Cliff:

• Phil is sick while making this video
• We can choose our bluff frequencies base on our blockers @8:00
• Remember slow play turns into no play
• 3 bet KK22 flop AKA, check that
• Blockers, blockers, it’s all about them blockers
• Phil thinks he is more of a nit now than before because how nitty live PLO is nowadays
• When we don’t have the nuts and we know they don’t have the nuts neither, the effective nuts changes, therefore we can value bet wider
• When you have so little air in your range, don’t bet too thin @48:00
• Bet smaller to get them value shove worse @52:30
• Phil not paying attention to stack size and still wins @57:40

Fantastic video !!! Personally I like to see you play high stake against badass regs much much more than see you ghosting on Bovada.

Thank you very much, please bring us more of this match.

yay

NL please super Phil (hopefully i dont get a lot of hate from the PLO guys here), just to balance things out we need your exploitative approach to the game in NL.. by the way Mr Phil what happened with Sean Lefort? oh man please dont tell me you fired one of the bigger beast the poker world have have ever seen making a video so far... i mean if my opinion is worth it at lease a bit here, your top trainers are .
1- Sean Lefort - Teunuss (very even up) for first,
3nd- Ben Sulsky
4th -the boss Mr Phil Galphond (would be higher on the list if he made more NL videos ;)
5th- Daniel Devores.
ok that`s my humble opinion and i hope i did not upset the PLO guys with my request, thank you have a beautiful week and cheers Mr Galfond .

lmao

Past Phil was spot on compared to after WSOP Phil. :)

I'm personally enjoying the Apotheosis vids, and would like to see that continue if possible.

Hi Phil. Thanks for the video, good stuff, as usual. At 25:17, you delay cbet KK22 on AKhAh9 on the top right table, he calls turn and folds an offsuit 4 river when you lead again. My question's about your sizing: you went for 60% on the turn and 50% on the river, which seems normal enough, but sizing on paired boards is a common talking point in your recent videos, and you've been going much smaller.

So the most obvious difference is that on AKA there are no overpairs to include in your two street value range, and Kx doesn't need much protection. Are you not betting the underpairs on this board, or just balancing them by taking the smaller sizing with some percentage of AK/AA? Maybe - you're both going to have trips+ somewhat more often on AKA than on J33 (not entirely sure how much more often heads up) but that doesn't seem a big enough reason to exclude several classes of hands ("anything with hope") from your betting range.

Clearly, check-bet-bet is a different line than bet-bet-decide, but I'm not sure this should impact your sizing so much because your sizing is predicated mostly on the card removal effects of the board type. AKA seems to lend itself to your attack-with-range(ish) strategy particularly well because there are no overcards, and very few backdoor possibilities. I could keep rambling, but I think I've said enough :) and my question boils down to: why did you deviate from your usual, nonpolarizing paired board sizing strategy in this hand?

More heads up, please. And again, great video.

Hi Phil! Nice video!

I have the same question than John with the delayed Cbet in AAK.
· Min 11, hand QQTJ in flop Q54, I think his range is so polarized, so we should do an smaller size like 2.8k, and we still can jump the turn also. I think his range only has really strong made hands or strong combo draws hands, and semibluffs that are almost dead. I don’t see a hand that we want to pot, after a raise here.
· Min 37, hand TJ7K at turn we are betting 1/3. I don’t understand why. I think at this size all the draws are getting a good prize, so we don’t get protection to our overpairs. If we want to bet in this spot we should bet bigger IMO.
· Min 41, I agree leading on river, but maybe not with this hand, that we are blocking nut straight. Also, I think that a lot of hands that call our donk will call our XR.

Thanks for the video! Regards! :))

@ 14:20 with the QQJT, you talk about the sizing of your flop 3bet being kind of interesting. You suggest having a smaller sizing (2800ish) where you could include some bluffs to counter the fact that when Lars raises that flop, he's polarized.

What type of hands would we include in that bluff range specifically? I assume having a Q blocker would be fairly important as would maybe the Ac blocker? I'm just curious what specific hands we would want to bluff with in that spot. Thanks!

More of this plz!!!
