Good on ya Rob. And good on Ryan for being cool about it too. If he would’ve kept trying to give the pot to Rob, it wouldn’t have been right. He accepted the lucky break gracefully. Poor Rob though, I get the feeling of drawing dead after making a bad call. Worst time ever to get lucky 😂

Rob is a true gentleman of game. One of many reasons why I play at his club in Nottingham. I actually had a similar situation the other day. Someone bet into me on the river and I hero called with bottom pair. He threw his cards into the middle so I didn't show and he tried to retrieve his cards. Nope, sorry pal, your hand is dead, I don't have to show 😂

I believe yes it is dead. When you make the forward motion and the cards cross the line FACE DOWN it’s a muck whether the dealer grabs it or hits the muck
@@geoffin99Yeah, you're right, I've seen that exact scenario multiple times. I think the "Rob Yong is the classiest man in poker" discourse is mildly overstated, but his accent is SO sexy, I really don't mind. Sparkle sparkle ✨😎
You are correct however Rob himself is saying he intentionally folded because he believed he was drawing dead. He’s also extremely rich so this pot would be like you refusing a $10 pot. It makes no difference to him

@Allister-w3o your type of comment is short sighted and small minded. I can tell you lack intelligence if a my explanation is too much for short attention span
In my opinion, Ryan should've at least gave him half the pot. A similar situation happened to me but "way less money". I was bluffing the river and my opponent went in the tank... after some while he threw his cards down face up revealing pocket Queens. I thought he mucked, so I showed the bluff. The whack ass table talkers started saying "I don't think that was a fold" and continued to hype him up. Thankfully the Man admitted he did indeed intend to fold and awarded me the pot. I offered to split it with him and he denied it. I then gave it to him anyways and thanked him for his honesty.
That is indeed a muck. He didn’t make the call, and exposed his hands..it’s dead, you win. Classy on your part(and his for denying the money) , but you were in the right in that scenario.

Is...This a Seinfeld reference? Bro. You can update ur tech tree in the armory, the Netflix upgrade allows u to use new units like The Office or AP bio
@@jordohiz1493 The jump to conclusions mat is from Office Space. I'd be the same way as Rob. If you muck you muck. Without honor and integrity amongst players we have nothing. I'm that way about any game or sport it's not about winning or loosing it's about doing my best.
Fair play to Ryan for taking the money. You could tell in his eyes how upset he was about this. I just hope he can get past this trauma and get on with his life. Poor poor Ryan. We should check up on him to make sure he ain’t suicidal
You know what was funny? LOL Ryan saying before the river "Its ok, no stop it, its ok!" thinking he was going to win the hand anyway and when the queen is rivered LOL he says "O my god, are y fkng kiddn me?" Like, "and now?"
" no ur good rob stop, rob stop ur good, no no not on a stream. i would never do that especially on a stream" river comes.... send it. thanks. so hilarious
This just can't happen, when you call an all-in online, cards are revealed and we go to the river, you just technically can't fold here, dealer must have been way more strict on this one, it's not a home game, also the cards are not in the muck yet, still distinguishable so the hand is alive
If he was going to show the cards to everyone, he should have never mucked them. Both players made a mistake because Ryan should not have offered Rob to keep his cards alive. The craziest outcome would have been if Rob scooped up the entire pot when the last queen hit. That would have been an epic learning lesson for everyone that ever plays poker. Notice that when the Queen hit, instant regret was felt by Ryan.
meanwhile at Hollywood, UTG says "Check.....I'm out" and flipped up K high; the Button was silent and flipped over Q high. they both missed the flush draw. dealer pushed the $75 pot to UTG. the Button got all worked up saying UTG's hand was dead when he said "I'm Out". Dealer says "No, UTG showed his hand." Floor was called: "I'm out" does not mean anything. Dealer ruling stands.

