Phil Galfond on Multitabling, Poker Career, and Personal Goals


Phil Galfond, a renowned poker player, shares his thoughts on multitabling and the challenges it presents. He advises that playing multiple heads-up tables is significantly harder than playing multiple 6-max tables. This insight comes from his personal experience, as he finds it difficult to manage more than two heads-up tables against different opponents.

Galfond also discusses his poker career and personal life, mentioning that his friend Jason Koon has a good balance between poker and his personal life. This balance is something Galfond aspires to achieve but finds challenging due to the situation with poker in the USA, which forces him to travel to Canada for online play.

When asked about his enjoyment of teaching poker and building his business, Galfond expresses that he finds both activities very fulfilling. He enjoys the intellectual stimulation that poker provides and the satisfaction of helping others improve their game. Despite the challenges, Galfond continues to be passionate about poker and his educational projects.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
