She's such a bad player. How is she going to sit there and go on about "how she didn't expect him to do that", essentially telling him she's not super strong, and then announce all in?
Me too. I played against her IRL before she was well known. Vegas, Caesars. 5/10$. Back in 2008-2009. Omg, she was SO acid. I raised her ONCE, and I did it SILENTLY. I literally didn't say a SINGLE WORD. She got SO offended, "OKAY TOUGH GUY! I CALL!" "I CHECK TO THE TOUGH GUY!" Omg she was SO gross. Then, like an hour later, the flop came 6-7-8 and I had 99 (I opened the pot preflop under the gun or second to act, she flat-called middle/late position.) Anyways, I bet the flop & turn, and didn't improve. An ace hit the river and it froze the action. She had 10-10, played it pretty slow, she won the pot, and OMG SHE WAS SO happy with herself. It was literally about the most STANDARD POT/HAND you could imagine, but you would have thought she just made the greatest play in 50 years. It's like she hates the world because she's a woman or something.
@@mycommentpwnz yes, she is acid. she could not make it as a lawyer. zero people skills and personality even if she has a brain . One must learn how to lose growing up , you know playing sports, checkers, chess or whatever. It teaches a person many things for later in life. She never learned anything
@@aepr84 well I'm pretty sure chan knew that he hadn't called his 4 bet with 2s 5s or 6s,probably puts him on kings or summat like that,also if he had a set he wouldn't be jamming
Loved that bluff at the end, didn't put it in too fast but just fast enough that it didn't seem too hesitant - what a move The fact that he fooles galfond shows how credible the line is that he took
Gabe wasn't hitting all cylinders without AJ to bounce jokes off of. Imagine any comedian doing a stand up routine with no one in the audience and that is what is put on tv. Doesn't make any sense to have a funny guy if he is going to be alone.
I remember watching all of this live but unlike good poker players, I have no memory. Thus, I get to watch it all over again as if it is the first time. Good stuff.
Phil Ruffin was the perfect storm, he's one of the amateurs at the table so the pro's didn't give him any credit. Combined with him hitting good hands he got a huge payout because of it
When you see plays like Boneta...it always keeps the door open for an amateur to crush even a legendary table. Ruffin wasn't intimidated, and it showed. Also, getting paid off always helps lol
See, thats why I thought she had an easier choice to fold that hand. Ruffin was an amateur, and in my opinion, that makes him much less likely to be bluffing, and when he moves chips, is much more likely to have it. He even acted out of turn like an excited kid on Christmas morning. I could see calling Antonio, but not Ruffin or a Laliberte type who would be terrified to bluff at that table.
She is one of the worst players in HSP. Her luck played a huge role in several occasions to get where she is. Her arrogancy cost her a lot, and i love it
It's just great to hear Norm's voice even more so after the terrible news this week rest in peace Norm Macdonald one of the greatest comedians could ever live and that's not just some b******* because he passed away
15:43 "Come out of the cave Yoda" was a pretty good line. The Voulgaris guy was pretty salty. I wish they left whatever conversation happened before Perkins looked at his cards in the video.
Bill Klein was definitely the best businessman player in HSP. All the others who featured then like Laliberte, Ruffin, Perkins etc were such fishes even by the standards of the past but Bill definitely showed some good understanding of the spots.
@OILΔR Never saw Guy bluff though. Sure, he won some big hands, but he always had a big hand or draw. I never saw him play a hand where I thought he made a pro type play, and when he did bet big, he was much easier to know he had a monster hand than a pro would. Just seemed when he bet a ton, it wasnt that hard to know to fold. Idk maybe thats just me.
I love this video it was great hands and what made it best of all was having Norm Macdonald please put more on with Norm Macdonald and let me know I want to see them
Brilliant bluff by Klein in the last hand. He knew that he had credibly represented a set (99, 22 or JJ) on every street. On flop he raised Croak and everyone just called. As an aside, I think Croak should've shoved there seeing as how many draws there are and the only hands he loses to are 99 and 22 (or the unlikely single combo of JJ). He bet out on the turn (ballsy move with a straight completing) and called Galfond's raise - a credible line for a set worried about the straight. I believe he knew on the turn that besides the fact that he can win or chop if he gets his straight on the river and win with his flush, he could bluff on a board pairing river. And on the river, that's exactly what he did!
@@zizoumonk10 He probably didn't think an amateur would call that size of bet on the turn with just a flush draw. Flop, sure, but with just one more card to hit, that's a lot to call. Honestly, as soon as the board paired on the river, the play made sense for Klein to make and Galfond was naturally worried. Just a really unlucky river card for Galfond to feel like his straight wins against a large bet.
@@seankiesling2054 Yeah he was definitely chosen for this because of his entertainment value / low salary expectations as opposed to his vast insight into strategy and game theory. Ali Nejad knows what I'm talkin' about lol
@@BdotYewToob lmao Ali Nejad's commentating on Poker After Dark was almost a joke...but somehow it worked *8 mins of silence* "And Hellmuth takes the pot" Lol. Literally anyone could do that job... that PAD gig was probably the best gig in TV history

It really is, and look at Klein's facial expression and body language when the jack hits, then the way he looks at galfond's stack...he looked like that jack hit him and really sold it well
That Galfond fold I didn’t quite understand. If Klein had the boat, wouldn’t he have raised his set or top two pair before the river since there are flush and straight options on the board? What was he supposed to represent with the way he played that hand??
the tightest guy at the table jumps out of his seat and back bets you out of turn after that flop and selbst cant release qq. no wonder she quit poker.
I remember the hand where Barry had aces against Farhas kings, told him he only wanted to run it once, and after getting coolered on the flop, Farha STILL asks if he wanted to run two full hands, and Barry said no. Thats integrity.
6:16I mean what the point for raising allin there?Even ace high top kicker would figure some ways to call,which has more equity than kq,let alone aces,kings,queens etc.Worser hand would never call.
Klein played the last hand exactly like how someone would play the hand if they flopped a set. Each raise and called yelled out Set, Set. Not sure if that was his intention, but on each street, he played it like a set.
Boneta reminded of when Selbst lost her mind in the big game vs Prahlad Freeman. It was very awkward and uncomfortable for Vanessa. Boneta looked so out of place there, just staring at Daniel, looking for some comfort.

Hyper agressive. In a lot of ways in life it seems.

"He might not know what running twice means but he knows when Vanessa ask it's a bad idea" 🤣🤣🤣
Galfond handled that hand with good cheer and grace. Very impressive temperament.

Do some of these players actually need the money though, or just doing it just for a laugh.
I dont think this is real money. Just for show.
