To help people understand #23, the simplest way to explain it is they are playing a game where they are trying to make the worst possible 5 card poker hand. They get to draw after each betting round of which there are 3. Bryce Yockey was dealt the 2nd best (worst) hand possible before any draws so he doesn't make any draws after each betting round and stands pat each time. Josh Arieh draws all 3 times and after the 2nd draw he makes a 6 high straight which is bad in this game. He draws a final time to make the best possible hand (called the wheel) of 75432 which is the "worst" hand in poker you can make without making a straight. The odds of 2 players getting the best possible hand and the 2nd best hand is EXTREMELY low. It is like a player getting a royal flush over another players smaller straight flush except this is even worse because they don't share cards in this game. Hopefully this helps. Feel free to ask questions!
Oh yea I remember this hand but I only play NL HE so struggled to get my head around the percentage chance of this happening. Think the odds were insane for him to lose the hand cant quite remember what I read
The only possible way Arieh would throw away the 6 is if the 6 low straight came in. 99.843% favourite after the cards are dealt. We dont even see what cards were shared with the other 2 players at the table.
He needs exactly 75432 to win, but starts with only the 53; he then picks up the 2 on the first draw which keeps him in (maybe a 4 also works, but less likely) The second draw is where it starts getting nasty: he needed to draw exactly a 4 in that spot, as that is the only card that will prompt him to discard the 6 on the third draw, which (unknown to him) he absolutely needs to if he is going to win. If instead, he drew the 7 for the 76532, he has third nuts but loses. On the third draw, he only wins with a 7, and it comes. Less than 1% after the first draw, he hits the running 4-7 when nothing else would have done. 🤢
I’m still sticking by my #1 being Chris Moneymaker bluffing Sam Farha with King High heads up in 2003, I can’t think of any other single hand that changed poker forever than that one, showing a then nobody can outplay a pro in a hand that wasn’t luck helped really ignite the poker boom. Come on PokerGO don’t let me down!
I love that one at 25 where it’s young Phil. He’s just like a lil nerdy guy talking about odds completely jacked up after winning. Favorite clip so far
Showers is plural, so he is either taking a single shower per year or multiple showers, not both. It's the same as suggesting that someone has one children or can eat six taco. I'm also noticing your utilization of the small dash. That symbol when used mathematically is meant to signify a negative sum total; so are you trying to say Schwartz is taking a negative number of showers in a year. How is this possible? I think you need to rethink your -life's choice before criticized +Justin's.
That Bryce hockey hand will never not be anything but sickening, he was a 99.843% favourite. That Arieh even improved to a straight to pitch the 6 was ridiculously unlikely. Schulman is the most mellow commentator and his reaction says it all.
quite obviously he put on an act to look flustered and seem nervous. To try to make it seem like he was bluffing to force a bet from kassouf and pull out the pocket aces
I know people like to rail on Hellmuth and he is out of line sometime, but when at 4:13 he said, "To you it's Poker but to me it's my life" - can't help but respect that.
Correct. I understand people can do what they want but nothing Phil said was wrong. Guy had no business even being in the hand. It makes the online game so tough. I do pretty well but when you have people with little knowledge and plenty of money you run into this crap all of the time. It is so frustrating.
White guy from a rich family who turned to poker after a failed gaming career saying "check your privilege" to a self-made lawyer from an immigrant family is peak irony
he did nothing wrong all tournament, he did exactly what tony g used to do, annoy the opponents, that's it, but everybody cried cause it's "verbel abuse". the hand with the lady when kaspff made her fold queens, and the complain was: "yeah if he didn't talk she would have called" i mean yeah, thhat's exactly what a ecellent table talk does
Agreed. That dude was too soft, and he just got lucky with the cooler. The other guy is definitely one of the most annoying, snakey dudes at the table, but I never heard or saw anything out of line.
Maybe but if you're going to annoy people that much, be prepared to get called out. That's all. Not everyone is going to play your shtick with you. Period.
