I like this Brewer guy, he takes Doug's victory lap like a champ and even offers a smile and congratulations after Doug collects himself after those laps around the table lol
I think his smile was at the "your on the outs" joke, but I totally agree. Super hard to stay that composed when you're catching bad beats like that, especially as frequently as it seems to happen to him.
I like him too, I enjoy playing with poker players who share the same attitude. unlike some others, he has poker etiquette. The emotional maniacs don't bother me at all, I just think they are classless. Having fun and having decorum are not mutually exclusive.
Glad to see Doug is balancing out his celebration range. 80% of the time he would normally tear his shirt off and do the fish flop dance, but he chose a more conservative route this time.
Doug, you are the best. Period. I'm an old man (76) and set in my "poker ways", but I love your content... Always. As Pinocchio said to Geppetto... "Keep up the woodwork." LOL
Thanks for taking some time to take a photo with me on Friday, I was so nervous I forgot to tell you GL...but looks like you didn't need it. Congrats 🎉
Anyone who claims they can beat a casino house-edge game with "secrets" is a fool. If you actually can, why would you publicize the fact? The only reason the Ivey edge-sorting thing became public was because the casino sued him LOL
Congrats on your finish. In spite of your breaks from the game between the D-Negs challenge and your resent return; you’re still definitely in the convo for the best HUNL Hold ‘em. We’re all herek pwww qcheering you on. Congrats on the “make back your losses from the Hustler grind. You’ve got such an naturally entertaining personality. Your sportsmanship and humility (especially when you’re down big from the hustler stream was admirable. Your celebration in this hand was all for the entertainment and le memes; coming from other players (like Personn) it might be a bad look but coming from you? It was pure entertainment. We’re rooting for your success and you’re a joy to watch. Keep doing you, Doug. Proud of you my dude.
hello Doug Polk. my name is Alex. I'm from Romania. I work in the UK as a chef (I made a personal presentation to make it clear that I'm not a professional poker player) I play occasionally just for "fun".i have watched all your videos for 6 years. it's my first comment left for someone on youtube. I personally think your game strategy at the poker table is brilliant (regardless of stakes), the fact that some people don't like you in the poker world has become a big advantage for you, especially in the last 3 years. You're brilliant. Just one piece of advice from an insignificant person like me..don't drink alcohol at high stakes. have a great day!!
Brewer is such a cool dude not only for how he handled the best but even after he asked if you had aces and immediately feeling bad. Dudes a killer who has ran so bad in some big spots he’s going to win a lot for a long time. Great run Doug glad you got in there wish you could have taken it home
haha that celebration was the best mate... loved it! and you are right, we have watched you handle the bad beats really well.. time to release it all when you win. Good win Doug
Love your reaction. Celebrate with joy. Theres a lot of chance in poker also - so we all accept beats. Shit happens to everyone. Love your enthusiasm. Spread the joy
I found you because I met DnGs years ago and never met a funnier person. We traded switching accents . That was decades ago! Then, while checking up on his stuff, I was algorithmic programmed to get things from a partner of yours. I don't have the poker rules locked down. But I loved his jiggidies and dead pan humor. Then you were someone I learned about. All I know about poker is the fact I am a tarpon, marlin or ,most likely ,a tiny bluegill
It was weird because it was like the previous board or similar that Doug had bluffed and got him to fold. K, 2 pair, set and straight all beat him and he still ended up calling that hand with a 6 and no kicker.
@@alexandrevaz-filion783 In that spot his kicker doesn’t really matter since doug shouldn’t be x/r’ing any better 6x on the turn unless it’s 6cXc which isn’t possible (since we hold the 6c). I think it more came to a spot that he thought he may have to call some one pair hands and likes having the 8 for the blocker to 89 and that his 8 didn’t block 8cXc bluff combos. Doug definitely has a lot of strong hands too don’t get me wrong, but I’m just assuming that’s the thought process that leads to calling down with the 6 in that spot.
I think Khun got so flustered it actually affected his play. I think if he wasn’t so flustered and nervous he might have thought some hands over a little more. He also made some big lay downs with the winning hand. Which seemed to increase his fluster.
I agree, I think he peg Doug for a bluff and was just calling down. Which is a bad way to think because bluffs can come in. In his defense Doug polarized it to big hand or air.
@@stevenwalker9013 yeah I wondered if he went with a smaller turn sizing how the action would play out. If you see this Doug, could you go for a smaller turn size there. And if so would it be more likely to induce a fold or 3 bet from Khun. It probably doesn’t matter because if he calls you’re likely still following through on the river.
He was struggling with the time bank scenario. I think at that time he only had one, maybe two left. I think he just had to go with his gut that he had air. If he can think it over more, he might lay it down.
Good luck in your next event's good run on 25k awesome to see the genuine celebration tho i loved it lol, kinda does suck for the opponent but i don't think you we're even thinking of that in the moment
It's the fact that you are really great in your losses that makes your celebrating wins totally okay in my book. It's the people who are a-holes when they lose that I can't stand.
People don't understand that bad beats don't average out in the end. Like flipping a coin. If you lose say eight flips in a row you never get those losses back. What happens is that if you have tens of thousans of flips those eight losses become a smaller percentage over time. In big events in life, or one-off opportunities, there are not enough big spots in the future to overcome the truly bad beats. Like Atlanta blowing the Super-Bowl to Tom Brady. That's a forever bad beat. This spot here for Brewer cannot really be overcome, because even though he will be in a number of similar spots in the future, there won't be enough of them to truly erase the pain and expected gain he had right before the card was turned over.
Love it .... didn't love the bluff on the Million Dollar game and AA fold 🙂... but hey, you seems having fun , so be it . But i like the clear messages you send out there .
as far as the check goes, I found this How Long Is a Cashier's Check Good For? The expiration date on a cashier's check depends on the bank. Some cashier’s checks have a "void after X days" disclaimer, usually between 60 to 180 days. Other cashier's checks have no expiration date and should remain valid as long as the bank operates.

