The echoes of the Garrett Adelstein vs. Robbi Jade Lew scandal on Hustler Casino Live can still be heard in the poker world. Well, once again, accusations of cheating erupted live on stream as GT's pocket rockets were crushed by Luda Chris' ludicrous play!
When playing super deep stacked poker, some of the best preflop hands to bluff with are suited connectors and suited gappers because when you do happen to flop a strong hand, you are likely to get paid off, and when you don’t, you can often represent the high cards like aces or kings.
Luda Chris is introduced as a long time regular on the show who plays up to $200/$400. The commentator mentions during the player introductions that Luda Chris’ favorite hand is K3, and “any other hand you could possibly put together”.
GT is introduced as a tech guy from San Francisco who loves to gamble. He often flies in to play on the Hustler Casino Live stream and is part of the Hustler family.
Hustler Casino Live is a full-scale, high-value poker production. Close to a million dollars was spent transforming the casino’s high-limit poker room, the Crystal Room, into the set of this new state-of-the-art live show. Hustler Casino Live looks more like coverage of a TV broadcast sporting event and appeals to those beyond the poker community. Unscripted and unedited, they host regular poker streams such as ‘Max Pain Monday’ and ‘Thirsty Thursday’. Some of the most notable poker players to have appeared on the show are Phil Ivey ‘The Tiger Woods of Poker’, Tom Dwan ’durrrr’, Phil Hellmuth ‘The Poker Brat’, Chris Moneymaker, Doug Polk ‘WCGRider, Garrett Adelstein ‘Gman’, Tony Guoga ‘Tony G’ and many more.
In the ante game, all players post $25 as an ante, but the player on the button posts $50. The action starts to the left of the button (small blind), and players need to cover the $50 ante to enter the pot.
🔍 Pre-Flop Drama:
The ante game action kicks off from the small blind, where Mike X calls the extra $25 with his J3 of clubs. Luda Chris in the big blind follows suit with 86 of hearts, prompting calls from Dr. H. under the gun with 97 of clubs and from Jboogs under the gun +1 with 54o. GT in the lojack then bumps up the price of poker by raising it to $1,000 with pocket aces. Francisco, sitting in the hijack with pocket tens, decides to call. Mike X also calls before Luda Chris makes a surprising limp re-raise to $6,000. Dr. H. and Jboogs fold, but GT 4-bets to $19,000. Francisco and Mike X fold, but Luda Chris, undeterred, calls to see a flop heads-up with GT.
💸 Flop - Ks 8d 8c
After Luda Chris hits trips on this dream flop he decides to check, allowing GT to fire out a small bet of $15,000 with his overpair. Luda Chris sets the trap and decides to just call as they both head to the turn.
💣 Turn - Jd
The turn J of diamonds brings a potential backdoor flush draw. Once again, Luda Chris checks to the aggressor. GT might be suspicious that he is beat here as he opts to check back.
🌊 River - 7s
After the 7 of spades completes the board. Luda Chris, with trips, decides he wants to take over the betting lead in the hand and become the aggressor. He slides all his chips across the line and announces “all-in” for $32,225. GT doesn’t like this half pot-sized bet. But what will he do with aces - call or fold? What he does next and what he says after will throw you out of your seat! Listen closely to this entire poker video to find out!

Do YOU think Luda Chris cheated or not? 🤯

@RoCkShaDoWWaLkEr 5 ай бұрын

You can't look at cheating allegations against Luda by just watching this hand (even though calling off a third of his stack with 86s out of position for so much money is definitely sus imo). Luda has a history of cheating allegations against him and was kicked off LATB because of the allegations. Ryan Feldman is Luda's ex room mate and very good friend, he was also part of production at LATB and is at HCL. There's very long and detailed Reddit threads about allegations against Luda and Feldman that you have to take into account when talking about this topic. Garret has even called them out over this.

I don't think he did, but I'm curious how GT can be so sure, and if he's sure, how exactly did he cheat? He mentions a watch beeping. Are there examples of this being used in the past? Saying someone cheated, and mentioning a mysterious watch beeping seems illogical and more of a sign that he's on tilt more than anything else. Getting your Aces cracked on the flop is a tough spot but I've never heard anyone accusing someone of cheating because of it. Seems like a low brow move from this guy, then he goes into himself being persecuted, sad. Time to take a break if this is how you act on live TV.

