I just want you guys to know that even though my focus is elsewhere right now, I still care about the community we built here and I care about the game of poker. Currently there is an oppurtuntiy to take advantage of a growing industry, and that means having to spend less time on poker. I will continue to put out content here at a much slower pace (going to be putting up a video a week), and I want to say thanks for the support over the last couple of years.
Just curious, did you reverse the links in your description on purpose to troll us, or was that an accident? The one described as Upswing Poker points to CoinCentral, and vice versa.
Idk man, your poker hands videos are the best on youtube by far, and even better than most videos that cost money, and in crypto, we have some people that really know their stuff. I know that you know that, and focusing on entartaiment, but it seems as a pretty crappy tradeoff to me. Ofc, this is not about me, and you know what are your own goals. I didn't really watched poker entertainment all that much, also, so maybe I am not all that relevant. I think you have pretty methodical approach to business though...you know your shit in that regards (this is not 100% compliment, because huge part of that is media/political skill and talent, which I am not a fan of...I don't really trust everything you say, to be precise). Sorry for spelling/grammatical errors, english is not my first language, and I rarely even write comments.
You gotta take ICM considerations into play late in tournaments. I was in a tournament where there were 5 players left and one guy had one big blind and two guys had exactly the same number of chips. We ran the numbers and the short stack was going to only get slightly more than 5th place money and decided to play on. On the very next hand, the two players with the exact same amount of chips went all in against each other guaranteeing the short stack to ladder up. It was so stupid and so unbelievable that I wouldn't have believed it if I wasn't sitting there. The short stack got an extra $250 dollars and one of the all in guys who lost cost himself over $600. Still can't believe it.
Range math FTW. What a call. I wonder if a bet of about 5-6 million on the river might have been a better bluff. In that particular spot, the shove feels too much like pressure. Betting pot like that on the river represents basically the nuts only; it's hard to have the nuts.
Just a question when you analyze these hands is it like stream of conscienceness or do you have like a notecard with points to hit? Since watching I have tried to come up with checklist to help decision making. I just didn't know is this what is really going on in your head at the table. #bitconnectaponzi #savedoug
Hello Doug. You mentioned that hands like 74s, 64s etc would generally be call/call/folds but isn't have a 6 or 7 beneficially when choosing our call down hands as these bloc the nuts? I notice PIO often chooses call down hands that block the nuts over the same hand strength but better kicker when the kicker is irrelevant in terms of how it interacts with the board. Obviously usually these card removal spots work both ways, in that often cards the block the nuts also block some bluffs but in general what would you say is more important when choosing call down combos? Blocking the nuts or not blocking bluffs?
Did I understand this correctly... Call call fold is better when you have hands with a greater chance to improve (ie 64) because it devalues opponent's river barrel? Thus, a hand with less chance to improve makes for a better call due to making your opponent's river barrel more valuable?
I didn't really get that. Given that you call called already, and the river bricked, why would it matter that your hand could've or couldn't have improved? The only thing which comes to my mind would be the blockers, your hands which could've improved block more of your opponent's bluffs, that's why you can fold them. But that wasn't what Doug said there...
Cowtymsmiesznego Appreciate the reply. Are you sure this isn't what he said? I just listen to his river explanation again and I'm pretty sure that's exactly what he is saying. Afterward, he goes on to say that I don't like using hands that can't improve as often as hands to call too and let go on the river. That's the part where I'm a little iffy. Is he recommending the 95 as a call because there's greater value in your opponents bluff...or does he not really care to call with either 95 or 64 and it just happens he prefers 95 in this instance due to reducing opponent's river bluff value. But neither are favored calls...I can't tell with the language used which he means. Or perhaps my limited poker understanding is in the way.
