Poker will never be this cool again. 😎
Raymer is my favourite world champion ever. So much class.
Those glasses made him a memorable poker player. Winning the Main event made him a champion. Seems like a very nice fellow.
No one deserved it more than Raymer. Handled getting berated by mike the mouth, handled his bad beats well, was gracious in his victories. Polite and a gentleman throughout.
Thats good karma for you!
I dont know about that - For Dan Harrington to make it to the final table 2 years in a row with fields of 890 and 2300 is harder than winning the tournament once.......
@@samiam7342 disagree
This was the apex of poker television. Just pure production brilliance.
Can we go back to these type of broadcasts plz? These were the best!
No kidding
So, day 1 of 2005 tomorrow? 😁😁😁
Correct! Link already available at the end of this episode ;)
@@PokerGO Nice!
Heck yah
Let’s go!
PASS THE SUGAR!
Watching the world series of poker main event will never be the same... The editing of these shows in the commentary from norm and lon will be sorely missed😢
Yeah, no doubt. I think that era died somewhere around 2008. It was so awesome watching these episodes back in the day. Never forget, Raymer nearly took it again in 2005.
It's crazy to think back that even though everyone made a big deal about Jamie Gold's chip-count going to the FT in 2006, he actually had a slightly smaller % of chips in play than Raymer had here. Raymer has a hair over 32%, Gold had just under 31%
I only watched to see Arieh go bust. What a diuche.
Back then, yeah. Nowadays not anymore :)
@@DocTighteh he’s still a douche just older so less prominent. Watch him on game of gold he’s not much different
Yeah, he seems to have calmed down a lot since 2004. We all grow and change for the better. That being said, yes he was a super douche back here lol
@@DocTightcan you steer me toward a video where he shows some class and dignity? Would be a nice palate cleanser from this
@@ryancooke4028 GGPoker's game of Gold comes to mind. He's still competitive there, obviously, but generally pretty chill. Nothing compared to here, anyway. :)
Raymer was lucky but such a gentleman throughout.
Dan Harrington raising it up with the 62o and getting through AQo and A2s is so sick, such a great hand even though it didn't see a flop
Great example of situational awareness. The two big stacks, both LAG players involved in tons of pots. Lot of chips out there, and they'll only keep going with a premium. Using his image to his advantage to the max... Legend...
The 3bet squeeze was a new move in those days
Dan had a super conservative and safe image...he had a license to steal. Even jacks or queens would have a hard time calling in that spot.
Amazing nit gameplay
So cool to watch this years later. Everyone has grown up(especially Josh) but Raymer's dominance and absolute class shines through. Legendary...
this coverage is gold. so many humble, class act players.
And Josh Arieh
A10 vs AK, runner runner straight for Raymer, he was destined to win it, never seen anyone get so lucky
2009 Main Event-Joe Cada
That’s pretty close as well regarding luck.
watch the Jamie Gold year and you'll reconsider
Arieh: "how can you call with that hand"
Also Arieh: *calls big bet with gutshot straight draw and gets lucky* "SKILL"
12:14 - Yeah, I agree. The game has changed since then, but today William's with 55 was supposed to shove and Arieh would've called him with AK. That hand was designed for Arieh to lose - unless William's fold pre-flop.
dude is a first class schmuck. we learned that in this WSOP.
He actually became a high stakes crusher. Arieh is 99th on the all time money list
What a great time it was without smartphones and AI-solvers
Seeing Josh Arieh and David Williams here after watching Game of Gold makes me admire them much more and proves that Poker IS indeed skill and not luck in the long run.
David Williams is a fish man. Josh is a great player.
@@POKERBEAST25 - This sounds exactly like something Josh Arieh would say while hiding behind his POKERBEAST25 CZcams handle.
So poker is a game of skill? Really breaking ground there dude.
@@a.f.johnston6753 while I can see where you would think that I’m certainly not Josh and to bolster my prior comment I will say that there were games that ran around David because he was such a big fish.
Evidently you missed David Williams on MasterChef. He was a blubbering, whiny crybaby who blamed everyone else for his mistakes and had zero accountability. Total loser.
I know Raymer was a bit goofy. However, he was very respectful and very sweet about his run and interactions with everybody he encountered. He seemed to have a lot of haters he encountered during his whole run in the tournament. He didn't deserve the disrespect. But like they say. If you don't have haters then you're doing something wrong.
He showed a lot of class and complimented the ones he knocked out, I respect that.
