Phil Ivey is 2005 Monte Carlo Millions Champion

MONTE-CARLO, Monaco, Nov. 23, 2005-- Phil Ivey beat out British player Paul Jackson to win the 2005 Monte Carlo Millions.

Ivey took home $1 million and the coveted championship title of the first poker tournament to ever be held in the illustrious Casino de Monte-Carlo. The tournament will be broadcast across the U.S. on FSN and internationally through its broadcast partners in early 2006.

Ivey, a five-time WSOP gold bracelet winner, grew up in New Jersey and began his pro poker career in Atlantic City. In 2000, at the age of 23, he won his first WSOP title besting the likes of Amarillo Slim and Phil Hellmuth in the $2,500 Pot Limit Omaha tournament. He has grown to become one of the most feared and respected poker players in the world.

"It was nice to be a part of this and to play here was amazing. I'm looking forward to coming back next year and defending my title. This has been a superb tournament,'' glowed Ivey.

Here is the final result of the 2005 Monte Carlo Millions:

1. Phil Ivey $1,000,000

2. Paul Jackson $600,000

3. Marc Goodwin $300,000

4. Bengt Sonnert $250,000

5. Richard Herbert $175,000

6. John Juanda $125,000

7. Kenna James $53,000
