i literally stopped beacuse of this episode.

What i love the most about this is the raw honesty about the mistakes you made this session. For example the kind of entitlement tilt you had when thinking "i can just outplay these guys postflop" when you called the 4 bet with K5 off. Not so many players of your caliber is able to show that kind of humility-lots of respect for that attitude.

I remember watching this and thinking that you can't get a break. Alot of times you were just running super cold and that last hand with K5 and the case K comes is just so brutal. Always enjoy your content, you are a fantastic player and a better human being.

Really love your videos Phil. Would love to see more live play from current times, PLO especially. Series with Jungleman was the best!

I mean you hate to see Phil lose a ton of money, but watching Phil watch himself lose a ton of money *with a smile on his face* is gold

Your honesty is appreciated Phil, keep up the entertaining videos!

The realest poker KZreadr out here….everyone else is a WANNA BE “PRO” or just a douchebag scammer you will always have my sub and likes 👍

I love these videos. Super interesting to get a candid review of your old games. Also a good reminder that everyone makes mistakes, which we can all learn from. Still kind of hurt from donking off a few min buy ins on a game I’m not familiar enough with, been trying to build my confidence and study before I play anything again. I could watch these all day long

I remember watching this live, not knowing much about Phil, but was wondering how he was a winning poker player. He really punted hard.

Very fun and informative to see you comment on your past self, thanks!

Lol just remembered that time years ago on 2+2 when some guy called you Phil Gandolf. I'm disappointed that name never caught on! 😄

Great content. People can justify any calls, I.e. the 9/7 vs Daniel. Cmon man!

I was playing in this game from home and I was remember thinking how brilliant it was for Lex and Phil, players I didn't know anything about, to be playing on HSP. Yeah you dropped 400k but you were in the game, playing the best live poker had to offer on the most popular poker show and you were playing without fear. Skill, bankroll, and youth... You might of lost at poker that day but you sure were killing it at life- -PG for President-

Nice that you're honest. I think you were starstruck mate. When you're at the felt you need to zone out of the knowledge that you're playing against big players. Play your game and nobody else's! You obviously have the knowledge, now apply it with focus and you'll be fine. Best of luck buddy.

Very entertaining video. Keep it up Phil!

It's partially true. Players are not divided by skills like any other sports. If you do good table selection you can play with bad players anyway no matter how the players has improved in general.

Can you comment on the statement Doyle made in your QQ hand. "I dont count my chips for anybody" why do you think he said that? Also interesting that people must ask for a chipcount all the time, but he choose to say something at that moment

For as active as you were that was a good fold with that full house. Eli with that bet (check, I don’t have anything) big river bet, yea that jus never looks like a bluff even tho plenty of people will snap that lol

The play with 10, 2 is a mystery

Sometimes you're the nail, sometimes you're the hammer.

How did you deal with that kind of loss and still be able to play in the future? I’d be so tilted and disappointed

I've been playing poker for about as long as you have and I think it's funny how even the best players at the time were so terrible compared to our understanding of the game now. Not talking about you obv

Mike Matusow with that “David Benyamine ladies and gentlemen” after he scoops the pot 😒 hate when people say dumb, unnecessary shit after someone wins the pot, like he had top 2 wasn’t even bluffing when he raised, guy can’t call $60k more unless he’s playing bad or ahead, so yea he won the pot pretty easily he don’t need you to celebrate for him

"If you look at the other players and see no fish, you are the fish" did you see a fish at the table this day, phil?

I'm a little confused about Doyle saying he doesn't count his chips for anybody; someone could just ask the dealer and the dealer would have to count and tell them so it seems to only serve to slow down the action.

It’s a way for people to get information from you. How fast are you counting ?? Are your hands shaking ?? Is your voice high ?? Anything to gain data to determine if they put more chips in or not.

Great Phil ❤

4:03 That is a stupid raise by DB. There is no flush draw out there. It is the board to just call. However Elezra's raise on the flop in the first hand was a good one since there was a FD.

Nothing quite like running into boat after boat against aggressive players.

This is rough

Gotto love it when you play aggressive and find yourself betting into the nuts all the time. Happens to the worst of us.

"Life is not how hard you can hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and get up over and over again."

Remember when Polk went on that rant about Ben Tollerene, that was hilarious. he went on about how Ben would complain about taking pieces of Galfond. Idk why I just remembered that. Doug can be such a Karen. Complaining about stupid stuff like Ben sitting him and using his strategy he taught him in short stack lol.

i wouldn't call these mistakes. If you play perfect gto poker you wont' get invited so you had to "donk off" so you get invite which is exactly what you did.

HEY I’M BORED, LET ME DIG FOR SOMETHING I DID 15 YEARS AGO 😂

Tbf these games don’t really need 9 rocks there nitting up whole night

Dude what hands are you playing bro

How did u fold that king on the last hand lol, like he would never have QQ there, there was only AA,KK or 9x that beat you

legend

"You will stop caring what other people think of you when you realise how seldom they do" - table image is perhaps the most over rated aspect of poker and most of the time players are not thinking of you as a tight guy who would never bluff.

This feels like betting on black 5 times in a row while red as already come in 10 times in a row. Just a bad run.

Not sure y benjamin raised….shoulda flat called hahaha

You shoulda called with that flush draw gettin 2 to 1. It was coming. Someone called me with a flush draw gettin worse odds and hit so there’s no way you was gonna 🧱 that draw. Win that pot and it might change your whole life

Pressure to play hands never works in your favour

So this is essentially along the lines of paying a shit-ton of cash to have lunch with Buffett. You go there willingly obligating yourself to play super loose...accepting the high likelihood of it tending you toward -EV (game-wise)...for the pleasure of playing high stakes with some big names. Still, there's a small chance the deck hits you. I think I can understand that as a valid justification. But the 400k loss (or whatever actual piece of it you have) certainly would need to represent only a tiny fraction of overall net worth.

Legend.

Don't worry, its only money. We have all lost the rent money bro.

You were thinking too much in high stakes poker. All these players were underbluffing and you could get away with overfolding but you still decided to make calls.

Bro I’ve been playing poker my entire life and you are thinking too much at the table. You need to loosen up and be present. And I don’t mean play loose. You do that well enough. K 5 off 🤦‍♂️

Lol they do not want phil on HSL, he will only extract money out that game. He isnt a full ring monkey like Polk

Phil is obv a great player, but he played pretty bad on this season of HSP.
