The Mercier bluff was actually a great hand all in all. Gabe said it best. A great bluff and an even greater hero call.
99% equity fold
What does that even mean? Have you played poker?
yeah that call was insane...i think the main reason ivey called is because mercier looked like he was on a squeeze play preflop
True
@@OKG2000 Yes, but the ALL-IN doesn't even add up TBH. When you get raised with AA OR KK on a board like that you should slow down thinking SET, not go all-in and if you have a set, you sure don't go all in, so Ivey put him on AK or 88 JJ type hands, and he beats most of those hands, and JJ like AA or KK probably slows down there. Also, there is not a flush draw on that rainbow flop. No jam made sense there TBH.
The one with Doyle winning almost 350k in one hand and saying “alright I won one” cracks me up every time
yeah, the biggest winner in the history of the game saying he's got one on the board lol
He did say he was card dead until this hand.
Winning "almost 350k" ? Bro he won over 400k
@@seankiesling2054 there was probably a side bet he collected on, because he's Doyle Brunson
@@LIONTAMER3D no, he saw under Doyle's name where it said "all-in 340,000" that's how much he had left by the river
"he may not know what running it twice means but if Vanessa asks, it's bad"
that's pure comedic gold. RIP Norm.
Who is norm?
@@MrAllen1994 Norm MacDonald. He was a comedian, old-school SNL cast member, and the commentator for HSP season 7. Very funny guy but apparently had a huge problem with gambling.
Norm was the best at everything he did. Makes me sad hearing his voice.
@@defer114 That, and Cancer. He had a huge problem with cancer
Running it twice or even 100 times does not make a difference in the long run at the end youre even in money
What a great surprise to hear Norm's voice! I had no idea that he had ever commentated poker, but it makes perfect sense. What a legend.
he commentated golf as well, a couple times at least. the 'ole chunk a coal was an eccentric fella, that's for sure!
The all-in move by Vanessa Selbst was one of the worst moves I've seen. Ruffin's eagerness gave away that he had a strong hand, but she still didn't lay down her hand. Unbelievable.
He could've had 9x though, hes an amatuer.
She was probably hoping he made an amateur move with 9s. Too bad Doyle folded before the turn, would have tripled up the guy.
absolutely, paused instantly after that and came here to comment that! TERRIBLE to watch! he couldnt even wait to get the chips in and hes a super conservative player.. no game sense! "he played that well" not HE DIDNT! wtf are these guys above me talking about?
Is that Norm MacDonald calling the game? Sounds exactly like him
@@eattabagovdix7169 yes

This season got ridiculed alot, but i do like it
It's Norm MacDonald.
@@mysteriousdoge1298 Norm McDonald is J9o.. Gabe Kaplan is AKs.

Norm: "Alarm bells have to be going off"
Selbst: "I'm all in"
OOPS
Yeah, I've never been impressed with her... typical lesbian thinks she's always got something to prove around men.
Sometimes with high pocket pair you feel like you have to win so you pull moves like this
Yeah that was just terrible. I mean he just couldn't wait to get his chips in there out of turn.
Out of turn min-raise from OMC. 33 is the absolute bottom of his range there.
Exactly
“I won one!” 😂😂😂😂😂 -Doyle scooping the biggest pot in the history of the show
Recently got some big interest in poker and I'd always known that Norm was a big gambler, but man, hearing him commentate some poker games is awesome. Genuinely great to hear his voice here
Unfortunately they had him on a such a tight leash though, he was so safe and toeing the line, that it ended up making it hard to listen to by the end. It was Norm's voice, but it really wasn't Norm at all. It was more like someone reading a cookie-cutter script in a Norm impression.
They had a such a goldmine fall into their hands and they completely wasted the opportunity by neutering him like they did. I honestly don't know why they even went to Norm in the first place if they were not going to allow him to be even slightly himself.
The commentary went downhill rapidly when they split the Gabe/AJ dynamic and, unfortunately, it kills me to say it, but it went even further downhill when they brought in Norm to do it. He honestly could have saved the entire show if they just let him be Norm. Instead, it died immediately after.