As for whether Luda was cheating, I haven't watched a lot of his play, but from what little I know about him, he likes to play very crazy, or "ludicrously", so no, I don't think he was cheating.

That said, JL always gives great analysis, but the idea that 86s is okay "because they are deep" makes no sense here. It's not about the number of BB they started with. GT made it 19k preflop and Luda has 60k left. He's going to the flop *out of position* with just over 1 SPR. How is even 67s or 87s supposed to realize here?

He will not want to return and there is no way he will be invited back. So everyone gets what they want in the end. If the guy knew what you had, he probably would have shoved the turn to avoid scaring you off with a King, or a diamond on the river. He also accused the casino of cheating. If this was a home game, he might have a point. A casino however is highly unlikely to want to bust someone early when they can keep everyone at the table a rack up more tips and rake. If they were colluding, they would have done it much later in the session and they certainly wouldn't have done it during a streamed game where everything can be meticulously reviewed by all the players who potentially would play there. Short term gain for long term losses makes zero sense. No matter how he tries to spin it, his reasoning makes zero sense.

Once i also thought poker was set up against me after a bad run that hasnt happened in 10 years of game, but what GT is doing is really acusing not Luda Chris but Hustler's and its potential connections with Luda to set up hands, i think he's just running very bad and having a very very unlucky situations that led to that assumptions

@Declarationofyourgeneration 4 ай бұрын

The more suspicious thing is Nick walking off stream the next time Luda played and he made a very loose call when usually a nit. Now I am not saying Luda cheated the last time he was on the show. I am saying I suspect many of these players just share the winnings later off stream and it is a show for certain players. Which of this is the case sorta makes the game less to me. I don’t have any evidence this happens later.

I played a live tournament last night, blinds were 100/200. I had AA. 1st to act raises to 1,500 (I immediately know they have AK, KK, or QQ based on the player). I raise to 5,000. Another player behind calls. 1st to act goes all in, I go all in, and the last guy who called the 5K looks me dead in the eyes and calls the all in. I was right on 1st to act, he had QQ. The other opponent called with Q8 suited!!!! Dumbest call ever, but for some reason I knew the dumb caller was going to win. I wasn't afraid of a Q coming out since 3 were accounted for, and of course the turn/river were both 8s. Thankfully Q8 was small stacked - which is probably why he shipped it - but still, this type of play does happen. Some people just like to gamble

I have no idea who Luda Chris is and i'm just a micro stakes regular. If player calls big 4bet with a 86s out of position, he is not just a fish, he is a fat golden goose everyone would be happy to play with. He plays every second hand and bluffs every third one. But if Luda Chris is a competent player, i could believe that something was wrong with a dealer.

Luda doesn’t have a very good poker face. It’s easy to tell he has something good when he says “around 30” at the end. It’s the same as saying “it’s just 30 k more” like hey may as well pay it off.

We've all has bad beats like that. The villain calls your huge raise with nothing and goes runner, runner to win against our premium holding. It is likely, no. Does it happen? All the time. It sucks, but feel better knowing those players dont last long in this game. Also, how could he be cheating? If he had access to your whole cards he would have folded preflop. On the flop with trips everyone sticks around. He only loses against pocket kings. Zero chance of cheating here. Props to Luda for keeping cool after the cheating accusation. I would have had words with the accuser. Imagine what that does to his reputation on a livestream. I'd have stood up for myself and made it known it wasn't cheating.

I’ve seen a hand where Luda Chris called down his entire stack of 60+k with fucking Queen high by the river against a very strong range/hand. So this isn’t out of character for him at all to call a third of his stack with 8 high pre. He is called Ludicrous for a reason 😂 If you can’t take a bad beat, probably shouldn’t play poker. Thing is, GT would’ve been perfectly happy and probably needled Luda for the call had his aces held up. Completely out of line from GT.. demeanour of players like that is obvious when they have a premium pair pre, the hands on the mouth aren’t fooling anyone when the player is incapable of constructing a 4-bet range that doesn’t contain premiums. Therefore, Luda is more than justified to make the call with a suited one gapper because you will get paid.
