BetRivers Poker ambassadors Phil Hellmuth and Phil Galfond squared off against each other on March 2 in a $25/$50 cash game on the Pennsylvanian platform. With stacks of $5,000, the format was a heads-up cash game freezeout—no add-ons, no topping up—and two matches were set to go down. In the end, it was Hellmuth who emerged victorious, winning both matches in a clean sweep.

Before the cameras rolled, there was some back-and-forth behind the scenes about which game to play. During his stream, Galfond, a world-renowned heads-up Pot-Limit Omaha specialist, admitted that he had convinced Hellmuth to stick to No-limit Hold’em for the event. Hellmuth was open to playing both formats, but Galfond pushed for Hold’em to create a more accessible live-stream experience for viewers.
