I Won BIG Playing Poker with MrBeast & Ludwig (ft. Hellmuth, Dwan, Ninja, xQc and more) 

The intro had a misspeak as I was trying to get the highlights soon after the game! I meant cash game, not tournament. Also this was my first ever serious cash game, so I apologize if I missed any poker etiquette, will keep it in mind for future 😊

WFM in chess, GM in poker

You were the fish at that table, but no one knew it was the stockfish

I'm so happy for her. Also, it thrills me that Phil got so angry that he was losing and that people were having fun and ignoring his whining...lol

Should I do more poker cash games? 👀

Watching Phil lose is almost as fun as watching others win.

I watched the full 8 hour stream and you crushed it, really good work. I hope you guys do this again.

This was honest to god the best poker stream that has ever happened. Incredible.

The fact you tilted Phil was all I needed for my amusement.

"I don't think poker is easy! I'm sweating my BALLS off here, Phil." - And this is why I love watching Alex play chess, and now poker!

As a massive poker fan I'm honestly blown away by this... How could Phil and Tom, two legends of poker and still to this day play exceptionally well at elite level...lose to amateurs/chess players. To see this happen is actually inspirational as hell.

I'm a full time poker player of 30 years and i loved every decision you made. It's way beyond just having a lucky streak. You had to make a lot of difficult decisions. Well done and well deserved. Ignore the hater comments. You rocked it.

🐐, congrats on the incredible performance! 100% need some more poker content in the future.

All that training with me Nemo and Otz really paid off I see 😂

This was one of the greatest televised poker session. You did great with your calls and bluffs.

I like Phil but genuinely I'd love to see Alex play him heads-up and walk away with a million of his. She's unreadable, calculated, and fearless.

You were awesome! I don't think there's even one person in the poker community who isn't stoked af for you. Best of luck in all your future poker adventures and keep crushing chess 👏

Alex is so used to trash talk in chess that Phil's rants were just child play in comparison. Well done Alex!

I've literally been watching clips of Phil of getting beat, annoyed and losing constantly and now I randomly watch a Botez video after ages and see Phil losing again. I love how nothing changes loool

Alex, you did amazingly well. And triggering Phil was icing on the cake 🙂 Loved it

You played well and were composed the whole time! It was classy that after you won so much, you continued to play for a few hours before making the smart choice to rack up. I was pretty disgusted by the way Phil Helmuth was sucking the joy from your soul every time you won from him. Any pro would kill to get in that game and he was a big baby 😂

of course our gambling expert had to take part in it

Botez you are amazing, I have arguably the most influential Chinese speaking poker channel on RU-vid, and my subscribers loved your performance. Solid and pleasant to watch. so glad you are in the game, you made the show so much better and worth watching. Looking forward to watching more of you Poker games video, cheers.

Definitely one of my favourite Poker streams. You can tell Mr. Beast was just having so much fun, too.

I'm so glad you did such a great job. You did it with elegance, smile on your face and no entitlement. You're a great chess player, content creator, poker player, buissenes woman. The world is your oyster, just keep going.

Alan keating is a legend. Down over a 1mil at the end of the night and still able to smile.

phil being tilted losing to A9off when shoving with A8off is gold

I loved this, this combined a lot of my favorite things into one, thank you for posting this. Great job out there. You don’t see a streak like that very often and you’re not even a pro poker player so congrats. Treat yo self

Great job Alex, you were fantastic! You even got the full Phil Hellmuth experience and gave Dwan (such a lovely guy) his biggest laugh of the day.

everyone is impressed by your poise and you definitely showed some poker skills ... keep in mind though that this game can be intensely frustrating when things go the other way

I can't believe Phil contained himself at a table where multiple people didn't even know how much they had and were betting.

watching phil fuming and the rare sight of dwan are just priceless lol

Alex you were a class act and faded the child's comments (Phil Hellmuth) with style and grace. On a side note this is a cash game not a poker tournament. Do it again please, every time you beat Phil a kitten is saved!

There are poker news sites/channels talking about Alex because of this game. And of course WPT did a highlights video on her on their youtube channel! Great job Alex!

The sudden transition to her in shades is too funny after the win. Gotta get magnus in there.

Phil was absolutely malding lmao good on u for taking his money

So proud of you!! I started playing poker as a hobby about 15 years ago, and then the economy crashed. My high paying job disappeared. I took my savings and turned half of it into a poker bankroll, studied, and treated it like a job instead of just for fun. I went pro 3 years later. It was a blast but I got tired of living in casino hotels and working nights and weekends (when the big money is at the tables.) I went back to work, but I love running out a table on the weekends 🤗 great job girl!

Few notes about this game. 1. You ran INCREDIBLEY well 2. You played well also. Maybe Chewy would he willing to go over your hands with you for coaching. 3. Ms. Botez, it's obvious via your vlogs and even at that poker table, that your incredible personality, class, humanity and just a spirit of fun is why you are so successful and are an elegant human being. 4. You already the Queen of Chess. I jope you can become the Queen of Poker 5. Alan Keating is the consummate pro who was a great representation of what the game of Poker should be. He was stuck 1.2 mil & that did nothing to change his demeanor, his attitude, or his treatment of other players. 6. As a 30+ year pro, during this game (& many other games) Phil Hellmuth proved again that he was the direct opposite of Keating in how he acts - Keating - CLASS, Phil an ASS.

