Keating is exactly the person you want for live-stream entertainment. An infinite looking bank roll, insane range and superb behaviour. Man knows how to take a loss.
@@bt404 no1 has an unlimited bankroll when it comes to real world, top ranked poker pros. The billionares that play that are good are few and far between. I know Keating has a personal fortune, dunno how much. And think Garrett money too not as much. Dunno what Doyle have after some games he must played in lol. But normal pros are no where near biĺlionares. Multi millionares yes. The Billionares usually stick to cash games tho, not tournaments.
Keating gives 10k-20k "loose action" every here and then, then just gets paid when he has the nuts for 3 pot sized bets. This is the definition of a good maniac.
Still love how during mikki's interview on No jumper he says is biggest advantage is being able to play with no emotion😂😂 dude is the most emotional player i have ever seen.
@@timelapsega Kirk was fun for a few years for his pure gambling but I've never seen someone stuck like a million+ and still be smiling and joking around. It takes a real sicko to get stuck that much and still be enjoying it. Shit, even billionaires that could wipe their ass with a milly and never think twice about it still get salty when stuck that much. Idk if it's just because they don't like to appear 'stupid' and Alan just dgaf or what, but it's really crazy to see from an observational prospective. It's like watching wildlife and seeing an animal behave totally out of the ordinary and not being able to make heads or tails of it.
I'm thinking more and more that we'll someday look back and remember this as the golden age of streaming. How in the world can it get any better than this?
This was the most epic stream of all time. I started watching it Friday night, went to play a home game, came back home and went to sleep. I woke up at 7am and it was still going LOL. Bart you're the best!
Keating is my spirit animal. Also it's so much harder now to watch PokerGO high-roller tournaments with the same 50 GTO robots shuffling money around and staring at each other in silence, I used to watch most of the final tables but just can't do it anymore
Love watching Alan play, next to impossible to put him on a hand...seems like a really nice guy, and letting Mikki off the hook late on in the game..And Bart you did a great job commentating for so long. Is that a record too?
I think my favorite part of the Keating lore is that he was apparently really crushing live 5/10+ during his "come up." Then I guess he made it big in ventures off the felt and now chooses to spend most of his time being a fantastic whale. However, we see him turn on his brain in spots where he wants to, like where he decided to 3x the river vs. J.R. for max value with his straight.
I'm really enjoying seeing pros from that era interact with and talk about Keating. They basically describe it the same as you, I'm sure we'll get some more Keating stories from other people in future games.
mikki has a problem man. that was a little disturbing. if he's got the money it's fine, but he's talking like he doesn't and he's just lighting it on fire. the rest of the stream was some of the best poker i have ever seen. keating is a gentleman through and through. that 35k straddle from ryusuke is going to get talked about for a long, long time.
hes the worst kinda player to play with. crys when he does not win, all happy when hes winning. i hate playing with these kinds of people. you can see it in keatings face, he does not like mikki
It's quite telling that he's in a game over his head if you count the amount of times he openly claimed to be thinking he was ahead in spots where he was crushed and there was multiple legit starting card combos to beat him.
You're right but why is always bragging about how he's self-made and rich? Either he's telling the truth and can afford to lose it or he's a lying fool and deserves it
I’ve never watched the stream, just these clips, but I also get the sense that Mikki is digging himself to the bottom of the barrel and will eventually not be seen from again. Having seen that happen to others in my big poker days a decade ago it’s almost self evident. I consider myself semi-retired from poker now. Never played THESE stakes for cash but I made some decent change. I don’t think I could keep up with the cutthroats at the higher stakes these days. Unlike Mikki, I know my limitations and play the occasional tournament.
Funniest shit ever when Keating was playing against RUclipsrs and says something like, "if I call and you show the nuts, follow me outside because I'm walking straight into traffic" LOL
I remember first watching Alan and thought what a donk! But then the crazy action he gets when he has the best hand can’t be denied. Always great to watch! Love Hustler Casino 🔥🔥🔥
I like Mikki, but the CONSTANT holding onto the cards after you know you lost the hand, trying to figure out HOW you lost the hand, was a little too much to take this stream. Like come on man, you’re not playing your best, you’re running poor, just toss your cards when you figure out you lost the hand and move onto the next one 🤷♂️
He came across as a likeable guy, but I also felt like I was watching a gambling addict losing his grip. When Keating is telling him "don't call" you know it's gone too far.
@@delg1211 if you watched him on other streams he wasn’t like this. He’s normally pretty “even” with his attitude…seen him dust off $300k and just shake hands and leave the game. Which if you watched these streams this week, after he was done bitching he shook EVERYONE’s hand and said good game, good playing with ya, etc. I get the feeling he was playing a little above his stakes this week and running poorly/playing poorly. Shit I’ve seen plenty of dudes at $1/$2 act this way too lol, old and young! 😂🤷♂️
@@brianf7405 Yup, and i also don’t respect the turds playing 1-2 that act like Mikki did ;) I did watch the marathon this past wknd and was happily shocked that the pos did at least shake hands after getting off the canvas. 👍
stanley: how many times do you wanna run it? keating: As many times as it takes to catch a 7 i guess... and the whole table + bart hanson & nitucci in the commentary booth cracks up. dude is sucha character! we love Alan!!
Alan is legit a cash game genius he starts the night by punting off 100-200k, chump change for ther guy. his oppoents then feel they have a serius edge on keating and so keating wants to up the stakes and of course they agree blinds go up. and, because of the image he has he gets paid off in massive pots
I don't know how good/bad is this Keating, just discovered him yesterday. But he got an insane body langage when he wants to look weak and when hes bluffing. If people would watch him better he would become an open book because hes such a master at dissimulation that it becomes quite clear what he could hold.
This is so sick...I haven't come back to the poker scene in a while but I've seen Mikki's god run couple months ago. And now I tune into this episode, he gets absolutely wrekt. Poker is a game of swings and for certain people their luck is extended.
Keating is an awesome player with the pockets to play as he does. Plus, he’s just straight up entertaining. That hand with Hanks where they both river trips and he says “I wouldn’t have called” when Hanks mutters “fuck” under his breath is priceless 😂
I don't say this lightly about Alan Keating , I don't think there has ever been a more GENUINELY LIKEABLE personality in the history of Internet Poker streaming, it's literally almost impossible not to like his personality, and play style ..Obviously we don't know him outside this online personality , but he comes across as a genuinely likeable person..and that is absolutely golden on these streams , and the fact he doesn't seem to be fazed by money is also a quality in these games.. that makes it immeasurably more entertaining
Yep - loses $200k + and doesn't whine or offer a single complaint. Wins a big pot and tells the other player "bad luck." All the while cold calling 3 bets out of position to $15k with K4os.
Keating has such a classy poker-mood style to in his persona. He is always how I thought of a "poker player". He dresses like a liar xD 8:04 "How many takes it times to find a 7 I guess..." Legendary table talk.

