Can Daniel Negreanu READ MINDS?! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d9yqgNaiz8C9YGw.html

Worst feeling in poker is to say all in and before you finish the sentence dude says call

I hate those giant chips like wtf is this ? World 4 from mario 3?

Doug Polk Poker doesn't get out of bed for less than a $2million pot.

everyone is talking, looking at their phones, trying to order food ... meanwhile IVY is intensely watching every move KOON and KALAS are making in the hand ... that's a TRUE Professional

Well I got bamboozled by the graphics. Kane is actually SB, not BB.

That snap disappointment from Koon tho lol

Finally, that Durrr-Ivey straight on straight hand was about 10 years old... Time for poker to progress

Those 100k betting disks are hilarious to me

Kane kalas is the son of Henry kalas who was the announcer for the Phillies till he passed away. Fun fact I used to do karate with him when I was a kid.

Commentator sounds like me AKA bustonoko

j7d is in a balanced 5-bet range.

In the background, Tom Dwan talking about Philippine politics lol

Was at a table with Kane Kalas in a $500 tournament at Parx Casino.. Really good player. He played this hand perfectly

Doug cracks me up. I love the editing of his videos.

Chips are moving like they're playing for PLAY MONEY on Party Poker 2006 !!

I heard Tom Dwan but I didn't see him. Why did you censor him? What are you hiding?!

I love your sense of humour Doug and your willingness to take the plss out of yourself. The stakes are getting mental. I remember back 10 years ago at 100 K part on high-stakes poker was rare. It's just gotten crazy the last couple years, it's not necessarily a good thing to attract the casual viewer. When you have a person that can lose the value of 6 good houses in 5 minutes it's just something they cannot relate to.

Can we all just pause to throw cred to the dealer's style being on fleeeek

"for the land of free" had me died laughing.......lmfao

The monologue of "I dont miss high stakes" killing me man

Nice rubber bands holding the chip/plaques together. Why not make them like lego blocks so you could stack them together?

I love how you continue to drop in your drunk play into these highlights.... at least you don't give some dumb excuse as to what happened... we've all done dumb things while drunk, few of us have the honesty to own up to it.....

You may only play micro stakes now, but you still troll on a high stakes level.

All things considered this is a pretty standard hand. Just a few extra zeroes than you normally might see.

Doug finally got some sun

I wonder what should the optimal strategy be for Kane in this spot. Obviously hitting the miracle 10 is great, but what if it came an overcard on the turn or even all low cards, was he supposed to call call fold on the river?

I’ll be honest, j Koon is a boss, but anyone remember when he had a panic attack at a WPT ft in the middle of the hand?! That shit was awesome! The guy next to him had a genuine look of concern on his face for him

I find it amazing how accurate and spot on Doug's commentary is....... especially since he can tailor it to what was done so far after the fact....simply genius...

I was crying in laughter from that outro :-)

Man, do you believe that we will be called by worst hands shoving the river ? Like, I truly do not believe JJ-KK, 99 would call, and in my opinion we’ll only be called by hands that are beating us (TT, AK, AA), só I prefer to check this river. What do you think ?

God those stakes are high. blind 2000/4000. I lose the sb and BB and my entire bankroll is gone

Literally what hand would ever call Koon's all in on the river though? Queens aint calling lmao. JJ.. 99.. nope.

😂 the cut scene to singing i’m dead

SAY IT AINT SO I WILL NOT GO TURN THE LIGHTS OFF CARRY ME HOME!! I loved you in blink182 man!

OMG, the tripoly screen shot was hilarious!!! Thanks as always Doug.

8:41 Ivey Made J Koon do that with his mind…

Doug, thanks for analyzing a hand that isn’t so boring and obvious like AA v KK and has some real poker play! 👏👏👌

No slow roll on that river call... LOL

Doug, shouldn't we value bet only if we're getting called by worst around at least 50 % of times? I don't see kalas calling that often

nice analysis. it matches pretty much what koon had to say about this hand (later). You got to watch his interview with joe ingram. so insightful! great guy.

I almost choked on my sandwich when Doug called Mikita Badziakouski a fish, lmao

The ending was really funny Doug lmao

You're hilarious Doug. Love your work!

What is the reasoning behind three-betting most of the hands you are going to play from the small blind, especially given that you will be playing the rest of the hand out of position?

14:00 but Doug…none of us are playing “good players” who balance their range

Lol the endings on these are always so good

Doug Polk calling Nikita Badziakouski a "Fish" that epic.

"A fish flats from the SB as fish often do" oh man doug is one funny man.