I'm sure he didn't mention blockers during his river discussion. My idea was that if you have a hand like 64, you're blocking your opponent from having 6x (also a gutshot) which he might want to triple barrel with. What doug said (I think) was the following: for your call call folds you should rather pick hands which CAN improve on the river than the hands which cannot (implying that 95 is a better call call call). The reason being, hands that COULD'VE improved on the river are going to be calls more often anyway, because they are going to improve anyway. Let's try some numbers I guess. For simplicity, let's assume we can only have 95 and 64. 95 improves 0% of the time and 64 improves 20% of the time. Let's also assume your opponent always triple barrels. Strategy 1: call call call with 95, call call fold with 64 unless we improve (then obv call) If we have 95, we call 100% of the time, if we have 64, we end up calling 20% of the time. This means that regardless of which of those we have, we are calling at least sometimes. I guess that could be some protection against live reads (the opponent can't 100% bluff us even if he reads that we have 64). I know however, that Doug doesn't care about that. If we think of our entire range, we're simply calling the river shove 60% of the time. Strategy 2: call call fold with 95, call call call with 64. In this strategy, we always call with 64, even if we don't improve, so the result is we call 50% of the time. The question is, why is it better to call more often? I feel like that's what it comes down to, if we break Doug's reasoning down and disregard blockers (which Doug didn't mention). It seems to me that he essentially said something like "It's good to have a balanced strategy for every hand you have", which is kinda similar to typical Doug's "I like both options". But Idk why that would be the case.
Cowtymsmiesznego Admittedly,, I didn't get too far into your examples. But, that's because you said exactly what I said. I think we are agreeing we're just using different words.
In the examples, I was just trying to make sense of what Doug said. And I concluded that he didn't explain his reasoning well enough, which was indeed your claim. More or less, I was just sharing my thoughts about the hand and on what he said.
He had to have a really solid read on him to make a call like that. There just wasn’t enough in the hand to ever make that call. Like the announcer said, A2 was a very possible hand here.
I really don’t get how the commentators say the 10 is irrelevant. I believe ace 10 suited makes complete sense for Tyler to have on the button open, call three bet bet the flop with two overs when Daniel checks a board that shouldn’t be good for his three betting range. Hit top pair top kicker on the turn and think you’re good. If this is way off someone let me know
17:30 - wait, so you're saying that just because the *outcome* of the hand wasn't great, that doesn't mean that the thinking behind the decision was necessarily wrong? I can see the comments section has been lying to me all along.
I really don't understand why calling the river is even an option after you said the decision on the turn is already close. Why should you ever risk your whole stack with middle pair here ? This seems insane too me but probably because I'm playing the micros and people don't bluff there.
Hey Doug, tx again for all the good poker video content, it has very much helped my game over the last year. The increase in my overall results has been quite astonishing. One suggestion: Because of your very rapidly growing Crypto channel, you may get some new subscribers to this channel whom don't even know the basics of NLH at all. Even though your poker game is very far beyond this, maybe you should consider a very basic video detailing how NLH is played. Like hand rankings, how the betting action goes with the flopped cards, turn, river etc. The reason it occurred to me to suggest this, my regular large crew got together to play a low stakes poker tourney over the holiday. One of our co workers whom had been around several of our poker sessions decided she wanted to try for the first time ever. I was trying to help and provide some suggestions, but it quickly became apparent she had zero concept of anything that was happening, so i asked her if she knew the hand rankings, and she said 'No'. Sadly only the eliminated players from our circle were providing suggestions, and while these people are friends, they are about as bad at poker as it gets .. so she got eliminated quickly lol.
love the shirt. I think sometimes when poker geniuses watch a hand they over think it. These guys played it just like a small stakes poker player would play it. Checkers not chess.