This is NOT what should have happened. First of all if they were so convinced it was mucked they should. NOT have run the river. Secondly after the river was revealed Ryan the snake should have returned the river bet to Rob

First puts his opponent on a hand that he blocks with one of his holding,then throws his cards thinking he is dead when he was not,and as if it wasn’t enough, declares his hand mucked when his cards didn’t even got close to the muck. Some player Rob Yong!
I've never really watched much of Rob Yong but in the space of 2 minutes I went from not caring about him, to thinking he's an absolute tool, to thinking he's one of the nicest guys to have ever played poker 😆😆😆

Rob is a class act as always, and while I personally am not a fan of Ryan (given his propensity to surround himself with some of the worst people in poker) I think he handled this situation well. That being said, his hand was absolutely still live, as he would not be able to muck his hand regardless given that there was still a card to come. How no one else (especially the dealer, floor) did not chime in is beyond me.
Im sorry but at this level it's the worst muck of a hand I've seen .....what was Rob thinking ??? If you can't concentrate enough to realise you have a queen and outs on the river you shouldn't be playing poker and Ryan Feldman is a lucky man
So this is a very classy move by Rob. In actual Theory because the dealer has not scooped in his cards after he mucked his hand is actually live and rob has every right to flip over his hand because it has not been declared dead yet. If you ever are in a pot with a guy who does this you can ask the dealer to muck the cards as he has attempted to fold before the river, or if you do this as long as your hand is retrieivable then you have the right to pick up your cards. Hope this helped.
I had the exact thing happen to me where a guy mucks not seeing he hit his flush after the river and he went to retrieve and I protested not knowing his hand but it would have beat my trips. Dealer agreed with me and we moved on. What is the rule? I always thought the hand is dead as soon as you toss into the muck? Dealer must scoop for it to be dead?
This muck card ruling depends on house rules. UK casinos would consider Rob’s cards to be dead, as I have encountered several such situations playing there. Rob owns a UK casino and thats why he insists his cards are dead.
It depends on when it happened and what the house rules are. But in my experience, if the player is facing a bet and folds his hand is dead. If it is at showdown, the hand may be ruled live if the cards are identifiable and retrievable. There is discretion built into many rules for the best interest of the game, I.e. player 1 announces flush, player 2 “mucks”, and player 1 does not have a flush. Having said all that , plenty of floors screw it up anyway.
Again it depends on what the house rules are. I said MAY, that is the point. Yes in that situation , that hand is dead, and the dealer should have killed his hand several times, but especially when he said I fold. but the original comment was about what happened in some poker room somewhere else, not what happened in the video. But look up 2024 WSOP cash game rules, section on dead hands, rule 106 and 107., for an example. That might not apply to your casino, but it does to mine. Good luck at the tables!
I have a hole new level of respect for ROB YONG . Even tho it’s the true rule. Props for him doing exactly what he did. There’s no HONOR IN DOING OTHERWISE. Respect is more valuable than money………….

Technically the hand is not a muck but that's the dealers fault because when Rob throws his hand in the middle the dealers job is to take the hand and put it in the muck right away but instead she left it there for 10 seconds and Rob was able to retrieve it and show everyone without it touching the muck.
if he mucked, he mucked, no need to talk. rule is rule. Rob is the man with words, if he said mucked and still take the winning, he has no credit in the future..
Actually the "rule" is that a hand that is retrievable and identifiable can still be recovered. His cards never came close to the muck and it's 100% clear which cards were his. By rule, the hand is 100% live and Rob would win. However Rob decide honor was more important than the pot. He accepted his mistake. If this happened in your local 1/2 game and everybody starting arguing about it, any half decent floor is ruling the hand live.
@@Kanders190 his hand wouldnt have been retrieved if he hadnt been on stream he didn't know he was live until they forced his mucked hand to be open but yeah your right.
people who rigidly follow rules are massive clowns. you're not even being accurate anyway. people can use discretion, floors use discretion all the time. if players agree let it happen. if after Ryan said "it's okay you're still in the hand" then Rob had said okay, that's all that matters. don't be a stickler
At any local casino or cardrooms people get into shouting matches over this type of shenanigans over 50 $ pots I would call this the TMMS "too much money syndrome" ; and highly improbable that this or any mirroring resemblance of this happens at your local card club
I know dealing procedures are different in Europe, but at 0:57 the dealer cuts the cards right before the flop! I can’t tell if she cuts them before the turn or river.
You can't muck your hand during all-in when there is one more hand to come. Why do people say it's good? Yes, it would make sense at the end, but there's still one more card to go...
Rob is true professional of this game, he mucked the hand and that was it!
He’s also savagely funny. Possibly the funniest player on any stream when he gets wound up.
he didnt know what he had, didnt realise he was live, think of the autistic people before making such comments. professional???
Worth noting he runs the biggest poker room in the UK. He REALLY can't be seen to break the rules!
No. He just has fuck you money.... guarantee he sings a different tune if he has to give up his casino instead of a measely 50k.

