    Johnny Chan: I never told anyone this, but I sat down with Jason Bourne. He’s had some tough luck lately, so I let him win a hand.

      Only thing I wish hold em would put in the rulebook is time management. I think when someone calls or raises then you have 60 seconds to make your decision to lay it down or play back. Sometimes players just sit for 2,3 4 or 5 minutes chatting about the weather before they make a move. I would ban sunglasses also.

    • @blastofo
      @blastofo 5 лет назад +2

      You really dont see people take more than a minute to decide their move in most games, its pretty much a high stakes thing. And when its televised they dont mind because it builds suspense. I think not allowing sunglasses is a good idea. They should also not allow alcohol. They consider poker a sport but no sport allows drinking while playing.

    Mike: I did get beat, but I know I'm good enough to play in the NBA. I never told anybody this. About 8-9 months ago, I'm shooting hoops at Rucker Park when Lebron James walks in. The whole place stops cause it's Lebron the f'n "King" James. And people are challenging him like to pickup games, 21, Around the World, Horse. So I got into a big game of Horse.
    Knish: Impossible. You need 300, 400 bucks for the buy in.
    Mike: Well I had 10 bucks, but I had to know. So I'm just hanging around the court, passing the ball, doing nothing for about 15 minutes when I decided, I'm going to beat him on this shot. I'm just going to out-shoot the guy. So I went to mid-court and I let one fly.
    Knish: Nothing but net?
    Mike: No it hit the backboard and then rattled around the rim a bunch of times before it finally slopped in. "You made THAT shot?" he says. "That's an 'H on you Bron" I replied and then I picked up my ball and walked away. I took on the best in the NBA and I WON.

You see in his face that he lives the scene that Mike recounts, that thrill he feels about the fact that Mike sat down with the best and held his own. What an amazing, versatile and criminally underrated actor.

      It's not the worst story. It's just that Chan couldn't find a tell on him that he was bluffing. But with a guy folding every hand for an hour and suddenly making 3- and 5-bets, it's kind of normal for Chan to fold his hand.

    Playing poker is never defined by playing one hand. It's the consistency with which you do it, and if over time you find yourself on the right side of the ledger, you might be able to hang with the best of them.

    • @TheGuyCalledX
      @TheGuyCalledX Год назад +1

      Exactly. From Johnny Chan's perspective, the tight passive short stack that's been folding for an hour suddenly is repping a ton of strength preflop. More often than not, you'd be correct to assume they have a good hand. Nits are very easy to play against for pros. Playing like a nit then going hog wild with air in a single hand means absolutely nothing.

    What Knish should've said: "Yeah, Mike. Good for you. But...the difference between you and Johnny Chan is that he could *afford* to muck to you - you said it yourself, rich schmucks were dumping free money on him all night, including you. You didn't 'outplay' him, he just demonstrated how little winning against you meant to him because you'd *paid* him for that win waiting for the perfect opportunity. That's why even after 'beating' him, you still speak about him with such reverence, and he forgot your face a second and a half after you got up from the table."

    I never told anybody this... but I was at the Bellagio one night, and Daniel Negreanu walked in. The whole place stops, I mean, that's the guy from the loosy goosey Masterclass ad.. So I sit down at the table. I just knew I had to play the best, and see if I belonged. It was a 400/800 game, and I had 8 thousand. We both play the very first hand. He's in position and he raises me in the big blind. I re-raise immediately. He comes right back over the top of me with another big raise, treating me like a guy who doesn't have a signed Phil Hellmuth book at home. I don't hesitate, re-raise... He looks at me closely... up and down, up and down. Then he gives me a wink, and finally folds. I get up and cash in my chips. I head for the door. To my surprise, he's standing in the doorway. He smiles, and then hands me a tupperware box full of vegan pasta. I say thanks. Then he hands me a business card for a hair transplant specialist in the Los Angeles area. I thank him again, but now decide to make a quick exit... And as I stepped out into the cool Las Vegas night, I saw Knish from Rounders. I tell him about Daniel, the hand I won, the whole experience, and the vegan pasta. He rolls his eyes, and then quietly whispers in my ear and says. Bro, he was hitting on you.