Kassouf is terribly annoying we can all agree, but he did NOTHING WRONG and for Benger to claim "verbal Abuse" is about as soyboy as someone can get. Kassouf didnt say anything negative, nothing condescending, and didnt call benger out of his name, there was ZERO VERBAL ABUSE!
The term "check your privilege" was pretty fking cringe. But Kassouf was getting nothing out of him, and hadn't been for the entire hand. Benger could have done a way better job of putting him in his place, but Kassouf should have been repremanded for that play. It was disrespectful.
Completely agree. Any ordinary person would get penalties if they acted out like him.... I guess there's a reason he's never invited to the biggest games
@@thetruth2599Lol. It’s not about cancel culture, snowflake. It’s about enforcing the rules equally. Go enter the main event and start calling people idiots every 10 seconds and see what happens when you’re not one of the most famous players to ever play the game.

@@Andreas-x4j Only one of those guys did anything wrong. The entire table agreed with Benger about him. Benger was just the first to call him out for it.
@@xposuregaming6084Seems like they're putting heavy emphasis on the importance of a lot of these hands in their rankings. A hand early in a tourney isn't going carry the same weight in their rankings .
#27 yeah Kassouf was annoying af but Benger reacting to it saying it was "verbal abuse" is just pathetic. If he had just kept his cool and kept not reacting to it, he'd have made the impression of a man and professional instead of a grown baby needing to retaliate.
#22 is the worst slow roll I have ever seen in my life. Dude leans back and puts his hands on his head, then makes a speech about doing some sight seeing and then starts counting chips and only then goes all in. WOW
It wasn't a slow roll. He just didn't realise that Jen's bet put him all in. Hence him saying "all-in" instead of "call". He thought he was raising and that Jen still had a decision to make
Absolutely love seeing #29 and that child getting eliminated. Especially after that awful clock call earlier in the tournament. Dude should use his winnings to pay his water bill and finally take a shower. Also always love Mike's comments on #30 "Show him the 3 8 offsuit or whatever.....10 4 baby!"
27:57 - 30:54 so refreshing to see young Hellmuth.. best part of the video. Also, 29:35 Hellmuth still wins if King shows up, but the commentator got it wrong.
@@adamb3629 no one who saw the rest of his time at that table would say that. Benger was completely justified in everything he said, and everyone else at the table agreed with him.
@@JivviKassouf was being extremely annoying and slow rolling for no reason (I think even if he knew he was against aces he may have considered the coin flip), but I don't think he said anything disparaging or mean that would qualify as abusive.
Yes! The Swartz hand!!!! "I don't do handshakes people!" So crazy I think they were down to 2 or 3 tables so its not too many BB poker... So any small set flopped in a raised pot is a double up... Getting a call with that flop is music to your ears... just not seeing sixes.... you'd think you'd be up against QQ or A-4 or A-5 diamonds...
Hellmuth says with "please dont have aces, i guess you have AQ, fold, i show ya thereafter" LITERALLY that he has AK. As he never lies, as we all know : )
Well Dragomir handled it perfectly. "I'm an idiot with a stack. You don't have a stack." Bam! Right back in your face, Hellmuth. No physical violence necessary. Physical violence is for timid little losers who can't win an argument intellectually.