you wasted time watching him get interviewed by a dude who does porn. Something wrong with you
Because Mikki's whole "persona" is a scam.
@@RockHardTruckerdude is using gambling as a front for illegal crap
And then he might say his emotions were a bluff since it was a poker game
The brilliance of Bart Hanson! 24hours of high level live commentary, props to you Bart!
Facts
I 100% agree
If Mikki called into Bart with a few of those hands on the Monday call in Bart would tear him a new one lol
We need Mickey to call the fuck in!!! Let’s go Bart! Lol
24 hours wow lol
Hilarious when Mikki goes insane with K4 and then says, "How did I screw this up?" hahah
True degenerate lol
Alan Keating is the best player to join a poker livestream in history.
I'd nominate Matt Kirk for that, he lost $5m in a few days playing PLO on The Big Game Montreal like 4 years ago
I just like him because he can lose 300k pot with a smiling face

@@timelapsega Aussie Matt had a ridiculous amount of bitcoin that he held onto for a while so I'm sure he could handle the swings just like Keating.
he is a whale bro... like legit he is the reason that game is running hahahahhaha "best player"
Keating is infinitely better for livestream cash than Hellmuth. The numbers show it
Hellmuth was the worst person in the show ever. I'd rather see Armenian Mike slow rolling with kings and fake raising than Phil
The only person you're arguing against is Hellmuth.
What do you mean by better for livestream ? This is not a spectator oriented sport 😂 Might as well add cheerleading girls and laser light show 😂
While I agree with you, I also think that Phil is good for a Livestream, a clown always makes the show better
Mikki is a calling station
I'm thinking more and more that we'll someday look back and remember this as the golden age of streaming. How in the world can it get any better than this?
What a dramatic, hyperbolic comment lmao

The world might end soon
@@wolverinex4243 true but what relevance?
That’s what I thought on Thursday and then the Friday show came…

Throat goat
now wipe ur mouth
This was the most epic stream of all time. I started watching it Friday night, went to play a home game, came back home and went to sleep. I woke up at 7am and it was still going LOL. Bart you're the best!
The nice thing about Alan is that he's genuinely funny and so chilled when losing.
Being financially free makes life alot more chill and enjoyable in general
@@dylanenski2199 exactly it’s easy to be chill and laugh when 145k is chump change
It’s still not a given, he still chooses to be a seemingly good dude. Being rich doesn’t guarantee that.
I'd like to know where he gets his money because it definitely isn't from poker.
Maybe he smiles when he feels sad like the joker
keating is a beast...absolute class act...no tilt...he won big pots lost big pots dude just smiles ...
That’s because he has a crazy amount of wealth. He’s usually, by far, the richest person at the table.
"He's almost even" haah that sent me. He really is a good player when he wants to be
"I wouldn't have called" *looks around nervously* - hahaha brilliant!!! I love Keating!
Man that Alan Keating is rich, young and a good looking. Lucky bastard.
When Keating said I wouldn't have called in the hand vs Hanks, I've never laughed louder watching these streams I'm an Alex Keating fan forever
Alan
It was funny wasn’t it. Knowing he would raise that spot everytime.
Keating is my spirit animal. Also it's so much harder now to watch PokerGO high-roller tournaments with the same 50 GTO robots shuffling money around and staring at each other in silence, I used to watch most of the final tables but just can't do it anymore

Nobody knows how most of these guys have money
He Will go to jail just like all the other people playing like this Lmao.

