IM ALL IN

Story?

I watched way too much World Series of Poker when I was like 12.

>>79785449
Live poker was ruined by boring internet autists who replaced all the fun personalities

>>79785488

This

Look up Phil Helmuth

The way he would act up sometimes was hilarious.

Tom "I do lots of drugs and play poker for the mafia" Durr Dwan

>>79785406
YEAH
I'M A LAZY JACK
I GOT AN ACE OF DIAMONDS AND I AIN'T HOLDING BACK

>>79785406

Durr was a fucking retard, he thought he was the best and challenged everyone, then lost all his money to actual good players online.

>>79785620
That's really the problem with most top poker players in general. They never accept that people surpass them and keep playing high stakes anyways and just lose everything.

>it's an actor plays the world series and tries the most transparent all-in bluff because he thinks 'acting' is an actual profession that gives you any real life skills or requires any talent and gets called out immediately episode

love those episodes.

>>79785809
As a former casino employee, I have to confirm that seeing famous people lose their entire fortune in front of you is one of the most exhilarating things you can ever experience.

Would you go all in?

When did he start using Dwan? Fucking Tugboat Maguire biting sell-out

>>79785869
Damn Jennifer Tilly is so underrated.

>>79785406
Care for a game of Gwent?

>>79785578
They all do

>>79785488
you may complain about the others but Durrrr was awesome to watch, even autistic

>>79785869
That bitch was terrible. I remember her being dressed like that one time when she had a great hand. Her cleavage just drew attention to her increased breath and excitement. Everyone at the table cottoned on to it and folded.

>>79785869
why is this allowed?

>>79785869
Nah just bet the pot. Matusow aint drawing shit, 250k is worth it. Ace of spades high baby

>>79785869

I'd go all (4 inches) in

>Phil Ivey's face

>>79786135
he seems like a pretty chill guy but he just feels so reddit

What weekdays and times are there usually good on poker threads on /asp/? Or did they sought sanctuary in /tg/ now? I want to gradually get back in the games and debts.

All in. Dubs on the river.

>>79786135
Definitely my favorite

negreanu & helmut banter was always gold

I used to watch Daniel Negreanu on twitch, he did these streams from his hotel rooms and stuff. Shit was hilarious.

>>79785782

yeah but I think most tv guys back then knew they would get BTFO against the online high stakes players

>>79786197
I fucking love Ivey, that was perfect

>>79786326
Playing online poker?

>>79786173
I think so? There's a poker streamer on twitch who's a friend of his and he talks about him sometimes. Also gay.

>>79786214
Yeah he's literally one of the genuinely nicest people on the planet.

>>79786355
Yup.

>>79786135
he's a shill

>>79786197
So how would Antonius have played it if he had pocket boyos?

>>79786164
>>>/v/

players who are fun to watch:

Daniel Negreanu
Antonio Esfandiari
Phil Laak (plays boring, but fun table chatter)
Patrik Antonius
Mike Matusow
Phil Hellmuth
Phil Ivey

eeeeh, that's all i can think of right now

who here watching unibet right now? This guy is getting JUSTed

>>79786135
he streams sometimes hearthstone on twitch

>>79786471
bet a lot more pre-flop and kept betting whole hand through.

what do /we/ think of jason somerville?

>>79786610
but how much and until when? assume he wanted to milk the fish

>>79786649
too busy with his company and happy living stuff. he used to play serious hold'em and analyze hands on twitch, but he'd rather just chill these days.

>>79786135
He's an awful Pokerstars shill, out of his depth in the biggest games and his nice-guy act is phony as fuck

I used to be his biggest fan but I see through it now

>tfw playing my first WSOP event this summer
Anyone been before?

>>79786197
Why does Phil Ivey always look like hes having a stroke?

>>79786650

I unironically love phil hellmuth

i can't see their total chips, but he would've bet high every single round going first. you don't 'bait' with KKs or AAs like that.

>>79786906
Your bet-sizing should always be relative to the size of what is already in the pot. With regards to stack-size, just don't put yourself in awkward situations where there's more in the middle than in your stack, making yourself pot-committed.

If you're talking about scary bet sizing on say, a flop, you should take board texture into account. If you have pocket kings on a 9hThJs board, your sizing should be a lot bigger than if it's a 2c6hTs board because there's more your opponent can call you with and you want to charge players to chase their draws

I would but she will not even notice.

>>79787065
that is the grinder's way. say im on cocaine and have already decided nothing can beat my pocket kings and just want to milk a bitch as much as she's willing, do i just go with the opposite of that algorithm or are there finer points to slowplaying pocket kings?

Niggareanu can read anyone like a elementary school book.

>>79787303
he's not that good at reading anymore

>>79786813
Phil Hellmuth sounds exactly like Chris Chan.

>>79787122
>Plays boring as fuck
>Doesn't have a personality
You just described 99% of poker players

>>79787045
>Matt Damon Is Terrible at Poker
that wasn't so bad.

>>79787245
>later removed the word "male" from the reports

yea it's not like anyone will remember

Who is the best poker player today?

Also how do people lose their 'it' factor is it an age thing or do they just become so jaded?

>>79787384
Other than going CHECK CHECK CHECK all night even when he had the hands or giving off dozens of tells just in that segment alone, yea, it wasn't so bad.

>>79787045
He was thinking at least i'm not Batman in some shitty Batman vs Superman movie.