Gabe Kaplan was the most boringest commentator I ever had to listen to though. I really loved his sense of humor sometimes, but he always sounded SOOOOOO boring and monotone.
Gotta admit, I didn't even notice Norm at first. But of course, when I read these comment, I recognized him. I agree, I think they should have let him speak more freely.
"Ace of spades, prettiest card in the deck". Gotta love Norm.
You can find all the episodes on CZcams.
It was the hypocrisy that ruined it... The producers didn't own doghouses and worked under a bridge.
"You have king high? I have two aces" lol
Phil Ivey is a savage for picking up Hellmuth’s stack as soon as he got up 😂
Well he won and Phil H turned his back to leave. So of course he is going to grab the money he won. I would of assumed he was going to take off and start cursing. Not much of savagery there.
@@misterclownface Yeah, somebody might have stolen it.
he was taking it in case Garrett Adelstein turned up and asked for a refund
@@antzooma hahaha
@@misterclownface Hellmuth looked too dejected, especially with that table of guys seeing him get cooled like a icicle.
I think the award goes to Boneta with Vanessa second. Dude called a 5 bet and jammed against the tightest player with KQ hi and no draw LOL.
the stupidness oscar goes to ...BONETA
Indeed, Hellmuth got unlucky that he was up against a better flush draw. Mercier's bluff put Ivey in a tough spot and may work sometimes.
Just a 4 bet or a nybr but still by far the most ridiculous play. Not even waited to have a backdoor fd to make that ridiculous play.
Vanessa jamming with queens when that OMC raises her with his hand practically face up is quintessential Vanessa Selbst
It was ugly. I think that Boneta one was even worse as Chan raised over the top into a crowd of like five people. WTF is that guy doing going all-in with King high after that much aggression.
goes to show even one of the best tourney players makes mistakes
@@spittlefish5208 honestly can't tell which is worse lol.. has to be Selbst.. Ruffins couldn't keep a straight face if his life depended on it.
@@spittlefish5208 LOL true. And he didn't just raise over the top pf, he LIMP raised over the top lol😄
@@spittlefish5208 boneta one was stupid. He could've called and then represented set. He didn't even have runner flush draw lol
Boneta's might be one of the biggest punts ever caught on TV.
Lol his reaction was priceless
Agreed. Biggest punt I've ever seen
I can't believe the guy who limp-raised to 30bb preflop then jammed in 50 more into multiple people on the flop actually had a hand and didn't fold to a shove getting 3-to-1.
Johnny was getting about 2.18 to 1... He'd need to win 31.5% of the time to call.
(Against a set, aces would win 8.9% & tie 1.6% of the time anyway.)
150k In pot goes all in worth 200k erm... i can see he was trying to get just under double his money back.
"he's got outs" *is 75% favourite* 😂😂
Phil Laak getting uncomfortable when Ivey tells Jason Mercier he only wants to run it once gets me every time 😂
Norm: "He may not know what running it twice means but he knows if Vanessa asks, it's a bad idea."
That wasn't Norman who said that.
@@AKing43 you are mistaken .. it was norman who said that 20:13 this is definitely norman's voice and he is the only commentator on that segment
Its really not a bad idea though, it doesnt change anyones equity
@@paulg6274 I don't think that's what Norm meant. Norm was basically saying that anything Selbst suggests is always going to be a bad idea, since she's such a known punter.
Bad idea that she even plays poker 😄 all the clues was there and she still ignored them
16:46 I knew Norm MacDonald was a poker player (and obviously a comedy legend) but I'd never heard him call live poker before.
i had to google it. I had my doubts but I'd recognize that voice anywhere.
What? I dont know his comedy routines but he was atrocious as HSP commentator.
I had no idea. I thought you were kidding at first.
@@ajlib How dare you besmirch Norm Macdonald. You sir, are an old chunk of coal.
@@ajlib Wrong you I feel like you just don’t get norm.
@12:36. Gabe is GOAT commentator .( On Jamie Gold's had ) " He is surrounded by Aces. Aces to the left of him , Aces to the right . And a better Jack in the middle "
7:19 Phil calling it a day here is one of the reasons he is still around today and still in great shape. If you're having a terrible day, it's optimal to just walk.