I wonder what you will say on this game :D I was in the final table of live tournament with 9 players and 7 should be payed. I was on the 6th position. I had Q♣Q♠ and one guy before me just called. I wanted to 3-bet, but unfortunately one of my chips felt and rolled on the table and then felt back to me. Players started arguing that this should be considered just as call :D And by rules they won the argument, even that it was obviously just mistake and I saw it happen in bigger tournaments where no one would considered it like that. Another two players SB and BB called. And here comes the flop 10♣5♡7♦ unsuted. Guy who was before me get ALL IN suprisingly. It just didnt make sense if he called preflop from bad position. So I was thinking and then called his ALL IN. Other guys folded. And I was right he just showed. A♡5♦. So I had overpair. Then came another card on turn 8♣ and then on river like with 4% chance came third 5♠and he had the set :D Then when I ended 9th the dealer find out that alredy 8th position was payed... I never get out of tournament this bad :_D
This call is beyond my comprehension. Button has so many good hands, and hero calls the river with a 9, which blocks a lot of the bluffs... This can't be right. Can't hero have a lot of 2 pair hands to call with on the river? I mean, if he had 95o, I think he could have 84, 85, T4, T5, 53 that would be much better calls on the river, right? And if he must call with some one pair hands, don't do it with a 9 on your hand!!! Crazy hand, gj!
Watched this FT live and Weinman was making a few loose calls. Still a sick call to make but prob not a good idea to try and bluff the most stationy player at the table lol
Daniels range is pretty capped at one bad pair or A high when he three bets and check calls flop So if he is the type of player that insists on having a calling range his options for calling hands OTR all suck. He cant only call with strong ish hands because its so rare that he gets here with them. Any river call is going to be a pretty bad hand in this situation.
Doug, I disagree with you when you say that a small additional amount is necessarily meaningless. There's a reason why stores have always charged us $9.99 for things instead of just charging $10... it's only a difference of 1c (which you usually end up paying anyway, as it will be rounded up) but psychologically it feels like you're paying $9 instead of $10. Some players WILL use psychological tactics similar to this; some will even make bet sizes that are just difficult to put together / call and get change for, as the additional effort will sometimes make more marginal holdings fold. Sure, psychology like this might not come into play as much at the higher levels... but at the lower levels, playing against players of lower caliber, it's definitely worth considering or, at the very least, not entirely meaningless.
CyberWize wow your dumb if you've ever thought you were paying $9 for something that was $9.99. I can't believe you were dumb enough to just say that. Lmao.
Mate, look into the psychology of it - I'm not saying that that's what I THINK, I'm saying that that's what people's subconscious perspective of it is. If you look into marketing or psychology, that is EXACTLY why stores have always done that. I can't believe you were stupid enough to post a condescending comment without realising any of that.
I feel like that was a really awful call on the river and I'm surprised Doug is saying he leans towards a call. He has cards he wants his opponent to have, he's at basically the absolute bottom of his range. Some of the other guys barrel range got there like A2. Plus he could just be smashed from a million different hands between straights sets and two pairs. So really you are just hoping the guy is going absolute nutso with some random ass shit like K9 that makes no sense when you make that call. Which he was, so it worked out this time but I feel like if we play this hand out a million times based on flop action with their entire ranges considered, the 59 is losing to river jams like 90+% of the time
Overpairs QQ+ are going to four-bet and 88-TT are likely to 4-bet as well, it depends on how both players have been playing throughout the rest of the hands. That's the trouble with a single hand breakdown, it misses a lot of the information the players have been getting from previous experience.
Doug u should do a vid about the new Cinematic based on the book "Mollys Game" .. What was real would you have crushed the game etc ..... ps Tobey maguire sems to be abit of a Cnut
At the end of the day Tyler bluffed off a 100 BB stack and busted in 3. place. I dont like the play. If you are a good player, there must be a better way to use all those chips.
Hey Doug, we always appreciate the videos and info you provide us with here, and we wish you another greater success with the skyrocketing crypto channel! Remember to stay real to your people and to never go behind anyone’s back. Continue hustling, 2018 has just begun. Love from Norway
Crypto is bollocks Doug I've been watching your videos for around 18 months now and really love them and just enjoy getting your feedback in all of your poker analysis as it confirmed to me I was always doing something right in poker as I've always played using blockers and card removal with a gto type strategy. That being said you're poker videos kinda makes my job in the low stakes live cash game world harder lol. So now you have made it harder can you please just get back to making 2-3 videos a week Also I'm promoting upswing poker to all amateurs I come across with a passion for the game and I know one of has already signed up
We get it Doug.. you don't like to bluff on the turn without decent outs on the river and you will rarely just bomb on turn with anything..... I will note that down on my thinker if I somehow ever play you for high stakes.....
