Phil Galfond Real Session (2)

I like the half and half videos. I am a PLO player and prefer str8 PLO videos but this is also interesting.

As a strictly NLHE player, I obviously prefer all NLHE. The problem with half and half is that both sides are losing out. You have to "dumb down" the PLO talk because of the NLHE players and tbh, the NL games get ignored a little. I would love to see you play 6 max under a different account name; if you are sitting at 600NL, people kind of know you are making a video and know you are. If there is an ethical concern, maybe refund losses to players? At 600 or 400, that's not even a big blind :)

I'm mainly a NLH player, but like to throw in a bit of PLO every now and then. Agree that both "camps" are losing out on the half-and-half videos, but think they are fine from time to time as a bit of inspiration to try out a new game. I'm watching your PLO videos as well anyways, as they are brilliant and I feel like they are are helping out my overall understanding of poker more than any other content on the net. Would also like to see you return to your philosophy series at some point :).

100% nlhe player. Prefer watching 100% nlhe videos

100% nl player and prefer full nl videos but these are certainly watchable.

ty for the work phil

100% plo player, never really learned NLHE so these videos are definitely interesting.

90% PLO 10% NLHE I played NLHE for 3 years and started PLO about 6 months ago. I now enjoy playing PLO much more than NLHE even if I try to play sometimes to not get too rusty.

Mostly i play NL, but i start learning PLO. I think that this kind of videos are awesome.

100% PLO player right now - converted from NLHE in late 2009. I love this mixed format. This way I don't get too rusty in case I want to go back to Holdem some day...

My vote is for high stakes PLO. The videos are excellent! Your ability to clearly analyze and explain complex situations is much appreciated. Please keep up the great work.

really enjoy the half and half videos....i play no limits and have only stuck my toe in the plo pool a few times i definitely enjoy learning about PLO in this venue, getting NL too at same time is an added bonus. I guess also it would be cool if you did like a PLO series with NL players in mind

I have enjoyed the half NL/PLO vids and have started playing PLO primarily because of these videos. Even for NL players with not much PLO experience like me, you should still be sharing advanced PLO concepts because that helps quicken the learning curve and also keeps the PLO-only players happy. Thanks for the vid.

I play 100% NLHE. While watching you play PLO is a bit entertaining it is not educational for me at all. A lot of the concepts you teach I can never put into practice so I forget it. Plus I don't know what is standard in PLO to make sense of what you are doing. Therefore PLO is a bunch of dead space and the NLHE content gets watered down. I would much prefer waiting 2 weeks for one full NLHE video than watch a half and half video for two weeks in a row.

Hey Phil. I've been playing NLHE for about 2 years and recently started playing the lowest stakes possible in plo. Thanks for the video. Keep up the good work.

I'm a NL player, but this format is fine. At worst, if and when I start playing PLO, I'll be familiar with some advanced concepts/thinking patterns even though they probably won't be entirely applicable at the stakes I'll play in order to get my feet wet. More knowledge is better than less, so just do whatever makes you more enthusiastic about teaching.
