I think the pros of taking a free card OOP are bigger than the cons. You're getting 4 cards for the price of 3 OOP.

But when Phil checks dark he will do it with an overpair like the 99. I just about LMAO when I saw that. So he's not putting Farha on any cards over a 9 and he couldn't be putting him on too many cards lower than a 9 either or else he makes those 2P, etc. Just a priceless Phil Hellmuth donk. And then he leaves himself no choice but to re-shove the turn and pray that Farha didn't really have anything. Sure, against Farha it probably is a good strategy but my god, you play cash poker like that and you won't last long.
