"If you enjoy winning, you have to appreciate The fact you're gonna lose sometimes" Awesome quote from The legend

"There's better ways to win than just guessing." Felt like Ivey was personally giving me advice on that one.

PHIL IVEY IS THE GREATEST POKER PLAYER OF ALL TIME - truly..a legend!

The man, the myth, the legend, finally back doing interviews... idk who that guy with papi is tho

First Phil Ivey then Tom Dwan? That is so f sick man. Papi GTO legendary podcaster.

You can tell how nervous Joey is because of what a moment this is for him from when he started doing podcasts... LOVE IT!

"There is an easier way to win than guessing". Quote of the year.

What a setup getting the classic Ivey staredown for an hour while trying to conduct a good interview lmao epic Joey

Joey’s neck looking like it is getting sunburnt by the Ivey stare. #tells

Something about Phils calm introspective energy, talking about his youthful selfishness, his past and current emotional availability, there’s a maturity and wisdom which chimes with growing up. A joy to listen to 👏

I like how Phil didn’t want to give anyone an edge by giving his power rankings. His intensity always reminded me of Kobe Bryant’s, MJ. Nice interview joe!
