No, he does this to get a response from the opponent for a live read. LudaChris didn't give away anything, so eventually Nick fell for Chris' super bluffy image. Nick even says it at 6:00 just before calling.
@@ChannelV88 Lol it has nothing to do with getting a read and everything with saving face. Nick is such a whiny player and gets too much credit for being good - all he does is play tight against this player pool that are all very loose, bad players. And it works.
@@sujay750 you've finally figured him out. He does this to look good either way. Hes been a losing player for 20 years and will always be a losing player.
It was a tough call because this guy Luda will go all-in with 7-2 in his hand and all face cards on the board. That’s what makes him a great poker player. As Forrest Gump said “You never know what your going to get.”
Nick fell in love with his own hand, and willfully discounted the obvious: What kind of hands call your pre-Flop 4-bet ? A/x suited-Broadways are very likely.
@@rawl316 Nick & Chris have a history, so it may be that Nick *wanted* a call from Chris so he could "bluff-catch" him later. Bet he regrets that ... now.
The problem is that Nick himself could have AK,AQs,QQ,TT etc and check the flop. So Chris could bet into those hands on turn and river. Not a good bluffing spot at all after a call turn, which again could be all the strong hands from Nick. Easy laydown regardless of who you are up against.
luda calls the 4 bet which can only put him on a super tight range if he is a nit player. probably has hand combinations like aces, ace queen, queens, maybe jacks or ace queen, ace jack. ace king likely but not really. MAYBE a 4 bet call have some lower pocket pairs but when he checks and delayed c bets on the turn it should send signals that hes tryna get value with a hand like aj at worst, no way you can call with kings in that spot
@@afrochickenboy yea i dont really know the dynamics of the table but a 4 bet call can make any aggro player fold with dog hands, luda calling feels so obvious he has a strong hand
Honestly, I was gonna hate on nick first but he took it majorly well lol. There’s a difference of putting somebody on a hand and hoping somebkdy has a hand
Only aspect of HCL I don’t like is that the percentages account for cards that are in the muck (and only seen by one player who isn’t in the hand) thus the checkmark on flop. Might be the only way the software works, Im not sure 🤷🏻♂️
This is not a simulation, but an actual live event, so they give the viewers the actual percentages. Since a K was folded preflop, Nick is drawing dead. I would think that's an aspect of HCL that you would appreciate... like a live sporting event, they keep actual scores.
This is the lack discipline that separates the greats and the amateurs. Poker is not as easy as it looks. Knowing when to fold is one of the hardest skills to develop in poker.
@@timq6224 most the players who would agree with me are dead or in a nursing home. So I leave you with this. What is a joint? Pipe joint? Wall joint? Look up the definition of the word. It means joining! JS! Why is the wheel called a wheel? Why is broadway called broadway? Why are nuts the nuts? Why a leather ass? Why a railbird? (Me) why chirping chips? Why coffee housing? Why left pocket? The meanings have diluted over time. And that’s cool! Again I never sat and actually discussed it before just played a ton of poker in brick and mortar and it was always used regarding a nut straight, not broadway or the wheel. And absolutely never regarding a full house!This was mostly by people who were 70 plus that was 25 years ago Sams Town. I guess like saying “looking a gift horse in the mouth” people say it never knowing why. They just say it! Anyway I’m bored and wish I was at the WSOP instead of western Nebraska! Peace! Thanks for replying. Poker History is important!
The only bluffs there are Q10 and JJ as played. Both are possible but way more value hands are out there. Not the worst call honestly but have to let that one go.
Nick had a bluff-catcher. He’s never beating any of Luda Chris’s value hands. He listed out loud a bunch of hands that beat him and not one that he could beat with KK and yet still called it off…
It’s just so unlikely Luda is bluffing into you when you are the one who’s range crushes that flop. When he leads turn and you call he can only continue with a monster.
After all that logic of knowing all of the possible hands his opponent could beat him with, he still makes the call for all of his chips with only pocket kings! Literally trips, a straight, a flush, or a full house could beat him! He literally went with the opposite of his basic instincts! Greed can do that to ya!
Love so much Luda ( even if he has an oversized ego ) , he comes With 70 k and is willing to lose all his money on bluffs , Wrong calls , by reraising With napkins ect and the most important for the entertainment of the show ! What a gentleman . A rare human nowadays 👍!
Nick should get a ton of credit for his thought process. Spot on. It’s just Luda Chris at the end of the day, you can’t use General population tendencies to justify why you think it’s a bad fold. Chat pros are the worst.
and yet you also cant throw out population tendancies just because its vs a spazzo like Luda and he likes to bluff lol. Literally everything gets there on the river. His thought process was correct, Nick just let his ego take over and made the call.
Chris 3-bet, then called a 4-bet. Sure he does that with random cards sometimes, but an A is definitely one of his probable holdings. His rep won him that money (that and Nick's ego.)
Luda glasses got him to not focus. Two aces and a queen on flop, and you never put him for Ace Queen or even pocket queens. I would put him for at least one ace with the all-in. But Luda must bluff him a lot, since which is why he called.
Almost like Nick was trying to trick him to show his hands. Kept saying he got it he got it and looks at him. But I could be wrong. Guess the band ain’t dead until you muck your cards. But he should have gone with his instincts, not against it.
When nick reraises the flop, then checks the flop, easy tell that nick V doesn’t have an Ace. Kudos to Luda for getting paid for his reputation as a crazy player
Nick - perfectly talks through hand on river and knows he’s beat.
Also Nick - Call