He didnt have to be so mean to Mike " the mouth " M. He made poor Mikey cry. He hurt his big cajones😂
The only reason ppl hated him was his weight. If he was fit and had a full head of hair, ppl would not have disrespected him. Especially that dbag Josh where he compliments him then 2 seconds later calls him a MFer to Williams...hes.a.2 faced little weasel
Played with Raymer many times, mostly before this event. Coolered him in a satellite with KK vs QQ for the main event at the Foxwoods 2002 poker finals. Harrington is someone I remember from the early days at the chessboard. He was one of the strongest players in New England in the early 1970s. Back then, as little more than a novice, I never dreamt I would be playing master level in less than ten years and would doubtless have met him had he not left New England and turned to poker.
Arieh so rude to Raymer, right after Raymer complimented him
Super awesome I'm glad to see these being posted to CZcams... So much nostalgia... Thank you pokergo
Greg's run is what dreams are made of. Then we met Jamie Gold in 2006 lmao
@dyi620 Then, this year was a mistake to me. The most entries in WSOP ME history, and they don't make everyone a millionaire at the FT. They make 1st $12.1 million to beat Jamie's year, that's fine, but make 9th $1 million.
Greg was such a class act. The game could have used more players like him back then.
Unlike say Arieh.
If everyone was a class act no one would have watched. Characters bring eyes to the game and grows it.
@@airickeric Hi Josh.
@philipjaffe8788 the name is Eric, twinkle toes
I love it when a players says I can't believe he call with pocket 5's. In my book a pair beats Ace high all the time.
it's almost as if the 5s have a 7%-10% edge depending on suits and mucked cards 😁
If he wants to complain to his rail, I get it, but he was out of line with some of the other comments he made.
Typically, you don't want to call a raise out of position with 55 if you have less than 40bb in your stack. Bad move.
Some players just don’t get it
David Williams was set mining for a 3rd of his stack. He had a 1 in 8 chance of flopping a set. If he doesn’t hit, he has to fold to an Arieh bet.
Marcel hanging out with Devilfish on the rail. 13:18
RIP
It’s funny because people give all these guys that have won the tournaments crap about how lucky they were over the years but since David Williams got second, it’s like people forget. You go back and watch from like day three. The dude was literally all in for his tournament life about 16 times and never lost once
It's such a contrast to see how poker was played in 2004 vs now. Greg really sun ran, mixed with good play.
Always loved Scotty Nygen. A great poker player and personality in the poker community.
Josh has grown up tremendously since 2004.
03&04 WSOP changed poker forever
28:36 Williams goes for the jinx and Raymer successfully deflects and denies the jinx
Harrington's books were the best!
Amazing final table. Love watching David Williams game.
David Williams is underrated. He's a great card player.
Till this day I still have no idea why David called Greg down to the river like that…David looked mad that entire hand like he wasn’t gonna let him push him around and then was like oh well I lost 🤷♂️
These are great, please do more Poker Go!
What a gracious and humble winner. Like jerry yang in 07. Congrats to raymer such a well deserved winner
Harrington, Kruk, Williams all class acts
I just happened to look up Al Krux and couldn’t believe what happened to the guy… 🤦🏻♂️
I love your channel, will you upload all seasons of highstakes poker as well?
Love to warch those and joined for them
It’s impressive how deep of a run David Williams made considering he played purely off instinct and never took more than 5 seconds to make a decision or to even think about what his opponent could have.
Amazing how Josh Arieh has changed for the better I think. Poker is humbling.
Arieh was the best player at the final table, he was card dead for much of it which ultimately doomed him.
99 never seems to hold against AQ, down the stretch at the Main Event. Whether Ivey vs Moneymaker, Arieh vs Raymer, or Jarvis vs Mizrachi.
well deserved champ
deserved? just lucky guy haha
Watch the recent wsop final tables, it’s hoods up and slow motion movement 😂
How times change
Raymer is such a card rack, no wonder he can’t win anymore. With that said he is a nice dude and played with class.
Every champion, and for that matter everyone that makes the final table is a card rack. It takes incredible luck , winning many times from behind and coin flips to win any tournament.
They didn't really do a good job portraying how tournaments work back then. Things like how many big blinds each player has. Raymer was a huge chipleader, and he was calling smaller stacks with decent hands he just so happen to get lucky with and didn't really do too much damage to his chip stack.
Perfect example of not understanding why he was in the position in the first place, and how editing makes people think he didn't deserve to win. Raymer bullied those people into submission, to the point that someone as experienced as Al Krux check jammed A9 on an AK5 flop with two diamonds against the two chipleaders, with the biggest stack betting from early position into two opponents. I'm sure he looks back at that with regret knowing he should've waited for a better spot. But the relentless nature of Raymer's style made him crack, and he donated to the eventual winner. Raymer has several wins since then, but plays infrequently and like all who play his style, either gets chips or goes up in flames. If you think watching ESPN's version of a tournament from 2004 is anyway to judge a poker player, please come to my next home game so we can clean you out...