you dont look enough like a cartoon dog when you do the headshake anymore. just need to take the headset off to get it right.
Really bad etiquette on your part with the QQ but karma is a bitch!
You handled that with the utmost class and dignity. Oh, wait, you're the other guy
Face Rampage heads up at Hustler!
Congratulations. That was a dope run...
for someone not in the poker inner circles, you sure got a lot of high fives from a circle of poker fans
he certainly was running in the inner circle
😂
These were obviously people from the outer circle, Doug instantly ran away from the inner circle (the table) as soon as he celebrated
There’s more fans in the outer circle, the circles get larger as you go outwards
Detractors said circle...jerk.

Chris Brewer is a beast. Professional through and through.
@@cbrreezzyy69 if by beast you mean confirmed cheater, then you're right
@@eliottsmith6908 If by confirmed cheater you mean someone who uses preflop charts like 90% of winning online players than youd be right
I like him too, I enjoy playing with poker players who share the same attitude. unlike some others, he has poker etiquette. The emotional maniacs don't bother me at all, I just think they are classless. Having fun and having decorum are not mutually exclusive.
That knocks about 7 years off the 20 year channel grind to get that money back, good job Polk.
Yeah right, he probably had .05% of himself
I think if there is one format Doug would have all of himself in, it would be heads up.
@@brandendierker5873 supposedly he did sell off a piece. Rumor is he sold off 10%
Deeb seemed to confirm he had 10% of Polk when he was playing 1.5k Stud Hi FT.
@@brandendierker5873 He said he would have %20 or %25. That's still a lot of money.
Doug had a moment in life to do the Happy Gilmore and he took it. Good for him. 👍👍👍
Glad to see Doug is balancing out his celebration range. 80% of the time he would normally tear his shirt off and do the fish flop dance, but he chose a more conservative route this time.
Never change Doug, we need people to have fun at the poker table!! Screw the haters
100% yes ! Passion at the poker tables is too rare.
Doug, you are the best. Period. I'm an old man (76) and set in my "poker ways", but I love your content... Always. As Pinocchio said to Geppetto... "Keep up the woodwork." LOL
76 confirmed with that great-grandad joke. Wwooww
@@brandendierker5873 I didn't believe he was 76 until i read the Pinocchio joke as well, hahaha.
Have another coffee
Keep on keeping on man! N cracked them young whipper snappers at the table
STFU, you're not 76, you just have the picture of a 76 year old man that you can easily find on Google images
Thanks for taking some time to take a photo with me on Friday, I was so nervous I forgot to tell you GL...but looks like you didn't need it. Congrats 🎉
wym didn't need it, man had 2 outs on the river and got there lmao
@@chujwie4028 True. But I meant he didn't need it from me, he already had his own luck.
I love that you are updating the videos instantly from the hotel. Shows the true passion you have for this stuff. TY much love.
Mikki is the most obvious grifter of all time
I would agree but it's so obvious to everyone that he's lying that is he even grifting anyone?
He comes across like a grimy auto mechanic or something.
@@Mike-qo4kp Absolutely perfect description
Anyone who claims they can beat a casino house-edge game with "secrets" is a fool. If you actually can, why would you publicize the fact? The only reason the Ivey edge-sorting thing became public was because the casino sued him LOL
@@Mike-qo4kp He comes across as a pathetic poseur.
I love your excitement Doug. Be true to you. Congrats on 2nd in the HU ❤ Legend 🎉
that wasn't a "rubbing it in someone's face" celebration. That was*pure* joy and elation. Congrats.
Definitely wasn't very classy.. but not like Doug is famous for being classy, he's famous for being awesome =p
yeah no one accuses Doug of being a class act.... he certainly seems to be leaning into that persona lately