This is comedy gold, I love, love, love Nick’s thought process and then immediately proceeding action here so much. Makes for great content!
He has some kind of an advanced autism. He really need to seek a professional help.
A poker players fear of getting bluffed because their ego can’t handle it is the worst trait to have in this game .
Worst feeling when you have KK is an ace on the flop and if you're putting me all in I just gotta fold :(
You are 100% correct!
@@mezamezz Yeah, everytime I go with a pocket pair and I see an Ace on the flop its instant fold at any bet.
totally agree. imho this is what separates pro from casual
arms full of tribal tats and wearing a cutoff reeks of ego.
Absolutely perfect commentary, knows when to be silent so we can hear the players talk.
"Or he saw all the dead money you dumb fucks left on the table" was the hardest I've laughed in a while.
“Luda’s trying to not smile. He’s unsuccessful”
😂
Love when these guys think out loud
It’s so annoying cause they just complain for 5 minutes straifht
It shows me I have alot of learning to do lol I play 1/1 and don't ever think like this lol
"think"
He's trying to see if Luda Chris gives some sort of reaction.
Perfectly analyzed. Still made the call. Lmao
I love the games where players respect each other and talk themselves through it. That's a tough hit, but respect to Nick
Respect for figuring it out. Face palm for calling anyway.
I saw Nick in the thumbnail and just had to watch for a good chuckle and set me up for the day 😂😂😂
I love it when nick shares his poker knowledge, tough to lay that down against the maniac Luda.
He ain’t the only one that knows he’s beat but still makes the call. We’ve all been there!
I just try not to do it when it’s my entire stack lol

“That was a overplay” - Wes
That was a great " overplay shove" by luda maximum value. Bad bad call by nick
Wtf he knows? Only knows his dad ‘s Bank credit.
''Nick needs a mis-deal, he doesn't get it'' 😆
Great bet by Luda. Got the maximum from a nit player
NV over play
Some how nick tends to know he’s way behind but still convincing him self to make the wrong decisions
Yeah Nick talked out everything right, he knew he was beat but still called?
Just because of LudaChris' super bluffy image. Nick even says it at 6:00 why he forced himself to make that call.
It's because he has zero talent.
As we all do in this silly game we love
Called a 4bet and guy doesn't think you got the ace
Love Luda Chris, that guy would’ve played that the same way as a stone cold bluff too! That guy is so much fun to watch!
Agree
Luda Chris should be in every single televised cash game.
He does this speech shit just so he can look right either way. Horrible call

And when ego pushed you for all in.

