You should DEFINITELY make more videos of nosebleed stakes from the golden age of online poker. Hearing your thought process during this time (and prior to Black Friday!) would be a treasure trove of content. Thanks for the video!

[@bradley-9905]

Agree 100%, love watching the old hands and seeing how much the theory/way hands are played has changed

[@bradley-9905]

Maybe some of your live Hold Em hands Phil? If Poker Go will let you use the footage, Lex has been doing something similar.

[@fabizzy9279]

Thanks Phil! More of these old reviews of the battles vs Ivey, Durrrr and Blom please

[@ericigoster7478]

Thanks Phil, that was a really fun throwback. Especially for someone like me, that used to play around that time. Hopefully there are more videos like this.

[@arashparsi9992]

$0.50 rake! You guys had it good back then

[@amicus1242]

Great stuff! Would be nice if you could go a little slower, especially on the tricky hands. Sometimes it's hard to follow the action, and you've moved on to a new hand before the old hand has really registered. Thanks!

[@spuriousnews1466]

You can control the speed of the video directly in KZbin

[@amicus1242]

@@spuriousnews1466 Speed of explanation I meant. More time going over reasoning, thought process.

[@snapbtc1969]

Glad to see you switch it up with the content. Loved the Top 5/Advice style videos but at least for me they were getting a bit stale. I know there's lots of value to them and filled with great advice, especially for strategy but from an entertainment standpoint they can be a bit repetitive.

[@NoWayFolding]

Nice little blast from the past. Yes please more hands from the HH. Very interesting. Loved it!

[@calpoker21]

this is awesome phil pls make a bunch more

[@prakashmahtani6345]

You should do more of these videos... Those were the days... Nose bleeds...

[@chenchen2328]

I have been watching your videos since twelve years ago and you are the best

[@alexisrougecarrassat4517]

Great videos but what do the percentage mean when the hands are not shown ? Is it the probability of winning the hand against any 4 cards ? Thanks !

[@holzberd]

Great content Phil! I'm learning a lot

[@PhilGalfond]

Awesome, thank you!

[@zamanski7094]

Love the old school battles!

[@MegaFefo1]

Thanks Phil that was awesome. If I could give a suggestion, please go a bit slower. I'm a somewhat experienced PLO player and still had trouble following at certain points

[@alenban453]

Great thumbnail Phil! Made me click the video right away. Love how you're getting better and better at the youtube game. Love the content hope it keeps up.

[@celebclips_1]

anyone know the answer to this? I had ace J 10 4 with 2 spades flop comes 10 j q with 2 spades I shove is that a mistake?

[@supertequila]

Best poker content on the tube right now. I am very grateful for this. ❤️

[@CONSTANTINEPOKER]

Hello Phil ! I'm PLO player too :D

[@davidnagy7478]

more blast from the past videos! this was really cool stuff

[@PhilGalfond]

❤️ thank you!

[@topherlins]

I based my whole game around your play that i still use today.

[@CanariasCanariass]

I have no idea about PLO but still I am here:D

[@johnd5619]

very cool! would love to see more vids like this, esp holdem hands.

[@losyart]

Im a NLHoldem player but maybe watching you will inspire me to play more PLO

[@MtnMichael88]

Great stuff Phil! Amazing to think that the crushers of 500/1k couldn’t beat a 2/5zoom pool now. Back then it was 7figure a year skill bc machine learning has showed us Nash equilibrium.

[@AmitSharma-qu7wq]

These are awesome, more please! It's ok to go through the hands fast, but could you try to give more analysis once the pot is awarded (before moving to next hand)? Some of those, we barely get to see who even won the pot on the river. Overall, these are great.

[@omarsalaytah1773]

very nice videos from you Phil, always learning a lot and very fun to watch (4:27 laughed out loud ) ! thx very much for all that you are doing for us

[@artvandelay3375]

8:20 How can it possibly be a good play to fold 2nd nuts on a double flush board to a bet vs an agressive player.

[@davidcapeeko7376]

Great stuff as always! Seeing you delve into old-school play is always interesting. Particularly enjoyed watching what I believe to be some of your mid-session adjustments during in these.

[@ThatWasLoud]

Action moves too fast. Unwatchable

[@apachogaming]

Try watching it in slow motion 😂

[@Zari_OnPaws123]

Great video… showing the hand actions a little slower would be nice.

[@andreblokland4038]

wow $0.50 rake on those pots 🙂

[@edwardhalmarack7122]

Every adaption seems to be a more passive approach. Not sure if it’s the computers or your evolution but I always thought aggression heads up was never a huge mistake. U say bet less or check more seems counter intuitive to me. I preferred the old omgclay mindset of the j4 4 bet any 2 cards 6 max approach to check more bet less 2023 style. Surely if you employ this nifty passive style you need to do it “with moves” light chk raises 3 bets and river bluffs imo.

[@Mike-hb4qz]

The more passive approach on early streets leads to more aggression on later streets, so it's not nittier just that the aggression is more creative than just bet bet bet

[@luckymaggie6594]

How much does rakeback affect your poker decision ?

[@TM-ri3ii]

Transport 2023 Phil back to 2010 and he'd have 4 slides in his penthouse apartment.

[@PhilGalfond]

🤣

[@dimenigma9274]

thanks for sharing Phil. First video I had to watch on 0.75 speed in full. A bit to fast of playing the action but it was not a problem. It would be great to se also some 6max railheaven hands. Especially the mental aspect of it , having this huge money swings. Did you have a stop loss? What was you biggest loosing day and how you dealt with that.

[@PhilGalfond]

Thank you! Great suggestions!

[@burtondavid1054]

Great video PG love to see more like this + some 6-Max hand reviews from back then as well

[@onthebeach8211]

loved this so much

[@Trias805]

I'm curious what was your reason to even decide to play one of the best players in the world head up. Did you believe you had an edge over him? If so, why?

[@Trias805]

(Of course I should ask Patrik Antonius the same question)

[@Osubucknuts]

I enjoyed this. Would like to see mote like this

[@apachogaming]

This is some expensive shit

[@user-cc7rw6lr6l]

Yup more Philly

[@KrattarKrattar]

More of these!

[@knip7095]

why arent you raising enough? that turn raise gives you alot of credibility for you to bluff rivers! you also have so much equity .Ii wouldnt tell a better play what to do unless i felt like it was huge!

[@kstyle1343]

Great videos. keep up the content phil

[@PhilGalfond]

Thanks, will do!

[@aameen1997]

i never realized you were so bad at PLO.

[@eskabor]

The attack of the 624 makes a bunch of sense with the way he was playing especially the hands he was choosing to limp. Nice
