As always this was such a pleasure to be able to call 21 hours of these guys splashing around in two of the most entertaining episodes of Hustler Casino Live ever.
Dude the way he so confidently told JR the last hand was a chop was so boss. He appeared as a loosey goosey player but he’s actually the rabbit with the gun.
@@jayhayes5924 except that i’m pretty sure that keating is down in HCL lifetime (if i’m wrong, correct me) and that dwan (young version or today) would obviously demolish this game.
when I first started following poker, I thought Keating was just a crazy loose player. However I now see what his game is (I think). He knows that he has a substantial skill edge, and they're usually playing hella deep. So, it makes sense to get in and mix it up with a lot of nonsense, and then hand read and know when you can run a good bluff, or when you hit a strong hand that your opponent won't expect. He's actually pretty disciplined about getting away from crummy hands after the flop.
So many people call him a donkey but he is just on a much higher level. He knows he's playing way too wide but he's still able to stack a table of pros on any given night.
Bart is the best poker commentator out there. Alan Keating if not the best cash game player. He is the most enjoyable to watch. He is a gentleman, never complains. Never blames. Talks but don’t talk too much. This is the type of player I love to watch.
keating reminds me of brazilian ronaldo (football player) when he was young ... upcoming, talented as f..., humble, not a cryboy when get fouled stands up continues playing never complaining ...
keating is a boss man. one of the best to watch - would of love to see him back in the day with the old timers sammy, barry, doyle, ivey, phil, d negs, etc.
Just excellent hand reading from Keating - goes to show you the power of understanding your opponent and their strategy, and what hands make sense for them.
@@chriskoshinski yeah he had a lot of favorable cards, but that had nothing to do with my point. He knew where he was in these hands, it was very skillful poker play.
@@newstandardaccount shot in the dark, daniel negreanu is famous for his "psychic" reads, but what you don't see the 9 out of 10 times he gets it wrong since only the times he gets it right go viral
Was so not a fan of Keating when I first saw him a play a year or so ago but my god has he grown on me, what a funny friendly endearing exciting happy go lucky poker player who is the first to stack someone when they go broke 👏
The AJ shove made no sense and the speed of it also. Keating coupd of found a call. That player tanks on all of his value bet decisions annoyingly. He guessed AJ also. Should of called if he took the time to think it through.
One of the parts Hustler streams have going for it is the sounds of the card room. I know the other streams are going to private rooms, but keeping the background adds the needed live feel.
Why were they sitting then? I've never seen them play the stand up at Hustler lmao. You just making stuff up? Never seen anybody sit during a hand if you're supposed to be still standing in the stand up game. Hense the name, STAND UP GAME.
@@speakinfaxonly21 because production don't like them standing because then they do'nt have good angles for good footages. So they keep track who is 'sittig'/won a hand by giving them a timechip. But hey don't have to trust me you could just see the stream and see for yourself.
I always find it funny the number of insanely rare hand that you get on some of these streamed games. AK vs AQ vs KQ, and then 3 people all with the same flush draw. Just stuff you don’t ever see in live games granted you can’t always see the cards but it’s just seems crazy. How many of these pots that in order to get this large a.k.a. this interest have to have several people with a very similar hand all going for it.
It's the first board that counts for the pot disk. The pot disk is a visual aid used on poker tables to indicate which player is currently winning the pot based on the action taken in that hand. The pot disk is usually circular and made of plastic so that it can easily spin or slide across the table. It helps all players follow the changing dynamics of the pot as betting unfolds.
Hanks jamming with Kh5h was an absurd move. Can someone please explain the logic? There isn't a good explanation, but feel free to try and explain this move to me.
Keating has some amazing plays, but what was up with Hanks? He was definitely ready to go home. Hanks, any time you want to hand someone $100k, I'm hear for you. 🤣
Ok someone please explain this to me? Why is it that JR's queen doesn't play? What does JR say? The 3s a King? What would the chop board look like? thanks and sorry for being so dense on this.
In regular Texas Hold'em, it's the best 5 cards you can make a hand with. Normally it includes the two cards in your hand, many times just one card and others you can play the board.
In that specific hand, the board was A-3-3-K-5. JR had A-Q and Keating had A-4. With each player having an Ace, the best 5 card hand for each player was A-A-3-3-K. The community King card is a higher kicker than the Queen that was in J.R.'s hand so his queen does not play.
The community card King is higher than what either of them hold, so on the flop it goes from JR having the Queen kicker, and dominating Keating's 4 kicker, to the turn being a shared King kicker. Two pair ( 3's and Ace's with a shared King kicker ). What players try to do is push all-in because they don't want to chop the pot. It happens all the time in micro stakes.
The orange hoodie dude was visibly hesitating before his bluff on the river, you'd think people should have their tells better under control at this level

