the end is honestly so beautiful. they have a beautiful friendship and the way they can talk about is such an amazing thing. that is what life is all about
It's also encouraging to see their personal growth. Phil admitting it's not easy for him to say what he thinks of Barry at the end, but putting the effort in when asked to, is a really strong lesson.
From someone that watched Poker since 2007, watching these two at a new chapter in their lives and talking to each other in this interview is so wholesome. And Berry is such a gentleman and a nice dude.
Glad you got your fire back Phil.......I wish you nothing but the best. Never forget that God blessed you with this and you'll always be a winner. God Bless brother....Greg
This was absolutely wonderful. As someone who has watched these guys through the filter of poker tv it was really special to see the friendship and honesty shared here. Seeing Phil laugh and crack jokes was perfectly uplifting! THANK YOU!
Phil always has his guard up, no one will ever dig deep and get under that, (not even his buddies on camera,) thats why he is the best, a real pro, and I admire what he is, what he has achieved, how he has elevated poker into the mainstream, and, what inspiration and dreams he has brought to many. That was a long sentence, hehe.
Maybe it is just me but most people see him as just a wall where I just saw him open up the gate for his dear friend...even if the gate was only half way open lol.
@@sethbriars2042 all this Duncan love, I fuck with y’all born in San Antonio. & of course this guy was my first poker inspiration and always will be my fav ✊🏾
Besides being one of the smartest and best players ever, barry is also one of the kindest and most respectful and polite player on the table.. A true gentleman
What a marvelous interview. I watched these two play during the Poker Boom and admired both greatly. It's wonderful seeing and enduring friendship and the admiration they have for each other. Class acts, both of them.
I think that Phil Ivey was/is one of a group of players that have dominated the game since the beginning of the TV age. Other players that dominate are Phil Laak, Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Gus Hansen and others. Prior to the TV age I would cite Doyle Brunson, and Amarillo Slim as the Poker pioneers. Finally, there will be another major Poker Player...there always is.
@@barrykacher7761 Lol at listing Gus (biggest losing player ever online) and Hellmuth (deluded MTT pro who's only good against amateur tournament chumps) in same sentence as Ivey and Brunson.
Love to watch this guy play. His demeanor and style make him so unique. He is one of the few that plays the game like he is playing the opponent's hand, rather then his own. In doing this he eliminates himself as one of the opponents. Great poker mind.
@@ldeue4837 Every online poker player uses some kind of tracker like Pokertracker. There would be solid chart proof of it being rigged in the variance etc. I've got about 2m hands in mine it's obviously not rigged, it's purely random.
Dude Phil Ivey and Durrrr are the most amazing and enjoyable poker players to watch. I replaced them with Andy and Garret from the bike since Ivey and Tom are were out playing huge games around the world.
At Barry's funeral they will say: "Barry was a good guy, wasn't he....anyway, what time's the poker game tonight?" And Barry will look up and be smiling, thinking "Mark sure you bring your A Game tonight, try not to think about me during the game, there'll be plenty of time to think about me between games."
I look up to Phil. He is an ambassador of poker and a boss. I remember I said he was the tiger woods of poker before it was said alot. I like how humble he is..these video's are inspirational
@@RR-bd4jp , Ivey is overrated. In 2014, Ivey is the biggest loser in online poker. In 2015, Ivey is the biggest LOSER in online poker. Nowadays, top poker players run circle on Ivey.
@@michaelss1294 well that is your opinion now isn't it. He seems to have made his money and more than you or I will ever come close to ever seeing. So I am sure he doesn't care. And online isn't even notable most of it isn't real poker or is a scam. I hear your opinion though.
These are awesome! Phil has always been my favorite player. Him and Jungleman. It’s great to see he’s coming back. I hope to see him playing a lot in the near future.
I lost all my money gambling lost my life to gambling but now I'm rebuilding with poker. I gave up every other form of gambling. All I do is grind micros now.
I wanna wedding invite. Who would have thought.... 😂 Great video series in all seriousness. This is one of the very few times you will see Phil open up in this way. Both legends.
The best poker player in the whole world period hes the Michael Jordan of poker and I would agure with anyone that he's the best all around poker player in the world its amazing how well he plays every hand its mind boggling
There are probably at least 200-500 online players who have deeply studied GTO with solver who would destroy Ivey and Dnegs nowadays. This isn't 2009 anymore when everyone sucked and had a really poor understanding of the deep fundamentals of the game.
There may be 500 online players who do all that GTO studying but will never be able to play the nosebleed stakes that Phil plays at consistently and beat him. If you look majority of the high stakes players that play at Bobby’s room in the summer, it’s jungle man, Doyle, galfond, Ivey, Gus Hansen, oppenheim, hennigan, I mean how many GTO players are playing $400-$800, $500-$1k live. It’s one thing to be behind a computer but a whole other story live and have to look at Phil’s face.
Phil needs to grow his sides and back out and get a hairpiece for the top. It would improve his mental game. You have to be confident with your outward appearance to dominate at the tables. That's what he needs. Remember Phil in the early to mid 2000s? His hair gave him an edge at the tables. It's like when Abe Mosseri started playing better after his transplant when he started growing thin hair up top. It gave him confidence.
I started Playing Poker Because of Phil Ivey and Stu Ungar ,He inspired me To Do Better at Poker and to have the Balls to Play High limit Tables 🙏👍🏼🍻Thank You Ivey Fucking Legend

