Blowing A Once In A Lifetime Chance (2018 Main Event World Series of Poker)

- This might be one of the craziest hands ever to go down so late in such a prestigious poker tournament. This hand from the 2018 WSOP results in millions of chips entering the pot from 3 different players, and only one of them having a decent hand. With nearly 9 million dollars up top, and a $40,000 payjump after one more elimination, this is the highest of high stakes poker. What the heck is going on here?
This originally aired on PokerGo. You can watch more 2018 WSOP Main Event coverage there: www.pokergo.com

Doug trolling us all showing the full tank w the k's 😂😂😂.
If the gameshow is "who DOESN'T want to be a millionaire" then technically call was the correct answer lol.
You don't win the game by making correct answers. You win "Who doesn't want to be a millionaire" by making incorrect decisions.
You have to make the right wrong answer to not be a millionaire
The fact 130 didn’t work out this is a flawed comment shows how the world is getting dumber 😂
That's what I was thinking.
@@jimduggan8962 exactly, but doug highlighte fold as the correct answer.
I was so rooting for Gerrits to fold the kings and see his face after seein 10 7 and 9 8 :D .
He was never folding just had to wait bc phan only calls with aces maybe queens so he didn’t want to jam and get snapped off and miss the ladder
@@coltonforeman2397 obviously...
@@coltonforeman2397 also Phan probably only calls aces and the other kings
"HOW TO MAKE A 3 MINUTE ANALYSIS LAST 20 FKN MINUTES" By Doug Polk...
Lol.yeh
..headfuck ala carte
Lmao man true when you watch these videos its a 1 min video extended to 20 minutes
Blockers blocking blockers with runner runner outs to situations with a good balance of fold equity.
yeah he should cut out the part where the guy is just tanking with KK. no reason to include it in the video
Hey Doug, have you ever considered selling Upswing-branded foam fingers and calling them Polker Hands?
lmao amazing
he only make foam rakes , they are better
he needs to make more of those, cause after all thats better
Yea! Foam middle fingers!!!
That's a really good idea Riz U !!!
I wish Tony G was there to call the clock and berate him into the sunset on a trike.
8:27 Souza explain his rational in portuguese: 'I'm very short and I don't have an ace, if I win I will triple up'.
As well as short, he's also quite fat.
The brazilian guy just remembered he had completely forgotten an appointment at the dentist that day.
I thought it was a haircut as he was leaving his 70s hairdo at the barber at around 5pm
Thanks for all the recent content dougie
+1
Feels good to have the old doug back.
@Damon Hargrave Nopes that'd be strap-on-doggie
leaving the 5-minute tank in there was A1 trolling
its too bad this still exists in live play
“venturing boldly into the streets” lmao
So you are not a phan of the button's play?
I see what you did there (I waited months to write this comment in the section comment! )
Hey Doug, you can edit the 4 min tank the guy goes into with KK. Thanks.
megamocked lol
That hand was mind boggling lol ima give em slack since they are likely exhausted from the grind but that tank tho!! Snap all in... like, every time.
Civil Thinking well snap shoving KK is stupid there.... you want calls! Tank for 2mins then shove to make it look like you might have a way worse hand. Or slowplay it a bit....
matty dodd e said he tankked to help,him bubble since they weren’t hand for hand. Actually a nice gesture.but he still had a guy after h8m so it also might have been to mess with him too.
1. Stall the game a bit for the obvious reason that your own tourney life could be on the line and there is a 40k USD payjump if someone busts in the meantime
2. Stall to make it look like you have a tougher spot than you have, like (TT), JJ, QQ, AK
Snap all in just seems so stupid in so many ways. 40k is still 40k if you are having AA vs KK or in another way gets bad beated
Nick Shulman is freaking hilarious. "I believe he's ventured deep into the streets." LMAO
This guy with kk having a nap or what
he was tanking so that another person could bust out before the payjump. because if he calls quick against aces, hes going home. 40k less than he could have.
Pobody's Nerfect he had the short stack guy covered though by a huge margin, so for the hand at play and even subsequent hands considerations it is irrelevant for him. In fact, his speech is arguably collusion: by confessing he time banked in order to help THIS specific opponent ladder up instead of someone at another table, he is guilty of collusion. Because of the unique situation and the fact that that didn’t happen (nobody else busted) nobody looked into it further. Had they, it could’ve been grounds for a penalty. Since the original 4better had him covered, tanking would be a legitimate decision against him for pay jump considerations for himself, which is obviously just fair strategy. He will be up against AA from a cold 4bet enough that it’s not an instant all in (plus if he gets called with AK or QQ or whatever he can still lose between 20-30% of the time approx.) so he might’ve considered folding, but I doubt it.