I watched half. Great content!!!
So much fun! Great commentary as always Bart!
Way to warrior through the extra hours of play, appreciate it.
Bart you are the best poker commentator out there.
Crooks
Dude the way he so confidently told JR the last hand was a chop was so boss. He appeared as a loosey goosey player but he’s actually the rabbit with the gun.
From what I see.. he's like a prime tom dwan.. Don't try to bluff him.. well.. would be nice to see prime bluff lord vs Keating the calling machine.
Brilliant analogy. That's exactly what he is.
No, its just he got money

keating is the most compelling poker player in the world right now for sure. he's box office.
So many people call him a donkey but he is just on a much higher level. He knows he's playing way too wide but he's still able to stack a table of pros on any given night.
His postflop game is unmatched. If he played a normal preflop range, he would be one of the best poker players in the world.
@@tylerslenk8243 his wider range is what allows him to play so well. He connects with more boards post flop and has more high ev spots to pick from
I was a non believer of Keating for a while. I am on the Keating train! Amazing high level poker.
I agree. I also think Eric Persons is a great one to watch although he's a bit arrogant for me. I still like to watch him play.

@@SotPSotPSotPexcept he doesn’t play a children’s game….🎉🎉
Keating somehow knowing his deuce is good 3 ways and then saying "I don't want to slowroll anyone" 😂😂 absolute legend
He said slowplay. He's such a donk he doesn't know the difference.
That was the funniest ballsiest thing ever. Keating has to be some kind of psychopath, he was built for poker. Better than being a serial killer
@@DoctorChained Slowroll and slowplay are literally the exact same thing dude. learn poker
@@danradke98275 Lmao no they're not. Google is your friend.
@@danradke98275 No
Bart is the best poker color analyst around.
I agree ☝️
“Got A-J over there” keating is an exceptional player
Keating is so relaxed. Feels like he's play $1-$2 blinds
That last hand raising with A3 on the river was beautiful. Pushing off the chop to steal the whole thing, absolutely brilliant play.
Love Keating. An absolute gentleman and stone cold killer. Great entertainment.
How 🔥does the man run geezers
Keating very casual calling Aaron's hand there with AJ. Class guy it is.
That last hand was something else. He knew exactly where he was at and JR didn’t.
♥️ how Alan acts during play. He is emotionless with respect to all !
keating is a boss man. one of the best to watch - would of love to see him back in the day with the old timers sammy, barry, doyle, ivey, phil, d negs, etc.

Bro..... he got smashed with deck. Except the last hand.

@@iamamish Peeling large 3bets vs the best player at the table with J5s takes real skill.
@@ams54321 I said the hand reading was skillful I didn't comment on the other aspects of his play.
Keating calling Aaron’s AJ scared me as well there 😂
I watched the action and I still have no idea how he put him on AJ - can anyone explain this?
@@newstandardaccount shot in the dark, daniel negreanu is famous for his "psychic" reads, but what you don't see the 9 out of 10 times he gets it wrong since only the times he gets it right go viral
Always good to see Alan Keating scooping pots. He’s such a class act, win or lose… he always has a gentleman!
I could watch Alan play all day long. Genuine legend....now we just need Garrett Adelstein to play on the same stream.
Garrett is a shark. Keating is a whale. I do not want to watch Garrett play Alan. It wouldn't be fun.
@@MG-ih6po how do you know Keating is a whale.....seems solid to me.
The game is fine without Garrett really don't miss him
@@mxg1072 the word whale isn’t even in his comment lmao you okay pal?
@@derejm5461 He brings all the estrogen to the game tho, there is just too much testosterone on the table without Gman there.
Keating is great content
New found respect for Keating. What a fkin beast!
I love Keating and I love Persson but the streams are never the same if Bart is not commentating! Much love brother.
Was so not a fan of Keating when I first saw him a play a year or so ago but my god has he grown on me, what a funny friendly endearing exciting happy go lucky poker player who is the first to stack someone when they go broke 👏

Anybody enjoy watching keating beat Haracocobolo?
Alan is so elegant. Win or lose. Same energy.
27 minutes of me realizing he's better than i give him credit for
JR has to be the most nervous poker player I’ve ever seen
Really? How so?
Idk if you mean his playstyle, but he's known for making sick call downs!
@@shroey20 he’s constantly dropping chips, misreading boards, stumbling over his words.
Yeah he is a fish, no idea why/how does he play hs
@@omertavori3723
You are a big big Keves
Feels like everything goes out the window when your playing against someone who is playing 82 off.
One of the parts Hustler streams have going for it is the sounds of the card room. I know the other streams are going to private rooms, but keeping the background adds the needed live feel.
Important detail; that Ks2s vs As7x was during the stand up game where Handz and charles were the only 2 remained standing
This does add some context actually, though it is funny how players will torch their stack to avoid a (relatively) small table payout 😂
Why were they sitting then? I've never seen them play the stand up at Hustler lmao. You just making stuff up? Never seen anybody sit during a hand if you're supposed to be still standing in the stand up game. Hense the name, STAND UP GAME.

