Generally these televised final tables are the results of a multi-day tournament, while playing in the tournament the final table players accrued a different amount of chips as they reached the final table.
1:25 this is why in Poker I never fold from the start unless someone pushes me All-In. Brandon throws away 6 and 4 and on the table lies 8,5,7. he would habe rekt both of them
It's just kind of a double edged sword though. I'm honestly not sure which is "right" and which is "wrong", but both have pros and cons. If you play it your way then yeah you won't miss those hands, but those hands also won't happen very often and seeing every flop will just make you blind out faster. On the contrary, folding those hands will let you survive the blinds longer while you wait for stronger preflop hands, but you will miss those hands like you mentioned.
1:44 how is this an awful flop for david? its one of the cleanest to get it in with backdoors this guy on commentary has no clue what hes talking about
