Default Re: Has anyone read \"Kill Phil\"?

The point of "Kill Phil" is that it is a strategy to compete against fields where you would otherwise be an underdog, like the WSoP. The theory is that a strategy in which most of your moves are "all-in" may not be the best strategy, but it doesn't give up much to the field, and is very hard to defend, especially by the best. It's probably a good strategy to autoplay tournaments, and it works pretty well.

In my opinion, most people on this site wouldn't want to use it until they reach Harrington's "Orange Zone". The philosophy is that you want to avoid small confrontations when you and others have big stacks under the assumption that if you are using this book, that your opponent is a better post-flop player than you. If that's not the case, you probably don't want to use it.