He was offered so many times to go back, what a class act.
The dude has "fuck you money"... there isn't "honor" or integrity being tested when 50k is nothing to you. If you saw this happen at your local low stakes game and some guy gave up a pot for cents, literal pennies, would you "praise" him? say it was "honorable"? Give me a break.

Good on ya Rob. And good on Ryan for being cool about it too. If he would’ve kept trying to give the pot to Rob, it wouldn’t have been right. He accepted the lucky break gracefully. Poor Rob though, I get the feeling of drawing dead after making a bad call. Worst time ever to get lucky 😂

Went from keep your cards, to how about I don't pay you but you keep the last 52k.

"Put out a river" then loses and takes the money🤦♂️

Rob is a true gentleman of game. One of many reasons why I play at his club in Nottingham. I actually had a similar situation the other day. Someone bet into me on the river and I hero called with bottom pair. He threw his cards into the middle so I didn't show and he tried to retrieve his cards. Nope, sorry pal, your hand is dead, I don't have to show 😂
So, the opposite of the situation lol
Yeah but this pot was 50 K, yours was 50 bucks.

In my humble opinion, this hand is not about money! Mr. Rob Young is a gentleman! People like him are so rare in life that the poker community needs to take note of this man attitude! Well done to him and all the players at the table, especially Ryan Feldman! Well done guys!

His hand isn't dead. It never HIT the muck. It's still retreavable.
youre one of the no class on a taable eeeeeh no integrity
I believe yes it is dead. When you make the forward motion and the cards cross the line FACE DOWN it’s a muck whether the dealer grabs it or hits the muck
@@briandraper7630 Not in most casinos. In most, if it hasn't made the muck it can be re recovered.
@@geoffin99Yeah, you're right, I've seen that exact scenario multiple times. I think the "Rob Yong is the classiest man in poker" discourse is mildly overstated, but his accent is SO sexy, I really don't mind. Sparkle sparkle ✨😎
You are correct however Rob himself is saying he intentionally folded because he believed he was drawing dead. He’s also extremely rich so this pot would be like you refusing a $10 pot. It makes no difference to him

@@DarkTruth1wow you put WAY too much effort in to this comment. Are you ok dude? 😂😂
@Allister-w3o your type of comment is short sighted and small minded. I can tell you lack intelligence if a my explanation is too much for short attention span
Hand was retrievable and it was an all in
In my opinion, Ryan should've at least gave him half the pot. A similar situation happened to me but "way less money". I was bluffing the river and my opponent went in the tank... after some while he threw his cards down face up revealing pocket Queens. I thought he mucked, so I showed the bluff. The whack ass table talkers started saying "I don't think that was a fold" and continued to hype him up. Thankfully the Man admitted he did indeed intend to fold and awarded me the pot. I offered to split it with him and he denied it. I then gave it to him anyways and thanked him for his honesty.
That is indeed a muck. He didn’t make the call, and exposed his hands..it’s dead, you win. Classy on your part(and his for denying the money) , but you were in the right in that scenario.
Lesson: just turn your cards over. In front of you.
Pay that man his moooney.
Feldman? Yes, absolutely

