Love the black out so we can play from hero’s perspective. It’s so hard to remove all bias when you can see the hands

Bart: "Phil Ivey's looking a bit disinterested and keeps walking away to check his phone" Also Bart: "So, they're playing with half a million dollar effective stacks"

What made him legendary was his drive, his focus on winning, not his gto or technical play... he became rich and lost his drive... Still doesn't change the fact he's one of the best players that ever lived

Yes, more blacked out hands please! Thanks for another great video Bart

The over bet by Andy works great vs recreational players but not vs pros. And Ivey is well on his way to being an OMC.

Lol 30 minutes of Bart roasting Phil Ivey, love it

Yes Bart I like the blacked out hands, I definitely get more decisions wrong when I can't see the other players hole cards

thanks for putting this together, Bart. Appreciate all your talking, commentary and CLP discourse. I don't have anyone credible to talk poker with so it's nice to have you crystalize a lot of thoughts, feelings, ideas that I share and new ones as well.

I love the blackout like most, my only wish is for hustlers to actually let the chat vote for a player and we can do it for a few of their hands, also what would be even betterr if every player had a seperate stream with the cards blacked out so we could watch whoever we wanted ! thanks bart good analysis !

Great fold by Ivey. Recognized the situation and had the discipline to lay it down. Andy made that bet because he is thinking exactly like you are Bart. Ivey is just a level ahead.

Sounds like Ivey needs to take Bart’s poker course to plug some leaks in his game. LMAO.

Been bored w HLC lately, will tune in to see Bart play tho

Ivy so good with the overbets on the river, love to see it.

Looking sharp, Bart. Nice shirt and you got your hair looking good as well. Top job.

Everyone thinks he bluffs, but Ivey was ahead of his time back in the day with his laydowns.

I think the reason Phil raised Eric on the river is because back door flushes are rare. And with those last 3 hearts the size of Eric's bet is suspicius. It's like he's trying to rep a flush rather than actually having one. And when do people do that? When they're weak. Any normal marginal hand would either check or bet small so he thinks a raise might actually get a fold.

I appreciate this channel, Its a must watch for me. Great work👍👍

Ivey donked off his chips lol

Maybe Phil raised with flush playing on his image he established that play vs Eric.

Great vid. Deffo keen to see more player breakdowns

Great video. Not afraid of speaking the truth.

since phil is clearly playing a massively exploitative style, very often making big deviations because of his reads and assumptions about his villain’s ranges, I think it would have been interesting to explore the assumptions he’d be making to justify his plays. For example, in folding the AK on turned As, he is likely thinking that Andy is so value-heavy when he snap bets 150%, so it would have been interesting here to explore what Phil likely believes Andy’s range is, and what degree of accuracy he needs to make this fold. Seems like one for a node-locking analysis

its weird sometimes i swear old school goats like Ivey dont really care that much anymore. they played so much and won so much. but unlike in regular sports where age forces you into retirement here you can go on forever and its difficult to find new goals

save u guys 20 min, bart says ivey sucks at poker

Love the blackouts

Wow Phil Ivy try to bluff n raised $110. With his AQ SOADE TO J HEARTS

Did you say front door hearts ?

Love this video. Bart please do more this.

Ive cool when you black out the hands. Makes it more entetainting

I have a Tight image at the room I play at. I love to play lean into it. I will play a few hands Incredibly face up. But I ALWAYS try a few Large Bluffs and a lot of small ones. I never show, and rarely get called. There are a few players that have caught on.

Bart so break down what you think think of these stats, not just of Phil but of the better players in general. Garrett I think was around 40%...is this just a function of trying to create action/excitement on stream or having such a large edge post? I couldn't imagine VPIP- ing over even 30% but not only is GMan and others doing it, they're winning.

The flush over flush hand - I think I disagree with your analysis that Ivey should not be raising the river. How often does he get to that spot with air and we all think "Ryusuke's never folding a straight, 2 pair, or set . Ivey should just give up."? Doesn't that mean it's a raise? I think Ivey can absolutely get called by worse hands. He can also get called by better, which sucks for him. But you have to value own yourself sometimes, or you're just not raising enough imo. Yes, Ryusuke is not the loosest player. He did have a high VPIP but didn't seem like a blaster. So, his river lead shows more strength than others. But Ivey also has years worth of aggressive advertising that should open up Ryusuke's bet-call range. JMHO

Phil’s history on this show is that when I gets in a hand and he gets torched pretty much like vs gal with the aces

It’s almost as if TAG stats go hand in hand with making one’s living in poker for 25 years.

Compelling analysis as always

in the second hand not sure the 7 is such a brick, as ryusuke can potentially now hold all the two pairs as well as pocket 7s. same argument can be made for a 2 brick but he’s less likely to have K2o, 92o than K7o and 97o

I used to watch and admire Phil Ivey play in HSP growing up but I gotta admit he played pretty badly over here. He was just a shadow of his former self. Perhaps the stakes could be too small for him.

the orginal G.O.A.T. of poker is Doyle Brunson, son

black out is the greatest format. like. like. like

Really cool type of content

Bart about to hit Hakkasan after this episode lol

I agree with a lot of what Bart says regarding Ivey's play except at 23:30, I think this was a brilliant fold by Ivey. Bart felt he should at least continue one more street. But why? He says "This is a pretty standard call". And I agree, for a mediocre player it 's a standard call. But Andy is overbetting the pot for a reason. He knows that Ivey likely hit an Ace and Ivey's aware he knows this. So then why is he betting so large? Obviously because he has the flush and is hoping to rope Ivey in. What is the point of calling the turn and then just folding the river? If Andy has the flush he's drawing dead. Is Andy really ever doing this as a bluff? Given the likelihood of Ivey continuing I think that probability is pretty low.

