@@CrushlivePoker dude ur the best

He was also lucky many times

Garrett is very GREEDY, he always asks player how much they have chip stacks left before attempting to bluff. If it were me, I wouldn't let him looking into my chip stacks. "Stop looking at my chip stacks, check, bet or fold!!!"

@@asianphillippe007 objectifying chip stacks is disgusting. Guys like Garret only want one thing.

LMAO fake nice and fake humble, Garrett likes to patronize other players at the table, and pretty rude to reg players like Art, Gal, Andy and a few others especially he got heavily challenged in a pot, he has this superior complexity that he supposed to be the best at the table.

Seems like an entitled arrogant guy to me

My buddy used to deal to Gman he doesn't tip.....you can learn how to be a cheap ass from this man.....do t get me wrong brilliant poker mind!

Lol learn how to angle at table like Garrett? The dude is chatty when other players are in the hand, but when he is in the hand, he wants ppl to be quiet

Lucky was a total douche bag during this session. Karma will pay him back or maybe it has already as we haven’t seen him since

Class? SO sick of people saying he's some amazing guy for poker. Dude tried to weasel and make a big deal out of showing his hand after Lucky, a rec I assume clearly wanted to see it. Then you factor in all the table talk and fishing for information against people who are clearly recs in these games and it's just a joke how people still think he's a "great ambassador". Don't get me wrong, he's a great player but to say otherwise is just not true.

@@ilove2qq No offense, bro, but everything you said is wrong af. "Dude tried to weasel and make a big deal out of showing his hand" - you need to rewatch the video. He confirmed Lucky's request and then showed his hand. "Lucky, a rec" - Other than the uber-rich, how many recreational players do you know that would play 200/400 against Garret, Dwan, and Phil Ivey??? Wrong. "Then you factor in all the table talk and fishing for information against people who are clearly recs" - another dumb statement as a little table talk is part of the game and Garret does this pretty minimally as he is mostly talking to himself. By the way, I'm not a Garet fanboy - just pointing out that your statements are dumb af.

@@michaelg4664 You said it yourself, "confirmed lucky's request". Look at how Lucky reacts when Garrett calls in the last hand of the vid, flip it over and take it on the chin. As soon as Lucky calls, Garrett should show, and when Lucky doesn't after he says "you win", then flip it over and own up to it. He makes a face, make an exaggerated motion with his arms and is clearly making a big deal out of it. Anyone who's watched these streams/highlights knows this hand and his reaction is out of the ordinary. How many recs play 2/4 against Dwan and Ivey? Ill leave Garrett out for obvious reasons, *insert Triton recs* here? Bill klien? What about Miki? Krish? Come on man you're embarrassing yourself. Or are we going to classify everyone there under "Uber rich? Either way, you're either a rec or a pro in a game like this. Are you really going to sit there and tell me Lucky is a pro? I'm well aware table talk is part of the game, and maybe if you read my original comment, you'd understand the context behind the point you decided to cherry pick. "Talking to himself", as if A) That isn't decided to incite a reaction and B) the constant looks at his opponent and others for validation isn't deliberate. Grow up man, you're obviously a Garrett fanboy.

@@ilove2qq I could pick apart what you've written, but won't bother as it'd be a waste of time. If you think a lot of "recreational" players (who aren't rich af) play 200/400 against world-class players, then keep thinking that, and if you think that Garret was out of line to confirm Lucky's unusual request before showing his cards, then keep thinking that. I couldn't really care less.

@@michaelg4664 could pick apart... But won't? Could care less but here you are replying. Hmmm checks out?

Aka, "when Garrett loses"

@@pugsnhogz ...or just Un-Lucky

@@timb4321 lol well played

@@pugsnhogz yea but lucky was making sneaky nutted hands while garret had his best possible bluff catchers and blocker hands to bluff with

@@Matt-lp2bs Playing against a player like Lucky, blocker hands doesn't mean much if your opponent doesn't think at a higher poker level.

Yea Lucky's the best.

