i think perry ment that phil doesnt really care about the braclet and he just want to win the most money, he didnt ment that he wasnt going for the win.
anyway he was wrong, since i read somewhere that phil said that he really want to win a braclet and it will be really cool to win one this year.

"He has a 6". "You have to use two cards from your hand" "But, he has a 6"

ESPN is choosing to only air one PLO event, the 10k. Hopefully, the "free rebuy" in last year's 10k will be used again this year, which should help top pros get to the FT.

However, ESPN should have known that the 5k with unlimited rebuys has a much higher chance of having star players make the FT. So I think they did make a mistake by choosing the air the 10k over the 5k.

Also, can't believe they missed the 2-7 Draw... a fun game with a guaranteed stacked FT.

LOL Galfondaments

Phil Galfond raised to 60,000 and David Benyamine called from the small blind. The flop was {8-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {3-Spades}. Benyamine checked, Galfond bet 110,000, Benyamine folded and Galfond won the pot. He showed {7-?} {8-?} for two pair.

lol, I love pokernews

That was just too embarrassing and cringeworthy.

Had to turn the volume down.

What I mean is that Phil plays in cash games that can have swings the size of first place. I don't think he is most concerned with the payday and is playing for the bracelet.

"Online poker is different than live poker...they can make those big bets online, but in person its completely different."

Anyone else being tilted by the negreanu-sounding guy? He does not know anyone in the final table.