Love the content
this was pure gold 2 me so awesome ❤❤
this was a lie.
Nice to see old poker legends being active again. Exciting.
calling Phil an old player is weird to me.
How great is Barry in this interview. Dude is sharp. That's Phil's best friend. Phil is lucky to have a buddy like him.
I had no idea these pair were so close. Really nice to see their respect and affection for each other.
Gay!

I like the part when they tell each other I love you in 3rd person
lmao
And then Phil giving a practice eulogy for Barry 😂
"I try to stay in the moment as much as I can" you cant begin to know how profound this is, until you live it.
100% "the power of now", amazing book as well to read.
His eyes wide open and focused 👀
@@alisa6404 always
Far easier said than done. Especially when you have financial stability.
Glad you got your fire back Phil.......I wish you nothing but the best. Never forget that God blessed you with this and you'll always be a winner. God Bless brother....Greg
The funeral talk and music made me sadddd. Love both these guys.
Man that was nuts. so much honestly. Love to hear him honestly. Such a humble person
Some times I forget that I’m getting old and then I see people who were young when I was young 😂😭
Ye it’s a trip, especially when you look at someone the same age as you and they’ve gone from young looking to extremely middle age looking.
Feels
We all age guys don’t worry about it do what Phil says live in the moment
Absolutely.. I remember Phil in 2003 time flies

This is such a good series. Always admired Ivey.
He’s the Tim Duncan of poker...so mysterious yet so good.
Yo I’m from San Antonio born and raised I fuck with that comment
great comparison
@@chriscastillo9536 I’m in New Braunfels and Timmy’s my all-time favorite player in all of sports. #GoSpursGo
Dude Tim Duncan is my favorite athlete ever and I looked up to Ivey when I was learning poker back in 2006/2007. Love this comment.
@@sethbriars2042 all this Duncan love, I fuck with y’all born in San Antonio. & of course this guy was my first poker inspiration and always will be my fav ✊🏾

Him and Seidel
Never realized how much I learned from the good players I spent hrs watching on TV.
It looks like Phil’s taught himself to never make eye contact, dedication
He looks like he has eye focusing problem.
You must not have seen him at a poker table lol
Looks like he trained his eyelids to never move involuntarily
Phil lost his eyebrows in a big pot apparently
you won bro, you won
Fuck that was a good one
Omg haha
And his hair too
He looks white
The King is back! Hail to the King!!
Made me smile and made me happy, very nice.
Seems like they are both very good people.
Congratz on all success
Great to see people speaking so highly of one another, we don’t see enough of this in this day and age.
He going for the number 1 net worth position
I'm excited to see his legendary return
What a marvelous interview. I watched these two play during the Poker Boom and admired both greatly. It's wonderful seeing and enduring friendship and the admiration they have for each other. Class acts, both of them.
Phil Ivey interviews are never long enough. I wish he'd do a long form interview. Like Joe Rogan or something. Less make it happen
Yes!!! Phil on JRE would be epic
Absolutely
Yeah if he was on joe rogan that would’ve really cool
Yes!
Not really. Phil talks so boring. Zzzzz
poker has moved on with the development of software, but there will never be another poker player that dominated like Phil Ivey did
well OTB also did in cash, a legend for 10 years. But yeah, ivey did dominated everything lol, that was ridiculous

