  • Phil Hellmuth can't believe it. Fedor Holz is bewildered. There is $10 million at stake, two players are all in at the 2018 World Series of Poker Big One For One Drop, and the Ace of Hearts has been exposed by Rick Salomon. What on earth should Fedor do in this spot with pocket tens, and was the tournament director correct to put the exposed ace on the table? This hand is a rollercoaster! Let's break it down.

    I made a mistake, I calculated the equity based on not knowing one card is the Ah. It's actually way more likely to be aces than mentioned in the video.

      I was watching this thinking that it's the other 3 aces or 4 kings. Also kept thinking Fedor may have thought the situation could be AK v AK v TT because he runs so pure. Doug, you are a much improved version of myself. I used to do some podcasting and it should be noted Jimmy Fricke & I called Phil Ivey's historic 7th WSOP bracelet win: ua-cam.com/video/IFTmSOrYnFg/v-deo.html but I just want to say that you do everything I tried to do in poker, but so much better. Seriously, bravo. Slow clap. Your output is amazing, I'm a huge fan.

      Good point. I don't know how often players at these stakes memorize the suits if they're not suited, but if Rick doesn't do that, it effectively narrows it down to AhKh and perhaps AhAd because of the color.

    It's an obvious angle shoot by Salomon. It's never a mistake. Nobody, ever, holds a card up like that unless they deliberately want to show an opponent (in this case, Holz). Salomon is doing it to get Holz out of the pot so he can be heads up against the short stack.

      You're 100% wrong. If you watch the video you can see when Rick looks at the ace as he did he hand't even looked at his other card yet. He's picking it up for the first time. How can he angle someone in the manner you describe not knowing his cards? Ridiculous accusation.

    Great video, but it would have been nice if you also went into depth about what Fedor should do in this spot if the card wasn't exposed and discuss whether or not seeing the Ah increases or decreases his likelihood to call.
    Seeing Ah should make a call better because you get to eliminate JJ, QQ, KK from his jam range which all had you crushed.

    He held his cards up to where maybe Kaverman could see, I doubt anyone else. Kaverman was all in and everyone else had folded other than Fedor. I don't see why the card would have to be flipped over if no other player had seen the card prior to folding.

  • @nuklearwinter2892
    @nuklearwinter2892 6 років тому +18

    Bad ruling, exposing the card is unnecessary here since only Fedor has a decision. If he didn't see it, then there is no reason to show the card to him regardless of whether or not anyone else saw it. The rule as written seems to imply the card should be exposed to allow all players in the hand to get the same information. However, when only one player has only one decision, the card shouldn't be automatically exposed if they did not see the accidentally exposed card.

    • @teckelred
      @teckelred 6 років тому +6

      It could be argued that the previous players' folds were induced by the flashed card, so those players had access to the information and Fedor should have the same right.

    • @nuklearwinter2892
      @nuklearwinter2892 6 років тому

      teckelred that’s exactly what I’m saying. In your case multiple people have a decision to make after a card was exposed, and I agree the card needs to be turned face up. However, in the hand as I saw it, only Fedor had a single decision to close the action.

    • @GaryMillyz
      @GaryMillyz 6 років тому

      Ok, but I made my comment assuming we all understood that everyone else had folded prior to him exposing that card in the SINGLE MOST OBVIOUSLY ANGLING OR COLLUDING FASHION IN THE HISTORY OF POKER. Sorry, had to make clear how ludicrous it was that he did that with that card. But I digress.... So assuming the others had already folded, it's back to my original point- there is zero reason why Fedor should be permitted to see that card prior to taking action. After the hand? Well that point is moot in this instance since Solomon is already all in so we're gonna see it anyway.
      To be clear, the rule you quoted obbbviously only pertains to a situation where this is multiple action left orrr if anyone took action due to the exposed card. If neither of those are true, there is NO WAY the remaining player should see that card before making his decision. Because, by that logic, if Solomon goes all in after everyone else has folded, and the player next to him happpens to see the card, does anyone on earth believe that card should now be face up?? That question, of course, is rhetorical and hopefully makes my point.

      Nolan Olson: 10 10 is actually the favourite to win. Even though it's called a coin flip pocket pairs are slightly ahead over pairs. There is also one Ace in the first players hand meaning AK has 5 outs (AAKKK) to win instead of the usual 6 outs.

  • @gwoody4003
    @gwoody4003 Рік тому +1

    I think that ace was deliberately shown. He was trying to make everyone fold and buy the pot.
    That call on Kaverman's all-in, rather than a return shove, opened the door for Salomon to try and steal the pot. And AK suited is a friggin good hand to do it with.

  • @YolkyPalky
    @YolkyPalky 6 років тому +50

    Doug, the rule (that you read) clearly states a penalty will begin at the end of the hand, such as sitting out the next orbit or something like that. If Salomon had survived that hand, he would've been penalized. He didn't survive the hand and went bust, thus there was no opportunity to penalize him. Not sure what the tangent about penalties being the same in million dollar buyins was all about?

    • @Peterlulu5
      @Peterlulu5 6 років тому +2

      I think the tangent (though we obviously don't know) was based off the fact that I don't think Solomon would've gotten a penalty after the hand. It's been shown before that rulings aren't the same for certain people, so I can see why Doug would say it wouldn't be the same for certain tournaments.

    Without the exposed card Fedor flips against 16 combos of AK and is crushed by 24 combos of JJ+.
    With the exposed card, he flips against 4 combos of AK, 0-4 combos of AQ and 3 combos of AA.
    The exposed card makes a ton of difference, Fedors equity shoots up something like 10%.

    @joshnagel8819 6 років тому +3

    I agree that rules shouldn't be arbitrarily enforced based on the high profile of a player or the tournament. But what penalty do you suggest Salomon deserves here? Wasn't he penalized enough by busting out of the tournament on the hand and providing valuable information to his opponent that helped make that happen? Maybe there would have been a sanction had he survived the hand. No other way to penalize him before it plays out, right?

    • @noex100

    Even though Fedor got his $ in with the best of it, I felt like he got extremely lucky to hit a river that won him this hand. Like Doug said, there is just too much money in this tournament to make a move like this. With 5 cards to come, it's a lot to ask for 10's to hold up against 2 opponents. I would not have called there, personally.

      I do think so, because he is a known sleazeball, but most high level players know that trick is mostly used when guys don't have a made hand, ie: you would never do it with pocket Aces. Still is a tough call with 10s for basically all the marbles