Your amazing Doug with your commentary keep it up :)

Hate that snap call after you’ve gone all in...one of the worst feelings in world when you know you’re are beat

Why doesnt Doug play high stakes any longer? I know he is not broke. Ah ok i just googled it. It IS a grind sometimes. Just sad to see such a great talent not playing high stakes. Love your videos bro.

16:47 TRIPOLEY XD XD XD XD XD You sir are a genius.

As soon as he said we can't forget pots like this idk why but I had a feeling I was gonna hear "oh my gosh" lmao

unreal, these guys are legends

What amazes me more then the entire hand is the singing hahaha

Hey Dougy Love how you broke away from the action and took me in to your daydream at the end.

To me it really looks like kalas is in the SB and paul in the BB. There is a huge yellow button in front of the "fish" and paul acted last preflop!

"Pretty sick"... Your delivery and timing of that cracked me up. Stuff like this is why I can't wait for your next video (it's certainly not the analysis, since i'm a complete moron)

Hey Doug, Fish2013 was otb(see yellow button in front of him) Kalas was in the sb.

wasn't there a hand 30min later that was slightly higher from the guy who lost this pot.

How do you not mention the issue of what Koon expects to get value from? I know he’s not going to be able to have many bluffs if his only value hand is AA, but what bluffs is he going to show up with on the river here when he 5-BET in position pre??? He’s only ever getting called by TT or the slow played aces. It’s a check back on the river

I wish you would put a captian at the end of some of these hands that say's no punches where absorbed during the filming of these poker hands....

beautiful job on the opener for the phillies kalas

That Negreanu clip FUCKING HILARIOUS

he must have had sooo much training to sing that note with such good support and technique! Wow

I saw the livestream yesterday... It was a sick hand!

Good to see Doug back. Now lets see if you can beat the microstakes.....and you want to be my latex salesman

honestly what is gonna calling range of kayne in that spot on river. Koon's bluffs are mainly AK AQ heavy flop and turn, and get there on river. So, KK QQ JJ should check back and get to safe showdown cheaply, losing time to time TT set, and down bet w/ AA AK since koon doesn't really have that much bluffs, and also if he got jammed on river, he should fold AQ and some of AK.

would love to see doug and dwan at the same table one time...

I am new to poker and have a question about the hand. It seemed to me that Jason was repping pocket aces through pocket queens the whole way. The snap call from kalas seemed a little too hasty to me, as Jason could’ve easily had the pocket aces. How was he so sure he didn’t have them?

Hello, can someone please explain that all in. It seems like a terrible move? He was in position to just check it down and take the pot if his ace was good. What hands are going to call that he has beat? The only thing I can think of is he had a read on him like KK, QQ, JJ and trying to pretend he was bluffing and hoping for a hero call? Even then it seems like a pretty poor move. Btw I am a poker newbie, just my thoughts.

lmao at the end with the pennies in the box

Too funny and instructive! Great job.

Range/Combo Question: When you're thinking about removal/combos when sitting with a hand like AQ, how much do you let that influence your decision that an opponent is less likely to have AA, AK, QQ? It seems Dominated hands like this come up constantly, so I've been really confused how to apply reduced available combos. It seems that when I think he's less likely to have aces, because I have a blocker, he usually does.

It kind of makes you wanna sing...hahaha

Doubt you will add anything, but does a flush draw change anything or same principles apply, this was as dry as board as possible as flush comes.

Doug what bluffs do you have on the river to be balanced?

Why do you comment it ? We cannot hear table

OK I know it's late but nobody has answered this correctly yet I think. Here's how the math works (god, I hope I'm not wrong about this!): 839,000 in the middle, let's make it 840k for friendlier numbers - then each player put up 420k into the pot. Let's put Kalas range as 99, TT, JJ - pretty much the only one that makes sense whatsoever; seldomly AA but let's be very generous to him and say he always plays AA like this. Now when he folds, the outcome of the hand for him is -420k that he put into the pot; when he wins, he wins 420k+504k that Koon adds with the river bet, meaning 924k - again, simplify that to 920k. (still with me? good!) Now how much does he fold? TT is 3 combos, 99 and JJ are 6 each, AA has 1 combo left. So he folds 12 combos out of a total 16 (at best!), meaning 3/4 or 75% of the time. When he folds he loses 420k, so out of 4 times he will lose 1,320,000 or 1 million 320k. When he wins it's 920k, which happens one time out of four. So four times this spot happens he will lose 400k on average. In order to prevent that, he needs to call 60% of the time (because Koon's bluff needs to work 40% as he bet 2/3 pot) - that means 9.6/16 combos. TT and AA ARE 4 so he needs to find 5.6 combos from JJ-99 - almost all JJ combos are enough. That, in turn, makes it a profitable value bet for AQ. Besides, if Kalas only called TT/AA here, Koon would only bet AA and own him so probably both know Kalas needs to call more.

