#3 Posted: 12/22/2010 1:38:51 PM Ivey Lederer and Fergusan each make about 2 mill a month. Lesser guys like E-dog and the mouth make about 250-300,000 a month from the site.
1% ownership in the site is big money just ask Clowie about that. |

She lost the suit thats why I said ask her because the suit was worth millions had she won. She sued everyone affiliated with the site.
You guys would be surprised how much money these sites have to burn. Thats why they advertise so much and have so many average players on the pay-roll.

I watched him take $500k off Jerry Buss playing heads up, took him about three hours. Have also seen him lose 400k to Hansen playing omaha |

I have been saying this for a long time to anyone who would listen. Ivey is nothing special as a poker player because he does not have to be. He is filthy rich, and justifiably so, due to his Full Tilt site. Being a good Hold Em PLAYER guarantees NOTHING and just makes you one of millions to fall into that category.
Even annoying Howard Lederer is wise enough like Ivey to realize that owning a site is where the guaranteed big money is at. And I applaud them for that.  |

Jerry Buss is awful, so that is no surprise. |

Ivey and these other so called great players(no such thing possible in poker with 50% of the game out of the players hands) make their money through ownership of fixed pokersites, endorsments and in cash games vs rich donkeys like buss and guys from the middle east and china who want to play with big names, not from any recent(last 4 years or less) poker tourneys or cash games vs other compitant players. |