Mr. Beasts’s face at 9:47 when he realised he has the weakest hand 😂

Gotta love Phil. Playing with amateurs and still muttering about bad beats and all ins.

Phil malding was the best part!

I watched this stream from start to end.. .So great.. as soon as I saw Phil Helmuth at the table I knew it was gonna be absolute comedy. What I didn't know is how you'd absolutely trash two of the best poker players of all time.. That A-9 call against Phil's A-8 all in was beyond next level. Please play more poker!

I love how each decision, you showed the math. Once you learn that poker is easy=) Each poker player should take heed to how she thought through each decision with what's the cost to her and EV / Pot odds. 👍 to who ever coached you before. You were a slayer.

My father grew up with Stu Ungar on the lower east-side (NYC). He used to tell me stories about how Stu started playing high-stakes Gin Rummy (popular card game in their younger days). Stu, between ages 13 and 20 or thereabouts, started playing the best players in NY, then America, whoever wanted to fly into NY to play him. Where would a kid his age get the money to play for such high-stakes verses the best players in the country? Back then the lower east-side was controlled by the mob. Stu's father was a small-time bookie, but the higher-ups in the mob would bankroll his games for a 50-50 split of the profits. Stu DESTROYED all of the best Gin Rummy players ... UNDEFEATED. He would clean them all out and beat them like a drum, easily, and he had a habit of mocking his opponents to get under their skin, which definitely worked to his advantage. He was a LEGEND on the lower east-side (card players version of Bobby Fischer), but it got to the point where NOBODY would dare play him anymore, so he packed up and moved to Las Vegas. In Vegas he did the same thing, cleaned out ALL of the best Gin Rummy players in Vegas. Once again he could no-longer get anyone to play him for high-stakes, so he switched to Poker (out of necessity), a game he had never played for real money, but he watched a couple of high-stakes tournaments just to see how the game was played in Vegas, then proceeded to enter the high-stakes tournaments and kept winning them, one after another after another and so on. Then he entered the Vegas World Series of Poker and WON IT ... again, and again, and again! LOL It turns out Stu had a photogenic memory and knew how to count cards, but THAT ASIDE he was just the best card player whoever lived, at any game. Just name the card game, for how much, and he would beat the pants off you, no matter how great you were at it. One time he even walked into a Casino, after he was barred from gambling at every Casino in Vegas (except for the tournaments), and challenged the owner to a 10K bet. He told the owner to take a deck of cards and turn them over at normal speed, one at a time, and when he was down to the last card Stu would guess what card it is. The owner took that bet, seemingly impossible for Stu, and when he got down to the last card Stu CORRECTLY told him which card it was. 😯 If anyone thinks I'm exaggerating, STU UNGAR ... THE GOAT (at Poker, Gin or any card game) ... just look it up for yourselves, there are RU-vid videos about Stu and there's a Wikipedia Page about him too. Unfortunately he died young from a Cocaine habit that killed him.

YES you are a breath of fresh air on the poker scene . Love the chess content too

I wanna see the Chess Brahs at one of these. The tilt would be insane lol

8:26 Phil going straight creeper mode

Phil bitching when Alex won the huge pot is so fucking funny lmao

As a lifetime player and someone who makes a living off the game, I would say you did very well. Phil is always like that is his personality like it or hate it. Keep playing its a beautiful game and there is no ride like it. I had to edit this after seeing your AJ vs Ludwig and damn you played that well, you made a continuation bet after the flop even though you missed which is correct as the aggressor, and you realized you were priced in and called instead of folding a small amount because even if behind you catch up with your hand.

So happy you scooped that big straddle pot. Phil would have probably still insulted everyone if he won it. He's so embarrassing.

I'm here from the Hustler Casino Live stream for the poker content. I've seen your chess videos too, when I was on a chess strategy kick. Nice play. You and the rest of the amateurs weren't allowing yourselves to be bullied (for the most part) and took it to the pros! I absolutely LOVE your call against Phil Hellmuth and how mad he was that you called him WITH THE BETTER HAND! Such great content. It's funny because he gets mad at your call with Ace 9 off suit, when he's playing a worse off suited Ace. Just wiping the floor with these dudes... killing it as the only chick at the table.

Your initial slow-roll on Allen with KK was hilarious, obvi not intentional but definitely made the audience laugh for sure. In the eyes of most experienced players, snap calling with KK in nearly any situation all-in while fist pumping the air...before their pocket 8s that were less than 20% spike a set and crush your soul, that's my typical experience

Congrats on the big win! My wife and I were watching and rooting for you. Phil Hellmuth was way outta line numerous times. What an insane game and great line up!

"I'm sweating my balls off" made me laugh so hard XD

This was great miss Botez hope to see you in more of these cash games

To be honest I never heard of you before you came on the stream. I'm ecstatic that you destroyed Phil, he deserved every bit of pain he got at the table. Hope to see you come back to the live games regularly chess queen.