That's actually what separates the pros from the amateurs. Amateurs, like myself, either win or go home broke. This is why I've confined myself to just watching, I have no control of my emotions.
Phil is around today thanks to his child attitude which gives him (sponsors) free-rolls in every tournament.
Hes a complete donk in cash games and one of the worst online players in history.
He has lasted because he dosent put up his own money.
If he did he would be broke. Divide his cashes 24 mil by # of years played 33 and u get less than a mil a year. Now subtract the millions lost in cash, the 10s of millions on lost tournaments, travel $, and Phil would b living in a box.
Phil Hellmuth, the Patron Saint of Idiots.
@@Kennedysports90s Jeez, Antonio Esfandiari. I said it's one of the reasons. ONE of the reasons.
But I'll tell you what, Antonio, Phil beats exactly people like you who have such a big ego and think he's such a fucking idiot you'll call him down to the River with third pair on a wettest board because you cannot bear the thought that you could get bluffed one time by someone who you think is lame.
I do not agree with this comment. A true professional should be emotionless after losing hands in which he did the right thing. If you are actually playing bad and making terrible decisions, that's the time you walk off, not when you get coolered one hand.
@@Kennedysports90s are u nuts?
Donk in cash games?
Isn't he 7-0 against Daniel N and Antonio E ?
They both played him 1 on 1 to shut him up, correct? So what happened?
I despise phil but for you to say some of that stuff is STUPID!
That KQ punt was painful. Talk about a gift to Chan
Laliberte and Doyle Brunson shaking hands after Doyle winning the pot is a class act.
Never get tired of watching the infamous Boneta punt
absolutely tragic. says he was repping a set but he almost always flats a set there to allow chans bluffs to stay in. just tragic lol
Vegas and the Mirage was the only thing on his mind
Boneta did the best move he could ever do. Give his chips away to someone who actually knows how to play😂😂
@@AcesHunteRRR yeah Chan played this like a true pro. Flatting the original raise was risky but I guess his instincts told him Negreanue would squeeze BB a bunch and he's good enough to fold his hand if the board comes sketchy and players start piling money in the middle. Also if he hits a set no one will ever put him on AA so credit to Chan for setting this up
The funny thing is that laak hand was close to face up. Flat's and see the pot odds to flat smiling knew he was putting 21k just to flop a set. In that spot 3's or 2's doesn't change nothing and could be a monster pot for Laak.
Rip Norm, you're one of the greats and already missed.
I miss that old chunk of coal.
HE'S NOT DEAD
@@ImNotNormAll I keep a pie on my windowsill just in case he'll come back for it.
@@AKing43 😔
There's numerous credible accounts Norm was terribly inappropriate toward women
Not even sure these are really punts, tbh. Was expecting the Selbst v. Prahlad J7o blast off..
That was The Big Game, er sorry the big PUNT
Boneta straight up punted 200k with K high sir.
@@ep3578 ah, my bad
most are coolers. only punts in the video is guy with A5 (tbh it depends if hes doing it for value or as a bluff. if its for value it's terrible, if it's as a bluff I guess it's only... bad?) but the KQ is straight up an insane punt.
@@LucasLincolnn Vanessa was a terrible play because the guy with the set check re-raised early without letting Antonio even decide. Hers was almost as bad as the last dude with KQ. Guy making the A5 play was really a good play. If Doyle hadn't been running so poorly for most of the day, he probably doesn't call there.
24:07 "good read" i laughed so hard the first time I saw this
Doug Polk really punted there
R.I.P. Norm Macdonald. He was great everywhere he worked.
I can't believe I didn't notice that was Norm MacDonald announcing the Selbst/Ruffin hand!! Never knew he announced poker.
"He might not know what running it twice means, but he knows if Vanessa asks it's a bad idea."
Such a legend. I'd love to find more Norm poker commentary.
"I wish I had just waited for aces... instead of actually doing it." - Jason Mercier.
Jason “I wish I waited for Aces” Mercier
That play was still superb. Even when called still has decent equity, back door flush, A high and inside straight. Ivey was running like God that season.
That Boneta hand was painful to watch.
@@lukamilas8648 yeah some of the plays here are pretty legit. Jason's play is the best. Ivey should have never raised that flop. He almost got bluffed off.