Why is it that in many of your videos you talk about how a bigger bet is ok in live ? So smaller Betts are better in online .. I'm just wondering if shouldn't a bet size strategy apply the same in both haven't played online sense Black Friday so just wondering

Here is why Jason Koon has to bet with AQ on the river. Preflop Ranges: - Koon = JJ+, AK+, AQ (some of them), A5s, A4s, KQ (some of them) - Kane = 88+, J10s+, ATs, AJs, AQs, AKo Flop (263k) : 5d 3h 6s By betting half pot, Koon is giving Kane 3 to 1 to call, which means that he has to bluff 25% of the time when he c-bets. Obviously, his value range is JJ, QQ, KK and AA (24 combos). So he has to find 8 bluff combos to be balance. But since his bluff has equity (AQ and A4s can improve on later streets), he can bet like 10 AQ combos 4 A4s combos. From Kane side, the situation is this. He is supposed to defend 66% of his range here. 88+ = 42 combos JTs+ = 16 combos ATs, AJs, AQs, AKo = 24 combos Total: 82 combos So he has to defend 54 combos : 88+ = 42 combos And 12 combos with, for example, back door flush draws: - ATdd, AThh, ATss - AJdd, AJhh, AJss - AQdd, AQhh, AQss - AKdd, AKhh, AKss Turn (519k) : Tc Koon bets 160k (0,3x pot), which means he is supposed to bluff only 20% of the time when he bets, because he gives great odds for Kane to call. The value range of Koon here is still JJ+, so 24 combos. He should have only 6 bluff combos, but with the equity of his bluffs, let's say 8 AQ combos 4 A4s combos. Kane has to call 77% of his range giving the pot odds. It's 42 combos. - 88+ = 39 combos (there are only 3 TT combos now) - ATs = 3 combos Total = 42 combos. River (839k) = Ad So now, Koon goes all-in for 707k. It's, 0,84x the size of the pot. It gives him the opportunity to bluff 32% of the time when he bets. On the other hand, Kane must call 55% of his range, which is kind of wide at that point. It's extremely important, because it means that Kane has to call 23 combos: - TT = 3 combos - ATs = 2 combos (ATdd isn't possible anymore - AA = 3 combos - KK = 6 combos - QQ = 6 combos - and some JJ as well (3 combos from a theorical standpoint) So we can see here that the AQ combos of Koon are a clear value bet since they beat KK, QQ, JJ (that has to call) and block AA and ATs (so 2 combos of aces, and 1 combo of AT). Conclusion : the board is absolutely perfect for Koon range. He should value: - AA = 3 combos - AQo = 8 combos Bluffs: - A4s = 4 combos - JJ = (some of them) Checks: - KK - QQ - JJ (some of them)

Hey Doug, your description for this video is wrong.

You should do the hand not long after for 1.5m with the 56s! You playing at the WSOP this year? I'm looking forward to D Negs WSOP vlog! =)

Hey would anyone know where I could buy the same / similar red plaques? Thanks

Long live the micro stakes! Another great vid, thanks.

When did you change your last name to Kalas? You're twins with his portrait! 😂😂

fair play to Kalas for not nitt-rolling him

Honestly I like a check back from Koon on the river. He has so little bluffs left there and so even JJ QQ KK is going to not call him a lot of the time so the jam is extremely thin. I get it's GTO and we need to balance with 78s but really there is only 4 combos of 78s and he has no other natural bluffs left here. Once he hits the Ace and has some show down value and doesn't have to bluff the third barrel ... maybe it's not GTO but really what worse hand calls in this spot.

you'll get back in there Doug!!

That Phil Ivey stare 😂🙈

I wish Kane had JJ here to see how he would play against this pressure

not sure I understand the river shove, would like some explanation - sure Koon only loses to 1010, but what worse hands will call him when he shoves?

"Just 2,000/4,000 Euro with a 4,000 ante." Barely worth playing for.

I just don’t think Kane would call a river jam here with JJ-KK so I disagree with the river shove, I think it’s a check back despite him rarely being beat but maybe some players would level themselves into a call with QQ and in that case he would be better off jamming, I don’t think Kane is one of those players though but who knows he is crypto rich now.

Your the man bro! love the videos and the tips.

I don't get the all in river. Was he trying to push off AK? Kane called every street, so wouldn't koon be weary of a set?

kudos to Kane Kalas and not slowrolling on the river like Shawn Deeb

Must be so heartbreaking for koon. « all inn»- « call». When you hear the insta call😅

Another great Polker Hand!
