When Phil Ivey<\/strong> returned to playing tournaments at the World Series of Poker<\/strong> this summer, fans rejoiced.<\/p>\n

But his decision to buy into events might now hurt him in his $10.1 million edge sorting case against the Borgata Casino<\/strong> in Atlantic City, NJ<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Ivey\u2019s legal team is attempting to postpone payments owed to the casino from a legal ruling made in late 2016<\/strong>. Borgata filed a motion on Aug. 4 in federal court to deny Ivey and his team a delay in making payments and \u201cavoid posting a bond.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lawyers representing Ivey claimed in July that the sum is such where the \u201cenormity of that amount would clearly be of devastating impact.\u201d The case was made that Borgata\u2019s business would not be hurt should the judgment be further delayed.<\/p>\n

In legal documents, Borgata called the statement made by Ivey\u2019s team of the payment being of\u00a0\u201cirreparable harm\u201d to be invalid.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no testimony or evidence in this case that defendants will be prevented from pursuing their careers as professional gamblers if a stay is not granted,\u201d lawyers representing Borgata said.<\/p>\n

        Ivey\u2019s play at the World Series of Poker this summer included buy-ins ranging from the $565 Colossus all the way up to the $1 million Big One for One Drop<\/strong>. The high volume from Ivey led to only four cashes. His best result came in the $50,000 Poker Players Championship<\/strong> where Ivey finished ninth for $111,447.<\/p>\n

        Prior to the WSOP in May, Ivey cashed for $2.3 million in Montenegro in the Triton High Roller Series,<\/strong> making\u00a0two final tables and winning a Short Deck<\/strong> event. Those cashes marked the first for Ivey since January 2016\u2019s Triton High Roller Series in Manilla.<\/p>\n

        Borgata used Ivey\u2019s WSOP buy-ins as evidence that Ivey has \u201cno problem coming up with\u201d entry money for poker tournaments. The money won by Ivey this summer and in Montenegro is also cited by Borgata.<\/p>\n

        A track record of success including high stakes cash games and $26.2 million in career earnings is being used against Ivey by Borgata.<\/p>\n

        \u201cIvey\u2019s skill and success as a professional poker player are well documented,\u201d Borgata said of Ivey in court documents. \u201cHe is in the top three for poker winnings all time, and there is no suggestion that he cannot continue to be successful. Entrance fees for other poker tournaments are far less than $10,000 and one can play online poker with initial deposits of under $100. He is not in danger of being prevented from playing poker.\u201d<\/p>\n

        Ivey did play in the recent Triton High Roller Series in Jeju, South Korea following the WSOP but did not cash in any events.<\/p>\n