Still a great play though judging by Ivey's reluctance to call I'd say it almost worked.
@@KROGANLovesKittensAndPuppies Who knows, it may have even worked if Mercier had another $100k behind and Ivey wasn't getting 3:1 on a call..
KQ easily the biggest punt. Not even a backdoor flush draw lmao
Just absolutely nothing on the flop 😄 did he just wanted to go home or something.
@@richard7645 nah i respect it. It’s the Isildur1/Durr way to play. When you trust your read you just go with it no matter the “optimal EV” cards to wait for. That’s poker as it was back in the 19th and early 20th century,,, sliiiick.
Insane lol
@@jackbrady9738 trust your read? Chan was shouting AA from the rooftops in an era where people would still limp/3bet AA. If chan isn't calling without a set, he'd never be able to defend vs a single shove on that flop.
@@WhatAreYouNew i was saying i respect the time and that style of poker where they just trusted their gut instead of thinking like a bot autistic

You work for his tribe . Freedom from the sky.
Jamie’s “oh woah” when he sees guys hand always cracks me up
Couldn't believe how weak Guy's hand was. Jamie was shocked.
Yeah that was a poorly played hand.
When players at a table ask me a question, I give an answer that has nothing to do with the question/ For example when Selbst asked Do you have a good hand, I would answer "My favorite dog's name was Tasha".
so basically you have no friends
24:24 Doyle Brunson 😂
After the game Doyle told Boneta he’s got a permanent seat at Bobby’s room.
Boneta move is just way too funny. The way he watch at Laak before unleashing is "I'm allin". And then "good read". This is way beyond anything we ever saw.
Vanessa, all day every day. He raised out of turn on the flop, basically guaranteeing he had a set. His entire demeanor was screaming "I have a huge hand!" and she still raised all-in.
Vanessa always punted. If she could've controlled her game she would've been a really great player, but the punting destroyed everything.
J7
This makes no sense. Vanessa always punted? Yea she definitely made a bad play here but your kinda speaking out of your ass. Your saying that probably based off the J7 hand and this, maybe a few more, but that didn’t “destroy everything”. She “controlled her game” enough to make over 11 million dollars, stays the #1 top female poker player and now works for a large investment management firm. Pretty ironic how your name is defeat ignorance, because that’s literally all you just shit out over your keyboard.

You wanna run it 3 times?
Ha. Well summed up. That one will haunt him to the end.
Hellmuth: want to run it 3 times?
Ivey: Uhh, no.
Mercier: i only have ace high, wanna run it twice?
Ivey: naa im only running it once
Thats why i love Ivey. I never understood why people so far ahead would run it multiple times. Why give the underdog that many more chances to hit? Is it just to keep it friendly or something? Surely it cant be because of variance.
Bro it's literally the same % whether they're super ahead or super behind, 87% is 87%. By running it twice you are halving the amount of variance i.e halving the amount of hands you have to play to "realise" your expected value
@@jackbrady9738 i just read an article that says whether you run it once, twice or ten times your odds stay the same. It said running it twice is like playing the one hand today and running into the exact situation tomorrow. So it seems youre correct. My question is how/why? I cant remember the hands and dont want to go back through the video so ill just use this as an example.
Say Player 1 flops a flush draw and gets it all in. Player 2 calls. They decide to run it twice. Player 1 obviously has the 9 outs to hit his flush and win. He bricks the first board. Would his odds of hitting a flush on the second board not go up bc he has those same 9 outs with 4 less cards in the deck? I dont see how that can be the same as playing the hand today and again tomorrow bc the underdogs odds to hit his flush go up on the second board. Right? Im generally curious on why this isnt the case so if you have the time could you explain it? Because in my mind running it twice always gave the underdog better odds to win bc he has the same outs with less cards in the deck.
