Galfond is a gangster though. He made lots of money playing poker. Then came back and challenged poker world to hu PLO, shopped for weakest opponents, beat them all, then went ahead and played private HU match 2 times vs top notch HU player and was v competitive in it.
If I was a coach and both Jnandez and Galfond offered me a same value deal, I would rather go work for runitonce.com
But maybe Jnandez is an incredible guy and it's extreme pleasure to work for him, and that's why people stay loya
Is this referring to AmSoGood, or is there a private Galfond challenge that happened that we don't know about?
I mean the quality of product and market opportunity.
He is the guy that enjoyed coaching, and was on other site as a hired coach and then successfully given market opportunity created his own coaching site with a good marketing? Congratz to him
Just saying if there was smart people that actually wanted to run high quality poker site, they could probably compete. Though hiring smart coaches wouldn't be easy.
I thought you said commercially available sims are good, what's wrong with his product then?
Based on what you are writing here, you wouldn't come off as boring at all. It's quite refreshing to hear some shots fired for some of these guys on the top. If you feel like you prefer to write instead of talking, create an AMA here, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would prefer that over a 2-3 hour podcast.
What made asian flushie so tough that even BERRI was struggling against him?
They would have been playing two card and I believe AF is considered one of the best HUNL in the world.
Yeah, in 2019 there was like 5-7 month period when Isildur would come to Partypoker tables and would 10 table 20k stakes. It was great games. (not dropping any more graphs I think, it's getting old)
Bad read bud, besides maybe one or two salty misregs Id say all of us are very pro-Grazygraphs. Doesnt matter if its lifetime, site specific, year specific etc, I'd say we happily will look at them all haha.
Where abouts in the world are you these days? I saw you mention you spent some time in Brazil, do you have a "home base" and then travel around staying in different spots or typically like to be in a city for a longer duration of time?
Any desire to ever go on one of those live streams somewhere?
if you mean EEE27, yes he can come play 3 handed with us and we can keep it going for a while.
I don’t know where your hate comes from, but I’d like to remind you that over the years, it was me who tried to get you to play a 3-4 handed challenge match, even offering you few bb/100 handicap. You declined every time.
And what comes to Veni, think he was ready too.
Impressive results tho, well done
Bang

Gravy in the tank
Best hsthread ever
Not suprised he declined, Gravy aint no heavyweight.
That’s rich coming from the guy posting cool milly graphs. Takes one to know one I guess.
Thats some proper gas lighting. Most of us are here for the trash talk, the banters, the memes and the graphs. Would imagine 99.9% of people find it really interesting to see the top guys graphs.
So this is what drives the hs games.... ego... got it
'Ego' is the hater word for it

EEE with a **** you and receipts. This thread is pure gold lmao
Hoe, you fool, that's covid19 years and crazy games. Plus Venividi at that point was in a same stable (my stable) so I couldn't do that 3handed, and I wouldn't have done it because I am getting paid more in other games.
Keep folding BB 40% hu and claiming that you beat the best player hu.
Post your lifetime 6max graph, so we can see that amazing winrate of yours.
I love poker. 😀
love the drama
can only be solved with 200/400 HU match
all bark no bite
