I doubt he's playing poker at a higher level than yourself, so I'll entertain this for a moment. What plays are you referring to? Please also explain why they are fishy.

Phil tweeted his graph for the last sess (https://twitter.com/PhilGalfond/stat...288577/photo/1)

Btw, do they get the HH quicker than we do? Thought I usually have to wait 24 hours and mine are anonymized as well.


Edit: What do I have to add after clicking on the twitter-icon here on 2+2 in order to embed the tweet?

Isn't nearly half as fun to me, an occasional viewer, to watch the stream without the graph
I'll stop bitching now

I (think) some people were asking for me to post spreadsheets on this challenge like I did for the one against VeniVedi. TBH, I haven't been watching this one as much since there isn't a huge comeback taking place, but I'll still try to post the results for this one.

All the session numbers are gathered from the official RunItOnce tracking webpage.



Winnings are from Galfond's point-of-view obviously.

**EDIT** Ninja Edited the image because I didn't adjust the BB/100 numbers for the stakes increase

Nope, that didn't work. Any decent converters for PP Omaha hands?

**There is a 2 hand discrepancy between the overall hands played (8054) and the sum of hands played in the individual sessions on the official RunItOnce site. My sheet uses the sum of the individual sessions (8056 hands total played).

There has been slight variations in the hands played and winnings in the past and they seem to adjust them at a later date.

oh yes cause your "standard" way of playing is so much optimal. As if "standard" hasn't already been common even in small stakes. Please, don't use your 5 year ago GTO to evaluate Phil's play.

If you have seen how Libratus de_stroyed all the standard HU pros by using werid "fishy" plays then you will understand you are the fish instead.

Also is AF just gonna act dumb and play the rest of the challenge on Party?
He is a HS pro who won on Stars and Party and it's 2020, moving money a challenge? PG has gotta man up and tell AF as it is.

Curious what people think of this hand. I don't play PLO really at all but the 4b and pot flop seems very aggro from Phil

Uhh, yeah. He's playing 150/300, anyone who reaches that stakes (as a winning player) is gonna be crazy aggro.

It's a pretty standard hand all around.

Flop is certainly standard, Phil is potting range on that flop. All draws are pretty much committed anyway and overpairs can't really fold after a smaller sizing due to possibility of villain combo draw.

Preflop is reasonable with a solid double-suited hand, but I'm a bit hesitant to call it standard. There should already be ds rundowns and ace-blocker hands for our 4bet bluffing range, if we're 4betting this type of hand more often than not we're probably 4betting too often IMO.

It's not standard. Preflop as well as flop could very well go differently.

Some brutal hands at the end of the session - Phil maybe down 58k today?

Grats on your anniversary Phil & Farah! It was mine a couple of days ago.

Eponymous is working on a converter for PP challenge hands. Unless anyone knows of one that works?
