I've watched this at least 20 times and it never gets old. "I think I'll call with a 5" and Daniel simulating an explosion with his hands is priceless.
I love the little dynamic between these two. Daniel handle's his tantrums really well, and Phil clearly has a lot of respect for Daniel. His rants are from frustration but half-joking compared to pretty much any other person he's ranted against.
Comic -Helmuth is a narcissist, I think the best example of this is when Bill Klein was bluffing against Garret Adelstein. The whole table was fascinated EXCEPT Helmuth, were following the play with great interest. Helmuth in typical Helmuth style was rabbiting on about things nobody else was interested in. " What fruit have you got.?" " I only like blueberry's. " The rest of the table are in awe of Bill Klein as he pulls of a unbelievable bluff. With Helmuth wondering why nobody being interested in what he is saying.
The concept is 'tilt'. While you're in Krakatoa mode, your mind isn't on your game, it's like taking candy from a baby. When Phil's mind is on his game, he's highly dangerous. They try and keep him on tilt. Alas, it's not hard.
I've tried to chop this up, dissect this play in my head, understand it. I still don't. Did he really think Daniel had a more likely chance of having a KA? There are 4 outs for that. He already has the 9s full of kings.... bet the friggin house!
@@crazyxtagen Ace - anything beats K9. The aces counterfit Phil's pair of kings. With two 9s on the table, an ace would've given Daniel a better full house. Hands with an ace are probably ~25% of Daniel's range there, so there isn't a ton of hands that call a raise there that don't have Phil beat.
@istreamit They are pretty robotic in their logic. You can exploit it like you say though. I learned that if you try to bluff, you WILL lose in that game. Its either all-in on a good hand, or fold.
i always wonder if Phils TV appearance money has been covering his poker money in the games because he is getting funnier rather than angrier. Love watching these guys, love Junglemans poker also.
If two big names sit at your table its better to let them fight it out and end up placing higher when of then gets eliminated rather than joining the fight and risking to be the first eliminated.
Hands aren't absolute and in a vacuum in hold 'em. The way he had that full house was precarious, since four of the cards were on the table. In the clutch, what he had was a sketchy full house that could easily have been beaten by a whole bunch of outs. What Hellmuth meant was the kind of hand where the table tells him his hand is completely good, or at least overwhelmingly likely to be good, and Daniel still staying in with him. You can't be bluffed off something when you know no hole cards provide any outs.
That full house was not precarious. There weren’t 4 cards on the board, he had 3 cards on the board with K-9 hole cards. He wasn’t up against a whole bunch of outs. With 2 9s on the board and a third 9 as his hole card, he couldn’t have been up against 4 9s. The only hands that could have beaten him would be an ace giving Daniel a better full house, or pocket kings giving Daniel 4 kings. That’s it. One out of the remaining 2 aces or both of the remaining kings. Yes of course it’s possible the opponent could have one of those hands but it’s highly unlikely. Poker is a game of odds. If you’ve already made a full house and your opponent only has 3 outs, you push your chips in every single time, and if you happen to lose that hand, you tip your cap and make the same exact play the next time it happens. Also the fact that Daniel didn’t push earlier made it even more unlikely that he had an ace. Hellmuth just always seems to outthink himself when all he has to do is play the odds. He also seems to be terrible at reading his opponent.
@@ErikDayne Yea, Daniel likely would have raise earlier if he had an ace, meaning pocket kings was his only one out...Phil fucked up. But that is exactly what happened when you get tilted, and Phil seems to get tilted rather easily. I don't know if it's because he is an emotional guy or because he thinks he is better than everyone and gets frustrated the second he falls behind.
I have no idea how Hellmuth won all those bracelets. Every time I watch him play he’s making bad reads and getting tilted. In this clip alone, out of 3 hands, he folded a full house in one hand and called with 4 spades on the board in another.
@@crazytrain111 I mean, he was big blind so he's already in the pot and he got a free turn so technically he did play it perfect lol. If Daniel raised with that I could see Hellmuths frustration
@@dad32509 hellmuth only has himself to blame in that last hand. calling with a straight on that board against the big blind that checked. lol. You can say daniel got lucky but he played it perfectly. hellmuth made it too easy for him, giving daniel 4 cards for free.
Also the class of Daniel to only show the 7. If he had have shown both I think we’d be reading about Hellmuth’s subsequent arrest for strangling Danny boy.
And look who has the most bracelets. Daniel is a tremendous player but misreading a person is much more likely then misreading the odds in a card game.
@@e46fun Fair point, but if Daniel knows how Phil plays cards and uses it against him. Phil always seems none the wiser and refuses to adapt to the game.
I listen to this video every once in a while, when I need to be cheered! This legendary sequence of Hellmuth tilts ands rant after he folds his full to a Negreanu bluff is GOLDEN!! The players chatting about Hellmuth at the table, combined with the commentators laughs and comments is still legendary!
I love the interaction after the first hand. Negreanu just lets Hellmuth talk and is gracious, doesn't try to rub it in or anything, meanwhile Hellmuth really thinks Negreanu had the better hand.
I'm an old man (67 yrs). I have a library of classic films I've recorded and watch repeatedly because they're so good .. Ben Hur ... Twelve Angry Men ... Raiders of the Lost Ark ... and this vid of Daniel and Phil now joins the library !!
"When I have one of the hands you've had against me and you have one of the hands I've had against you..." Right after that full house fold is hilarious.
