    VeniVidi was leading most of the way today, but Galfond won at the end, and finished 26k euro ahead.

    He's now 685k euro down at about the halfway mark. He's 3-1 in 4 sessions since returning from the hiatus, after going 1-12-2 in the first 15.

    I really believe something has changed here. I don't think it's just running better or playing with a clearer head, though I'm sure that also helps.

    I think Phil studied his ass off during this time, specifically analyzing the hands he already played, and came up with a counter-strategy, perhaps with the help of friends. Good for him if he successfully accomplished this in such a short time.

    They also had a pre-planned vacation, I believe. Rest helps.

    This could turn out to be the greatest comeback in sports history since Frank Reich stepped in for Jim Kelly to lead the Bills from 32 (!!!) points down to beat the Oilers in overtime back in the 1992 AFC Wildcard game.

    Veni seems to be playing to protect his lead, Rather then trying to crush phil for million plus, I can understand this if they were closer to the finish line, Started limping button etc. More of a small ball style,Although I just started watching last 3 or 4 matches, So Maybe I am missing something

    If he was going to cheat, doesn’t he own the site?

    Yes he does own the site but claimed when asked that he has no access to the software, Plus that really would be cheating but using a solver or being ghosted by a top plo player may not be against the terms they have set, Not sure if they set rules in place regarding ghosting or solvers

    Ok. I guess it’s better to view this as a coaching circle team battle. It’s a bet that you have better software and smarter friends than the guy you’re playing against. I miss the old days, even though that occurred then sporadically. The ghosting and friend part.

    I miss the old days also, I never used a hud in my life and played as high as 200-400 LH on stars, The other day I was listening to a podcast and the guest was talking about playing 5/10 cent and every one uses a hud, lol

    Phil up 150,000 with a hour left, No way he could have made up the skill gap in 8 days off or how ever many they took off, Phil even said if skill gap the days off would make little difference, No doubt now someone is ghosting Phil, Just has to be

    Now people are starting to question the turnaround.

    This is why it's so stupid for these matches to be taking place on Phil's site, especially because others besides Phil have an interest in him succeeding here.

    Galfond wins 110,752 euro today.

    He's now only 383,848 euro behind, and has won over 500k euro since returning.

    This is such an odd situation. I don't know what to say here.