      Unlucky either way, but there are some highlights where you can see really strong players in the blender trying to find a way to fold a full house because they're confident they're up against a better boat or quads. Often they can't even when the impulse is there but I can believe there are players good enough to run into a bigger boat and think they should've gotten away.

    This scene best exemplifies Mike's character as being delusional. So he won 1 hand off a pro and thinks that's his ticket to the big leagues of gambling. If he was really the player he thought, he would continue to gamble and see if he could actually go toe to toe with the best. He walked away from that table with a bunch of losses and 1 win (less money I imagine) . Anyone can get lucky and that is the problem with gambling- better to be lucky than good if there is such a thing. So never gamble what you can't afford to lose. Life lesson that Mike never learns as evident at the end of the movie with his pipe dream about going to the World Series of Poker .

    • @ThatGuyJ0sh
      @ThatGuyJ0sh 10 лет назад

      penncrow Yes I do play poker. Damon says he mostly folded for an hour which means his stack could not be greater than 6000. In the play with Chan he raises and re raises without going all in , which is impossible with a CSI of 6.67. Go learn something about the game you fucking moron.

    • @penncrow
      @penncrow 10 лет назад +6

      sh1tabr1ck First of all, just because he folds mostly, doesn't mean he cannot be greater than 6000, he could have picked up a few small pots here and there to compensate for his blinds. Secondly, a 5 bet in this case would be about half of his stack (assume his stack is close to 6000). Lastly, you have to realize that before you started watching poker on ESPN, the popular game was Limit Hold'em. It is obvious in this movie that they are playing 300/600 limit at the Taj. Which means your fancy CSI means nothing. And stop telling others to learn the game when you are no expert at it yourself.

    The hand is awful but they are definitely deep enough for that betting aspect to be true. Firstly he didn't 5bet, he 4bet. Second the game was limit, not no limit, so he actually has 10 big bets. At 300/600 the blinds would be 150/300, so a 4 bet preflop would only be 1200. Though Johnny Chan literally never fold pre getting such good odds on a call.

      @penncrow 10 лет назад +8

      Well, in one hour, you usually get about 15 hands at a live table. He said he "mostly" folded for an hour, so that means he probably picked up a few blinds here and there, which would make up for his sb/bb. Pot was raised 4 times (2 by Johnny, 2 by Mikey), thats about 2400, which is about half of his stack roughly.

Lets say Johnny bets the minimum - 2bb, then matt 3bets minimum - 4bb, then johnny 4bets minimum - 8bb, then matt is left with only 2bb which is not enough to make anyone fold with this pot. Plus dont forget that i used a scenario where they raise each other the minimum amount which is very rare especially with pro players.

He said he only sat down with 6k..leaving him with only 10 big blinds in a game this size. He said he played tight and mostly folded for an hour. So that stack would be down to about 7 bigs. At best... then he claims to have played a betting war with Chan and "outplaying" him with nothing. But in reality, with ONE raise from Chan theres literally not a realistic chance in mankind history that he would fold a re raise to a stack of only 7 or so big blinds 🤣

    when johnny chan raised and lays the chips down, he deliberately puts an extra ummf at the end of his toss, attempting to show the confidence with his raise as well as to over exaggerate the amount of chips he bets, in hopes that matt would fold, or at most equally call his bet, for Johnny chan knew his cards weren't that strong to attempt to re-raise matt if matt re-raises him, which he ends up doing. In order for matt to not catch on to his minor bluff, johnny again raises with false confidence. But matt goal was to outplay him, and got lucky that chan did have weaker cardsm because if chan was trying, he would have taken him for all his money in less than 5 minutes.