It's a double-paired board though. A fullhouse isn't as rare on a double paired board. And if Daniel had any Ace then Phil would be beat. I understand Phil's fold. Most people don't. That's why Phil has 17 bracelets and you're typing from your mum's basement.
@@SuperYtc1 Yeah I mean to Phil it was risky it was like a 50-50 shot he could have EASILY had an ace and he could have had two and it would have been tragic if he called that bet, talk about tilt, he would have been pissed off. I've seen him take a risk like that and lose he must not have wanted to do it again. Daniel made a smart bluff he could have easily had that Ace and I think Phil gave some tells that said he didn't have an Ace because he was a bit unsure on his bets unless he was trying to bait for a bigger pot he would have bet bigger. If Phil had the Ace, then it was almost a for sure winner. Phil knew he didn't so of course he thought of the possibility of Daniel having it that's why he was pissed that he had to fold it.
@@SuperYtc1 I'm not a fan of Phil or Daniel, but you can clearly see that Negreneau is so much smarter than Hellmuth, that he can run circles around him, with his eyes closed. Phil is helpless, to do anything other than complain that life isn't fair.
@@hxhdfjifzirstc894Negreanu is great at cash games cuz cash game tends to reward fearless donkeys that call with anything. Phil is bad at cash games because he plays them like tourneys (something he is the undisputed GOAT at, btw) and in cash games, odds, ranges and whatnot are completely different..
It amuses me most, because Phil probably could have won the hand by checking the river. Daniel fully outplayed him, but Phil thinks it's bad luck. I'm not even sure he realized he got bluffed, even after Daniel mentioned he had 86 off.
@@danieljoseph9810 It's because he's awful against good players, but is one of if not the best at taking advantage of bad/inexperienced players and they aren't on TV.
Daniel literally ALWAYS trolls hellmuth in my favorite way possible. "Just unlucky, they always say!" "Gotta happen soon, right? King Jack, yeah that's about right." "I hear ya buddy. Hey- you'll get em next time." In hellmuth's world, everyone else has no idea how to play poker, and it's soooo funny.
You gotta admit, Daniel was getting lucky hand after hand though. Phil made the right moves with the best hand initially, and Daniel just kept sucking out on him on the turn/river. But then again, that's poker - luck will always be involved no matter how great you play. Otherwise, Phil would have won almost every time because he really is that good.
this is absolutely hilarious. Phil is a national treasure. He is the man at big field tournaments he truly is. But he gets waxed by the real gangsters of the cash games
God, I love it. Daniel just picks at him a little bit more at 6:00 "Straight flush draw." like he's a noob. I laughed so hard. At least Phil is good for a few laughs when he blows his stack.
I've re-watched this vid every few months over the course of the past 3 years...never fails to make me absolutely holler! Nothing like a good ol' Hellmuth blowup! "Oh I think I'll call you with a 5!" LOL
I dont understand. Wouldn't you always bet the river to get more money out of it. Daniel has a flush and its the last moment they can do anything. Ofcourse he bets, if Phil leaves he gets the money and if Phil calls the 50k he has 50k more.
@@MCB400100 If it were just hand by hand, you would be right, but since it's an ongoing game, you might not. If you always bet on the river with a good hand, your opponents might figure that out and never call. If you only do it some of the time, you can sometimes get them to think you're bluffing, even on the river.
At this point, i dont think anyone feels bad for Phil, but he usually does have a reason for his reactions, the problem is everyone knows hes playing that way. Him and Negreanu are the best i have seen play.
@@christofferrasmussen6533 you don't have to show your hand if everyone else folds. You can, but you don't have to. Hellmuth didn't see the Daniels first hand and just assumed he had an ace
I've been fascinated by Negranu for a while, such an unassuming character but he can destroy you while smiling in your face. His reads on hands and players are almost psychic.
@@SuperYtc1not many people can be one of the top three highest earning poker players of all time though. There’s no denying Daniel is on another level
I’ve watched this video like 10 times now and I can’t get enough of it. Hellmuth’s rivals stay in pots just to see him blow up when suck outs occur. It’s extremely entertaining! Phil deserves every bad beat he gets because he has so little respect for his peers.
I don't think it's a lack of respect so much as it is he finds it absolutely infuriating that people aren't playing the "correct" way (ie. playing mathematical poker).
A perfect example of why Negreanu is the superior poker player to Hellmuth. Hellmuth couldn't even realize Negreanu was reading him like an open book and was not just getting better cards (even on the flush hand he knew Phil didn't have a higher flush). Phil is the type of poker player that makes you feel like you could own with well placed aggression while Daniel would read your bluffs well.
Hellmuth is easy to read. He is too emotional. All you have to do is play the fool. And then you humiliate the arrogant king who cant lose to lower forms of life. Then you simply go aggressive strong hands and win with confidence. Make him question himself and his ability. If he insults you laugh with him as you both love the game.
@@ezrhino100 he maybe easy to read, easily on tilt, but 15 bracelets are something, that's mean he do something right, too bad the TV only show he's being punked by others. My guess is, he's really good at seeing the whole game and putting the right strategy in the tournament. He's rather being bluffed than take some risk of guessing so that he can survived to the tournament
I have watched this SO many times lmao NEVER gets old hahaha 2020 anyone 🤣🤩

-hey Phil?......you can always "fold". Phil is known to be a poor Cash Game player....he thinks he never has to fold and gets himself into those troublesome hands when playing against the other pros. Odds are, you can't be the bestest, every hand.
I love how Daniel is a completely different cat at high stakes.. He looks for every facial expression, every change in chemical balance and breathing rate 😥😥 Man is a cyborg!