That was amazing... we can only dream of having a run like that and the fact that you were so classy about it. Absolutely heroic!

I have never seen your channel, but am an avid viewer of hustler live stream. Having played poker for over 20 years, I gotta say I was impressed with your poise. You didn't let the stakes of the game or the player intimidate you. Congrats on your win.

Loved to see your success in the event. The thing people will never see is the work/studying you put in leading up to this event!

Nice to see you doing so well, especially against the pro's!

i watched this whole 8 hour stream and was so happy for you. hope to see you as a mainstay in the poker world. top 100 female earners!

that poker face at 0:29 LOL.

You brought the good vibs on the table and changed the atmosphere. In return, the good vibs came back to you. Good job on managing your bets.

Congrats on the big W! I still have about an hour left of the stream to watch but it's AMAZING! Incredible line up

Amazing run , trust me the poker community cheered you crushing our own men 😅😅 Just imagine if it was Andrea instead of Phil Hellmuth tilting harder at her sister winning and herself losing 🤣🤣🤣

That AJ High vs. flush draw hand that you called was insane. I really enjoyed watching you play!

Phil being upset that someone called him with a better hand is classic. You could have pocket rockets and he would be made you called his preflop push holding big slick.

Never doubt a a high level chess player in a poker game, no matter what their poker experience is

Absolutely amazing that you crushed Phil Hellmuth and Tom Dwan! That is like a chess club amateur beating Magnus Carlsen three games in a row.

Poker highlights are a guilty pleasure of mine, so seeing my favorite creators playing is pretty dope. Congratulations!

mr beast sitting there just like: yeah this is just some small games

Appreciate the humility in calling it a lucky streak----- also skill involved though. We need a Botez, Magnus poker table--- make it happen! GL

The stream was incredibly fun to watch and everything was great except for the fact I had to wake up in 2 hours. good luck in your future poker endeavors.

I watched this whole damn game, loved watching Botez stick it to all those self-important dudes. They underestimated her over and over and paid the piper!

dead at "poker tournament" i love that she kicked ass lmaooooooooooooooooo

Phil’s behavior at the table was despicable

I don't know how poker works, and I barely know any chess strategies, but I love watching you guys! Maybe one day I'll actually have time to learn.

Only found the stream a day ago and watched and loved it all. Especially the way you and Beast took out Phil.

Loved watching you live Alex, hope we get to see more of you at the poker tables. Looks like it pays better than chess lol

Congrats Alex. Love the fact you play chess and poker and you rock at both 💯

After reading the title, I thought she won 100 dollars, maybe 200. 😂 At the beginning of the video, I thought she was joking. Had to read the comments until I finally believed it. 😳

Alex giving a handshake after the first win, like a good chess player.

Thanks for playing you crushed 💪🏻. So cute to call it a tournament. 😂

I've been watching you on and off for a yearish Alex and I'm just gonna say you're an absolute fucking legend. I'm actually a poker player that was trying to get good at chess which was pointless I'm to dumb lel.

This was an incredible event and you absolutely dominated some seasoned pros. Took no shit from Phil too which made it even better content! Great job!

Mr. Fraud not knowing the value of money that’s not his 😂 so bad

yesss alex queen energy throughout the poker match

I WATCHED IT LIVE..U RAN LIKE GOD AND IM VERY HAPPY FOR U AND JIMMY...AND PHIL ONCE AGAIN WAS AN ASS EVEN TOWARDS U AT LEAST TWICE WHEN U HAD THE A9 FOR THE BIG ONE AND THE 54 OF DIAMONDS..ANYWAY GG N GL IN EVERYTHING

I watched the 1st 3 hours of the stream on Sunday and I'm very happy you won BIG. I hope you walked away with at least a quarter of a mil by the end of the show! I'm most happy you won money against Tom and Phil, most esp. Phil. As a member of the poker community, I'd bet that Phil begged (or even paid) to get a seat at this table cuz in his mind it would be easy money to make against these "amatuers"

I like how everyone looks like reasonable adults, then xqc shows up looking flamboyant af😂

Please do more poker! I had such a good time watching this cast of characters and your amazing performance!

I saw this whole thing live. You killed it! (With the help of some cards too haha) but you showed great discipline while still mixing it up a bit for entertainment. Well done that was crazy!

Loving the poker content. Hope for more

Hellmuth is the back complaining “how could someone call ace 9 offsuit” 😂😂😂😂😂

I love the slow roll with pocket kings. Lol.

Incredible cool against some of best. I love chess and poker but chess is skill alone and poker takes skill, luck, and courage. You have all that and more. Congratulations on the big win.

I wish people would stop calling a cash game a "tournament" ...that's probably why people were asking when blinds go up lol...

Bro Alan losing over a million dollars in this tournament is just crazy

So funny to see Hellmuth going off about the A9o call! I’m pretty sure there’s a clip from the Big Game back in the day where Tony G gives out to him for doing the very same thing in putting in like 50k preflop against an amateur😂

Watched the whole thing, you smashed it! You weren't THAT lucky either, give yourself credit!
