Full House Over Flush Over Straight! SEVEN Players FIGHT For All This Cash

  • The high stakes action ensues on Live at the Bike, as Doug contests a big pot against seven other players! It may seem nice to hit the nut straight on the turn, but the hand doesn't play itself like you might think. There are some tricky decisions in this hand, especially on a paired board with a possible flush! The river card is the ultimate action generator! What should these players do?
    As always, Doug breaks down each street of action. Poker Hands is the show where Doug analyzes live poker hands from tv poker shows such as Poker After Dark, the World Series of Poker (WSOP), EPT (European Poker Tour), High Stakes Poker, the Aussie Millions, WPT (World Poker Tour) the Big One For One Drop, and the PCA (Pokerstars Carribean Adventure). He especially enjoys reviewing hands by popular high stakes pros like Viktor "Isildur" Blom, Ike Haxton, Dan Cates (Jungleman), Tom "Durrrr" Dwan, Phil Ivey, and OtB_RedBaron.

If the haters knew how much PERTINENT information you give in comparison they would thank you for it.

    Excellent poker commentary, as usual, arguably the best poker commentator alive, one of the very few world class players to do commentary at all, let alone lay out his entire thought process and explain concepts in easy to understand manner, not to mention doing all that for free, or at least there's no fees for the viewers. Watching Doug Polk's videos beats reading any poker book for educational value and it's a lot more fun.

    One way to look at it is that in hindsight, Doug lost the minimum there, as there was zero chance that the set of sixes was folding on the turn. So his decision to slow play ended up being good in a way.

    Yo, Doug! Nice lay down, brother. I'm not sure I would have had the balls to both check (not raise) the turn AND THEN fold the river with what you had, but this is definitely a good hand to analyze with the double flush and boat draw vs. straight. Near perfect play from you on a hand that could have killed your stack. GG and keep up the vids. I'm quickly becoming a fan of yours. *I have a Q for you:* You obviously like to analyze hands... which poker player is your favorite to analyze?

      @trollemall7016 5 років тому +2

      In the BB you could probably have the offsuit combos aswell. So I would flat the combos with a heart or a club and raise the ones without. Makes it a little less likely that someone has the draw and that it comes in.

    • @ayyo1579
      @ayyo1579 5 років тому

      @Troll Em' All - yup 54hh and 54cc are the best two combos to flat. After that we have another 10 combos with at least 1 heart or club that we can pick from to flat if we want more flats. 54dd and 54ss should be raises without question.

  • @juliusmanno337
    @juliusmanno337 6 років тому

    Really liked your decision here to flat on 4th st, as it disguises the strength of your hand and a bet or raise won't fold out the stronger draws. It saves money in the end, while giving you nice potential for disguised risk free value on the river...Perhaps more of an old school approach as in a conservative PLO line?...I really dig the line Doug, nice 1...

Middle pos bets i raise, small blind raises to 200. Middle folds i tank and call. River is a spade. Started off with 1k. SB jams i think for a bit and call. SB had A2 spades. Trapper gets trapped! I go on tilt, recognized it as I'm pulling out another buy in, and leave. I grumble to myself as i go and buy a six pack of beer. Then after a few I'm happy!

      I thought so as well, but I'm not sure. I think it might be possible to come up with some sort of analytical answer. You're probably facing some combination of trips, flush and straight draws. How often do each of those holdings fold and how often do you beat them if they stick around? Maybe somebody will stop by that feels like putting pencil to paper to come up with some sort of quantitative answer.

    Hey +Doug Polk Poker I have a question:
    Do you think it is better to find a poker style that you are comfortable with such as a loose agro player or a nit or maybe something like for example: a player that likes to build a table image of never bluffing and then randomly throw out bluffs so that he has less likely hood of getting called(me)? Or is it better to not really have any "style" and try to be as unpredictable as possible so as to not give off any tells, and keep your opponent guessing so that they are never in a position where they say something like "oh he raised me x on the turn" and then immediately fold.

    • @dcoriginal8746
      @dcoriginal8746 5 років тому

      Kind of splitting hairs, but...
      Straight flush over straight flush. Nobody is ever folding in a zillion simulations. Nobody. The lower end loses his stack every time (and hopefully there’s a bad beat jackpot coming for him).
      Quads over Quads? It would take a mind reader to fold there - if you fold quads you should just never be allowed in any card game including Uno for the rest of your life.
      High end of the flush fold to a possible straight flush? If you fold to a “possible” straight flush, you are probably the type who’s afraid of being bitten by a “possible” unicorn. You just lose and reload or go home.
      Set over set? I’ve never been able to do it, but I’ve seen it done and it seems much more possible. If you ever see a straight flush, quads or a nut flush fold on an unpaired board please post that person’s name and favorite card room?

    btw this hand analysis is pretty nice
    softplay with 54 with no f/d is nice too
    if someone did play PLO they would understand that even more deeply

    Your advice is always "sometimes you're good and sometimes you're not", "maybe you'll have the best hand and maybe you won't" or "either option is okay with me".

      I know , right?! I’m surprised not many people have picked up that there is no “ correct” way to play poker. At the end of the day, whoever gets the chips is the winner regardless of how they play.

    sometimes when you're playing a big hand with your buddy Ryan you decide not to raise his turn bet, even though you have the nuts!

    Is it a reasonable strategy to decide, when facing the SB's overbet turn lead into six other players, to flat hands that have a club or heart and raise hands that don't? The logic being that it's less likely for our opponents to have nutted or combo draws that can suck out on us when we're likely to go multiway to the river owning to having blockers to either flush draw.
    On the other hand, when we DON'T have a club or a heart in our hand, our opponents can have every combo of heart + club draw and raising allows us to get more value + protection from hands that have a fair chunk of equity against us. Therefore, wouldn't the best possible hand to be taking the flat vs Fee with not be 54 with the five of clubs and the four of hearts, or vice versa?

    Can we talk about the HUGE shrimp cocktail that was wheeled up behind Doug at the 6:00 mark?

    I think Doug should have raised the nuts on the turn. trapping it makes sense on the river when there is no value in denaying equity, but in this exact spot raising was better, considering the amount of players still in the hand, and the small spr of Mike .and Max
    you really wanna stack off with the nuts, and raising will accomplish that a lot of the times, while denaying equity of some players.

    Polk's advice is for the set of 6s to raise big to "thin the field" but for me personally, and I know this could be considered a bad play. I sometimes like to play it weak here full and well knowing that if I miss and flush gets there, I can fold and save a lot of chips by a hand that is calling anyway OR also a straight that is on the board that given the fact it was 7 handed pre-flop and a lot 54. I prefer to play it weak and let the river come. If the board pairs AND is suited, I make a LOT more money and take NO gamble. If I DONT hit, I can fold and save chips. To do this play though you have to have a good read on your opponents. Ive done this play about 5x and won HUGE stacks 3 out of 5 when board paired, (once a guy just bluffed all in since I checked turn). One time i FOLDED on the river, 2 other guys in the hand and my hand was beat if I had called.