On a more positive note, Keating is a fucking legend 🙌🙌
Mikki is already challenging Eric Persson's record as the all-time greatest punter at the Hustler Casino.
So funny to see him loose huge pots when his ego is as high as it is 😂😂
Gets check raised on the river
“There’s no way I’m good”
*calls anyway*
you really wouldnt guess but Mikki is a class act. Even his losses are handled well. Keating and Mikki at a table is a must watch for me everytime
Makes sense, you have to be nice and classy if you're tryna sell the BS he tells. If you're a good guy, people will want to believe you more.

High level IQ
That's the hustle right there!
Works beautifully if you hit the right cards e.g. that Ace hearts couldn't have been more perfect.
Nobody is more entertaining in a poker game than Alan Keating
Love the enthusiasm Bart brings to the stream
I'll never get tired of hearing Bart's GTO calculator-brain have a meltdown when hes trying to analyse a dude like Mikki lol
Id rather watch Alan Keating play poker than any other competitor compete at anything
Some streams you can watch and nothing happens for hours, with keating he seems to be in a big pot every 5-10 minutes. Crazy to see and enjoyable
I love Alan Keating. I’d love to see a compilation of Mikki getting owned too.
These streams ruined watching poker for me - where else can you find this high of stakes this unbroken with advertisements? Incredible.
Mikki: I don’t have nothing here I’m pretty sure I’m gonna lose
Also Mikki: calls $50,000
Punters are amazing for the game. They create action when there shouldn’t be any, and he does a great job of keeping it all the same
How could this guy not be The Batman?
I just love Alan , he is absolutely a very cool dude
Clearly the best stream since the old school High stakes poker episodes
Mikki is a calling station

Gotta love Alan, gives action and is a fucking gentleman. God bless you.
Keating has such a smug fly swatting tilt inducing faceplate. Great for the game.
“Glad I didn’t slow roll you” 👌
Alan Keating just sounds like a serial killer name, then you see him and it’s like. Holy shit he might be.
The way he put Mikki on such tilt after those 2 boats was brilliant...he had Mikki stunned with those hands.
“We’re not quitting.”

Well, they don't call it donk bet for no reason.

Showing his losses was really good. He plays super aggressive that most opponents light call him.
God dammit bart, you knew this would be a hit 😂 thanks for this
Best most entertaining player, Alan Keating number 1. Will always tune in to a Keating stream
The brilliance is you think he’s a maniac but he’s a calculated maniac, so he has to get paid off when others can’t
Mikki came back and was up and lost it all back later. Wow
Keating is my favourite player. Skilled and not toxic
Mikki refusing to lay down top pair over and over on a full table just blows my mind
I hope Keating will play triton cash game with these crazy fearless asians like Rui Cao, Elton Tsang and Tan Xuan. That stream would be gold🥳
Nothing better than Keating wining piles from Miki

Allen Keating is truly the modern 007 of poker, I mean this guy has the looks he dresses so sharp his poker skills super high level....
Never, ever fold a flush. You go down with the ship!
As many times as it takes to find a seven is gotta be the funniest shit I’ve heard
"I'm glad I didn't slow roll you." 🤣 6:44
Keating is such a beast. Hilarious guy too. Just downright awesome and the perfect player for this stream!
how does mikki have money
I love how Bart stay and comment for 10+ hours straight on how to play hand intuitionally correct and the whole table just gone full degen
keating vs dwan heads up
Alan is the POKER BOND

Alan is just awesome to watch ~ makes poker fun!! Mikki is fun on the table as well! Go HCL!

The fact that JRB found a way to not make Keating bet a river with top pair in position is honestly impressive
What were the final win/loss numbers?
Keating is the GOAT - Harder to read than Ancient Greek
Jesus. I couldn’t play with JRB. He’d have me laughing the entire game.
The announcer say JR can’t call Keating’s huge bet. JR called simply because it was Keating.
Keating, Perrson and Mikk gave away a lot of money that night.
I was hoping to see the max value vs JR. That's the thing about his playing style, he gets max value when he has it. Very fun to watch.
So Mikki adds smacking his bubblegum to the general annoyance of his table presence.
Keating the live stream GOAT - action AND good vibes. Nitucci TAKE NOTES
I was in Hustler this night. Saw a couple of these guys. Only one I recognized was immediately was Mikki.
