He would have so much egg on his face if he called and Durr flipped over a middle pair or J10 turned into a bluff though. I think that’s why he ended up deciding to fold.
Galfond is like a super computer brain.He would know that making that call he will lose maybe more than he wins and since he is so profitable anyway it doesnt matter just a bad river.
How much of his opponent’s stack did he win? Very little. The first two are not great bluffs. The object is to make your *opponents* chips your chips. Merely winning back your own chips is not a great play.

I swear toms excuse at the end of the hand when he finally breathes is one of a kind classic 😂😂😂😂😂😂 It's something with the lights😂 Every time I rewatch this i almost die. 😂😆😅🤦
And don't forget Greenstein folded aces too. I think that was the best bluff because it got past two completely different high level pro's (at the time) who approach the game differently.
I was going to mention that hand in the comments. Criminal that it didn't make into this video with that title, and IMO one of the best things about the hand was when Durr pointed at Eastgate, saying he had the best hand the whole time. He truly knew where everybody was in that hand the entire way.
Only a good bluff because it worked against that particular opponent. When you really think about the way the hand played out, there aren’t many value holdings he’s making this kind of bet with.
I could listen to Antonio's reaction to that sick bluff by Bill Klein, all day lol. Want a treat? 8:53. Lol, classic stuff. And to his credit, Phil Galfond took it like a champ.
This compilations are really nice. I know people don't like that you taken episodes from yt but i understand it, it was there a long time in great quality. And with adding gabe and aj for season 8 i gotta say i really become a fan of pokergo, you people are smart, and it's good that poker have a company that really want to take tv poker or whatever you call it to the next level. Goodluck with new season i hope to become subscriber next year if thing workout how i expect for me in private life
9:14 why is the 9 so important on the flop that doyle and bill referenced? I know he's repping poc. 9s but why couldn't Phil have the 9s based on his bets...is it because the 10 in his hand blocks the 10-9 combos so he can represent the 9s? Wish I had half the knowledge and experience Doyle has.
@@plexsm1425 I hope ur joking cuz that comment makes you sound like an idiot. KJ is never a hand you want to be getting it in with preflop because you are almost always behind
4:22 I never noticed, Phil actually shows Barry his hand he bluffed Lex with. You can also see this smug smile on Barrys face and how Phil gives that look
He was saying since Booth bet cash, Ivey won't have to wait at the cage to cash out chips afterwards. It is an innocent joke which has no bearing on the hand. So it is fine, other than the basic rule of be quiet so people can think. It's not like Matusow who announces what cards he folded during live hands.
agree such an easy lineup for him to get it in against a range that looks like sets or pair+flush draw for entire stack when he can take people to school in many situations
@@richardramos4468 Exactly. Kaplan says Booth thinking Ivey "can't call with QQ, KK, AA," but actually AA is such a likely holding for Booth there. Much more likely to shove AA than a set.
It's a cash game. If Ivey thought he was ahead, he would have called. It's not like he can't rebuy or there are any ICM considerations to take into account. Your comment would only apply if this was a tournament.
@@twown You sure about that? Booth only called preflop raise, and Brad is HYPER aggressive. I think its much more likely he had a small pocket pair preflop, and hit the set. I dont think Ivey was worried about aces at all.
Greenstein was always kinda cheap but when he wents for bluffs he did it in style he always risk a lot and i can't really remember being call. He was good at this games
@@rafalles1726 not true, it’s easy to say this when you see how the hand ends but it’s good to call with your best draws in that spot. Lower flush draws are much better semi bluffs. Also, Durrr’s bluff is absolutely standard. He has all the nutted combos in his range: TT, QQ, KK, AJ. The flush draw also misses and Dwan doesn’t have diamonds so he doesn’t block many hands that Ivey should fold to a river bet. What’s fascinating to me is Ivey actually contemplating making that call.
The bluff Durr makes which gets Barry to fold AA and that other kid whose name escapes me with the trips 2's was by far the best bluff and its not even in the video
the kids name is Peter Eastgate..i remember watchin that and Gabe Kaplan sayin "only other person I know that would make that move is the late Stu Unger"...definetly shouldve been in the vid
Agreed. That’s probably the most brilliant play I’ve ever seen. It’s one of those hands where it seems idiotic at first … Then, after it works, you realize everything Dwan was thinking. Dwan knew what everyone had, and he knew exactly how they would react.
There were prop bets on the side for different cards to show on the flop. Not sure of his exact prop bet but he may win money if he wins a pot with a 9. Or he might have raised pre to dissuade a 9 coming out. Don’t know exact rationale but it was prop bet related
It’s one of those spots where you know that the other guy is probably bluffing, but you just have to fold. It even looked like-that’s exactly what Ivey was thinking. Ivey was a facing a *huge* overbet-shove, and in that spot-the other guy is usually either going to have a big draw, or a set … So, Ivey’s getting a terrible price, against a range that has a TON of equity against KK. Ivey made the right decision. Booth actually made a pretty bad play, and he was just fortunate that it didn’t cost him.
4:14 - in these types of hands I always like to imagine that there *would* be a flop, and that the player with the lowest cards would've flopped a full house or something. I don't know why. A bit of comfort just for me? Haha.
klein bluffing with missed spades on a board where you need to use paired hands to bluff representing a fullhouse is very scary..the funny thing is the fact that theres zero bluffs in galfonds raises on the turn king when hes playing against amateur in 3 way pot so the river bluff by klein is targetting a straight pretty effectively when the board pairs and leading 150k into him even when hes blocking the very hand hes targetting..blockers and looking for being balanced with bluffs in all spots quickly makes no sense anymore when you face situations with zero bluffing range
but also if Klein is balanced there, which we should guess he was the only possible hands he could have at that point was either full house with deuces, nines or J/9 or a missed flush draw, cause it's the only hands that can raise the flop and bet/call the turn, so Galfond knows his straight is just a bluff catcher at that point