>>79787460
>all night
ok i didn't see the rest of the night, only this clip. but he baited one guy at least. he must've felt really stupid after that, falling for such a bad player kek

>>79787045
>a Hollywood star with some pretty bad acting here
lmao

>>79787122
>>79787354
What use does personality have on the table anyway? It's strictly for the cameras and broadcasting sidebusiness. Royalties for filming your likeness is like a generous 5% of a finals table earner.

>>79787554
"Poor guy's got nowhere to go!"

>>79787458
The easy answer is Fedor Holz but he just 'retired'

>>79787577
It makes it entertaining to watch, dummy.

Damn I remember when Texas Holdem was like crack to watch do people still watch it? Whoever decided to put a camera under the table should be a millionaire.

>>79787634
for you while you earn shit. this isn't rasslin where mic skills get you a bonus. could be chris chan and make top ten and the jews will still have to pay you pittance royalties while the real money is on the felt.

>>79787507
He didn't bait anyone. He lost a shit ton of "potential" money on that hand. As silly as it sounds, poker isn't about winning hands.

Doug Polk is the best poker content creator

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMy-hAiBa8s

>>79787711
Winning hands makes it entertaining to watch, dummy.

>>79787738
Entertainment isn't a strategy when you're trying to win tournaments.

>>79787711
what is it about then.

>>79787738
Losing hands is also as entertaining to watch, dummy. Just look at the premise of this thread.

>>79787711
Seems to me he wanted others to raise/bet instead of doing it himself. Partially successful, since one guy bet. No?

>>79787769
There's no skill in being dealt the best hand. The skill is extracting the most value when you do, and losing the least amount possible when you don't

>>79787769
Maximizing your winnings and minimizing your losses.

>>79785869
What a fucking whore. I'm sorry, but you go on TV wearing a dress like that? You're a tramp.

>>79787738
>entertaining
Oh look that buzzword is back

>>79787345
How can you lose a skill like that?

>Kino
>Literally just youtube recommended nexts
show of hands how many youtube hours you have logged today

>>79787813
No.

>>79787833
>winning
but to win, you have to win the hand. so clearly, it's about winning hands.

>>79787863
it's more so he doesn't know how to read newer players nowadays more than that he lost his skill

>>79787864
yes

>>79787863
The good players play in a more balanced way now than they did ten years ago

>>79787863
changing demographics? how many bait posts have you replied to today versus how many did you shrug off when you were younger, edgier and sharper? metagame my dude

>>79787903
Do you not understand the difference between a winning and a win? This is a tough concept, if you're a complete a fucking retard.

>>79787924
net loss scum

>>79787903
If he's going to limp T6o and then not get any value when he boats up, it's a losing play in the long-run.

>>79788002
A win is how you get winnings. You need to win the hand to have winnings.

>>79788002
do you now know that to have winnings, you must win? there is no need to be upset.

>>79787938
>balanced
There's that real buzzword again. Then the field should be more predictable and poker has descended into statistical attrition with no consistent personalities at the end of the curve.

>>79788115
>>79788140
And the goal is to maximize your winnings, not the amount of wins. You have school on Monday. Go do your homework, so you won't fall further behind in math.

>>79788205
>winnings
but to have winnings, you must have wins = you must win hands. which is the goal.

>>79788205
So you're saying you can be successful at poker without winning any hands? That's news to me.

>>79788205
I like the poker you play - the one where you get money without winning.

>>79788205
To maximize wins, you must first win hands. So to me it looks like winning hands is the ultimate goal.

He tried so hard and got so far, but in the end it didn't even matter.

>>79788277
>>79788295
False fallacies. We aren't arguing about the same thing.

>>79788253
>>79788347
Surprisingly (to a complete fucking retard) it's not. You're already confusing a win and a winning again. The goal is to win chips, not hands. You can just google 'goal of poker' if you want to read further. There are plenty of beginner guides to poker explaining this to you.

>>79788487
>he's falling for this obvious bait
you're better than this.

>>79788424
>autistic
>disgusting
>insufferable

He's our guy

>>79788487
What's the point of wining chips if you don't win hands? Surely you win chips so that you can walk away with them, meaning you have to win the hand. So the goal is to win hands.

>>79788514
>winning without winning
>bait

>>79788424

I have never seen someone look and act so physically repulsive ever. I cant believe the commentators or players dont talk about it.

>>79788487
>the goal of poker is not to win
please don't write any beginner guides yourself.

definitely /ourguy/
ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9j0QLFW4WI

>>79788677
I won't. People with infinitely more skill in Poker have already written guides explaining the same thing. The goal is to win chips, not hands, to maximize your winnings. Is the word 'goal' the problem here for you guys? Just look up words you don't understand on Google.

>>79788892
>to maximize your winnings.
but to have winnings, you must win hands. so the goal is obviously to win hands. pure logic. and you keep referring to google, as if you're incapable of explaining yourself.

>>79788892
>The goal is to win chips
...by winning hands, right? So the goal is to win hands?

>>79786781
It's called pokerface you fucking pleb

>>79786135
Not me. He cheats.

>poker becomes a huge fad
>safe ports act (?) makes online poker de facto illegal
>feds actually bust a online poker pyramid scheme
>disappears and is replaced by fantasy sports

Isn't the wsop mostly foreigners now?

>>79788424
this guy looks like he begs celebrities for autographs.

>>79789279
Depends on who's a foreigner to you. Only USA was excluded from online Poker. Even Canadians are still playing.

>>79786589
Also a cheter

>>79785869
wtf i love poker now!

>>79785869
>Would you go all in?

I wouldn't because Jennifer Tilly is a professional poker player and would probably wreck my shit in a game. Sure, she's not a GOAT but she's good enough to roll 99.9% of casuals and scrubs.
