Billed as a 'rival to Poker Road' one Phil Galfond... high stakes pro and teacher of aspiring high-stakes pros, has launched his own website called Poker Static. It has already got off to a flying start based on the buzz around some of the video-interviews... my guess is that there were a couple of real buzz-worthy pieces stored up for the launch, and that the real test of whether this is a good enough website to compete will come a few months down the road.
There is no denying that mulit-media sites and high-stakes action have their audience... what we are wondering his who exactly this demographic are and how the sites plan on making money out of them... could this be that the idea of this site is simply to build the personal brand of Galfond - which he will then cash in with future business ventures? Speculation only of course, we will leave it you to decide for yourselves...
As ever the link is below, remember, Poker Frog is proud to be the web's only completely outward looking poker blog, if you would like to suggest an article or website for a link then just drop me a comment!

Phil Galfond is one of the best online cash game players in the world. But, I think ultimately he will leave his biggest impression with his poker articles and books.
