Op de laatste dag van juli kwam de website Subject Poker met geheime inside informatie over het leen gedrag van Phil Ivey. Bij velen waren er enige twijfels over de betrouwbaarheid van deze informatie maar die twijfels lijken op dit moment weg te zijn.

In de uitgebreide PDF aanklacht valt een passage te lezen over 23 personen die ook dividend/bonussen van Full Tilt Poker hebben ontvangen. Namen worden er niet genoemd maar een van de omschrijvingen is redelijk duidelijk:

Subject poker:

The amended complaint refers to another professional poker player and owner who has not been sued as "Player Owner 1″ who has received $40,078,646.6 in dividends and millions in loans, at least $4.4 million of which have not been repaid. This is almost certainly Phil Ivey.

Aanklacht:

Despite the fact that, by early 2011, Full Tilt Poker was severely insolvent, it continued making payments of approximately $10 million per month to its owners up to and including April 1, 2011. Full Tilt Poker also continued making "loans" to its professional poker players who also owned an interest in the company, including loan payments totaling more than $2,000,000 to Player Owner 1 between August 2010 and January 2011.

Subject Poker:

This confirms that FTP was insolvent before Black Friday, a theory that Subject: Poker has been working to prove definitively for months. It also confirms that owners continued to pay themselves large amounts of money ($10 million per month) long after the company had become insolvent.

With this additional information, we can also confirm beyond reasonable doubt that "Player Owner 1″ is Phil Ivey.

$40,078,646.6 in dividends and millions in loans

De bovenstaande $40 miljoen die Phil Ivey ontving van Full Tilt Poker is niet verder gespecificeerd naar dividend/bonussen en naar persoonlijke leningen. De laatste stand van zaken is dat Ivey in ieder geval nog $4.4 miljoen in het rood staat qua leningen bij Full Tilt Poker.