Nice to see a pre-2003 hand even if it was Hellmuth! A solid choice overall. I honestly think Labat vs Manion vs Zhu could have gone higher. Same with Yockey vs Arieh but because of the game type I don't think a lot of people will understand it. I'm going to be a geek and try and name a lot of the 20. In my mind there are 12 locks: Moneymaker vs Farha bluff Moneymaker vs Ivey FT bubble Duhamel vs Affleck Duhamel vs Cheong (have we had this yet?) Sheikhan vs Matusow argument McKeehen vs Daniel Nguyen vs McBride “If you call it’s gonna be all over baby” Drinan vs Katz AA vs AA Seidel vs Chan 1988 “Chan the master” Ungar vs Strzemp final hand 1997 Straight Flush vs Quads Tran vs Alcober insane hand Possibles: Maybe Moneymaker final hand? Maybe Tuna Lund vs Matloubi Maybe Ferguson vs TJ Cloutier That’s 15. I’m missing 5…
A couple I can think of are Merson's quad Jack's VS set of aces in a bracelet event from 2015 and CJ Sands flopped straight flush VS flopped king high flush with a royal flush redraw in 2016's event #1
#23 is worse than any hold ‘em bad beat. Worst bad beat in NLHE would be needing precisely two cards runner runner, like A7 vs AK on a K82 board with one 7 in the muck. This bad beat was much worse. Arieh MUST break and draw from AQ653 to PRECISELY 65432 first, just in order to THEN be in position to exchange the 6 for 7 to win.
Honestly he said what everyone is thinking. He's not soft tbh. Kassouf is an a hole. =/ it's not funny or fun. Kassouf had been talking for minutes, not getting anything. The difference between him and even Jaime Gold is Gold had fun with his talking genuinely and wasn't antagonistic. Once you get antagonistic in poker you need to stop talking.
In deuce to seven, the best possible hand is 2 3 4 5 7. Aces are high, as are straights and flushes. Each player gets up to 3 draws to improve their hand.
@@CrazeeAdam absolute bull! Kassouf is terribly annoying we can all agree, but he did NOTHING WRONG and for Benger to claim "verbal Abuse" is about as soyboy as someone can get. Im certain everyone doesnt think like Benger. Kassouf didnt say anything negative, nothing condescending, and didnt call benger out of his name, there was ZERO VERBAL ABUSE! Y'all that think so are literally soft as tissue paper.
@@agoo7581 I'm an old school retired Marine combat veteran. I have EVERY RIGHT to call YOU or anyone else I feel like it SOFT. Go cry to your HR department soyboy
Hand 28 - The way Solomon looked at his cards preflop is odd...maybe that is what exposed the Ah??? If the commentator and Hellmuth would of shut up we could of heard Jack explain! Unless someone remembers? Such an interesting hand.
It's a television production. The dealer doesn't decide when to deal the cards. It's dictated to the dealer by someone with production or a tournament director.
What cracks me up more than anything whenever I watch these WSOP videos is when Phil Helmuth loses his tempers and goes "off script". Seeing Helmuth lose his cool is always the highlight of these tournaments. Love ya Phil!!!
@@Aunini If you had any ability to perceive reality, you would notice that Benger's tone and the substance of what he was saying changed immediately after Kassouf put his stack in.
#23 is fascinating.. I remember when this happened, I was obsessed with duece to seven for a while after that.. and Nick's reaction is legend. "I swear on my mother's life" ... "I was just kidding around" .. Epic hand and a sick beat.
Hellmuth should know he was trying to crack a big hand with the 10/4 diamonds. I like him but the guy was absolutely right about it being his 10k buy in to wager as he wishes.
I don't understand why everyone is dunking on Phil in hand #30? He got the guy to put his money in with garbage, then folded when he was beat. He flips top pair like he had a pure bluff.
When this first came out I know that the number one hand will be 2003 ME moneymaker knocking out Ivey in 10th and moneymaker knocking out sammy to win it those will be top 2.
@@gynandroidhead okay wrong hand # but I was right about the slow play accusation. I'm surprised they left that out, since a few hands on the list are included only because of drama like that
Schwartz acting like he's an elite poker player when he limped into a pot late in the biggest tournament around and made like a 12x jam with the third nuts when he clearly won't get called by worse. Literally every action was awful.
42:30 why did Zhu's KK have a 0% chance, vs 2% for the other KK hand? I think they're looking for a akqj109 straight. Or I guess a flush? or a counterfeited 4 of a kind, full house, straight?
for 42:30 you can't get king trips because all the kings are accounted for (2 in one player's hand, 2 in the other player). i don't understand much beyond that though

And such a classy return.
