Phil Galfond Hand Review

I take my hat off to you sir. Your analysis and don's sick creative degeneracy made this video truely epic.

now that i've thought about it i can see why potting can be dramatically better in those spots where we think our opponents thinks we have the nuts or nothing. since we're trying to get our villian to do the opposite of what he would of done if he could see our cards so potting can apply maximum pressure to ensure more folds and can ensure maximum gain when we get payed off.

hand history reviews = the nuts. Keep em coming phil.

I also thought don's line wasn't consistent with the hand he was trying to rep but the sicko made a sick hero crying call because of his line so wp by don

Great review, Phil. Has Don given you any feedback on your analysis? I would love to hear/read his thoughts on those lines too. Again, casting a vote for videos on whatever game you feel like doing. They are always great, and I play both games. I do think the edge in PLO is larger right now, and gaining perspective on that game probably has more value, $ wise. But Hold 'em vids are great too. Focusing on whatever you are feeling at the time seems to be the best recipe for a great vid. Thx!

I find it sad that Phil is concentrating almost exclusively on PLO now. I have a feeling that i am not alone with this opinion.

Excellent video. Keep the PLO coming!

These are probably the best videos because you probably cover more interesting spots in these then you would in even a 4 tabling 5/10 xx video and get more time to talk about each hand in depth. I'm sure most of us have a good handle on general pre and post strategy which diminishes the value of a regular video and if someone doesn't there is plenty of videos on that already. Obviously, you won't want to be doing this type of video all the type though as it would be get boring.

cont... so if the villain gives Don any credit, he'll know that Don won't auto bet air and is likely to check back hands with weak showdown value (given the pot odds, he can't expect the villain to fold anything but air after checking the river...and a lot of the time villain would bet with air)...i know this is a bit of a ramble...but if my line of thought does makes sense then...against a thinking player like Don, the villain should be betting thin for value not trying to check to induce