IMO he was telling a lie to the guy saying he tanked for his benefit to make him feel better, which is still technically against the rules but based on the situation, I don’t think anyone would put up a fuss. They would have to somehow think it was a chip dump to Gerrits to seriously pursue anything IMO.
@@leftphilange69 Except the guy who 4bet had him covered, so he tanked for his own potential pay jump in case Phan had him beat (or called with the worse hand and sucked out). He's just telling Sousa that tanking ended up benefiting him too.
idc what the reason is, he tanked WAAAYYY too long. he has 3 decisions, 1 of them a 1% or less chance of making (folding). so basically it's either call or all-in. and as doug alluded to, phan has garbage a lot of the time, so calling invites him to suck out or bluff garretts out. i know ppl take longer than they need to make decisions at big moments, but nearly 5 minutes is hurting everyone else by not allowing them to see more hands, and it's quite doubtful it's gonna help him any. we don't "help" other players, that is shear collusion as zach said.
@@ketchup143 seeing more hands also means higher chance of getting coolered before 40k pay jump. Only person it could possibly hurt is an aggressive mega stack who was running everyone over. Phan would have snapped called his all in with AA or AK and would have got there. He could have called him with QQ or JJ and sucked out. Why play for days in a huge tourney and in biggest spot assume opponent has no hand? Tanking only helped his own cause. He wasn't doing it to help Souza so there is no collusion. You'd be a dumbass to get this far in a tournament and not use everything possible to get further.

Hey Doug did you know that everything you do at the poker table conveys information?
Nah, Doug plays loosey goosey, even seen him eating a sandwich while checking his phone
Can someone explain this joke to me
Does that include wearing the upholstery from your grandfather’s couch?
@@AD-nb7gd It's something Dnegs said in his masterclass videos and everyone thinks they are hilarious for commenting it on every single poker video.
Easy shove for 98
Realize your equity
Went for value
Hahaha luv it!
easy shove if 98s... else it's good fold.
its garbage.... even suited. hes not shoving for fold equity, hes actually adding incentive for other players (previous raisers) to continue light and and hands probably still better than 98.
Gerrits tanks for minutes for the 40k pay jump in case Phan has AA and then the short stack Souza who has 9 high calls the clock on him LOL
One of all time dumbest hands from Souza.
This is standard Brazilian poker.
mosshark I was thinking the same. In general brazilians are absolutely horrible in poker, definitely in the top 3 worst if not THE worst.
search in online rakings , wich country is the best on online poker ? ure welcome. VAMOOOOOOOOOOOOO . ( see the last sunday million winner)
another bitch crying that people cheat online, i bet you think the same on the russians hahahah loser
@Toogood444 no dont ban them , let them bring more money
I thought you meant Bilzerian.
Sousa: “Hey will you hurry up? I wanna make sure I’m the biggest loser in the tournament.”
98o, facing a 4 bet... sounds like a 5-bet to me
Adam C fail it's a fold
Adam C ok Vanessa
LMAO
Damon Hargrave He had over ten bbs left, could have waited for better cards than pure trash. He even admitted he made a huge mistake because he thought he had only 3 bbs left
@Damon Hargrave I know this is an old comment, stop thinking you know it all and go study more, this hand is not even a debate to any decent SnG/tourney player.
I thought this guy was sleeping the whole time lmao couldn't stop laughing
Doug, as soon as he was eliminated he gave an interview to a Brazilian poker site and he said that he had 3 blinds so it was a good spot to try to make a comeback. That was his mistake, he thought he had only 3 blinds, he actually had almost 9. It wasn’t a technical mistake, he miscount his stack. Huge mistake anyway.
Gabriel Junio ok that makes a lot more sense. I thought he might have had a personal emergency or something. He looked exhausted, tired, and worn out regs4dless
Was there an ante?
Exactly, he pointed out that on his interview too, he was feeling really tired of playing for hours for 7 days straight
Damon Hargrave I think he would never call that bet if he knew he had 9 blinds, there was only one player left for a $40k payjump, and he certainly could wait for a better spot
With 8 or 9 BB's at a 7-handed table, there will be way better spots in the near future to double up and get right back in the game. 89o is not a hand that gets lucky multiway; he needs a suited connector or a pocket pair or even Ace-rag. He picked a lame hand in a lame spot when he could have waited literally another 15 or 20 minutes for both a payjump AND a better spot.