That berkey clip never gets old. Lmao.
Man Brewer is an absolute boss
5:41 I love the goose stepping on your second lap 😂😂🤣
You that got that feeling, diverted on the fly, changed Course and did well in that Heads up Tourney.
Well done!
Good run for your tournemant m8! The reaction was priceless
Good for you Mr. Polk! Thanks for everything you do for the game.
you are a great ambassador for poker!! probably the best ever!! congrats on the win !!
logical and funny ! You are a breadth of fresh air keep it up
The celebration is so awkward. It’s like Doug found out he is not the father on Maury, but more awkward even.
That was awesome you definitely deserved it. You add soo much life and passion to the poker world. Don't ever change doug.
I loved how you transitioned from the Polk shuffle, to the Jig! Lol

Love your reaction. Celebrate with joy. Theres a lot of chance in poker also - so we all accept beats. Shit happens to everyone. Love your enthusiasm. Spread the joy
you are a legend Doug, mad respect from New Zealand
Your reaction was the top of my vegas trip highlight reel so far epicness
The classy win... you do the River Dance while doing laps around the table. Nice.

Happy for you sir. What an incredible river.
You crack me up. Love to watch you play!
Hearing you and the rail from the other live stream was hilarious, GG Doug!
I loved the celebration. Was good to see you so happy playing poker again doug
Loved the reaction Doug, its great for the game.
Great job man!
Doug polk running around like that reminds me of that happy Gilmore scene where happy is doing the same dance/run 😂
I loved your celebration, amazing!!!!
Where can we watch the full heads up match?
Keep it up brother, don't let nonsense get in your way. You,Brad,Rampage and Daniel,will be the future of poker...
I think the celebration was prefect, was an amazing hand with a crazy river...good job
you are slowly becoming a legend
would love the vlog of the wsop of events you are doing.
I stayed up late watching you rooting you on. I can't believe he called with the 6's. Thrilled that Shulman came out on top.
It was weird because it was like the previous board or similar that Doug had bluffed and got him to fold. K, 2 pair, set and straight all beat him and he still ended up calling that hand with a 6 and no kicker.

That must be Doug's best Deon Sanders impersonation.
Congrats, not bad from someone who no longer plays poker
You are a class act. The way you handled the non-stop needling in the Hustler game while being stuck was super human. You are so fun to watch.
Such an eloquent winner!!! Congrats!!!
Great video as always :)
Did you sell action for the heads up tourney?
Was fun watching you play heads up. unlucky he called grats on second at least 👍
Thanks for everything Doug!
Congratulations!🎉🎉
For a moment, I though Doug must have been playing an online event and won it last night. Great content as always!
What were you doing in the Rio?
So nice to have an expert that still does well at his expertise, rare
Guess we'll have to wait for the Heads Up Master Class
You won me over with that celebration, congrats
"if you don't like it.. don't watch" :D love it
Keep up the great work Supreme Leader Douglas 😎
Can't wait to see you win your next bracelet. 👍
Keep it up Polk. You the best.
the mic is much better, thanks doug.
Drillin’ boxes and WSOP at the Rio.
It's good for show, keep running
Love how he still calls it the Rio

Epic celebration, Mad Hatter approved 🎩🐇✔
Doug getting CUT in the tank top!!! Hahahahah
''love ya work doug''lets f...''n go.cheers
You are right
You’re on the outs! Nice W Douglas
Congrats Doug!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Doug, you should try adding timestamps on youtube. Makes it much easier for people to skip to certain sections
Polk celebration bringing back the emotion in poker that left a few years ago
Eff that, celebrate away! That's why we watch you! Keep it up! 🍻
gg in the hu event i knew it wouldnt be long b4 u earned back that millski u punted off at hustler live
Does upswing teach us how to hit 2 outers in big spots?
At the 11:05 mark, did he say walking through the rio? He meant the horseshoe right?
doug doing the dylan mulvaney price is right impression
Your physical expression is exactly what Durr was feeling in his head in the HCL $ 1 million cash game against you with his full house
It's the fact that you are really great in your losses that makes your celebrating wins totally okay in my book. It's the people who are a-holes when they lose that I can't stand.

You also don't really remember the good ones. Plus usually lose anyway.
Hell yeah Doug! The celebration was GREAT😅😅😅
Keep doin your thing Doug!
What are those shoes nick schulman is wearing?
It would have been really really funny if Landon was in the background rooting for the other guy .. while taking notes in your heads up finale
He said "walking through the Rio", lol.
Doug running around like Ed Grimley out there
nice to see doug playing again

Hey Doug. You was walking through the Rio???