Sad when I click on a Doug Polk video and hope it’s about crypto currency. These are still good and my first love. But yeah... the crypto videos are amazing. Keep up the good work, Doug!
always a day one fan. idk how you do it, with 2 channels, practically a video a day on crypto, do upswing poker, being a professional poker player, handling the crypto website, and investing in crypto too. thats alot of stuff in the oven. keep it up
I just want you guys to know that even though my focus is elsewhere right now, I still care about the community we built here and I care about the game of poker.
Currently there is an oppurtuntiy to take advantage of a growing industry, and that means having to spend less time on poker. I will continue to put out content here at a much slower pace (going to be putting up a video a week), and I want to say thanks for the support over the last couple of years.
No worries big Dougie, you get them crypto fish!
I never knew your poker training site was Coin Central and your second UA-cam channel is called Upswing Poker.
Just curious, did you reverse the links in your description on purpose to troll us, or was that an accident? The one described as Upswing Poker points to CoinCentral, and vice versa.
I love hairy balls

Oh great. Some crypto guy talking about poker. Why can’t they just stick to what they know!
Rofl
its a joke boss
JakeIsAwake right back at cha
Stop both being called Jake, it's confusing.
But there is just 1 jake
Let’s be real, the only one that got screwed here is....Brynn Kenny! He’s brother shafted him outta a full head of hair.
You should call this Crypto hands
You gotta take ICM considerations into play late in tournaments. I was in a tournament where there were 5 players left and one guy had one big blind and two guys had exactly the same number of chips.

Still can't believe it.
Will always support this channel, Doug ! Good luck to you !
I couldn't make (essentially) the same call on the bubble of a $100 tournament when I "knew" the guy was bluffing...soooo yeah this guy is my hero.
I do understand that your crypto channel has much more growth potential than this one
but keep them poker vids coming :)))))
He's just balancing his career range. Smart play imo, very GTO
Hey Doug, is that a picture of the BitConnect graph from the last 7 days hanging on your wall?
It is Luke Schwartz's poker win/loss graph
Range math FTW. What a call.
I wonder if a bet of about 5-6 million on the river might have been a better bluff. In that particular spot, the shove feels too much like pressure. Betting pot like that on the river represents basically the nuts only; it's hard to have the nuts.
i felt the same. The all in looks so much like a block.
I would have like to see a 5-6 million bet because it does apply same amount of pressure and if he gets called he still has around 30BB
This just in, BREAKING NEWS: Crypto Polk starts Poker Channel!
Happy to see you making more poker vids Doug.
Just a question when you analyze these hands is it like stream of conscienceness or do you have like a notecard with points to hit? Since watching I have tried to come up with checklist to help decision making. I just didn't know is this what is really going on in your head at the table. #bitconnectaponzi #savedoug
a fluid flow of internal monologue and simultaneous visualisation of hand ranges in the form of a heat maps
We need like 2-3 videos a week. ATLEAST. COME ON DOUG, WE NEED THIS.

Now the WSOP Main Event CHAMPION!!! Congrats Dan!!!
LOL Tyler nods his head like "okay", but he's really thinking HOW TF DID YOU HAVE TO STONES TO MAKE THAT CALL?!
Doug, Have you heard anything about the new Pppoker site/app? Can we trust this site, should we put money into it? Thanks
I can't tell if that graph in the background is the Luke Schwartz graph or the Bitconnect graph...
Hey Doug, your links are swapped in your description for upswing and the crypto channel
Did I understand this correctly...

Glad you did this hand. Haven't watched it yet but I'm excited to see your thoughts on a cool spot
Your links are in the wrong places in the description, Doug.
Where can I buy that shirt?
17:09 that did NOT appear to me to be what the announcers told us it was
Jesus Christ that call on the river was just astonishing
@doug love your 'Bitconnect'memes there the best keep iT up!!
Weinman just wanted a Mercier EPT Sanremo type hero call... that hand probaby flashed through his head at the time lol
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I think that this hand only played out the way it did because of a deal that was made off the table.
