Can someone explain Foxen's fold at 27:00 to me please? I'm no tournament player but having bet 550k on the river, with 440k more to call to put the final opponent all-in, with 5 mill chips behind, seems like an 'any 2 cards' moment, no?
You only Love Daniel if you don't play against him. This final he got lucky lucky lucky to take top spot. 20 to 1 chance of winning final hand. 2nd. place pretty sweet to DN Legend.
Is poker mostly luck...like if 9 different players got the cards at a table, would it play it out fairly similar with the person with the best cards getting the most chips even if you switch up the players 100 times
this would be true if bluffs weren’t a thing or different bet sizes, there’s a huge amount of skill as well which is why you see more or less the same pro players winning these events
I respect Daniel & learn a lot from him but that shove was so sick. It was obvious he was beat, did he really put him a draw? Even if he thought he had a 10 & giving him 2 over still gives him terrible odds. I think he just couldn’t fold AK & decided to blank shove knowing he would get called with a J. A pure gamble & against bad odds, really bad poker yet wins, sadly that’s why poker will never be considered a sport.
Where is the bang exactly? He won the first tournament on pure luck with a horrible call, then made several horrible calls and lost the next three tournaments.
@@MichaelSMITHERS-xv2ow Pointing out a fact is me being jealous? I like Negreanu as a player, but the video title is misleading and your comment simply dodges the content of my post via personal attack. Great job loser.
Only amateurs make this statement. But if you play in a lot of tournaments you see the same people ending up at the final tables over and over again. In the long run, it’s a game of skill.
I love daniel but hes so slick with his needling. When foxen rivers the flush, he has to phrase it "oh you already had it?" Just take the L man and move on. No need to extra needle that she got there on the river when you know many are gonna watch. I mean you binked a Q to win the first tourney
I don't get the all-in bet with A K. You're not getting Bonomo to fold. I want to see a flop. I just call to see what the flop brings. Daniel got lucky. The second all-in bet with A K against the set of Js was just idiotic. Again, Daniel got lucky.
He has less than 20 big blinds and would not get all his equity without going all in. I see lots of weekend players make this play this is why they are terrible.
You're not getting Bonomo to fold Qs, no. But you could get him to fold 8s, 7s, 6s, 5s, 4s, 3s, and 2s, which would be a huge win. He's also folding QJ, QT, JT, T9, 98, 87, 76, 65, 54 and any other random Q7 suited, orJ8 suited, type hands that he may be raising which all have decent equity vs AK. Also, Bonomo would call with AQ and AJ, which AK is obviously crushing. You're only scared of Ks and As. No reason to suspect the button has those hands vs a standard min-raise. Doing anything other than raising with AK would be a mistake here.
Only a bad player has to go all in with AK. Whichever hand calls that is worse say so please. Maybe Aq? Because then there's no hand he's favorite against, so this isn't even a single penny and he has so little skill. I'd shoot this one easily if it weren't for his stupid luck to win single penny all the time. 46-54 Negrano and he is all in every time. He is just lucky and nothing else. Stu Unger had crushed him and so had Phil H when he was at his best. I had called with AK even on fake money.
we get it tho. that youre an angry individual who figures you might find the slightest validation in the comment section of youtube. this is your destiny
There it is!!! All pure luck! Especially when everyone knows how to play! Really stupid prmoting guys that were lucky to be the first when nobody knew how to play and are endorsed up the wasou! Without endorsments, Negreanu & helmuth would be living under a bridge.
I mean he's a very popular player. He's pretty likeable, recognizable and he plays in a lot of tournaments. But note he doesn't win every hand even in this video.