The moment I saw the Brazilian flag, i knew what was coming.
He studies at the university of Mike Postle
Brazilians are the worst
Hahahahah
You all are donks and definitely dont play online poker 😂
This is called street poker in Brazil
Top content as always. Just one point though...if the game show is 'Who DOESN'T want to be a millionaire?' then surely the 'correct' answer is to call. As those who DO want to be a millionaire would do the normal thing. And fold.
Nah as folding would mean you stand no chance to more than quadruple up, which you need to take that risk to become a millionaire.
If he folds here he barely ever gets to the last nine players. Therefore folding is the answer for not wanting to be a millionaire.
I see you have no sense of humour, Meredith
whois meredith?
Can you show me, Uranus, the logic of your statement?
Bigga Winna Crapsa the logic being to become wealthy you need to take risks. It does fall down however because the risks should be sensible. You don’t risk in situations you are very likely dominated. You wait for a spot that aren’t.
i started this video before a shower. before getting in i laugh remembering " Doug shows the whole tank ".. 9 minutes and a relaxing soak later im just now hearing " all in " as i get out of the shower 🤣🤣🤣 these poker videos you made will go down in history, Doug 🍻
Gerrits was covered by button so he was tanking on a 4 buyin payjump. Obviously the SB has no clue about anything going on in relation to the tournament so he further lights more money on fire by calling the clock on him
Yeah that was pretty retarded.
Yeah. I think mathematically his calling clock has even less value than the call of the bet while holding 98o.
Good lord!
I really don't see, given the pay bump in real money why go in at that point? Yes, this is a bit results oriented history, but still if you know a real money pay bump is on the way, become a rock, try to make it to the next pay bump and then jam instead of going all in with a hand against a 4 bet.
in some cases calling the clock might make the player more likely to fold? which is definitely what he wants, to be heads up with Phan
Since the game show is "Who DOES NOT want to be a millionaire" the correct answer was to call since the point of the show is to NOT win $.
Skirmisher STFU son.
I was waiting for the sponge bob “12 hour later” cut away.
That ridiculous tank with KK is worst than the call with 98
ruffymaru you need to realise that the next person out was a big pay jump so the stalling was tactical in case there was an all in on the other table. It was totally warranted, kings could’ve been bad beat so he had to ensure he got the maximum pay out possible
Wonderful hand break down. Right on point. I do enjoy your video's of hand break down. Good job!! Nice to see you back!
another fun part of this hand is that the shortstack actually calls the clock on gerrits. its almost as if he doesnt like money
maybe he suddenly remembered he had something cooking in his kitchen
Can we talk about the amount of unneccesary tanking going on in this hand? Make a decision ffs!
Daniel Barnak it’s so bad. Worst part of live poker at the moment
he says at the end of the video, he took so long for the chance someone busted at another table. It's a 40k payjump
yeah, i just saw it, my bad!
He says very clearly, albeit in broken English, that he took so long because of the pay jump. Meaning that if someone from another table were to get knocked out before he makes his decision, that jumps his payout up another $40,000. So there was 40,000 reasons to take a long time.
Yea defenitely not unnecessary. You must be a fish.
Haha the Belgian talking to the Dutchman in Dutch (probably not allowed) at the beginning "He's just lighting 200k on fire" :D
I don't even play poker bit Doug's commentary is really entertaining so I subscribed today. Thanks Doug keep em comin
Thanks for doing poker vids during the series, Doug. it's appreciated
Doug can't tell you how much I appreciate your poker insight into these hands. Great to see how the pro's play and their thought process! Keep it up!!!
Thank you for staying up to date!
Gotta be honest, I don’t play poker but really enjoy your videos. You make everything so easy to grasp. I prolly wouldn’t want to be at a table playing against you though.
Gameshow bit was awesome!!
Bro I’ve never seen someone sit with KK motionless for that long lol wtf
this guys videos are just great, thank you !!
Awesome vlog yet again.
As always Doug, great analysis, comedy and discussion, keep the videos coming. And good luck in where ever your pursuits take you. JC
7/10 is your buddy DNegs "favorite" hand ...
Brian B, I don't get all these wild "favorite" hands of the pros. I REALLY don't. Somebody, I forget who, mentioned awhile back the my favorite hand should always be AA. Not A8. Lol I noticed a few years ago, I win 75% of the time when I play this hand. IDK why. I just seem to. Suited or not doesn't seem to matter.
