You never know what you might see on The Lodge Live stream. You might see Pocket Aces vs Pocket Kings. You may see the nut straight lose to a full house after the board pairs on the river. There's a good chance you will see loads of straddles (and double straddles, and triple straddles). Players go all-in blind or play poker hands after looking at just one card. That's just what poker is like in Texas!
The stream regularly features Lodge owners Brad Owen, Andrew Neeme, and Doug Polk. Players like Rampage, Mariano, and Igor Kurganov has also graced The Lodge Live felt. And who knows? One day The Lodge may even host players like Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, or similarly huge poker names.

Doug talking about his range when Tesla has never considered for a second in his life what his opponent might be holding.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
What hands do u think he’s shocking with on that river with the kk board
Dude plays poker like me I approve
Ding ding ding Never even crosses his mind
😂
Tesla is the kind of guy you triple up right before he gets stacked by the biggest nit at the table
Exactly.. so frustrating lol. Somehow hero calls with the smallest flush possible against
someone with a 18%vpip
Although I feel your comment, you can technically only ever double up another player
How do you triple up someone?
@@bradpowell5581usually at lower stakes tables with a max buy-in. Say a 2-5 game with $1000 max buy-in. You both buy-in for the $1K. You get it all in with top set on the flop and he calls with a pair and hits a runner-runner flush. So he now has 2K and you reload for 1K and same thing happens again. Now he has 3K because you tripled him up. Next hand he loses it all to the the nit holding quads--the guy who's been playing 12 hours straight and has accumulated a $5K stack.
You have to use all your holes@@bradpowell5581
it's like watching a child walk across the highway with a blindfold on
That guy would bet on his child doing that.
ye only cos u think theres skill, this game is pure gambling, as soon as 1 player is stupid the whole table is just as stupid, this is gambling there is no skill lol
@@sl-fu3uhyeah, that´s why you see the same people on the final tables...pure luck ^^
He is going to need to change his name to Camry by end of this session
a used Camry at that
Camrys are reliable bro. 😂
Camary's last forever!!!!
Excuse me i love my camry
Pinto rather
I don’t know if being the biggest donkey to ever play a live stream legend, is the kind of legend one should strive for.
of course theyre going to pump him and his behavior up. they all want him back.
Donkey. Xuan shouldn't have folded his line made close to zero sense and he just got plain lucky against Mariano before his two blow-ups the first with zero equity against trips and the second with 10 percent equity vs a set. People who regularly get themselves in these situations from lack of control or knowledge are loosing players.
Maybe someone who can afford to lose that kind of money should be a legend
Whales will whale and donate money!
Donkey to the nth power
Let this be a lesson folks....when you get too aggressive eventually you will be stacked (over and over)
but before u get stacked, with your aggressiveness, you won 2 stacks worth of money. And then you are stacked for 100bb. That's how the game works man
Hearing Doug cry "NOOOOO......NOOOOOO.......NOOOOO" is gonna be my new ring tone
The "how do I call? How do.. I.. Call? How do I call?" is the ringtone for me.
@@EastWindCommunity1973🤣🤣
Doug trying to analyse someone who clearly plays for the first time. Is hilarious
First time. You clearly cant analyze.
That’s not the face of someone analyzing… that’s the face of someone who’s played a ton of poker and seen a ton of bad beats and is about to play over half a million dollar pot.
First time? More like money doesn't matter a ton
Funny how the biggest whales are always "legends" - they wouldn't title you this way to keep you around playing, right? right!
(they did the same with Krish, Reza, Jerry etc at Hustler)
Dude you are playing poker it's not a game where you have to be honest.
Who cares about winning money, these guys just care about looking cool in a clip
@@wayne9287 true, but pushing these guys this way to keep lighting money on fire seems a bit predatory
@@davidstud3952poker is not for you if I can take a million dollars from the same game I would do it it’s a fair and square game if you wouldn’t then it’s not for you man
To be fair to non-whales Postle was also called a legend.