Why did sinan just waste 3 minutes of all of our time
For 55k+ I’d take longer
Can we get time banks back, this hand is ridiculous
Do he lose his money or yours?
Can't believe not even the commentator picked up on why he tanked for so long.
@@m.u.550 its a little dramatic
I've never seen someone do that, what a honest person Rob is... respect!!!
Rob is amazing. What a man of honor and integrity. A lot of money too. Gotta love and respect him
As Doyle would say, it's one day in his life, that is your life 😂
That's like losing 50 bucks to the average American. He'll be fine 😅
I think he was trying to punt off to Feldman intentionally, probably knew the stakes were a little high for Feldman's bankroll.
@@LionAndALambFeldman plays this big constantly
@@BigBoss1979. yeah, I'm just spitballing. But didn't that look like a charitable punt though?
Not the point.
If you were right he only laundered him the equity he had in pot at that moment really. So around 5% of roughly 200k.
The integrity of that man, amazing, not a lot of money for Rob, but still, what a gentleman.
Damn shows straight class and awareness from Rob and his opponent a real man always pays his bets.
I just gained infinite respect for Rob. Just wow. The integrity!
Rob handle that really well. Ryan Feldman setting the standard of good vibes @ the Poker Table
Win LIKE A MAN LOSE LIKE A MAN. Mad respect.
It's funny cause Ryan acts like he wants to give it back but anyone with a brain knows he wants to keep it all.
Rob pulled out the jump to conclusions mat and then fell off the roof.
Is...This a Seinfeld reference? Bro. You can update ur tech tree in the armory, the Netflix upgrade allows u to use new units like The Office or AP bio
@@jordohiz1493 The jump to conclusions mat is from Office Space. I'd be the same way as Rob. If you muck you muck. Without honor and integrity amongst players we have nothing. I'm that way about any game or sport it's not about winning or loosing it's about doing my best.
Fair play to Ryan for taking the money. You could tell in his eyes how upset he was about this. I just hope he can get past this trauma and get on with his life. Poor poor Ryan. We should check up on him to make sure he ain’t suicidal
😂
Rob is the true man of his words , it is another level 🥶
Whoever is doing commentary needs to do it full time this guy is great.
Wow, already thoroughly enjoyed watching Rob on the felt, more-so after this video, nothing but respect!
You know what was funny? LOL Ryan saying before the river "Its ok, no stop it, its ok!" thinking he was going to win the hand anyway and when the queen is rivered LOL he says "O my god, are y fkng kiddn me?" Like, "and now?"
He stopped insisting that the hand was live very quickly after that river 😂
Thats the first thing that came to mind. I could only imagine how awkward that was for Ryan. Hell it made me feel awkward .
" no ur good rob stop, rob stop ur good, no no not on a stream. i would never do that especially on a stream" river comes.... send it. thanks. so hilarious
This just can't happen, when you call an all-in online, cards are revealed and we go to the river, you just technically can't fold here, dealer must have been way more strict on this one, it's not a home game, also the cards are not in the muck yet, still distinguishable so the hand is alive
The dealer isn’t in control of anything here. The players can basically do whatever they want.
Roy Young what a guy! Big respect to him!!
If he was going to show the cards to everyone, he should have never mucked them. Both players made a mistake because Ryan should not have offered Rob to keep his cards alive. The craziest outcome would have been if Rob scooped up the entire pot when the last queen hit. That would have been an epic learning lesson for everyone that ever plays poker. Notice that when the Queen hit, instant regret was felt by Ryan.
meanwhile at Hollywood, UTG says "Check.....I'm out" and flipped up K high; the Button was silent and flipped over Q high. they both missed the flush draw. dealer pushed the $75 pot to UTG. the Button got all worked up saying UTG's hand was dead when he said "I'm Out". Dealer says "No, UTG showed his hand." Floor was called: "I'm out" does not mean anything. Dealer ruling stands.
That’s how much of a stud Rob is. He’s like I acted and I honor my action!!! His life EV is ++++
What a rich ass gentleman.