JT suited, AJ , and big slick my fav hands. No silly shit. JT is the worst of em but it's still not as bad as Doyle's 10/2 or dwans 7/2
Usually, some of those pros have those hands bc those are the hands they won championships/tournies with or won big hands with them that gave them a large lead at some point in their lives.
people saying "I win most of the time when I play XX" are retarded. the odds will even out, moron!
he busted One Drop with 107
Ahh so nice to have daily content again
this video pure gold. so funny, good work
Did dude fall asleep In that sweet jacket
Souza really taking a few pages out of Vanessa's book here. Both men such massive fan favorites it really hurts watching them get burned on what can only be described as just very unlucky boards.
Shadzilla leave Doug out of this
Shadzilla don't forget Dwan
Tom Dwan does this kinda shit heads up, not 4 handed.
You know what, Doug? I HAVE been enjoying the content lately and I have therefore gone ahead and subscribed. Honestly, I should have done it ages ago but alas - I forgot.
Keep it up.
Luv da insight Doug-Keep it crankin'! I will keep on practicing & dreamin' of making the MAIN EVENT FINAL Table:)!
That 4-bet with 10 7 offsuit on the button... something I do with fake chips online lol wtf
of course wtf, fortuneteller loses ,lol
"who doesn't want to be a millionaire" gold.
Full disclosure I don't play poker, because I hate betting my own money regardless of flop odds or playing the person across from you strategy, but I love watching the WSOP. Doug Polk makes watching professional poker hands more interesting than they already are.
Thanks for the insight and logical assessments of the hands you break down and good luck to you sir.
Always love the videos dude. Hope to be able to meet you at next years wsop
Souza's move certainly didn't help the reputation of the average Brazilian poker player LOL. I think Polk used to salivate anytime he saw a Brazil flag at his online table lol.
17:30 the commentators are clueless. Hes not soliciting a thank you. He’s mentioning it because the idiot with 98o called a clock on him meanwhile he’s only slow playing trying to give the guy a chance at a $40k pay jump.
I dont get it, how could souza make the payjump just because gerritt tanked? if phan hade called, and gerrit still won the pot wouldnt souza still get eliminated?
Someone in an other table might get eliminated ( keep in mind there are three or more other tables playing and if someone from those tables busts than the 9,8 guy might get a pay jump , 40 k pay jump).
It was not about helping 89 guy but Kings were covered by the button so he was helping himself hoping someone busts on another table
This was 99% not about helping Souza, he wanted someone to bust in case Phan had a big hand to help himself
Tom Jamo false. Simply losing to Phan would have him busted
Great video Doug - please keep em commin
Doug I gotta say. I watched your video's when you were brand new to youtube and didn't think you were funny. Every single video you make now though is absolute gold! Amazing editing/commentary and hilarious every time! Binge watching these vids now :P I subbed this week! Also its 12am AND ITS MY B-DAY! XD
Shit i picked B. Guess i am fish
Peter S here fishy fishy
cheer up! you can be the next Bachelor!-Chris Harrison
can we edit out the tank job?
Polk trolling.
Derek Bryant can we edit out Doug Polk
Great video Doug. How’d you do in the main? I think I’m gonna sign up for the upswing early exit class.
“if you want to learn how to not fold full houses” hahahah
I can understand wanting to shove when you're on the short stack before it gets too small to scare other players, but that just didn't seem a very good hand to do it, especially after a 4-bet.
Raspberry Rock - Off Grid Cabin makes me think they're cheating almost.
Raspberry Rock - Off Grid Cabin nah A Q suited u gata call that
Uhh ya, his all in was less than the 4 bet you idiot... how can it scare him off lmao.
I like lighting money on fire too.
cough cough
I fell asleep, woke up for work and this dude was still staring at his chips. 😳
You’re originality is really something. Love your vids Doug, keep em coming!!
"I really think you should've asked the audience. Those guys always know what's right after the hand happens."
That might be the best thing I've ever heard. Well played Polk!
He went all-in to avoid being eaten up by the rake.
Oliver König good point
More rake is better though?
By the rake? Uhh
Did you step on a rake ala Sideshow Bob right before you made that comment?
Doug crankin' out content to surpass Dnegs subscriber count. Good Luck Doug!
Just subbed to the channel. Keep up the good videos brother.
Why dont they do x hands per level or some shit, rather than making it +ev to tank for days?
Because that would be impossible to implement unless you made the tournament hand for hand every hand, which would make the tournament last for years.
Let's do it
Better idea is to put time limits on action with time bank cards, as some tournaments already do.