You know youre out of line when Matusow is the calm and rational one.
I've played with him; quite true.
Matusow laughed at Hellmuths surface level schoolyard insult when he knew better than to reinforce that behavior

The absolute irony of Schwartz calling someone digusting when he looks like he takes monthly showers will never not be funny
Monthly is generous. I was thinking ....maybe... yearly
Schwartz may have set the record for the deepest Main Event run by a current heroin attic or former meth head. 😂
I wonder if they had to incinerate the chair he was sitting in.

#23 is worse than any hold ‘em bad beat. Worst bad beat in NLHE would be needing precisely two cards runner runner, like A7 vs AK on a K82 board with one 7 in the muck. This bad beat was much worse.
Arieh MUST break and draw from AQ653 to PRECISELY 65432 first, just in order to THEN be in position to exchange the 6 for 7 to win.
Benger is so soft
Honestly he said what everyone is thinking. He's not soft tbh. Kassouf is an a hole. =/ it's not funny or fun. Kassouf had been talking for minutes, not getting anything. The difference between him and even Jaime Gold is Gold had fun with his talking genuinely and wasn't antagonistic. Once you get antagonistic in poker you need to stop talking.
In deuce to seven, the best possible hand is 2 3 4 5 7. Aces are high, as are straights and flushes. Each player gets up to 3 draws to improve their hand.
Wrong reply
@@CrazeeAdam absolute bull! Kassouf is terribly annoying we can all agree, but he did NOTHING WRONG and for Benger to claim "verbal Abuse" is about as soyboy as someone can get. Im certain everyone doesnt think like Benger. Kassouf didnt say anything negative, nothing condescending, and didnt call benger out of his name, there was ZERO VERBAL ABUSE! Y'all that think so are literally soft as tissue paper.
@@agoo7581 I'm an old school retired Marine combat veteran. I have EVERY RIGHT to call YOU or anyone else I feel like it SOFT. Go cry to your HR department soyboy
Did shwartz show up from living under a bridge?
He got his buy in from charging people to cross it.
Crazy that at some point Phil was considered aggressive
#21 is the only time I would probably fold king pre
how does a homeless person enter the main event? ask justin shwartz
had to research 2-7 draw but #23 was brutal
Hand 28 - The way Solomon looked at his cards preflop is odd...maybe that is what exposed the Ah??? If the commentator and Hellmuth would of shut up we could of heard Jack explain! Unless someone remembers? Such an interesting hand.
Doug Polk did a video about it, he actually turned the Ace towards the dealer so even they could see it lol
#27 the fact the dealer took so long to deal the flop and let them argue is a bit ridiculous.
Scripted for tv time!
It's a television production. The dealer doesn't decide when to deal the cards. It's dictated to the dealer by someone with production or a tournament director.
34:13 Weird how the dealer pushed his discard back to him.
That QQ lay down early was solid.
What cracks me up more than anything whenever I watch these WSOP videos is when Phil Helmuth loses his tempers and goes "off script". Seeing Helmuth lose his cool is always the highlight of these tournaments. Love ya Phil!!!
This is why I love the way Tony G treats Phil.
I love that dragomir took his hat off to explain to Phil he can blow away his 10k any way he sees fit lol
Benger and Friedman, the ultimate snowflakes
You're not smart enough to know that Benger was goading him. Which makes you not not not not not very smart.
@@aheroictaxidriver3180 wahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahaha
@@michadegraaf4570 GG, chat pro
@@aheroictaxidriver3180 then why continue after he shoved?
@@Aunini If you had any ability to perceive reality, you would notice that Benger's tone and the substance of what he was saying changed immediately after Kassouf put his stack in.