No matter how you slice it, ultimate respect to Rob here...
This is NOT what should have happened. First of all if they were so convinced it was mucked they should. NOT have run the river. Secondly after the river was revealed Ryan the snake should have returned the river bet to Rob
True, Ryans behaviour is very tilting since he wanted to run the river without any reason for it.. If it hits im still keeping the money lmao

First puts his opponent on a hand that he blocks with one of his holding,then throws his cards thinking he is dead when he was not,and as if it wasn’t enough, declares his hand mucked when his cards didn’t even got close to the muck.
Some player Rob Yong!
still a friendly game , props to Ryan aswell to offer him atleast the half
he never offered half. he said he could take the $53k back.
@dalespencer11 yea well that bet he called and mucked
I've never really watched much of Rob Yong but in the space of 2 minutes I went from not caring about him, to thinking he's an absolute tool, to thinking he's one of the nicest guys to have ever played poker 😆😆😆
Rob is a consummate gentleman. Glad to see honour isn’t dead. Nice move sir
I know nothing about Rob Yong. I know enough. He is my poker spirit animal. In a game of deception, angling, and cheats...this is pure class. Amazing
Rob's a badass for this, gotta be consistent!
Rob is like: ''brother, this is pocket change for me, its fine'' lol

Class act from Rob, but also a class act from Ryan for trying to keep it fair.
Pure class. You don't see this often in Poker. Love it.
Rob is a class act as always, and while I personally am not a fan of Ryan (given his propensity to surround himself with some of the worst people in poker) I think he handled this situation well. That being said, his hand was absolutely still live, as he would not be able to muck his hand regardless given that there was still a card to come. How no one else (especially the dealer, floor) did not chime in is beyond me.
To be clear he did not muck, but even if he had attempted to he would be unable to do so in any casino game.
What a guy, Rob Yong!! Mad respect homie!!
Rob Young the ultimate gentlemen. This is a game of people and a gentlemens game.
Rob is correct.
He is not
Im sorry but at this level it's the worst muck of a hand I've seen .....what was Rob thinking ??? If you can't concentrate enough to realise you have a queen and outs on the river you shouldn't be playing poker and Ryan Feldman is a lucky man
That's an honest man that sticks to the rules.
He clearly was able to retrieve his cards. Floor should have stepped in and gave the pot to Rob. Straight up.
You can’t teach that kind of class. You’re born with it
Rob just got invited to every game in the world
Ryan and Rob both class acts as always 🙌🏽💎
So this is a very classy move by Rob. In actual Theory because the dealer has not scooped in his cards after he mucked his hand is actually live and rob has every right to flip over his hand because it has not been declared dead yet.
If you ever are in a pot with a guy who does this you can ask the dealer to muck the cards as he has attempted to fold before the river, or if you do this as long as your hand is retrieivable then you have the right to pick up your cards.
Hope this helped.
I had the exact thing happen to me where a guy mucks not seeing he hit his flush after the river and he went to retrieve and I protested not knowing his hand but it would have beat my trips. Dealer agreed with me and we moved on. What is the rule? I always thought the hand is dead as soon as you toss into the muck? Dealer must scoop for it to be dead?
This muck card ruling depends on house rules. UK casinos would consider Rob’s cards to be dead, as I have encountered several such situations playing there. Rob owns a UK casino and thats why he insists his cards are dead.
i straight up died when he said i put you on KJh sir you have the J of hearts in your hand lmfaooo
Rob is an absolute class act.
Respect to Rob, the gentlement of the year, man of his words (moves).
That young guy is a 💯...not many like him
"CLOCK!"
Rob is a straight G
Ryan says run the river don't worry about mucking the river comes a queen and straight away ryan says take the 50 back 🤣🤣🤣
Was sitting at a table and witnessed a ruling the that cards are not mucked until it actually hits the actual muck
It depends on when it happened and what the house rules are. But in my experience, if the player is facing a bet and folds his hand is dead. If it is at showdown, the hand may be ruled live if the cards are identifiable and retrievable. There is discretion built into many rules for the best interest of the game, I.e. player 1 announces flush, player 2 “mucks”, and player 1 does not have a flush. Having said all that , plenty of floors screw it up anyway.
Not correct. He clearly intended to fold and three his cards forward. It’s a muck
Threw*
Again it depends on what the house rules are. I said MAY, that is the point. Yes in that situation , that hand is dead, and the dealer should have killed his hand several times, but especially when he said I fold. but the original comment was about what happened in some poker room somewhere else, not what happened in the video. But look up 2024 WSOP cash game rules, section on dead hands, rule 106 and 107., for an example. That might not apply to your casino, but it does to mine. Good luck at the tables!
I have a hole new level of respect for ROB YONG . Even tho it’s the true rule. Props for him doing exactly what he did. There’s no HONOR IN DOING OTHERWISE. Respect is more valuable than money………….