Sometimes he just goes to fast, if he just slows down and thinks for a second he might be able to get more money. Like how he led the river with the JJ set. Like you’re really not getting called by anything worse, but if you check you give him a chance to bluff at it.

As he loses every pot 🤕🙉

@@ThereAreTwoGenders So give a free card for str8 or flush

@@krisedwards5265 it's poker, guy. i'd rather be lucky than good.

obviously he looks African American, I think that's what your implying

Thank you for wording my thoughts when I heard him say that 😂 it’s like when pros want the information from fish, half the time your just going to unnecessarily upset them and not be able to do anything with the info anyway because they play so inconsistently

So gross. Zero class

@@Adam-hi9dh yeah his arrogance is on a whole different level. Entitled vibes

You guys are so oblivious. This is part of guys like LUCKY game. He tries to tilt you .

Well, it seems things have changed quite a bit in the months since you posted your comment.

@@MrJamberee nope comment still stands. That was a shit situation with two sus individuals lol but nothing can be proven for one side or the other so no point in arguing it

Lmao the emotion is because of the huge amounts of money these guys are playing with

@@sembijpost6612 LOL For real. These commenters say the dumbest shit.

First RU-vid comment in maybe a decade simply to say, Garrett is a class act my ass. Who are these paid fake commenters? And F the announcer for questioning Lucky’s etiquette after Garrett bombs the 50k pot on the river with NOTHING and Lucky calls the $80k and wants to see the hand. Shameful of the announcer. Lucky paid to see the two cards if he’s expected to shown his own cards. Etiquette my ass at these stakes. I stand with Lucky.

@@sembijpost6612 I don’t see any other players expressing their emotions like Gman?

@@JJ-yx6jy broke boy

Why should he be the only one winning? Why should poker favour him? Poker is ultimately luck

It happens. Once someone has your number on the table you're screwed. Then you try to go after them and they continue to dominate you.

@@perfectzero87 there is no such thing. Each dealing of hands is an independent event. Though you claim Person A could in their have Person B’s “number” a Person C could come along and run Person A ragged by getting “lucky” and take all that he had earned from B

@@perfectzero87 yes, it’s happened to me before. People who don’t play poker won’t understand

@@skl5532 its luck with some skills, either part plays in the game of poker

apparently the answer is to say "fuck" a lot... I'm on my way

@@furr0ci0us hahahahha. Well frustration is inevitable. But no card throwing. No condescending comments. No tilt. Always saying nice hand. Etc.

Should’ve just walked away…. easier said then actually executing it.

My dad always said "show me a good loser and I will show you a loser"!

@@tranquility2348 yea he’s def a loser. Only the biggest live cash crusher in LA

Hes an atm😂

Yes, its crazy how ever so often its one guy at the table that you just can't beat that night. If you have played poker long enough you will experience the same. Tough!

Guys a total douche bag and this is lovely to watch.

and the more "energy" is in the system, the more random is the wave function

Big pot, big hand! Small pot, small hand! I like him, but he had easy folds

agree. certainly in a down period right now... we're lucky to see a a couple of $100k pots on Friday games and the people just aren't the same...

Garrets won plenty of lambos, don’t worry about him

because you treat everyone with respect, thats how you win at life (long run) regardless its winning or losing, insulting people is low value act.

In POKER good hand means FUKYOU..LOL

@@davidw8249 nice bluff, but they say nice hand lmai

I like watching him lose as his table etiquette is just an act. He’s always angling and trying to trip people up.

maybe he earned that nickname in the slammer

Yeah I feel like this is sort of a problem with letting amateurs at high stakes tables. If I was a pro, I would never play with amateurs, too much BS.

Ametuers are needed to keep good games running. They’re the fish that’s needed to feed the sharks.

@@dannygibson2597 You're joking, right?

Never really see garret using speech play. He does talk out loud a lot when he’s in a tough spot and there’s no more action behind him.