@@mydogniko i never thought about that. say it came the opposite however, and the flush hit 2 of their cards. when they run it the second time they only have 7 of their outs remaining. so i think it evens out- im not sure though, you may be right. great thinking
@@jackbrady9738 youre point is valid. Thats why when its a flip or 60-40 i can see running it twice. But i always thought people did it for 2 main reasons. 1- to keep it more friendly. Most of these guys are friends and losing large pots suck and 2- so if the person ahead does lose on the first draw, variance says he should win on the second draw and they chop. Its a way to ensure getting sucked out on doesnt screw you over. However, my point is dont you want to get it in as a 4:1 favorite? If you lose you lose but why give the dog a second or 3rd chance to chop, when each time running it betters his chances? Thats how ive always seen it.
All that being said youve seen the video where hellmuth runs it 4 times against the amateur guy that doesnt play well right? Cant remember his name. Hellmuth lost 3 out of 4 when the guy had like 5 outs total or something crazy. One of my favorite videos bc everyone just eats into Phil lol.
Edit: Hellmuth vs Ernest Wiggins is the clip i was referring to. Just popped up in the YT algorithm.
@@mydogniko I'll give you an example. Let's say we're betting on dice, and it's impossible for the die to land on the same side more than once. If you need it to land on a 6, and I say we roll it 6 times, that means I'm guaranteed to win 5/6, and you'll win once. If we only roll once, you could win and although you're a giant underdog.
I remember the Hellmuth Ivey hand from years back. Hellmuth was on massive tilt from the hands before. I think he was down $50k or something after 3 hands with AJ or better. No way anyone gets away from a Jack high flush draw and open ended straight draw on that board, in that kind of mood, after raising pre-flop.
The Rolex hand is a hilarious classic. Vintage Chan. I feel Doug Polk could have mustered a fold against Ruffin though.
Not just that, after that initial bleeding of the stack, he somehow lost minimum against nuts v sec nuts. Then, this happened.
There is no way anyone is not going broke here.
Lmfao great analysis

“He called the raise with Jack 5 honey.”
- Phil Ivey
Idk if the first clip with Gus and Daniel is a fail or punt at all. Just Daniel being Daniel preflop and Gus having no reason to think he's back on that flop with an over pair.
It's not a punt. Gus just played the hand horribly.
look at Doyle man so inspirational
Johnny Chan was very generous to run it three times.
No punting video could be complete without the master of punting JRB!
He knew he was massive though lol
It had nothing to do with being generous. Chan didn't want the variance risk of Boneta getting lucky on him. Then after offering to go twice he realized that if he just went 3 times, he could pretty much bank a 90k profit minimum everytime, as Boneta will never get 2/3. He'll still usually win it all, but this way he guarantees himself a big profit on the hand.
Gabe Kaplan is the GOAT poker commentator , all of the stuff he says is top notch
Any video with Vanessa in it is a punt video. She is always getting schooled, I swear!
I mean I agree but she didn’t really get schooled here that was just a cooler. The guy doesn’t really know what he’s doing he’s just a huge stack billionaire, he would of done the same with tens or jacks and doubled Vanessa up
If she wanted to represent the nuts she shouldn’t be talking or thinking for so long.
she always took her tournament aggression putting noobs in a tourney life decision into the cash games against pros i never understood it, it never worked.
@@ThatsTheWun That was in no way a cooler.
3:45/ 3:46 - I didn't notice Hansen's shaky hand when putting down the cash until just now. It's amazing how much of that solid poker face and solid body language just leaves the body after losing a huge all-in.

Best hand is seeing Vanessa get felted by the old time amateur and his set of 3s
The Ivey call with 9s against Mercier.... he soul read that dude.
Welcome to Ivey's world! haha
Does ivey wanna run it twice 😆
Love these old cash games!
I love this Hellmuth clip so much. So great.
It shows why J5 suited is such an awful hand. And shows the size of Hellmuth's ego, that he thinks (1) he can play it correctly (2) against Phil Ivey.
Best move was the Mercier 3bet cause he has a crap ton of equity with a wheel draw and backdoor nut hearts.
Selbst was a punt, but because they all know Ruffin is a whale, she leveled herself like us mid stakes grinders vs an OMC 😭
Her trying to convince herself the guy, who was so excited he acted out of turn, was making a move really reminded me of myself like 10 years ago. Dusted off a lot of stacks trying to convince myself shit that there is no way on earth is happening.