Theres no such "true rule". Its called house rules.
Technically the hand is not a muck but that's the dealers fault because when Rob throws his hand in the middle the dealers job is to take the hand and put it in the muck right away but instead she left it there for 10 seconds and Rob was able to retrieve it and show everyone without it touching the muck.
but at the end of the day that was a super classy move by Rob letting Ryan have the pot since his hand was supposed to be mucked by the dealer
He’s very honest
Playing so called high stakes and mucks before the river card is dealt. Genius
Bart Hansen did a video on this. Since Rob's cards are retrievable, then they are still live. Rob should have been awarded the pot.
if he mucked, he mucked, no need to talk. rule is rule. Rob is the man with words, if he said mucked and still take the winning, he has no credit in the future..
Actually the "rule" is that a hand that is retrievable and identifiable can still be recovered. His cards never came close to the muck and it's 100% clear which cards were his. By rule, the hand is 100% live and Rob would win. However Rob decide honor was more important than the pot. He accepted his mistake. If this happened in your local 1/2 game and everybody starting arguing about it, any half decent floor is ruling the hand live.
@@Kanders190 his hand wouldnt have been retrieved if he hadnt been on stream he didn't know he was live until they forced his mucked hand to be open but yeah your right.
people who rigidly follow rules are massive clowns. you're not even being accurate anyway. people can use discretion, floors use discretion all the time. if players agree let it happen. if after Ryan said "it's okay you're still in the hand" then Rob had said okay, that's all that matters. don't be a stickler
he didn't muck.
If I through my cards face down and the dealer will instantly muck my hands. Only because it’s live and they want to create something dramatic
Always fun to see how " 10 $ home game mistakes " happen to such high stakes players on a TV show 😂
At any local casino or cardrooms people get into shouting matches over this type of shenanigans over 50 $ pots
I would call this the TMMS "too much money syndrome" ; and highly improbable that this or any mirroring resemblance of this happens at your local card club
Integrity? It’s the rules of the game and he mucked. I respect him for not getting all bent about his mistake but it is what it is.
I'm out of words. Salute to Mr. Young!
First, I just became a Rob Yong fan, what a response. Next. I am glad they explained the rule in the video. I didn't know.
Should have given him 50% and call it a gentlemen's decision.
They call this A Rookie mistake🤣🤣🤣
Lucky it's only some change money😂😂😂
The hand is dead as soon the dealer get rid of it so this means Rob his hand is still alive after he retrieved it and opened it.
So thats what we call integrity ladies and gentleman
So much respect for Rob!!
Rob is correct, though the cards aren't dead.
That is very sportsman like, much respect for that guy fair play!!
I know dealing procedures are different in Europe, but at 0:57 the dealer cuts the cards right before the flop! I can’t tell if she cuts them before the turn or river.
to me it seems she shuffles the cards & cut them before dealing the flop. but not very good camera angle
You can't muck your hand during all-in when there is one more hand to come. Why do people say it's good? Yes, it would make sense at the end, but there's still one more card to go...