Yea because of how crazy Chris plays ▶️
How do you put so much hair gel on so little hair??
Nicks necklace keeps disappearing into his neck. Quite a show.
What’s nicks 4bet range with players behind? I don’t ak suited plus aces and kings?
“Marinate on that call”. Great table talk
The Daniel Negreanu move !! 😂😂🤦🏼♂️
We’ve all been there…know you are best and can’t fold. Appreciate Nick for verbalizing his thoughts on the hand
He played his hand so badly.... Not testing what the opponent on flop and turn put him on this spot on the river.
Always smart to let the whole table know how you think .
How do you call ?
“Nick is gonna need a misdeal... he doesn’t get it” 😂😂 love to see him lose after talking so much.
Just noticed this, does Nitucci always have position on Luda or am I trippin??

Did they even shuffle the cards?
Why'd he call?
Great short upload, thank you.

@0:30 Luda "looks" like he is counting Nicks chips; but, as close as he is leaning in it looks like he is trying to "edge sort" Nicks cards.
Jeez. How does he call there?? It’s hard to watch
Wow, great thought process but still couldn’t let it go. I’ve gone through the same thing but it was subconscious and took about 4 seconds.
The only thing stronger than the fear of getting stacked is the fear of getting bluffed.
True, especially holding KK or AA, AND on TV or livestream.
I swear Luda Chris games popping up in my feed exclusively.
He wasn’t drawing dead. His outs were runner runner jack and 10 of diamonds for royal flush.
😂 but yeah good luck
"Take it" 😂😩
His name is Luda chris?
Another classic example of a player correctly analyzing the hand and action but still reluctantly pays off on river.
It’s funny to watch humans. Dude correctly deduces the situation and then calls anyway.
Only aspect of HCL I don’t like is that the percentages account for cards that are in the muck (and only seen by one player who isn’t in the hand) thus the checkmark on flop. Might be the only way the software works, Im not sure 🤷🏻♂️
Ahhh, that's a good explanation. I was wondering why the checkmark when runner runner to Quad Kings seemed to be an option.
Did any of the guys have a king?
This is not a simulation, but an actual live event, so they give the viewers the actual percentages. Since a K was folded preflop, Nick is drawing dead. I would think that's an aspect of HCL that you would appreciate... like a live sporting event, they keep actual scores.
@@Kotepitia or royal flush.
Why is there a checkmark on the flop for AQ? Nick can still win with K turn and K river. Also, he can win with Jd and Td for the royal flush.
In the beginning you see a K8o being folded. Probably someone else also folded J or 10 of diamonds before that.
This is the lack discipline that separates the greats and the amateurs. Poker is not as easy as it looks. Knowing when to fold is one of the hardest skills to develop in poker.
Wait… if Nick said Luda had A7 why he called 😮? WTH

Easy fold he broke hand down perfectly and should of stuck with it , my best advise to anyone who plays poker ‘ think long think wrong ‘
I could never take an opponent who wears those glasses seriously. The funny thing is, that usually works against them 😂
Nick talked it through perfectly. Just couldn’t find it within to lay it down. Hard to blame him here
We don’t have all the preflop action.
He called your 4-bet. That means he has a big hand with an A... AQ, AJ or even QQ. Many hands beats you and you still called.
Nick and luda is basically Tom and Jerry
I don't know how it was a check mark on the flop. He had the possibility of runner runner for the royal flush.
Someone probably folded either J or 10 of diamonds. And that possibility is maybe 0.001% at best.
Luda one of my favorites to watch on the stream
I wonder why luda has checkmark on the flop? Must take into account the folded cards
@Zoltán Mayer and the royal flush? must be edited out
i thought red tint on shades wasn't allowed in casinos due to invisible ink...or something 🤷
that isn't the right color of red for the ink trick to work.
Luda glasses got him to not focus. Two aces and a queen on flop, and you never put him for Ace Queen or even pocket queens.