Hats off to the dealer - great to have a competent operator running the table.
Painful when you don't.... Nothing worse then getting 10 hands tops an hour due to a poor dealer.
@@Ryan-ky1lc Agreed - gotta get a table move or leave!
Loved the J5 hand. And as always Bart commentary is so money.
With Garrett out of the picture, everyone is gonna take the blinders off and realize that person and Keating are the best to watch.
What happened to Garrett?
Handz is Aaron Rodgers half brother, i met them both at a Lake tahoe casino couple years back, both were wearing tight jean shorts
Bruh why do you remember what they were wearing 👀
Shoutout to Mars for the “we like to gamble 😝” and going 1 time. Seems like every huge pot is twice now.
The last hand -
Keating saying it's a chop as he's stacking the entire pot. Incredible.
True story. I was playing a tournament, and 3 people flopped a flush. They were all sitting next to each other. Crazy 🤪
At 16:30, how did he put Aaron on AJ?
16:20
That AJ read was sick
Sick read for sure which is why he called so quickly
16:20 how Keating know he has AJ (serious question)
Keating: maybe AJ huh, I can't call u though, fold.
Aaron: Oh u really called me! AJ
U rally scared me omgosh!

what bluffs does keating have in the ak vs kq overflush hand?
Love watching him at the minute. Class act to go with it
22:54 what does he say? it's the first board that counts for the ..........?
It's the first board that counts for the pot disk.

The pot disk is usually circular and made of plastic so that it can easily spin or slide across the table. It helps all players follow the changing dynamics of the pot as betting unfolds.
9:55. Handz shows his respect.
Handz stepping in it - Deja vu over and over again
Very good commentating. Spot on.
anyone knows Handz win/loss in this game overall?
How did he call the AJ hand?
I was a hater when he was punting buy-ins on the Mr. Beast stream. But damn, he can really flip the switch when he wants to.
New & improved version! ❤ Gg #Keating ✌🏻
the last few seconds of this vid were cold !
I still don't get it. How could keating read AJ on Arron? How????
Keating is such a classy player and wildly draws out
What is Hanks doing at the end of this video? Ohh brother 🤦♂️
I love watching this dude.
I wouldve just called on the turn. i dont think theres much fold equity in the check raise. either bet or check to call
Keating gave Mars a chance by offering to run it twice after the turn card...why didn't Mars take it?? Did he not understand what Keating was saying?
Reputation is worth more than money, even at these stakes. You make a deal, you stick to it. At least that’s my take.
He didn't understand him.. by the time he realized it was to late to take him up on the offer
Anyone else getting Full Tilt vibes watching these vids?
I sure miss that software.
Where's g man haven't seen him on here in a while
What kind of name “handz” was?
Before I only watched when Garrett played now Alan Keating is on the stage I’m like Garrett whooooo?
He is nuts! Big hugs for bravery!
Why does this video have to end. Cmon guys.
Hanks jamming with Kh5h was an absurd move. Can someone please explain the logic? There isn't a good explanation, but feel free to try and explain this move to me.
It sounded like Keating was hammering on his blinds and he got fed up with it. Happens to the best of us, especially in multi-table tournament poker.
The only thing better than this is watching Keating stack Persson.
you know. ive never seen somebody win a preflop jam with aces on youtube 😂
Would like to see Alan play in the Triton Series.
If he predicted ace jack, why didnt he call? Didnt he have the winning hand?
Was it just because the call wasnt worth a guess?
Impressive Goat play by Keating.
Reminds me of joe from you on netflix. Charming serial killer vibes. Pokers ted bundy
These guys playing with my life earnings like it's a trip to the grocery store. I'm done w this world
Keating has some amazing plays, but what was up with Hanks? He was definitely ready to go home. Hanks, any time you want to hand someone $100k, I'm hear for you. 🤣
7:26 "Check-check again!" from the commentators... ? Keating doesn't make a move until 7:28..
Does Keating think about last time when he doesn't go all in.
Keating has been my favorite player since i saw him absolutely kill Phil Hellmuth on Poker Go a couple years ago while playing literally every hand
Keating is a killer
bro already knew it was a chop LOL
17:27 don’t think how that’s an action card at all, the guys already drawing to hearts and only hearts and to catch a straight is like 1:3
Keating seemed genuinely impressed and happy that he lost to k5 with his aces
He didn't lose. He chopped the pot with K5 doofus.
@@DoctorChained He's talking about the first run out. Lmao. You're a tad slow, ain't ya.
So he's not slow rolling. What's he got to think about. He's got the highest hand with ace diamond.
Man BART crushes !

Qd is a call, Ad is a raise.
Your sitting with the kd.
Easy check or fold.
24:33 why @hanks
Mad props
One word for Keating’s success; Detachment!
Keating is a 🐐
He called the aj lol crazy guy
I am telling you guys, Keating plays to watch players' reactions..😝😆
"We like gambol, I tink"
Bart Hanson is indeed a joy to listen too..
16:31 ... if he *really* thought he had AJ ... why didn't he call him? He didn't believe a word of when he guessed AJ.
Handz in the blender... The Poor guy has taken a beating lately... Hope he can bounce back
Is everyone in CA hearing impaired? Why does everyone have to scream in the background?
Nice to see Hank has employed the 'shove top pair for 100 grand' strategy against the trillionaire lol
Keating is King!!
Was there like… something behind the Hanks shove? What’s the backstory?!
Hanks and Keating regularly play together in a private Vegas game
It’s all scripted
He’s a donk
