Let’s all take a moment to appreciate how beautiful poker was 20 years ago❤️ The characters, the commentators, the nostalgic look of everything. Absolutely beautiful!
This was PERFECT time to be growing up and in high school l! I remember these times and that’s when I started playing cards at school with friends and with my football team and friends parents house etc. some of my best memories!
Brings me back to one of the best time periods of my life...Summer of 2005, 23 years old, fresh off graduating college, living in a house with 4 of my bros...grab a 12 pack of Miller lite, throw the Sox on one tv and this on the other and play $10 tourneys with the 5 of us. What a time
@@aheroictaxidriver3180 Out of the thousands of sentences said at televised poker tables, why is the one about Juanda folding trips repeated ad nauseam?
@@aheroictaxidriver3180 Interesting, but that's not what I asked. I asked the question specifically about Juanda folding trips because you deem that particular meme worthy of repetition. I'm seeking an insider's point of view for that particular often repeated statement. I suppose you could deny agency and claim that the meme has a life of its own which is working through you.
They had to have had access to admin accounts back then aka able to see opponents hole cards.. If it was being done on absolute and ultimatebet there’s no doubt it was happening on FT
I love how Steve dannenmann was kind of ripping on Howard lederer considering he was a nobody before that tournament and he hasn't done crap since that tournament
Incredible what a scumbag loser Howard Lederer was and how espn tried to sell him as some poker hero. Granted half their "celebrities" from this era were either broke, a crook, a scumbag or all 3.
@@HopyHop1 Howard made it 7.2k, double that for Steve's call and you're at 14.4k. Plus the SB and the antes gets you around 19k. After the allin/call, the pot says 84k. Meaning the allin on the flop was for roughly 33k. So closer to 1.5x pot, which is still pretty bad.
The asian lady in the kimono practicing her all ins while pushing forward imaginary chips before the game started was stuff of legends. I haven't seen that clip in 18 years. 😂😂😂 "aaaallll eeeen...aalll eeeen."
Man this show brings back some memories 😢 Was an amazing time to be 21 and still growing up during the poker boom! This show made some superstars outta some ordinary Joe type of people lol.
Back in 2005, the amount of starting chips was still equivalent to the buy-in. In 2008, the WSOP decided to double the starting stacks and, in 2009, the starting stack amount was increased to triple the buy-in amount.
Man if i ever get a time.machine im going back to this era of poker. Mainly for the fun. Ha, maybe this is how you could notice if time travel is possible and happening, if some random dude shows up and totally dominates at something.
42:20 How is that guy upset at himself for calling with the 2nd nut flush.. how can you fold that? Not even a straight flush possible, unpaired board. It sucks sure but almost impossible to fold.
I think he was referring to the action that lead up the river.. calling whatever the previous bets were on a draw that was ultimately just inferior. On the river, you 99% can’t fold, but he could have probably gotten away prior to that. Hard to say, as we only saw the end of the hand. Cheers
I mean. Poker does mean more to some than others. Like another comment said he was probably thinking of the previous streets and thinking he should have gotten out of it sooner. Nothing wrong with getting emotional if the tournament meant a lot to fun.
I don't like the lack of detail. They don't tell you what the blind levels are, the pot sizes, or bet sizes unless they're estimating an all-in. I really wanted to see just how much play has changed in the last 2 decades. I never realized until re-watching these from 2003-2005 just how much of a luck-box Farha is. That was like the sixth time I saw him all in as at least a 2:1 underdog (he was about 5:1 here) and wins.

Now we have low iq morons all over the place thinking they are high IQ, but getting rekt by Hellmuth or Ivey again and again.
This was PERFECT time to be growing up and in high school l! I remember these times and that’s when I started playing cards at school with friends and with my football team and friends parents house etc. some of my best memories!
Except half these guys turned out to be scum bags and thieves.
It's funny how you remember every little thing, watched these way too many times back in the day.
Get a grip

That sounds amazing! I‘m glad you got to experience a summer like that my brother! 😎
16:26 Juanda sipping his drink during this is hilarious
I heard he made trips. And laid it down.
Lol. Miraculously wins huge pot n didnt even crack a smirk, just open eyes and a sip of pink smoothie like nothing happened

5:10 of course Howard doesn't think about the min cash... he thought of how he could rip off his customer base
That clip with the phone call to a bud with the 86 was classic vs Howard hahahahahaha
Lederer is a criminal
That Jon Juanda hand vs Darden. lol! “Wow” as he casually takes a drink.
Pretty stark contrast from the pro in control of his emotions, to the amateurs screaming like idiots every time they win a pot.
Lederer plays like hes playing with someone elses money. Go figure
I got you 😂
They had to have had access to admin accounts back then aka able to see opponents hole cards.. If it was being done on absolute and ultimatebet there’s no doubt it was happening on FT
11:06 Matusow was AWESOME. "You wanted me BADDDD you had to call that re-raise with Jack 7. YEAAAA THATS WHY I TALK" hahahahah
Do you think when Lederer had AJ against 68 off suit and got bluffed is when he decided to take every ones money.
😂
he didn't know he got bluffed so there seems to be a flaw in your logic
@@antzooma what they didn't have tv that far back. I am sure he watched it.
I love how Steve dannenmann was kind of ripping on Howard lederer considering he was a nobody before that tournament and he hasn't done crap since that tournament
What a pair - Ray Bitar and Howard Lederer 19:24 Set the poker world back a decade or so 🤦♂
Incredible what a scumbag loser Howard Lederer was and how espn tried to sell him as some poker hero. Granted half their "celebrities" from this era were either broke, a crook, a scumbag or all 3.
They killed it.
What happened brother
@@keithmarsella8252 'what happened?' ahahaha
@@keithmarsella8252look up full tilt scandal on Google
CRAZY how Howard Lederer went out in real life SMFH
Same could be said for a lot of these pros from back in the day.
The Bartholomew/Friedman flush confrontation was epic = "That's what I'm talkin-bout!"
20:50 Oh man.... What a difference in 2005 poker and 2023 poker when "Defending your big blind" was considered a move only amateurs would do.
tbh no one in 2005 had an idea how to play poker correctly. tourneys seemed soft af.
I don't take what Norman Chad says seriously.
I think defending there with K5hh is marginal at best, probably not terrible. Open jamming the flop for 2x pot is, was and will always be terrible lol
@@Kanders190 How do you know it was 2x pot?
@@HopyHop1 Howard made it 7.2k, double that for Steve's call and you're at 14.4k. Plus the SB and the antes gets you around 19k. After the allin/call, the pot says 84k. Meaning the allin on the flop was for roughly 33k. So closer to 1.5x pot, which is still pretty bad.

