@@AtownOriginaljust out of curiosity, where is this $8 million figure from? Is it documented? Or just a guess? Is it $7 million on hustler and $1m to Berkey?
he sells the HCL. that is why hcl loves him because it is a live stream and livestream needs to be entertaining to catch more viewers. airball is pure entertainment on hcl wether he suck at poker or vice versa😊
That's all it is! He folded AA's on dead board. I agree with another comment that this nothing but entertainment and got time out'd showed me that's all it is airball don't have $ he is fronted chips to get views.
live streams is pure part of entertainment . lives streams needs entertainment people they don't invite players that are boring because it will lose viewers. that is why hcl loves airball
if amazing means annoying, then yes. seems like an awesome guy, great character but his play style doesn't warrant his appearances on the show if they can't mute out his beavis/bhead sounds. nik on the other hand doesn't seem as awesome but his play style is so entertaining i could put up with even more annoying sounds from him and not complain.
From the title I really thought this was gonna be nik getting snapcalled on a buncha bluffs. im surprised with some of the creative play in these spots
Easy to say when you can see the cards, but on the 57759 I'm pretty sure you can auto call the A high vs. Nik and print money over the long run. Given the way Nik plays, suuurely he's overbluffing here compared to how often he has a boat. And the chance of him doing this for value with anything less seems remote (especially given the quickness and size of the bet). Just my 2 cents though, obviously a harder call to make at the table.
Mariano's river raise is a genuine masterpiece. This is what live poker on the highest level looks like. Based on the speed of his play, this was planned. Bet small with a no-good single pair. Induce a value raise from an overpair, re-raise as a bluff with massive sizing. This is the first time this sort of play is televised.
@@barryjbI regularly play in reasonably big mixed games in both EU and North America with 500NL+ regs. Anyone telling you “this is standard” is a pinecone.
Agreed. I also couldn’t help but wonder if Mariano was noticing how Airball seemed to be trying to intimidate him by leaning in close and watching him. Maybe it was just me but it seemed like Airball was trying too hard to posture.
I used to weight much much heavier like Nick and I always tilt and lose it all on poker table. Now I lost a lot of weight and put on so much muscle, I never tilt now. So I guess health is the biggest factor not to tilt and I guess Mariano or King Henry proves that
Nik is the one being exploited and he’s the only one that doesn’t realize it 😂 Sure he got some bluffs through but he’s a consistent loser for a reason. Leaky Nik
@@happytrailsgaming No I mean exploitative poker by running big bluffs on Nits(Will/Brown Baller/Henry and Mike X to some extent) when you put them on marginal hands that have you beat.... or Over Betting against Sheriff/Call Station type players when you should have the best hand. Bad bluffs would be running the plays he did in this session on Mariano or Andy.
@@Jolly-Green-Steve Although these happen to be very well played bluffs and I understand how they’re exploitive but Nik consistently makes these plays vs the very same players and is snapped or called off usually. Nik is easily trapped in these scenarios all the time. I’d argue that taking these lines against nits is what gets him in trouble the most. They typically slow play a monster, which he tries to exploit as a weak hand/ or hes tilted and gets dominated lol I think most of these players see him as a very polorizing player and try to pick their spots hence why you see him almost getting called by ace high or called by hands that shouldn’t see past the flop/turn.
I watch any video with airball just to watch him lose. How do you talk shit being down $8 million?? To call him a douche bag would be an insult to douche bags
Airbag his bluff % is too much, you have hero call sometimes. They are folding too much. And remember, Nik, his parents are multi millionaires. It’s not hard to throw money around again and again, on big bluffs when your parents will bail you when you lose.
the One time you think airball might have made nice play with the bluff it turns out by his own statement that he acted out of pure emotion "I was mad at andy" lol
Okay... if you've played live you know one of the most disgusting objects in the world are poker chips. Watching Airball rub his eye furiously is as bad, maybe worse then what I had thought was the most disgusting thing Ive seen at the table, which was a woman chewing on a chip.
2:37 who was that said "it's a spicy game today, I don't know why." This is such a bs comment to make at this comment when not in the hand. You're basically stating out loud that you think that mariano is bluffing. You wouldn't say "its spicy" if you saw his hand and he had the nuts.
i feel like it's necessary to point out that this guy is down 8 million dollars in the last several months. These plays might work in the short term but he's torching money overall.....
If anyone notices Nik play he always makes sure he buy-ins for the most to have the extra added pressure when going against a significantly smaller stack. Its not even entertaining. Whenever Nik plays against stacks similar to his he show's his true colors.
why would you ever fold pocket aces on that , and this guy nik would raise it with a pair of 2s, nik quit playing with your dads money and come to the real world
