The World Poker Tour signed Phil Ivey as its newest ambassador. Many people see Ivey as the greatest poker player of all time.
Ivey described WPT as one of the most respected poker brands. Also, he is honored to be its brand ambassador. He is looking forward to working with the poker company to showcase the card game globally.
According to gambling tutorials and news sites, Ivey is joining a good roster that includes Steve Aoki, Andrew Neeme, Brad Owen, and Doyle Brunson. Also, Ivey’s first role for the brand will start at the WPT World Championships. It is the first live poker tournament with a guaranteed prize money of $15 million.

Ivey will also participate in other WPT tournaments at Wynn next month. He participated in Steve Aoki’s WPT-sponsored private house game with fans earlier this year and is a neighbor of the other WPT ambassador, who also lives nearby, according to the best gambling websites.
Ivey is undoubtedly among the top poker players of all time, if not the best. With 10 World Series of Poker bracelets, the Poker Hall of Famer is tied for second place all-time with Brunson and Johnny Chan. With 16, Phil Hellmuth is in the first place.
The Hendon Mob claims Ivey has over $38 million in live tournament winnings. However, his tournament-playing success extends well beyond the WSOP. He’s one of the all-time greats on the World Poker Tour, having made it to 11 final tables and won two championships.
According to Korean Sportsbook sources, the legendary poker player, formerly known by the moniker “No Home Jerome,” has long been a destroyer in high-stakes poker cash games worldwide and previously held the record for the most profitable online poker account on Full Tilt Poker.
