A 27 anni, Phil Ivey è diventato un punto di riferimento per i pokeristi. Spesso citato come il "Tiger Woods" del poker. Phil è un punto di riferimento per la nuova generazione di giocatori.
Ivey nasce a Riverside in California nel '76 ma cresce nel NewJersey. Conobbe il poker all'età di 8 anni grazie al nonno e da quel momento a chi gli chiedeva la classica "cosa vuoi fare da grande" lui rispondeva: "il giocatore di poker".
A 18 anni Phil falsifica un ID per poter entrare nei casino di Atlantic City dove poi si stabilì un paio di anni dopo.
Non ingrana subito,anzi perde parecchio ma fa tesoro degli errori e si mette a studiare il gioco seriamente in tutte le sue varianti (omaha hi/low,7stud,limit..) e nel 2000 partecipa alle sue prime WSOP.
Alla sua prima apparizione alle WSOP il 26enne Phil Ivey conquista un bracciale nel evento 2.500$ di Pot-limit Omaha battendo quello che è considerato il miglior giocare di Omaha PL, Dave devilfish Ulliot.
Phil si sposta così a LasVegas e comincia a frequentare quotidianamente i più alti cash-game della mecca del poker.Mirage,Belagio diventano casa sua.
Nel febbraio del 2006, Phil giocò Heads-up con Andy Beal, un matematico che ha guadagnato la sua fama sfidando i più bravi giocatori di poker. Alla fine di tre giorni di Heads-up , Phil Ivey aveva vinto a Beal $ 16,6 milioni.