i love watching this.great interviews.
Every time i See Ivey... I remember durrrs amazing bluf against him :D
The Baby Face Assassin! He was reason why I used to stay up late and watch Poker even though I have no clue how to play.
This is simply epic Greenstein & Ivey. Powerful interview. Breath of fresh air
More interviews by and with Barry Greenstein please!
Love to watch this guy play.
His demeanor and style make
him so unique. He is one of the
few that plays the game like he
is playing the opponent's hand,
rather then his own. In doing this
he eliminates himself as one of
the opponents. Great poker mind.
These have been fantastic. I could watch it for hours
I don’t watch or play poker, yet I still like #PhilIvey
I don't watch or play grinding, yet I still like #grinding
I dont know why, but when Phil talked about Barry it really got to me. Just real geniune words. Damn. I hope I feel that about someone
That last minute comment ivey snuck in was awesome so smooth ...
I would love to see Phil Ivey play Online Poker, and get his reaction to runner runners on there.
Kinda like Danny. :3
He used to be one of the best online players a long time ago
Or at least one of the more feared
Phil probably stays away from the rigged mess that is online poker.....unless its vetted of course. Which at least is happening slowly but surely.
he's actually the biggest online winner
@@ldeue4837 Every online poker player uses some kind of tracker like Pokertracker. There would be solid chart proof of it being rigged in the variance etc. I've got about 2m hands in mine it's obviously not rigged, it's purely random.
Such an odd & random, yet cool & close friendship!
The poker community is so tight. God bless!
Phil is old school, doesn't have to try and be cool, he just is.
Good stuff. You can see the genuine honesty of a poker players response
That was very humble!
Great. Keep going. Wonderful progress in truth and humanity in the poker for poker matadors like us. Thank you.
Jerome AKA Phil good to see you, long long time fan..
Dude Phil Ivey and Durrrr are the most amazing and enjoyable poker players to watch. I replaced them with Andy and Garret from the bike since Ivey and Tom are were out playing huge games around the world.
Too bad Durr has lost almost his entire bankroll to whale Chinese businessmen...his style apparently didnt work in the long term in china..
Man that was really terrific what you guys had to say about one another, great to see that.
Quality content!!!!!!!!!!! I've never seen Phil so open before
You gotta love these guys.
Very interesting. Thanks a lot for this videos!!
A even more nuanced and inspired Phil Ivey is something I can’t wait to see 😈
The most terrified I’ve seen Ivey was when he had to say what Barry means to him.
lol brilliant
Nope. When he had to answer what Barry means to him. While Barry sits beside him and listens to him say it in third person
beautiful end. welcome back Phil
it's way easier to be philosophical about life when you have plenty of money and life is comfortable !
So true man
Location: Executive Hospitality Suite at the Aria
Good eye.
wow, I didn't realized about 3-4 minutes, that is is Greenstein! :D
Can we please get a pod with Joey were both Phil and Barry are on, the stories that would bring, oh my...
Really good quality interviews, keep them coming 👍
yeah boi, hope you have a much happier stance at the table in the forthcoming days
I like how the only way Phil would do an interview was if it was with his buddy Barry.
This was awesome! Really enjoyed it guys. Thank you.
At Barry's funeral they will say: "Barry was a good guy, wasn't he....anyway, what time's the poker game tonight?"
And Barry will look up and be smiling, thinking "Mark sure you bring your A Game tonight, try not to think about me during the game, there'll be plenty of time to think about me between games."
He will be looking down, not up. But I think that it what you meant.
i knew that voice and face look familiar. Barry Greenstein has aged. always enjoyed his game ! LEGEND!
I look up to Phil. He is an ambassador of poker and a boss. I remember I said he was the tiger woods of poker before it was said alot. I like how humble he is..these video's are inspirational

love these two legends.
Phil Ivey is the Michael Jordan of poker
His talent + hard work + willingness to risk it all/gamble + luck is how he got to where he is.
Love both these guys #RoleModels #Legends
Thumbnail did him dirty
I am going to tell Lex Veldhuis that Phil is finally no longer angry at Barry
Like- if you know what I am referring to
"they both look like kids caught with their hand in the cookie jar" paraphrased -Gabe Kaplan c ;
@@d4ba19 haha ''they both look like suspects''
Lol I remember the exact hands ....i think...

Lex is a fraud, heavily sponsored by PS.
@@mavericiyo5203 He has a nice job
The ways in which his eyes act while he's having a thought, shows how deep he goes into that thought.
thanks Phil i learnered a lot from this video

Phils been hitting the red wine by the look of his mouth
I was thinking the same thing.
He’s not the only one
Barry turned me from being a average player to a winning player what a legend of a man
Really honest words especially from Phil
Phil Ivey 45 years old and still cool. Let’s win some more bracelets Phil😎
Two great talking about great things.
Few poker players I’d actually like to meet but these are the two for sure.
Welcome back Phil
i never woulda guessed they were this close.
Barry aged pretty damn good! Looking sharp man! 😉
Phil Ivey. Sound man.
Amazing interview
Wow nice video phil 🤗
Wow this is really amazing!
This is amazing thanks for the insight!
Hi, Nice to see Ivey today! Its PokerKing skin of WinningPokerNetwork?
Barry’s fire for sweet Asian ladies > Phil’s fire for poker!
Fantastic video!
These are awesome!
Barry looks younger here then he does at poker after dark (dem guys don't sleep!)
They both have gained weight.
TWO LEGENDS
I wanna wedding invite. Who would have thought.... 😂
Great video series in all seriousness. This is one of the very few times you will see Phil open up in this way.
Both legends.
I wonder if there was a bet between the two of them as to who could show up with the least hair?
Phill Ivey is so slick, always has been
The best poker player in the whole world period hes the Michael Jordan of poker and I would agure with anyone that he's the best all around poker player in the world its amazing how well he plays every hand its mind boggling
I can get behind that. But then I'd put Daniel as Larry Bird.
I think he’s more lucky. I think Dnegs is two notches above Phil