With mercier I think the best play is to call ivey's raise bcz you are never going all in with any of the over pairs in case ivey is raising with some stupid hand bcz there are literally no draws on that board other than 45 which mercier blocks.
The ruffin hand is not a punt I saw him making crazy stupid plays all over the episodes. he is the kind of guy that doesnt fold top pair. So with an overpair as played you have to go broke in that spot.
@@omarjaved6087 he acted out of turn, its a punt
Selbst was biggest punt imo .. He acted out of turn because he loved his hand so much... She should have been good enough to let it go
@@onedayatatime007 I don't even understand how he acted out of turn. If Antonio had checked originally and Ruffin bet then I'd understand him not knowing Antonio was in the hand. But he literally called a bet from Antonio. Did he forget how his $17k got in the middle in the first place? lmao
The Doyle hand is amazing.... If he didn’t turn a diamond ♦️ he has to fold
It most likely kept him in.
What a sick hand on 7.30
It's so mind blown this guy plays 10 years ago like I do nowadays..
But in this hand I don't like the size of squeeze by Mercier preflop, I would do at least 26k.
And on the flop he goes for half pot which doesn't represents any strong hand so I really like the value raise by Iphey putting him on some brodways and negate equity from hitting one of them on turn / river.
But I also reeeeeealy like the bet 3bet push by Mercier with his backdoor and gutshot... He put iphey on a real test and in fact he feals crushed by an over pair "if u got me, u got me"...
What a play.
Prolly if he would done 1/3 and then push iphey can fold.. Maybe..
Hearing Norms voice brings me so much happiness.
Boneta clearly went all in to show off, with that Dwan-style tank and "all-in"
hahaha, yes, it's so funny to watch him prepare his move with his pro stare to phill laak.
there are a lot of coolers in this video, the only real ''fail'' I can see is the KQ insanity.
Also a lot of good bluffs and then catches
"he may not know what running it twice means, but he knows if Vanessa asks, it's a bad idea!"" hahahaha. 😂😂😂
the title wasn't deceiving! i'm amazed and a subscriber
Phil Ivey vs Mercier, I feel like Phil got a huge live tell from him when he waved those chips towards him leading to his call. Could be wrong though but definitely looked like some Phil Ivey magic.
Well do you think Phil would wave his chips like that only to pull them back? He was already calling at that point.
I believe Phil was still reading him at that point.
I believe that too
He said all in with softest voice I've ever heard from him.
So basically this must be a Jamie Gold compilation...
Says the guy who isn’t main event champion 😂 😂 😂
@@lkb4781 How do you know I'm not Hellmuth or Brunson? Now I'm thinking you're actually Jamie🤣🤣🤣

"You have the aces Sammy!"
@@richard7645 Haha I know right. ENOUGH!!!
I need more Norm calling games, where are these tapes??
Nowadays everyone is a pro after watching these😄
I was expecting to see the 7 2 vs K K hand from Season 4...
U put ivy in a rough spot u expect him to run it more than once for yall?
I see your in Dallas, can you please tell me of a Chiropractor that is part of your team or took that class that is in Greenville sc?
Erik Boneta - the guy at high school who was taller than everyone else, played football, pretended to have lots of girlfriends, bullied smaller kids, skipped math and English and some other classes..... but really he was weak inside. He's yet to find his true self and profession.
Norm is the best poker commentator there ever was. Brilliant word usage and accurate analysis
Talking of word usage, can some lip-reader tell me what Daniel says at the end of

@@TonyEnglandUK I don't know why but it kinda looks like he says "folding this hand would he completely retarded" remember this was back when you could get away with that
@@mikeyslots_ I think you nailed it, thanks Mikey
If I remember that Lalberte used to give most of his winnings to charity’s or he set up some foundation where he put his winnings into to help children?🤔
Listening to Norm's sweet voice makes us all the real winner.
picture quality is clean!
How is Vanessa a pro? 🤦🏾♂️😂
I’m not a Phil fan but he actually played that ha d perfectly. If Ivey doesn’t hit the K he folds to that bet
Selbst
The punt by Boneta is exactly why I love and play poker.
I love Daniels "yeah that's probably gonna win" at 24:10 for the bullets Vs king queen.