That said, these kinds of choices are quite difficult and players are risking tournament lives. That tank shouldn't have taken so long, but you do have to bear in mind KK could have been running into AA or AKs
D - Call is the right answer for the game "Who DOESN T want to be a millionaire" :P
-"And we are not playing poker anymore!"
-> literally every hand played in no-money online poker
😂 nice content are getting more and more creative 👍
That tank from Gerrits is absurd.
No its not. He was doing it purely for the money jump which is without doubt the best thing he could do.
Yes agreed, So its a form of collusion then, we dont know how well the Dutch tanker knows the Brazilian do we
Not really. If called by the big stack, Gerrits was potentially at risk too right?
If Phan as Aces, it's just bad luck! I think you just go with it!
Wow.... I can't CZcams anymore because I get so mad reading the comments and seeing just how idiotic you people really are.
Thats sooooo fuckin funny!!
Gz on 200k subs
Lol you're the best, love the content, keep up the good work
Gerrits ftw, how nice of the my fellow dutchman to think about the wreckless fck's pay jump. not even a thank you :0
Maybe the wreckless fck thought our fellow dutchman did that thinking about his own pay jump. Phan was behind Gerrits and had him covered.
Doug, I had secks!!!
good for you, Cedric
It only counts if she's above 160. Doug's rule

the commentary about a piece of fabric missing from his grandparents home sofa😂
Ali's comment about the grandparents couch is brilliant
why is kevin spacey playing 98 off???
So, did he blow $40k by calling for the clock? Would love to know how much later the next player busted.
three tables moved to the next day'
oh... so that was the last hand of the day? I guess we'll never know :-(
He bubbled the final table
Schulman - excuse me Ricardo.. Ricardo is in!
Ali - wh - why?!
🤣🤣
Love your content bro
He had just lost most of his chips on a pretty bad hero call iirc, but it's still a terrible shove. With 9 BB you can certainly wait for a better spot... bc literally any spot is better than this one. That being said though, I think Phan's move is even worse. If he's trying to isolate Souza, there are far better hands to do that with, and given that Gerrits 3-bet, he likely is not folding.
my b, commented this b4 doug got to phan lol
Yes let's berate the bad player for the bad play he made so he learns, adapt, and becomes a tougher opponent in tourneys to come.
That's good for poker!
This community is broken
Berating only triggers bad players to play even worse.
@@beorlingo No it doesn't. If anything, it makes them NOT want to play anymore at all.
@@Original_Muffin well, depends on what typer of bad player it is. An overall aggressive donkey Will only be triggered. A fish calling station, maybe not. But you rarely feel the need to berate others than those "raise/3-bet every single hand and 3-barrel".
Ok, reckon you're one of those sweet calllers, since not replying. Keep up the the good calling away!
Gerrits looks like he passed out there for a sec .. love thr upholstery comment hahahaha
Silence... then at 6:55 ripping that flawless roast had me laughing so hard
VAMO BRAZIL
Belgium > Brazil lolololol
Your boy f’d up.
All the previous hands they've been watching on the delayed stream have clearly influenced the play here past the point of idiocy, Gerrits folding his QQ must have been on Phan's mind. His tanking should be punishable by death. Interesting that he says he's trying to help 89 guy ladder....implicit collusion. Although I was hoping he'd fold the kings and rethink his clothing attire.
Gerrits wasn't just trying to help the SB, he was the effective stack between himself and Phan.
he didn't give a shit about helping the 89 guy.he wanted to help himself in case he busted.
@@tfu4434 thank you for having a brain!!
Not going to lie. Half the time I have zero clue what you are talking about, but damn it's entertaining 😂
I can't even fathom his thought process here... He's facing heavy aggression before the flop and decides to go all in with 97o???!!! In probably the biggest tournament he'll ever get to in his career... I just have no words. I would've taken one look at those cards and folded
WHAT A BORING IS TO WATCH WSOP NOW !!!! In comparison with WSOP 2010 or less what happend with NORMAN CHAD AND LON McEACHERN? SO SICK SO SAD IS POKER NOW...SICK!
Norman and Lon commentate on ESPN. This video was PokerGo, which is commentated by Ali Nejad with Norman or Lon as guests.
I've been wanting Lon gone for a long time.
Ali Nejad is really a very irritating commentator...They pair him up with Nick Schulman who can't stand Alis stupid off-subject comments. They are trying to create another Lon Mackerron/Norman Chad like duo...But the new ones are just too iffitating ..., but then so is Norman Chad
The music was brilliant
Doug rocking the Invisalign lisp
Really liked this one - thank you, Doug! Forgive my ignorance, but what does "ICM" signify"
