Real Time Assistance, online poker bots, and other forms of collusion all have a negative effect on the game of poker.

You aren’t going to get away from it by switching from no limit hold ’em to pot limit omaha, and you aren’t going to get away from it by switching from playing unregulated or private app games to playing on regulated poker sites.

As Phil states in the video- regulated poker sites have some advantages in fighting poker bot rings or poker collusion rings or other forms of poker cheating that you might not be aware of.

Thankfully, while we also can’t ‘escape’ solvers, the effect that something like a solver has on the game is not the same as the above mentioned topics as Phil explained.

Your online PLO game or your live NL game can greatly improve by working with solvers but you are not going to be able to accurately memorize everything a solver does. Basically as long as it isn’t used for RTA, a solver is really just a good tool to learn with.

  1. The day Mr. Galfond decided to start posting vids on YouTube was a pretty good day. Thank you

  2. Great video.

    How do you think country-wide regulated online poker in the US would affect live poker?

    I've been having this conversation at the table a lot and am curious to hear your take

  3. I remember playing against the Bot Liberatus. not sure if that site is still around but it would let you play against there bot. Was literally impossible too win in Limit holdem. As long as one of these bots or programs don't make there way into casinos~~~

  4. Don't play online, problem solved. You have to be an guy to play online. Cheats, hacks, bots, etc etc.

  5. If I hear that ridiculous rock paper scissors analogy one more time I'm going to have an aneurysm lol

    Otherwise a great video though 👍

  6. killing? that bad is dead not only do you have ai you have full teams now. welcome to poker in 2023

  7. great information as always, keep up the social grind. When's the next Jungleman match?