Thank you Doug, Grazie mille
Wait, didn't you review this hand before?
Is the photo on the right to make fun of berkeys “poker range” artpiece? If so lmao
17:30 - wait, so you're saying that just because the *outcome* of the hand wasn't great, that doesn't mean that the thinking behind the decision was necessarily wrong? I can see the comments section has been lying to me all along.
DISCONNNNNNNECT!!!!
no way I ever come close to calling that
Shitty plays by both, but the bluff sure looks a lot better than the call down. Risking $700k with 95o OOP, wow...
I really don't understand why calling the river is even an option after you said the decision on the turn is already close. Why should you ever risk your whole stack with middle pair here ? This seems insane too me but probably because I'm playing the micros and people don't bluff there.
This is more like $560k more for this call. The huge chip stack means 3rd if wrong, 1st if right. Rarely, with 1mill. Chips, you will get above 3rd.
Great video! Don’t turn your back on poker. Don’t forget your roots man 😂
Hey Doug, tx again for all the good poker video content, it has very much helped my game over the last year. The increase in my overall results has been quite astonishing.
One suggestion: Because of your very rapidly growing Crypto channel, you may get some new subscribers to this channel whom don't even know the basics of NLH at all.

Guy who was before me get ALL IN suprisingly. It just didnt make sense if he called preflop from bad position. So I was thinking and then called his ALL IN. Other guys folded. And I was right he just showed. A♡5♦.
So I had overpair. Then came another card on turn 8♣ and then on river like with 4% chance came third 5♠and he had the set :D
Then when I ended 9th the dealer find out that alredy 8th position was payed... I never get out of tournament this bad :_D
Tomáš Vorel ya those high rollers can be tough
It's called trips not a set
This call is beyond my comprehension. Button has so many good hands, and hero calls the river with a 9, which blocks a lot of the bluffs... This can't be right. Can't hero have a lot of 2 pair hands to call with on the river? I mean, if he had 95o, I think he could have 84, 85, T4, T5, 53 that would be much better calls on the river, right? And if he must call with some one pair hands, don't do it with a 9 on your hand!!! Crazy hand, gj!
LUCAS NUHRICH on the surface it looks like a bad call that turned out to be right

Peter, so does that mean that he has to call with all of his shitty paired hands?
John Griller no, unless he thinks Tyler is massively over bluffing.
Doug, I disagree with you when you say that a small additional amount is necessarily meaningless.
There's a reason why stores have always charged us $9.99 for things instead of just charging $10... it's only a difference of 1c (which you usually end up paying anyway, as it will be rounded up) but psychologically it feels like you're paying $9 instead of $10.

I can't believe you were stupid enough to post a condescending comment without realising any of that.
0:18 you must be one those people who like their own comment ... ain't lying, I do the same
I miss hearing you say "Bust out the COOKIE JARS!!!". You need to fit that in to your crypto vids too...

Dang this is a game. Great hand and great analysis.
I feel like that was a really awful call on the river and I'm surprised Doug is saying he leans towards a call. He has cards he wants his opponent to have, he's at basically the absolute bottom of his range. Some of the other guys barrel range got there like A2. Plus he could just be smashed from a million different hands between straights sets and two pairs. So really you are just hoping the guy is going absolute nutso with some random ass shit like K9 that makes no sense when you make that call. Which he was, so it worked out this time but I feel like if we play this hand out a million times based on flop action with their entire ranges considered, the 59 is losing to river jams like 90+% of the time
Dreamagain11 he wouldn't be value betting this hands you jyst mentioned tho. He was basically saying he had the nuts or nothing.
Love the Crypto channel, but please don't forget your poker channel bruh!
Bitconnnnnnnnnnnnnnect!!!!!!!
KNOW WHEN TO HODL, KNOW WHEN TO FODL
How did nobody mention overpairs for the whole clip?
Overpairs QQ+ are going to four-bet and 88-TT are likely to 4-bet as well, it depends on how both players have been playing throughout the rest of the hands. That's the trouble with a single hand breakdown, it misses a lot of the information the players have been getting from previous experience.