Love how he has no idea what an uncapped range is. Absolutely horrendous play.
lol you are a dork
Well it looks stronger then. Too bad he didn't atleast have a little equity with a flush draw though and suck out
I’m guessing he knows what an uncapped range is better then the rest of us, his just happens to be in his bank account
Just another Nick Nick airball in the making
This Tesla idiot doesn't deserve to be on TV... probably the worst player to ever be televised.
That runner runner vs Doug was wild😂 I would be tilted for a month about that
I highly doubt that as Doug got it all back plus some decent extra
That's not the point! If it wasn't for this guy staying in full Donkey mode and donating he doesn't recover from that and it was brutal and nobody is ever putting him on that hand because he shouldn't even be in the hand with it at that point...Normal Donkeys don't even play this bad... This guy is a Donkey Maniac Hybrid... Lucky to even have survived to that point and if I was him I would have only ran it once if I was him with that set of 8's vs Doug... I'm not running it twice when I'm owning a player even if they don't invite me back.. That's when the wheels fell off of Tesla...If he wins that hand he keeps them guessing and for even bigger money and pressure. .. Plus I think his game was to tilt players well Doug was the best 1 to tilt and he only ran it twice because it was Doug.. You could see in his eyes he only wanted to run it once.
That J9 play was so fucking dumb wtf????
@@allancouceiro9255J4 not J9
@@allancouceiro9255J9 Or J4?😂😂
@@allancouceiro9255Actually the hand had nothing to due with J9, but yet she had J4 against Garrett
2♦reveal was nasty, though.
Honestly. Figured him saying "I had you on the turn" was a tell, but Doug believed him.
@@kylepatrickmccrary2781
doug wasnt believing him he was just putting him on a 5 step level meaning doug knew him telling he had doug on the turn was obvious he lied but it was also obvious to tesla hence he purpousely saying that and so on and so on for 5 levels .. too bad he chose 5 and not 6 levels lol
@@TheBarbahabawhat the hell are you talking about?? Doug definitely believed him that’s why he folded 🤦🏻♂️
@@bradpowell5581 you didnt get what i was saying
@@TheBarbahaba I don’t think anyone understood any of what you said. A 5 step level?
Legend? More like a lucky donkey that still lost tons.
Where did they call him a legend? It says "viral". Just a slight difference.
@@johnnyhunterRead the thumbnail
I watch a lot of these highlight videos… this is a particularly sick one
He reminds me of the drunk people on a Friday night that are playing the low limit games. A couple of big wins gives them false confidence, but keep punting and you'll always lose in the long run.
I think Xuan was unlucky as she hadnt seen those other donkey plays first. Thats why she couldn't work out what was happening lol
Nah. She slow played to trap then talked herself into a fold
What is Tesla repping with bet on flop. Obvious is top pair with Q
He doesn't have a premium else he'd raise preflop
She slow played AA
She has to call on that runout
If he got lucky with a 10 then pay him off. A 6 makes even less sense but if that's also the case
Lucky him
Fold is not a pro level play
Doug also talked himself into a fold after prior runout that cost him.
He had a 9 high flush
Agreed. He hadn't gone full Tesla at that point. Plus so much got there and she was blocking both nut flush draws. She got crucified for the fold but if Tesla had it, everybody would have been like "lol everything got there and you still stack off with one pair"
She only needs to win 20% of the time in that spot. Does she really think she’s losing 20% of the time there?
She wasn't "slow playing to trap". She played the hand well considering his aggression on the flop and turn. Her only mistake was folding the river against a line that made absolutely no sense. @@armandosuba3427
@armandosuba3427 Yep, Doug did exactly the same thing. He even showed him the 2 of diamonds just to mess with his head. Xuan seemed tormented for rest of the night lol.
Watched this show live, WOW.....one of the best poker streams of all time. What a gift.
I saw it live too, anti was my first time watching a lodge stream...
2 of Diamonds... What a card to show on that 2nd to last hand!
Check the smile of xuan after doug snap call the allin 😂😂😂
This game looked like my typical home games back in the days w the crazies 😂
Tesla left the 0,01/0,02 NL room
@@SqueezeFade what is this supposed to mean? 😁
@@SqueezeFade ok, that one needed a minute 😁
I like how they made this guy the 'star' of the table. I would want to make him feel good, just to make him come back. He is GOOD action.