All theese years later, i’m still hoping Phil will call 😅
its elezras fault
same here, big ivey fan here
He came so close , lol
I was hoping ivey called but ivey made the right call by laying it down durr executed that bluff beautifully
He would have so much egg on his face if he called and Durr flipped over a middle pair or J10 turned into a bluff though. I think that’s why he ended up deciding to fold.
Dwan bluff on Ivey was the one of the greatest and daring bluffs in poker history.
Hearing Norm Macdonald broadcast just made my day
I opened the comments to confirm right when I heard him!
Yo I thought I was trippin 😂
Phil Galfond is such a nice guy, took the bluff so well
Hes got tons of cash.. hes just playing for fun. To him this is like playing a penny ante.
That’s called being loaded.
I don’t think anyone in the poker world has a single bad thing to say about the guy. That’s pretty rare these days
Galfond is like a super computer brain.He would know that making that call he will lose maybe more than he wins and since he is so profitable anyway it doesnt matter just a bad river.
I noticed that too. That was a classy move.
To see Dwan's face if Ivey called that A6 hand would have been so amazing
Nice hand (lilting voice, eye roll.)
Better if he showed the bluff and see iveys face
The"Super Hero "Call! Oh well...
Dwan always gets Ivey. Yet here he was blushed and easier to call
Ivey is something else jamming with 5 2
How much of his opponent’s stack did he win? Very little.
The first two are not great bluffs. The object is to make your *opponents* chips your chips. Merely winning back your own chips is not a great play.

One of the deepest needles of all time, and prolly nobody even realizes.
Gabe: And Iveys just posturing here. Doesn't want barry to know he raised him with air.
Phil Ivey: I'm all in.
anytime Dwan and Ivey are heads up, everyone stops talking.
Its much more of ivey effect than dwan-ivey hu effect. Phil takes no jokes on the table while in a game.
I mean its kinda etiquette to not speak when you're not in the hand
“The excitement is overwhelming for Eli” lol Kaplin is hilarious
I swear toms excuse at the end of the hand when he finally breathes is one of a kind classic 😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's something with the lights😂
Every time I rewatch this i almost die. 😂😆😅🤦
shoutout to the quality of these old clips even with 60 fps
That Klein bluff, sooo good
Yooooo
Durrrs bluff against Peter Eastgates trips was the best bluff of them all. I can even say that was the best bluff I've ever seen in my life.
And don't forget Greenstein folded aces too. I think that was the best bluff because it got past two completely different high level pro's (at the time) who approach the game differently.

The only player on earth to thank about that hand is Phil Ivey … What a legend!!!
This is so good. Can not believe it has been ten years already
99.999% folded after a minute or two. Phil is the legend not folding it within few minutes.
Lex: " i thought u was only angry at Barry" Ivey: i am! 😆
I was in prison during the tom dwan run.... Watched every show and rerun for 7 yrs... Loved this show.
How is anyone hating on dwan? Hes a legend
Mr. Klein is the man! Amazing bluff there with the busted flush!
Antonio did a great job for Klein in that hand
Nah the other guy was just so bad
@@youtabalization ya Phil galfond is so bad.... smh u fish

Eh, there's some good play in these shows but there's also A LOT of bad plays.
Galfond reaction to Kleins bluff is priceless
How is Dwan’s Q10 bluff into Eastgate and Greenstein not in this video? Best bluff on HSP
Great read by Lex and even better read by the great Phil Ivey
Not really. Why do that with any major premium. Ivey figured suited/unsuited 1 gapper for 150k more wasn't worth it. Got lucky
Bill Klein has to be one of my all time favorite players! Never afraid to put his money in!
That's why Phil Ivey is the best re-raising Lex all in with 5-2. So sick!!

id love 2 talk to phil galfond about that Q T hand .
Still can’t believe Ivey folded kings to Booth. If Booth flips over a set there then nice play by him but I’m stunned Ivey laid down the kings.
The one guy wouldn’t shut his mouth. Bet Ivey would have called if that dude wasn’t blabbing.
It’s one of those spots where you know that the other guy is probably bluffing, but you just have to fold. It even looked like-that’s exactly what Ivey was thinking.
Ivey was a facing a *huge* overbet-shove, and in that spot-the other guy is usually either going to have a big draw, or a set …
So, Ivey’s getting a terrible price, against a range that has a TON of equity against KK.
Ivey made the right decision.
Booth actually made a pretty bad play, and he was just fortunate that it didn’t cost him.
Almost all were bluffing three of a kind there. It actually is a sweet spot.
I can't believe the fold from Ivey with KK, it's incredible he thought he had something, old times I guess
Surprised he folded knowing hes a multi millionaire with a nice piece of Full Tilt at that time.
@4:05 thats an easy all in for Phil Ivey he had his opponent chips covered by 10x , its a heads up so better believed it

Really wish Antonio had the A6 of diamonds in this spot against durrr
Every bluff's biggest tell is the multiple blinks of the eyes. The main clue of any liar.