I agree with a lot of this analysis and think, honestly, Bart would have played the hands better than Ivey did. However I do disagree with his comments on Phil's fold. That's a GREAT fold. I understand solver's are going to want to call that A on the turn you are at the top of your range and flushes are rare. But what you have to consider is WHY is your opponent leading out for this amount (over betting the pot?). When a hand like AK is such a big part of IVey's range (Any strong A). What does it accomplish? If it were some other small spade then he could be bluffing the flush as it's easier for Ivey to fold. But do you really want to rely on the ability of your opponent to make a disciplined fold? Andy's strong enough to know a fold would be hard for Ivey here so that size makes no sense unless he actually has the flush.

Looking sharp bro

Bart when is the Phil Ivey documentary going to be released?

Hey Bart how about a heads up match between you and Ivey. My money is on Ivey

Help me understand why Phil betting the turn in the 7♣️6♣️ hand is better than checking back. I feel I would be checking back there a lot.

Does bart get staked or fund himself?

Goddamn Bart where’d you get that shirt

Original 🐐and the only 🐐

I'm pretty sure Phil is still winning at the biggest nosebleed games today. I don't know how critical us alackadoos can be by picking out a tiny sample size from a streamed game and gleam much from it. We've seen Phil play like a nit. We've also seen him play crazy hands in other televised sessions. As you can see he's not afraid to give some crazy action once he's entered the hand so don't know why his play would get him disinvited to games...he lost $300k in these two sessions. How do we know he didn't play this way to balance out his actions, particularly since its televised for all his future opponents to see? There is also levelling to consider....he may know Persson's reputation and penchant to punt at any given time so took a stab at it there including that the hearts came back door so Persson wasn't likely to be playing a flush in that hand. If he plays textbook GTO then he's just going to be the same as any other GTO player in the poker world and why would he want to be ordinary?

MOAR card blackout hands!!

Good content. Good Analysis. Headed to Parx soon for free money.

Second like. Welcome back to NE Bart, hope to see you in Foxwoods sometime. Thanks for all the content!

where do I get the CLP merch? can't seem to find it anywhere

Good content!

u notice Bart keeps saying: this hand blublublu. did he really think Ivey make decisions mainly on his hole card like the callers on the show....?

Very very very very good video

I think that AK lay down was a good laydown, sets and flushes had Ivey drawing dead

make a hu vs ivey

GOOD LUCK TONIGHT KING

Bart, how about we examine Marco Rubio and Donald Trumps hands next.

Ivey admittingly has transformed his life. He is proud to finally be boring he said. Lost a marriage, lost borgata case. Missing wsop few times. He is a sports gambling addict and with the postle stuff and now silly robby stuff. The sports gamblers that play poker will not play until the sports games are over.

Why only losing hands? Did he win any hands?

I love crush live. I hate editor spoiling everything in beginning of the video

Blackouts are interesting

I think Phil might have been looking to bluff with the 6c7c. He already got caught, so maybe told himself he'd get more credit. Just the wrong table for all that. The plays looked dumb to us, sure. Maybe they just were, who knows.

Bart where are you based out of? You must have said it a million times and I just never caught it

Yo what’s that jacket?

How much u think wpt paid him??

Review mikkis pocket 10s hand ;)

I'm not the best at analyzing hands but I can confidently say that Phil has 10 fingers

What was that raise on the river?? It looks as he just learned to play poker!

Eric was also open ended.

Thought stu unger was the original goat

Bart, what the fook are you wearing? Looks comfy af to be honest

Barts shirt doe

Ivey Ivey ivey

Hart Banson

Isn’t Stu Unger the OG GOAT??

"Like" for blackout

Even though Phil has a charmed life, he doesn’t seem to ever be happy or enjoying himself

Phil messed up trying to bluff an amateur. Not trying to bluff donks will save you tons. Perssons isn't a thinking player. He's all emo all the time.

The "if you call turn with a medium hand and then river bricks you HAVE to call again" is illogical and can be easily exploited as V can just never bluff and value bet relentlessly.

Amazing to me that pros still try to bluff Person, who by everything I see , Is a gianoroumous calling station.

Good luck 🍀 today

Yah, not Phil's finest work. With the 7 high flush hand I can't imagine what hand he beats that's calling his river raise.

So the way to beat Phil Ivey is to make a flush

with the andy hand, he donking the turn is such a bad play, I would check raise all day and oarts point about weak Ax folding or being scared out is pointless as those hand would just x river so you get more value by x raising.

content idea: black out Monday’s

Pro with a fake bump trying to get a read on AK hand. I think it’s a borderline angle shooter.

That first hand I think ivey is bored and just wanted to feel something so he bluffed the river. No real strategy there.

Shouldve couldve, wouldv'e is easy when you can see both players cards

Want to like the video but it's at a Magic number of likes so I'll leave a comment instead 🤣

You might not know anything about preflop but you know how to dress Bart!

value overbets are becoming quite predictable

The Original GOAT??? Who is the GOAT now? I doubt they have anything on Phil Ivey.

Do you hate Phil Ivey?

Even at double speed this was painfully slow.

Ivey seems like he could not care less about being there which is a bummer.
