【特别消息】

“她为我做了一切我无法做到的事。我什么也做不了，因为我一直在打牌。她总是照顾着我，当我输了的时候，她就是我的支柱。没有Luciaetta，我根本不会有今天。”

上面这段本来是我为《新竞技》所写的Phil Ivey传记的最后一段话。是Ivey用来感谢和赞美自己妻子Luciaetta的。

然而刚刚从美国方面传来消息，在圣诞节的前三天，曾经羡煞众人的Ivey夫妻前往内华达的法院联名提交了离婚申请，并于12月29日获得了通过。目前两人离婚的具体原因还不得而知。

2009年对于Ivey来说是神奇的一年，两个WSOP的金手镯，加上杀入主赛事的决赛桌，一切都是这么美好。但是，没有人会想到就在这年底的最后两天里，却传来了让所有喜欢Ivey的人心碎的消息。2009年这个黑色的句号，不知道对Ivey意味着什么？

2002年这对高中的情人、工作中的同事步入了神圣的婚姻殿堂。谁曾想到，在2009年这个寒冷的冬天，“7年之痒”最终还是Bad Beat了这位扑克桌上的老虎！

突然想起一首歌：

天空一朵一朵雪花

一阵一阵寒风

刺进我心头

你的天真美丽笑容

掩饰所有哀愁

靠在我胸口

为何你的吻如此冰冷

为何你的眼角泪在流

我知道我们走到缘分的尽头

你说再也没有天长地久的厮守

从此分开手

再也没有以后任爱在雪中颤抖

祝Ivey早日解脱，更希望他们离婚的消息只是谣言。。。

世上能用“永远”二字的事，就是“变化”。

你不覺得外國人在別人面前說愛對方卻離婚多，中國人在別人面前甚少說愛對方卻離婚較少（寫較少是因為離婚都開始多了），這裡有很多是中外不同文化的問題。

以我对Ivey有限的了解——他玩牌时所展露的性格， Ivey很难忠于一个女人……

In breaking news from TMZ, 2009 World Series of Poker (WSOP) November Nine member Phil Ivey has filed for divorce from his wife of seven years, Luciaetta. Ivey finished seventh in the $10,000 buy-in tournament this year and earned $1.4 million.

On Tuesday, a report that appeared on TMZ read in part, “Ivey and Luciaetta filed the joint petition in a Nevada court on December 22 ... three days before Christmas. The divorce was granted today - both parties were present for the ruling.” The couple wed in 2002 and has no children. TMZ added that Ivey has made $12 million over the course of his poker career. The “Tiger Woods of Poker” appeared on the cover of “ESPN: The Magazine” in November.

Ivey earned two WSOP bracelets during the 2009 tournament series to ratchet his total up to seven. Interestingly, none of the seven has come in Hold’em, as he has instead taken down Pot Limit Omaha, Limit Seven Card Stud, Limit Seven Card Stud High-Low, Limit SHOE, Deuce to Seven Draw Lowball, and Omaha/Seven Card Stud High-Low events. In the latter, his most recent bracelet win, Ivey trumped Ming Lee heads-up in a final table that also included Carlos Mortensen, November Nine member Eric Buchman, Jon “PearlJammer” Turner, and Dutch Boyd.

TMZ was quick to point out the irony of Ivey being compared to Woods. Its news story detailed, “Ivey is known in the card community as the ‘Tiger Woods of Poker’ - [insert your own joke here].” Woods was involved in a now-famous auto collision with a tree in front of his home. His wife purportedly smashed the SUV’s window with a golf club to help Woods exit safely. What led to the incident is anyone’s guess, but a handful of women are alleged to have had extra-marital affairs with the professional golfer.

Earlier this month, Woods announced that he was taking a leave of absence from golf. In addition, companies like Accenture and Gillette ended their advertising and sponsorship agreements with Woods. In fact, a Reuters article released on Tuesday noted that Woods’ infidelity could costs the shareholders of companies he endorses up to a colossal $12 billion. Researchers explained the enormous loss of value: "Our analysis makes clear that while having a celebrity of Tiger Woods' stature as an endorser has undeniable upside, the downside risk is substantial, too."

Ivey’s first eight in the money finishes on the World Poker Tour (WPT) were all for final tables and he picked up a win in the Season VI L.A. Poker Classic for $1.6 million. All told, Ivey has just under $3 million in career earnings from the WPT circuit.

Meanwhile, posters on the popular online poker forum PocketFives.com reacted to the TMZ story. “33mikemcg” noted, “I had no idea he was married. Nice life for that ex-wife I am sure she will get plenty to last a lifetime.”

Poker players, who travel around the United States and the world to live tournaments, seemed to be able to sympathize with Ivey. “ImaLuckSac” explained that the pro’s lifestyle may not have been conducive to a stable marriage: “All jokes aside, who can really be that surprised? These guys are constantly traveling, stressed, and still making the big bucks. Personally I think they deserve a lil' strange.” Others jokingly speculated as to whether Ivey had any prop bets on how long his marriage would last.

Ivey is a member of Team Full Tilt, a group that also includes poker pros like Howard Lederer, Andy Bloch, Erick Lindgren, Mike Matusow, and Jennifer Harman. He was the inaugural opponent on the NBC poker game show “Face the Ace” and seemed to strike up an accord with Maryland logger Darvin Moon at the final table of the 2009 WSOP Main Event.