Hahahaha. He accused a player of cheating, but he had zero evidence, so he made stuff up about the player and her friends and smeared all of them - with no evidence of cheating. He also made a scene, demanded his money back, embarrassed the casino… yeah, he’s a real gem of a guy.

Yes Lucky is amazing. 😃 But putting the joke aside with Lucky I can really identify as a guy sitting at the tables doing his thing and getting lucky.

Not exactly. If Garrett mucks he doesn't get to see Lucky's hand. Lucky can simply take the pot and muck his cards as well.

garrett's one of the most famous poker players on the internet rn. therefore clips of him beating lesser known players get more views "garrett adelstein highlights". therefore we see more clips of garret coolering than getting coolered. i could be wrong but there's definitely enough hours of him playing on livestreams that an analysis of his luck would be pretty conclusive.

@@ts4gv yeah, which is he overtakes more often than probability would suggest

In live, that's not really the norm. The rule is in place to catch collusion, not to provide information. 99% of the world follows the standard and doesn't ask. It's not the end of the world, but why is Lucky entitled to info that he doesn't have to give out regularly? It doesn't upset me when somebody asks, but there is a difference between a $500 stack and a $200K stack.

U kidding right? If you turn over ur hand right away when it's not your turn, you are both missing out on information on your opponent as well as giving the other regs information about you. Double L, enjoy a lower winrate.

@@timb4321 Wait, but in casino games the standard IS for the player who made the last bet to show first when called. Lucky could choose to just show his hand after Garret said 'nice hand,' but given he called Garret's bet he's definitely entitled to see Garrett's hand, and from what I could hear Garret asked him if he wanted to see before showing.

Dumb comment.

@@mikekrebs5598 understood. I interpreted the post I responded to as saying people in casinos overall should show their hands. In this specific case, Lucky shouldn't be punished because he chose not to slow-roll.

your opponent can always muck without showing, but you also dont have to show

@@skymanross is correct - Garrett could have mucked after he was called, it is not up to the opponent to "let" him. But he wanted to see the winning hand, so he had to show his. I really can't understand some of the other comments on this page, with some people getting riled because Garrett didn't show straight away, and others getting riled because Lucky didn't show straight away. There were no angles being played, no etiquette being ignored.

It’s funnier to me this spot because lucky thinks he actually will use any “info” Garrett gives by showing the AJ. Lucky is just a random whale that will always punt off to Garrett eventually

Actually Lucky was getting hit with the deck. Getting hit by the deck means a good thing not bad

@@seankiesling2054 my idea is you call it getting spanked by the deck when it’s bad.

Yoooo lmaaaao

Lol Trick Time is so far below Garrett

Trick time is horrible. The reg fish who can’t fold and overplays his hands. Trick time is trash

@@hellohi4556 And now trick time is MIA

@@aloofmeatloaf1467 maybe the fish stopped his heater.

Lucky had some skills yep, simply pumped out the cash

Exactly. He can always watch the stream after. I guess he wanted the info to adjust his game in real time.

probably more often

Lol. Yessir.. After Garrett asks to see stack again when nothing changed, I call that an angle

At the end of the day it’s bad form. If you can’t figure out what their bluff range is then you’re just a lucky fish.

@@baseball17771 "if u can't figure out their bluff range..." naw sir..what? How u gonna figure it if u never see opponents bluff range..good on Lucky to want Garrett to show..obviously the reason why Garrett would rather not show..so, yeah...no

Exactly!!! Idk why everyone else is ignoring what he did

I'm with you. But, I take it a bit further. This particular rule of etiquette is a joke. If you say my hand is good and then insist on seeing my hand before you muck your cards, I owe you nothing. Either say nice hand and muck or flip your cards over. Otherwise, I'm the only one giving information.

Not classless. You guys don't realize Lucky tries to tilt guys. Part of his game. He ain't done a single thing wrong unethical or against any rules.

That's a completely standard defend.

He's not defending anything

I totally agree. If you got caught bluffing, muck the hand to avoid showing.

< 1% of what he just won off of g man lol

If you watched streams from a few years ago, even when he was playing pros he still had the etiquette
