  • Live at the Bike legend Garrett Adelstein finds himself in a classic cooler situation. At first he's on the good side of it, with pocket aces dominating pocket kings. After a set gets flopped, however, things get complicated and lots of money starts piling up in the pot.

      @@jeankenissan1528 No, he's never had that situation. He did face a $400-600 river bet with a good hand (top 2?) and lost to trips that hit on the flop. His body language then made it likely that he knew he was donating to the pot and had no choice. Other than that, he never made the wrong action on the river.

    How Postle would play it:
    Garrett raises AA.
    Postle looks all depressed and conflicted. Clearly hates his life. Just calls with KK.
    Flop KJ2. Postle looks much happier. His hat grows a bit.
    Garrett bets. Postle min raises. Garrett calls.
    Turn 3. Garrett bets half pot. Postle calls.
    River A. Postle gets inexplicably upset and shifts around in his chair. Starts muttering about how life is unfair. Shoots a look of rage at the announcers. Announcers declare he will definitely fold.
    Garrett suffers small stroke and accidentally bets $15 into a $10,000 pot.
    Postle folds.

    Thanks for discussing Garrett’s viewpoint after the flop on whether or not Nick had KK, JJ, or KJ. When I was watching this I initially thought those hands seemed very likely based on Nick’s pre-flop actions but listening to you talk about how those were certainly possible but less likely than a lot of hands that AA beat made sense. Very insightful, much appreciated.

    When the ace hits the board Garrett's heartrate increases so much you can see it in his breathing. That was a tell that could have made an observant player fold to Garrett's last bet. As a dealer, I notice those things. I'm always surprised that players don't seem to pick up on player's demeanors and reactions.

    But i sometimes have a very light feeling. Thst he draws his conclusion by working backwards instead of thr cards at hand....
    Hes so good that 80% of his game is set where he knows what to do at any postition with any cards at any given time, BUT when chooses the good battles to do a breakdown. It seems his ability to say "call or raise is perfect, BUT I would prefer a raise in this spot...." Seems (this statement was a complete hypothetical. Not part of this hand).