Because he wouldn't value bet an over pair genius. Smh
That's the best T-shirt I have ever seen, so stylish
3:41 the guy wanted to fart.
The board texture he has to call if he thinks he's good on tunr
Doug u should do a vid about the new Cinematic based on the book "Mollys Game" .. What was real would you have crushed the game etc .....
ps Tobey maguire sems to be abit of a Cnut
Thanks Doug!
Crypto BRO....bro..bro ...BRO
The commentary from the 3 people behind the booth actually makes me want to die
codeMurp :3 Kane and Jamie r both GOATs, but yea coldstone's commentary can be kind of dumb sometimes.
I wonder if Doug Pork can make that call? Hmmm #doubtful
Crypto Channel is going to pass this channel soon man!
Thx again Doug.
Doug, At least give us a video on the Jnandez "thing"
joe sarnak he'd say, um yeah jnandez left and well life goes on.
Doug?? Is that you? Posting under an alias? Oh well, Hey thanks for getting back to me so fast!
There was a video in the upswing Facebook group.
You should call your channel Polker Coins
Yay doug
Bitcoin crashed. Back to Polker Hands.
Jesus Christ that one commentator are annoying. Kalas and the woman are okay, but that 3rd.. Stop talking please.
Both channels are freaking awesome bro ♥🖒 #facts
who's the announcer who talks poker like he's Mike Dentale??
your links in bio are around the wrong way haha nice marketing ;)
truly an amazing call!
At the end of the day Tyler bluffed off a 100 BB stack and busted in 3. place. I dont like the play. If you are a good player, there must be a better way to use all those chips.
Turn sizing is way too small. Should be pot or bigger
Hey Doug, we always appreciate the videos and info you provide us with here, and we wish you another greater success with the skyrocketing crypto channel! Remember to stay real to your people and to never go behind anyone’s back. Continue hustling, 2018 has just begun.
Love from Norway
Crypto is bollocks Doug I've been watching your videos for around 18 months now and really love them and just enjoy getting your feedback in all of your poker analysis as it confirmed to me I was always doing something right in poker as I've always played using blockers and card removal with a gto type strategy.
That being said you're poker videos kinda makes my job in the low stakes live cash game world harder lol.
So now you have made it harder can you please just get back to making 2-3 videos a week
Also I'm promoting upswing poker to all amateurs I come across with a passion for the game and I know one of has already signed up
2/3 commentators on this video should be muted ffs!(is that tallonchick or whatever she's called?). At least i know where Brynn's hair is gone.
"This is certainly based on game flow, not the strength of his hand". So that's why they hired ya, eh?
''TOLLERENE OFFICIALLY BUBBLED THE $50,000 SUPER HIGH ROLLER.''
Following the money, Doug?! How's your bankroll challenge? Fish and chips days are well and gone.
those 2 should never have played a pot that big
I can never understand, why couldn't the guy have 77 or TJ?
Press F to pay respects #savedoug
Damnnnnnn what a hand!!! love it
We get it Doug.. you don't like to bluff on the turn without decent outs on the river and you will rarely just bomb on turn with anything..... I will note that down on my thinker if I somehow ever play you for high stakes.....
dan must have seen tyler do something like this before, some past history, because this call makes little sense otherwise.
Thanks doug!! ❤❤❤👌
Love the Doug.
Missed you Doug
Sad when I click on a Doug Polk video and hope it’s about crypto currency. These are still good and my first love. But yeah... the crypto videos are amazing. Keep up the good work, Doug!
Dougggggg! Miss Youuuu!!!!
When do we get the Polker News about you retiring, Vanessa?
always a day one fan. idk how you do it, with 2 channels, practically a video a day on crypto, do upswing poker, being a professional poker player, handling the crypto website, and investing in crypto too. thats alot of stuff in the oven. keep it up
+skrufy11 thanks man, Appreciated
Dat hair doe O.O
Tyler Kenny is really rubbing it in his bros face that he can grow hair and brynn can’t. #showoff
