I remember watching this back in the day. There was no feelings of "this guy is nervous" or "what a nit". I didn't even remember that you mucked half the pot. All I remember was being inspired that a 22-year-old self-made guy could be playing for hundreds of thousands vs legends. That was mind-boggling to me at the time. Guys like yourself and Dwan undoubtedly inspired a generation of future professional poker players. You guys are legends!

Hi Phil. Takes a lot of guts to share this but i am so glad you did. So many times one’s nerves get the better of themselves, especially at such a stage. Took me a while just to get the live poker, forget live poker on live television. What i take away from this is that once we sit down to play anywhere, forget the cameras and the attention and just focus on trying to play your game without worrying about looking stupid. :) i think it gets worse if we worry about it .

[@tomf5823]

thanks for the video. and at least you learn from the experiences. way to many online grinders still don't get it when they play live. granted playing on tv/stream is different but at the end of the day they should be fun for their customers to play with. this was a really interesting time to be in poker but a lot of the older players really didn't understand how much they actually didn't know about nl strategy. but the younger players didn't get poker is best as a social game. i also can't believe how young you look- i'm only a couple of years older than you and seeing this makes me feel old as hell!

[@PhilGalfond]

Well put about how each side didn't understand the other at that time (and about how young I look!)

[@dohpe-]

Great comment! So true that there are so many players that just aren't fun to play with, both good and bad. It's certainly better played as a social game and a much better watch that way. We knew Sammy was a fish, but he was fun to watch! Laak was smart enough to be entertaining while he was nitting it up, making it seem like he was more action.

[@tomf5823]

@@PhilGalfond It's also interesting you were nervous b/c you were on tv (which I can understand) and not bc of the stakes. I remember watching and thinking it was the money that had you nervous not knowing you played bigger online. Andrew Robl also looked super nervous playing on TV around that time and really looked like scared money. Meanwhile today he basically plays 1 car/ 2 car NL.

[@Tom-hn5hn]

Love this. I’ve watched High Stakes Poker from start to finish at least 5-6 times and have always wondered what players thought in the moment/what their experience was like. Would love other players to do this, obviously it might be hard to remember for some but would love to see Dwan to give it a go!

Never thought you were "bad" for TV poker as implied. When i saw the episode aired, I found your appearance more inspirational and intriguing to me seeing a young player making it to play the best. You, dwan, elky, lex and others stuck out from the online crowd from your appearance being so young then and your names continue to be relevant today. Actually if you didnt show up to the show, you could have passed by the wind in poker like Hac Dang and others who werent fortunate enough to ever get invited.

I remember when this originally aired - there was The 2+2 Poker Cast had scheduled themselves so that they put up a show the day after each episode of HSP aired and they'd talk about it and dissect the show... originally they were pretty excited that Phil Galfond was going to be on the show, kind of like "one of their own" had made it (an online player and reg to the 2+2 forums). But that evaporated after the episode aired... even Mike and Adam had little positive to say about Phil "I Fold" Galfond's appearance on the show.

@@PhilGalfond Your conclusion hit the mark. It was a TV show. They wanted "personalities". They also wanted the feel of a "home game" or of a "local game".

Great video, Phil! Loved the insight. I remember even when I first watched this episode of HSP and I didn't know a lot about you, I thought Gabe Kaplan was being a little unfair, especially about the QQ on the Kxx diamonds board that you folded. Your play was pretty standard as you said. The commentary felt like a combination of results-oriented and narrative-driven. Easy to use it as a marker of you being just some online kid out of your element in the "big leagues" -- even though if a beloved live pro played the hand exactly the same as you the commentary would have been entirely different. I guess that's the name of the game, but it bugged me then and still a little bit now. And I think for a lot of us this video represents such a relatable feeling, whether in the world of poker or outside of it. You know you're good enough at something, maybe even far better than most, but everything just goes wrong and you end up looking bad. Good reminder that it happens to the best of us, and it's just another obstacle on the road to success!

[@PoppysGuitar]

I remember being a young player in Vegas. I had kings there was some betting. I check the river and my opponent tosses his cards in the air in front of the dealer. One card turns over and the other remains concealed but they land in front of the dealer. The dealer starts to sweep the chips towards me and I push my hand forward and the opponent says, "it's my pot he mucked his hand!" I say "Wait, I thought you mucked" and I reach over in front of the dealer and show my kings. The dealer says to me, "no you mucked your hand" and sweeps the pot to the opponent. I didn't know enough to question what had happened but I always remember feeling like I got angled. Looking back it was only $135.00 dollar pot lol but I never forgot it.

[@skyeangelofdeath7363]

It was a "poker show" indeed. I remember even Dwan was very silent and he was just sitting there, playing his game. What worked for dwan was his insane play style that put everyone on their toes. He was raising like crazy (which is pretty common in modern poker today) and bluffing like a boss. I like your insight, it came really unexpected and it changed the way I look at that show.

[@Studgunners]

Do you think it's better to play "exciting TV poker" and lose money but maybe create a different revenue stream and also set yourself up as a wild man for bigger non-televised cash games or to play "normal poker" and try to win like every other non-televised session for the most part?
