Thats one of the things that grabbed me when i first saw it televised, a very cool place to be.

I never thought about it as a home game, but a private room with closed doors reserved for select players. But yeah, the new format is so bland and unappealing.

@@alleycatgames6583 q

They need to go back to this same exact setting like they did a decade ago. This new futuristic bland setting is not the same. Can you imagine Sam Farha with his unlit cigar in this new setting? 😂

Yesssss. This or the really fancy poker rooms casinos had back in the day. I think it was the one ivey played in when he landed 1st or 2nd in the WSOP

Yep.

He staked Mike the buy in and knew he only had the one bullet and figured unless mike had the nuts he would never call so early in the show

Mike played that hand so terribly from beginning to end

2-7 challenge always brings weird moments .. the first 5 seasons of this show were legendary

@@Ballen81587 not really since he knew how hellmuth would have usually played jj, qq or aces from early position. Exactly like that

He actually played it so good.

😆

I think part of it..Negranue loves roasting him (as we saw throughout this entire video) so I think that was Matusow doing it straight back

Eli Elezra and Sammy Farha r such fkn legends.

Doyle is proud at least

Fucking amazing screen time

and he got fired fro this job. Shows what GSN knew about gaming

D Negs for me.

Yes he is but some of his calls on hands are woeful. Why did Matusow have to raise on the turn with KK against Hellmuth? Strange take.

He was the absolute greatest

So brutal

haha "I guess you didnt have the deuce 3 "

Even more hilarious because dwan had 98 off but had to inject himself into the moment

That´s true. Fortunately all the players who were cheated got their money back.

@@devonmiles758 the players that the gaming commission claimed were cheated*

@@conoroniel8717 you didnt lose cuz of cheaters you lost cuz you're a fish

This is such a sad story :'( poor Mike

That's partly correct

He's like hellmuth's brother, but entertaining never the less.

@@richard7645 Hellmuth is the GOAT.

Lol

Love that line 😄

No reason to go all in with 1010 at that spot , he made a reasonable call but still could have avoided thinking Mike has JJ or better as he limp 4-b pre representing AA or KK

@@user-yj4vr2ex4j He did that all 7 seasons & was the biggest losers on HSP, lost over 4.1 million. Other than the 66 full to Quad 55( Gus Hansen) hand , every other hand he lost was just laughable. He would play shit hands like 53hh , flop a straight & lose to top boat , flop straight with 109s, board pairs on turn , guy makes Quads & still calls his all in on river . Flops straight , Greenstein wife / girlfriend at that time makes higher straight on turn , calls her all in on river. He keeps complaining about flopping nuts 🥜 & losing. Flop doesn’t mean shit in poker , maybe against a pair like AA or KK , u flop straight , u might be a massive fav but against a lot of range , they still have outs. He would keep saying they have boats & still would end up calling. Only Gus Hansen hand isn’t avoidable , if he avoided all other hands , he would have been profitable. Other than that he would sit with a Million $$$ & would play literally every hand , calling it small ball poker , where u see as many flops as possible , keep the pot small & get F on river 😂😂😭😭

The worst hand mike has there is ak or aq of clubs. Often times he has qq, kK or AA. It was a crying call. Was he hoping he had ak no clubs?

@@izang5800 It was a crying call either way but Mike does this a lot with AK offsuit when the board comes like this. So Im pretty sure thats what Daniel figured.

@@izang5800 Gabe Kaplan mentioned, Mike is playing so tight, Negreanu should have thrown his hand away to a limp 4-b pre. People limp 4-b pre only with AA & KK. Negreanu played like a compulsive gambler in HSP, he called so many 4-b pre with worst possible starting hands & kept losing , hence he was chasing all the money lost & got into deep rabbit 🐇 hole 😭😭

His hair was better than than Bald Negreanu hair

@@shadowsmessage DNegs’ hair was obviously awful back then. But still, how did Matusow never notice how bad hair gel made his hair look 🤦🏻‍♂️

@@4inchesofpleasure I think the guy never cared about this appearance or hair , Gelling hair was pretty in fashion or a trend thing in early 2000s like 2000-2009

@@shadowsmessage I get someone not caring about his overall appearance but why wear hair gel then? Why not simply go natural? Makes much more sense if you’re making the argument of someone not caring about his appearance.

@@4inchesofpleasure Some people just wanna go with the trend & not care about if it suits their face or personality. People got more into fashion sense/ what suits their personality or body type way later like 2015, when Twitter & Instagram have become household thing & internet was literally like everywhere. Similar to college kids having AirPods while the professor is giving a class / lecture 😂

He had 98 :D

@@murrrxm4059?

@@murrrxm4059 Haha yeah, Dwan such a donkey :D

He was trying to make him feel better lol

It Must of been the hand before

His jaw is swinging for the fences. I guess I'd get loaded too if I was in his spot.

If he calls Daniel isn’t betting anymore! The right play is to raise. Once he calls with Daniel behind him and then if he flats the raise it’s obvious he has monster. If he raises it can still look bluffy

@@stevenwalker9013 lol U fish. Mike played it terribly. What can daniel beat after the flop 3bet?

@@Johnny_Thunder if he puts Daniel on a 9 (after Daniel raises) then it's absolutely the correct play. Especially knowing that station Daniel is always going to pay off, as he should. If you're not putting your chips in with Daniel's hand in a CASH game, and accepting getting coolered even if you think you're beat, then you should just stick to tournaments and refrain from calling other people 'fish'. That's why Daniel jokingly says "I guess everybody else would have folded my hand" - knowing full well that nobody is. Especially in a cash game. Same reason why he bet out his flopped quads, betting out the stone cold flopped nuts super disguises your strength most of the time.

For the people saying mike played the hand correct, you're terrible at poker.

crazy how they were both 28 when this was filmed they look way older

Legendary commentary

Gabe is the best of all time.

How much does Mike currently owe Daniel at this point in 2022? 300K still?

he talked Mike into folding...LOL

I have to go with gold

@@mikerasmussen7993 gold looks and plays like an old lady

He looks like a coke head to

His jaw is spinning 😂

horrible. looks downright nasty

Laziest maybe

He had Ace of clubs 2 of diamonds

hi mike!

hilarious

Hahahahahahahaa

That was so random 😃 fold 89o claim it was 23of Clubs or spades

No

Mike is doing great!! He's almost caught up with the money he owes everyone, especially Daniel and his cats are still alive and his rent is all paid up in his apartment and on top of that he's a top political analyst!!!!

Wtf are you talking about? I went looking for any article about him getting got for $2M, and couldn't find anything . Now I'm super curious.

@@theodoreduggan5917 Ultimate bet scandal. He got cheated.

Some people deserves worse. Mike is one of them, in my opinion. Maybe he is completely different outside of poker oe maybe off camera, all i can see is that everybody barely stand the guy
