Poker Dealer Shot Takes Against PLO Legend Phil Galfond

Phil Galfond has been crushing online pot-limit Omaha (PLO) games for more than a dozen years, but that doesn't stop others from giving him action. Take, for example, a poker dealer accustomed to playing low-stakes games who decided to step up to the plate and compete in a heads-up battle against one of the best ever.

The player, who plays on WSOP.com under the screen name "ChristIsLord," needed the power of God behind him in a sort of David-versus-Goliath match of $50/$100 pot-limit Omaha. Okay, perhaps that's a bit of an exaggeration given the small sample size nature of the one-off competition.