So happy that Raymer won!
26:20 - split pot if there is a 3 OR A 5
Do you upload more WSOP episodes?
Al Krux’s daughter 😍😍😍
These blinds were insane vs their stakes.
Never seen someone run as good as Raymer dude smashed every flop
See Jamie Gold or even Peter Eastgate's run from 2 bbs
Is this the tournament where Arieh earned that cheesedik nickname?
He is defa cheesedik
Dan Harrington is amazing many years ago 2005 2006 a site he was playing at before all the bs today programs and such he was in a tournament im guessing the bye in was 500 or more i don't remember what happened pre flop but i do know the other player after that flop kept betting dan call turn came guy bet again dan called then the guy jams river an all in dan thought about this for a little bit not to long and called with ace king high it cripples him pretty bad or its all his chips if hes wrong it also wasn't a rebuy is ace king was good it was a monster guy missed a draw it was an incredible call
23:20 Matt Dean eliimintation followed by 4 wsop suited employees just fired carrying their last belongings in a box.
Saying that getting to back-to-back final tables is more impressive than winning back-to-back titles is kind of wild
when Chan won back to back there was like 150 people in the field its just a numbers thing
Still hilarious after all these years seeing Williams make a dumbass check in dark and celebrate like he's a god
Imagine being a lucky box, never experienced that
Would like to see some commentary from Sam Farha.
These guys just sun runned the WHOLE TIME. 🤣, AT > AK, TT > AA 🤣
I really need to learn how to win 20%’s, no wonder I don’t any tournaments!
People say Raymer was super lucky, so was Krux on the final two tables. Well til he busted 🤣🤣🤣

And they say poker es about skill. In any tournament a player can’t win without luck in flips or then he is against a higher pair or a better kicker,. Those kind of hands are the most important because they involve the most amount of chips
No one says luck isnt a factor
I bet Josh Arieh gets beat up a lot in the parking lot of his local casino in ATL
I just bought some stock in pork ribs!!!!
Crazy how many punts there was at the final table. These guys battled for days to throw their chance away on really marginal plays.
I'm so happy Greg Raymer won.
Now he can afford to buy some food.
I am no seasoned poker pro or veteran, but all throughout that final hand, Raymer just screamed pocket pair to me. I guess Williams thought he was bluffing repeatedly at the pot (which I could understand that thought process), but Raymer had played consistently well with quality hands throughout the tournament.
Come on Rosie!
Wow a lot of money but I only enjoy to watch 🤣😂
7:46 Yep, just as I thought in 2005. Al Krux’s daughter is fine AF. Lol.
Raymer on a HEEETER
⚖
What a horrible play by Al Krux when he went bust.
When humans played, not algorythms
David was played stupid on the last hand. I guess he got tired or something.
Back when you had to play or read a book to learn. Now days every cack knocker w a phone has endless resources to tell him what to do.
Matt Dean ICM Suicide
true story
What does ICM stand for?
@@quiggle78Independent Chip Model.
Josh A is so tilting
David vs “Goliath”
Both literally, and figuratively
It's shocking that David Williams went from "Mr. Cool" at the WSOP to whiny crybaby on MasterChef. I lost all respect for him.
20:14 Special award for the Worst Acting Performance in Las Vegas Poker history
It's a shame that poker is about 70% luck, but that's the name of the game.
So its called the "70% luck Game"?
@@tomascech6772we can bet that he's winning at this game 😂
Jesus these old school players were really an absolute thrash. NGL I had a really hard watching it.
You had a hard watching a bunch of guys play poker ?
These days players are even worse. They think there good and there Garbage.
That Matt Dean guy my have made the biggest punt off at a final table ever.
@@usernamesrlamohe's not alone, check andras koroknai 😄
@@usernamesrlamo So you've never heard of Philip Hilm. You win the internet!
be shady & check it down" Raymer wouldn't have allowed it but not a shady thing to do
C'mon, nothing funny.
If the gods want you to win, youll win. It has nothing to do with the cards
It’s all luck lol
Anyone else think Hughes was hella annoying?
Snap called with tens, thought he had best hand, Hits a set, Deck smashed Raymer, Was the worst player at final table, and the way he shook guys hands and told them that they should have won the pot, no shit, thanks for the link
i didnt like raymer..i think hes overrated like taylor swift is
They are so alike in many ways
sheesh Dan! donked all your chips on a bluff.. ooof
Nice to see Josh is not such an azz anymore lol :)
36:15. Bust this mf
The mf with the "small cojones" as the mouth said took them down one by one, he'd been destined to win it all! 😄
@@MrKh4Ot1k yeah, winning tt vs aa then at vs ak must have helped ^^