The way tesla is just chuckling after showing the black queen is the best part of the video
He showed a red queen
4:42 the look when you thought you were jamming for value and now realize you turned your hand into a bluff😂😂
"You can't read a man if he doesn't know what he has himself."
- Doyle Brunson
lol him showing the 2 of diamonds on the four flush board and Doug folding has to be the most insane hand of the year .. like what the hell could he have there? Doug just wants to keep him around or something
See how Doug didn't yell someone was cheating after the runner runner straight! It's poker!
Damn Doug defo told the editors to stoke his ego with this title so he comes back and donates again!
You think a guy this rich cares about a RUclips video with some odd thousand views? Lol
Trust me a rich person will cry and sue if you bump into them accidentlyif you step on their dirty golf shoes
i was thinking the same thing! very strategic
This is comical af, the sarcasm is wild
This guy tesla really dusted off a ton of money. The one hand when he had kq against aa was interesting, but he never thought he was beat the whole time that the only reason he won. Couldn't put his opponent on any type of hand.
Love the quick show
Doug is one of the best ever to play the game. Watch at 9:47 it took him 6 seconds to feel the brutal bad luck and money forfeited and get over it will future optimism and realization that he did all he could do.
Jeez. What an ATM.
This is the best episode ever!
Tesla with this outfit is like a timetraveler bro, he keeps randomizing reality till' the 8 hit!
Matt Hunt going off in these Lodge games
I was feeling bad for Doug but he pulled it back .LOL
I've never seen a .05/.10 player enter high stakes... and I'm here for it!
I was hoping so bad that Doug would call the flush, I actually thought he would
This was satisfying to watch 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That's a Tilly level fold. One for the old heads.
Xuan: 'he has quad tens! I fold' 😂
I wonder what the world record is for the biggest loss ever at a $1/$2 game back in the day? I was playing in AC 20 years ago and there was a Trop dealer in plain clothes sitting across from me. I knew who he was and that he was a good player. Nevertheless, some guy about 55 in a suit comes over with an envelope full of money and announces that he just won $26,000 playing roulette. He sat on my left, bought in for the max of $300 and went all in every single hand. After rebuying 10 times in a half hour he stood up and asked Dong the dealer at Caesar's (back when they had a great room under the lobby), "Do dealers split the tips or do you get to keep your own tips?" Dong got quite excited and said, "I keep. I keep!" He pushed his whole stack of close to $300 to the dealer and said, "I would rather give it to you than to these 2 guys," and left, perhaps to play roulette again, who knows.
Wow, you really do wonder.
We had a crazy gambler that Lost 80k on a weekend playing 2/4 NL. He was on a drunken coke fueled rage. One of the crazy stories I habe
I watched this live and was absolutely floored when he made the big bust. However, the day previous one of the chatters predicted he would bust out but only the next day he did. I am sure the flight back to Florida was soul searching.
This is play money for Tesla
I watched about 30 minutes of the stream including the Q2 bluff. This guy is a DREAM opponent. IMHO bad idea by Doug/everyone to keep the game going, and eventually felting him for a quarter million. You can shave a cat many times....
20:25 dealer is thinking: "just shut the fuck up y'all, i am working here"
No one is talking about him.
Everyone is going to want to play with him!
Q2 hand was so sick. So fking sick how that went down.
That was maybe the wildest and most entertaining hand I've seen in my life.
His play was Electric
Tesla, Taras and Perkins all at the same table
Give Perkins the AA hand or the 9 high flush and he is calling all day. Can't bluff big money.
3 to 1 on the call with AA and him having a value hand is virtually impossible. Call!!
It’s hard to play against people that have no idea what they’re doing
I really loved the way he played, giving action, big bluffs, always playing, not like some other nits who follow the basic same playing range. Tesla is really enjoyable to watch, same as Keating and Eric.