#23 is fascinating.. I remember when this happened, I was obsessed with duece to seven for a while after that.. and Nick's reaction is legend. "I swear on my mother's life" ... "I was just kidding around" .. Epic hand and a sick beat.
#27 makes me cringe every single time I watch it. Kassouf is entertaining, and Benger is the epitome of an annoying snowflake.
32:34 usually you’re pretty confident in a 99.843% win probability
Hellmuth should know he was trying to crack a big hand with the 10/4 diamonds. I like him but the guy was absolutely right about it being his 10k buy in to wager as he wishes.
"Check your privilege" lol I thought she was gonna cry
Can someone explain #30 to me? did the guy broke some type of etiquette? Did he played the hand „unprofessional“ or what was Helmuths Problem there😅
Niwinski vayo and Benger, the unholy trinity, all insufferable. Was brilliant to watch qui Nguyen smoke Gordon heads up
Anyone see how was Salomon's card was exposed?
He kind of turned them over himself, he risked exposing both cards. Probably should've been forced to turn both over
Finally i watch phil hemuth won. Im new to poker i only watch cut youtube video.
JUSTIN SCHWARTZ probably one of the most disgusting players I have seen in poker.
Schwartz in #29 looked like he’d been at the table for 5 days straight.
AA vs. KK vs. KK is only #21 the Top 20 better live up to the hype.
We tried
Oh, that wheelie Nelson took out second best. I love low ball.
“Verbal abuse”… So douchy…
"A-K vs 10-4, a classic match up" lol
I don't understand why everyone is dunking on Phil in hand #30? He got the guy to put his money in with garbage, then folded when he was beat. He flips top pair like he had a pure bluff.
"You're way out of line" is rich coming from Mike Matusow of all people 😂.
I remember "For you it's poker, for me it's my life" was the moment I started disliking Phil h
When this first came out I know that the number one hand will be 2003 ME moneymaker knocking out Ivey in 10th and moneymaker knocking out sammy to win it those will be top 2.
I think Moneymaker’s bluff heads up against Sammy will top both of those.
@@Rainmaker205 no it won't but your right it should be down there got to be the most ironic bluff of all time.
Schwartz calling Someone Else a "Disgusting Human Being" is Ridiculous!
Hand #22 If i recall correctly, didn't Harman take issue with Zeidman, accusing him of alow rolling her pretty badly
And she was in the right, it was a sick slow roll
For accuracy, it was hand 22 and YES she did.
@@gynandroidhead okay wrong hand # but I was right about the slow play accusation. I'm surprised they left that out, since a few hands on the list are included only because of drama like that
Griffin Benger projecting himself calling Kassouf miserable
Schwartz acting like he's an elite poker player when he limped into a pot late in the biggest tournament around and made like a 12x jam with the third nuts when he clearly won't get called by worse. Literally every action was awful.
I've grown up in Canada and I can tell you for certain no one outside of Toronto calls it by any of those namees
If the river for #28 was the jack of clubs, that may have been the best hand ever.
42:30 why did Zhu's KK have a 0% chance, vs 2% for the other KK hand?
I think they're looking for a akqj109 straight. Or I guess a flush?
or a counterfeited 4 of a kind, full house, straight?
same question here. surely king trips would've beat the guys pocket aces.
for 42:30 you can't get king trips because all the kings are accounted for (2 in one player's hand, 2 in the other player). i don't understand much beyond that though
Hellmuth, the guy everyone wants to lose... and Kassouf!
Schwartz wearing a "Malibu" hoodie is hilarious. That city wouldn't allow him to enter the border
hellmuth is such a baby. I love it
Does anyone know why Benger was hesitating to call with ace's in number 27? That shoulda been a shove knowing he had Kassouf covered.
Because he is restarded
I don’t understand #23 at all…. Never played that version before… can anyone explain?
Worst Hand win, Yockey held sec nuts Arieh get absolute nuts at the end
Dragomir ❤🎉 Well done.
