vaswani things are starting to heat up pretty good between the two of them and there are a lot of poker message boards and blogs heating up with the news. As a little bit of a refresher Phil Ivey, Ram Vaswani and Clark Badmin were playing a high stakes golf match. Now Phil Ivey was definitely handing it to these two guys on the course, and they continued to lose hole after hole but the stakes were doubling every time. Before this match Phil Ivey had lost a match with these guys and he owed them around $300k, and yes he paid them all of it, the very next day.

Now comes this event.... When this match is all said and done Ivey is up $1.8 Million dollars off of these guys and then there was a heated exchange between the three of them, and how it ended up was Vaswani and Badmin claimed the match wasn't fair even though they continued to play double or nothing.

Phil Ivey paid these guys the full amount when he lost to them and now they won't pay him his earnings. They haven't even paid Ivey the amount of money that he paid them when he lost. This will definitely not be the last that you will hear on this story as I'm sure when these guys run into one another at the poker tables something is going to go down. As professional gamblers these guys should know better than anyone about the risks involved and if you get in to deep you should just cut your losses and get out. These guys obviously did not think the match was too unfair as they proceded to continue to play double or nothing. Were these hustlers over confident in their own abilities or just dumb. I'll take the latter.
