so annoying when they say ‘they figure to do it a GOOD 70/80% of the time

Doubt you ever come on here phil, but quick question. If you think he is going to bluffing 100% of his air here b/c he perceives the Adi of to be the ultimate scare card, then wouldn’t it make sense, for him, against a player like you to, to also vbet 100% of his K’s and J’s to balance the amount of bluffs in his percieved range? Basically, if he knows that you know that he will be bluffing a ton here, doesn’t that give him cause to vbet as thin as possible?

great advice to be giving new poker players.LMAO.Call all the wy down to the river with your underpair if you think your opponent is too agressive.There will be morons who will take this advice and lose all they’re money trying to make hero calls like this.To be honest i think it is horrible play,how often ,at any stake are you ever gonna be god on that board with tha hand,against that action.poor.

itr real.. he played it, recorded it.. and went back and post-commented on it

fake play doesn’t mean it’s set up. how do you think they can set up the cards being dealt on full tilt? lol.
when they say fake play they mean they are not playing returning each other the money later. but for the purpose of the video they will each play their best.

Well in my view is standard because he’s playing it for set value. It all depends who you play. Im no one to give a « philosophy » or to instruct im just 17, but yeah Phil played it perfectly. I really liked the way he used the Ace to his advantage cause if he had King, it would of been played differently or if Jack. At 1st i put him on Q-9 but it he showed the 8-6.

I was in a situation like this against a LAG last night, not as strong of a hand though, and if I went through the thought process that Phil does I would’ve made the right decision and a great play imo. Ugh, Phil’s philosophical view towards the game is extremely helpful though and how easy he makes it understood.
Would like to hear more about a sample hand in PLO too.

what does he mean by fake played? im just a little confused how they make this as an example when its real money.
really really enjoy the vid though on how to pick apart a 3-barrel bluff

Im sure phil is right but why is the c/c standard on the flop? im just reading sklansky and he says OOP with a marginal hand its usually better to bet, plus we give him the chance of taking a free card and spiking a 8,9,T,J,Q.A. so basically we give him the option of imprving for free and if he has a K he was going to bet anyway. if he doesnt it makes it hard for him to raise us. thoughts?

This is a perfect example: I had 66 in multiway pot where LAGTARD raises on button, with T9s flop [KK2] , LAGTARD bets I call , turn [4] bets pot, i call . River [A] villan goes all-in and I FOLD (Yes I folded) THAT was the mistake b/c the A is taking away lots of value bets(QQ, JJ, TT etc) so its more likely to be bluffing. Phil Galfond would called and the rest of us wouldnt, and thats why he makes $7million a year and we dont. You see the point now?

I’m a good poker player. I mean, I tough being a good one before seeing that