What an entertaining character 😂
When Xuan said she has aces Tesla was thinking "oh shit I'm bluffing" 😂
“Why would it be in Spanish? Are you racist?” 😂😂😂😂😂 Mariano lol
I like guys like that they keep the games good fun and profitable
All in jack high. Well done 😊
Wow what a run 🏃♀️. But it's a marathon 😅😅 damn. He down. Like Rampage. 😮😮😢
The first hand shows why female Poker players usually get crushed, Liu played that hand extremely emotion and she "felt" like she beaten but If she called the turn then she would definitely call the river because the 6 of diamond changes absolutely nothing.
Lol.. that J9 will be in my thoughts for a while! Nice move tesla
Polk is such a genius.. hes levels above everyone at the table and they come to play poker with him at his house basically.. and somehow he makes them enjoy losing money to him. Its amazing. Its poker hes going to lose some.. but its no telling how much hes made just playing poker at the lodge
I don’t think people realize how strong showing the 2d was. It means his turn bet was real and he was already a made flush. But then he audibly said “I had you at the turn”, instant call there.
As soon as he told Doug " I had you on the turn" with his deuce already face up Doug should have snap called 😅
See this is the difference between someone who knows poker and someone who doesn't. You might get lucky a few times with bluffs, but you'll eventually get stacked and lose it all.
Mariano was choking on those cookies he was laughing so hard
Really like seeing Doug eat the humble pie. Tesla should have never held that hand but sometimes GTO is what you say it is.
That scally is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love the Doug blender.
nice play with J 9 off-suite bro
Donkey play is the most entertaining, but it usually (eventually) gets caught for stacks. He should play Eric (the casino owner) heads-up. Those 2 punters would be an entertaining bingo fest.
I watch thses streams for entertainment, slick rick and skull mike are great at their jobs. I watch brad Hanson videos to think about the game.
Omg😮 straight bluff the Poker Master Polk. Damn smart out play the player not the cards.
lol this guy is good for the game, loved it!
The Classic Bait, Switch and Cook. Those previous hands made him believe he was 'sun running' and when vsing a PROFESSIONAL player he was too quick to pull the trigger and ends up losing it all. UNLUCKY some would say, OUTPLAYED is what most pros would believe
Bro was flying way too close to the sun
Fish was a class act
Where do they FIND these guys?!
And youre telling me none of these legends can just give me 10k as charity?
11:33 Bulldog effectively chewing through the wires on the Model X.
Tesla the kind of guy to raise when he rivers a flush draw
He’ll be Prius very soon if he keeps playing every hand
Epic punter!
I wanna see Tesla back. Would love to see Taras at the same table. That would be a wild game.
And punting rampage
Yeah that what I was saying wanna see taras and tesla lol
In all honesty, wtf is Tesla thinking about when he plays? I can’t even imagine myself making moves like that even if I was a trust fund kid learning how to play.
Literally no consideration for the other players cards, board texture, bet sizings etc. I’m legitimately floored lol. Pure punting at its absolute finest.
I see you dipping your dipping your scissors during trim. I know that occasional red hair can be annoying. Can you say what you were using to keep your scissors clean 🪥 Thanks for posting up ✌️
Should have checked turn and folded to the check raise turn
Man Doug has really grown on me.
Brown and blue farmer chic , it’s electric ⚡️
He had a good loose image he just needed to tighten up towards the end and get value bet nuts
12:30 anyone understand what they were talking about with the A of clubs (which was on the flop) did they mean A of spades?
He was making a bad joke about how the hand would be void of there was two Ac in the deck
Let’s see. 4 hands and 7 commercials. I’m over it.
Wow that was horrible. I was waiting for him to finally nit roll the fish. I guess she was too busy to watch the tape yesterday when I he jammed into QQQ drawing dead and got snapped. Now he is giving her advice lol. I guess she needs advice. Doesn't raise the flop, doesn't jam the turn, and sees ghosts on the river against a payoff wizard.
Good bluff 👍
I wish I was there to play against this maniac lol
Ok, how long after Xuan was the polk one?
The insta jam on the river was such a weak tell and 2 check raises with no cbets is also strange
Can somebody invite me when this Tesla man is playing again ?!
Can you afford the buyin? 😀
Tito vs. Tesla hu will be main event of the year 😅