"aaaallll eeeen...aalll eeeen."
Haha. Yea that little clip is a masterpiece of amusement
More personality on one table then in the whole series now days
Counting all those chips during an all-in must've been a nightmare for the dealers
Can’t believe it’s been so long since I watched this on ESPN! Feels like yesterday
13:09 we have our 1st entrant in the 2006 wsop main event
Man this show brings back some memories 😢 Was an amazing time to be 21 and still growing up during the poker boom! This show made some superstars outta some ordinary Joe type of people lol.
3:31 And just like that... Just like that, Barbara Enright doesn't even have to wait for the river card
11:55 he won't mind going all in
Joe Stillman looks like a Staten Island adult pizza delivery guy
8:31 the bubble sharks are circling
I don't care what anyone thinks, I miss the RIO!!! Perfectly located before the strip, I love the Amazon room. It needed a lil work, but it was great.
Robert Varkonyi is such a dork 😂😂😂
Who else is seeing that Milwaukee light brewed for a man's taste Commercial and wishing it was actually bud lights slogan back then? Oh the jokes.....
Who is in charge of coloring up?
They send out chip runners, and tell the players what's being colored up. They usually do it during a break.
The old footage makes it hard to predict the runout because it's not only coolers. The new style, you already know the cooler is coming
Dannaman and Haschem were lucky to make it past day 2
11:45 there's the 2005 WSOP main event BUBBLE BOY
16:40 juanda had twips
42:23 THAT'S WHAT I'm TALKIN' ABOUT.... THAT'S WHAT I'm TALKIN' ABOUT
4:25 the 1st Big poker hand for the man who went on to win the WSOP main event interesting enough
Jeez. Color up those black bennies 😂
Matusow high AF
42:20 this was before coolers were known about
With how many chips were they starting from back then??
Back in 2005, the amount of starting chips was still equivalent to the buy-in. In 2008, the WSOP decided to double the starting stacks and, in 2009, the starting stack amount was increased to triple the buy-in amount.
42:30 bro. There's no crying in baseball.
Uploading everyday! WHO ARE THEASE PEOPLE?!?
Having a active stack in that tournament must be such a sweat
Man if i ever get a time.machine im going back to this era of poker. Mainly for the fun. Ha, maybe this is how you could notice if time travel is possible and happening, if some random dude shows up and totally dominates at something.
Lane Flack died 2021
It’s actually insane how bad these players were.
42:20 How is that guy upset at himself for calling with the 2nd nut flush.. how can you fold that? Not even a straight flush possible, unpaired board. It sucks sure but almost impossible to fold.
I don’t know if I’ve seen many people cry after losing before
He’s on the spectrum for sure.
Mike the Mouth cried many times, but like you say, spectrum kids. 😂
I think he was referring to the action that lead up the river.. calling whatever the previous bets were on a draw that was ultimately just inferior. On the river, you 99% can’t fold, but he could have probably gotten away prior to that. Hard to say, as we only saw the end of the hand. Cheers

They also don't show each player busting out. These are just camera people wandering around the room, recording various hands.
maybe you should write them a letter to go back in time and fix those things
25:40 nit roll
those fish donking off to Lederer lol
I can barely hear the commentators.
HACK THE PLANET!
Howard Lederer is an awful poker player 😂 on top of being a criminal
Does Howard have a sister that plays poker?
Milwaukee Best is the worst beer!!
Mifune Jjapanese, no stress on any syllable..is same as the great actor Toshiro Mifune Meh foon ni.
Use me as the "don't care" button
Pretty sure he is Brazilian =)
yes, Japanese ethnically.@@pablomoreira8227
The good ole days… back before Howard and Jesus were criminals
Phil Ivey chastised an amateur for standing up when he was ahead . Here Lederer stands up while he’s ahead
"Why you standing up for you got the nuts"
He’s crying you need to find a new profession buddy
One of the best mixed game tournament players in the world now.
To be fair, Friedman has become a very successful player with 4 WSOP bracelets.
Imagine paying for a pokergo subscription.
C'mon, nothing funny. This video features a player who is so much better than all the others, that they call him "The Great Professor."
4:36 one of the best player in the world at that time says Yes! after bad card. That tells me all. Guy dont even knew the rules ffs
He wasn't one of the best. Before the month started, he had never won more than $3K in a tournament. And he didn't win a whole lot after this, either.
And a spade coming off would have been a lot worse, esp. Ks.
