Confirmed RaiseOnce = Ivey
Sunday, September 26th, 2010I made a case a while back (with lots of evidence) of why RaiseOnce on Pokerstars was very probably Phil Ivey. See this RaiseOnce Ivey post. But now I am essentially going to confirm it.
RaiseOnce was registered in the 10K WCOOP 8-Game (and sat out) and not registered for the running $5K WCOOP Main Event. The WSOPE Main Event in London was still running at the time (with Ivey still in it). Then when the WSOPE ME concluded for the evening about 20 mins later RaiseOnce sits into the WCOOP 8-Game and registers for the $5K WCOOP Main Event AND Ivey joins a table of $300/$600 PLO on Full Tilt within the same few minutes. The writing is on the wall. It is confirmed in every way shape and form apart from actually coming out of Ivey’s lips.
As a later after-note to this post: At 19.43 ET - he disconnected at both Stars and FTP at precisely the same time. Final confirmation really.
