Unbelievable Poker Move: Folding the 2nd Nut Flush at $1-$3? 

jesus that high jack is an absolute donkey min clicking with the nuts on double flush board and jamming over the top when one of the draw gets there

Interesting hand. This is a VERY clear fold. Bart mentioned that someone in the chat wanted to call because this is "essentially the 2nd nuts". That's horrible logic; if you don't find a fold here you need to work on hand reading. Absolutely everything in this hand points to a fold; the absolute strength of your hand is irrelevant. One player "doesn't have fold button", the raiser is a "solid player" and therefore knows that, and is therefore unbalanced here (has no bluffs). You have the Jc to go with your Kc, which blocks most of the value range that you can beat. The solid player is not playing Q5s. The suited connectors that he might play all make straight flushes that beat you. You are losing to all the Axcc (and he can be playing any of them). You are beating QTcc and maybe Q9cc (though I doubt Q9 is in the villain's range). You literally losing 90% of the time here. Heads up it's a call because he will have bluffs. In this there are no bluffs and his value range is absolutely destroying you.

Great fold, I don’t know if I could have found it though multiway always makes me pucker up

pretty sick fold. Lesson learned, 3b pre and make your life easy

Wow what a hand! Super interesting one and definitely something to think about. I was thinking A10cc. The raise on the turn makes sense because hed have turned open ended and the nut flush draw

When the BN raised on the river, at first I thought "oh, my hand is under-repped, I'm calling there". But when I paused the video to think about it, there really aren't many flushes that could get there on the river that you beat given how the hand was played. I don't think I could have seen this in real time though, probably would have called. Definitely thought it would be a5cc though.

Q/10 of clubs was what I was thinking, man tough spot - wow great fold - it being a multi way pot is what really changes the dynamics

Q10cc raises river for sure. Also it's perfect hand to stick around on turn.

Went to Philly 2 weeks ago. Play at Live, Rivers, and Parx.

I think we got at least 1 piece of evidence for caller's description of BTN as a good player. His river play should be the effective nuts 3 handed on the river here.

What a fold, bravo sir 😮

nice fold . Im not sure if im capable in that spot for doing so . Congrats for caller

Great fold, but I think that's why you have to 3 bet post flop because the button will be flat calling with all the ace x suited types of hands, especially vs bad players. I think if u 3 bet u get the good player to fold often and get a call from 1 of the bad players.

I think this is a solid fold given the early position lead out and big raise by the button. Kind of squeezed here, and more hands out there that beat you than ones you beat, with any realistic assessment. Also his assessment of the button player.......Hurts to fold here, but I think it a good one given the situation.

"jams JTo like its the nuts" LOL

Before the end is revealed, I'm remembering a hand a while back with a similar situation 3 ways where hero folds the winning flush to a 3 bet from a smaller flush, and the original bettor called with a smaller flush. I'm wondering if this might be something like that.

Typing this before the result. Due to the looseness of this table, someone has a 10 at the very least and is overplaying it. See people do this all the time with on board straights. Easy fold after a bet raise, but heads up I would call

Very interesting hand

I like how the caller justifies his actions from player tendencies. Barts like you should 3bet in a vacuum but then you chase away the fish.

call me a fish, I am never folding there. Especially on a splashy table.

What if the button reads the same as the hero that the HJ is never bet folding and has the jack hearts with 10 of clubs and is blocking the big straight flush and is thinking they have gin in a 4 liner to someone never folding their bet they make. This is uncomfortable and if you don't have the jack of clubs here you got much easier call. This is now in my mind a feel of how I think the button is playing and trusting a live read. I know this isn't sound but sometimes have to factor in.

If you three bet preflop and then continuation bet on the flop then I think you win that hand most times pretty sure A3 is not holding on after a big flop bet

Have to play the player(s)... great hand!

This is the 5th nut flush, not 2nd.

I can probably never fold here given the player pool in Philly. It's almost as bad as Texas. I mean guy shoved J10 ...

I folded this hand once and guy showed a bluff. I’ll never do it again. Everyone at table said no way you fold. I gave the player way too much credit. I was actually sitting to his right.

Yeah I would need to be 3k deep (on 1/3) to consider folding second nuts lol.

This is actually the 5th nuts

That was an interesting one. My first reaction was if you're folding 2nd nut made flushes, you shouldn't be going in preflop with Kx hands. Still not sure if this was a good fold or just a results biased outcome. I think the determining factor would be if button also recognized the player with JTo didn't have a fold button, because then you can more confidently discount that he's bluffing and the analysis of there being very few weaker flushes holds: but if everyone at the table was capable of bluffing/folding reasonably accurately, this feels like a hand you have to call to protect against bluffs. Like, what's the range you represent in this spot, and what % of it are you folding if you're mucking K high flushes?

Great hand reading, check on river, and laydown by caller. Even if hero 3B pre, it doesn't seem like HJ was going to fold, and if HJ calls, BTN would probably call behind, so hero lost the minimum on this hand.

Lot of smaller flush draws out there. 2-3 clubs, 3-4 clubs, 4-5 clubs, Q-10 clubs. Hell this is a $1/$3 game. People love calling preflop with suited cards, until it gets to a 3-bet, then everyone folds. Q-2,3,4,5 clubs could all be showing up. Of course there are a lot of AX of clubs combos out there too. All these hands would be eliminated if there was bet on the flop, but it checked through. The HJ really screwed this one up. He opens with J-10. Then hits an open-ender on the flop with two overs. He checks. If he continuation bets, he most likely takes the pot right there. Button could also be just bluffing with the straight on the board. If you don't have a 10 or flush, you're folding to the raise. That's a little suicidal though with a player behind

The thumbnail makes him look like woody from Toy Story. There’s a snake in my boot!

10-9c, 9-5c, 5-4c, Axc, then King high flush.

Wouldn't his hand be the fifth nuts?

Pretty rough spot as played. Seems reasonable not to give anyone a straight flush that contains the 9c after flop check through... Odds of a two card A high flush out against you when you have a two card K high flush is around 2%. After checking the river and seeing this dynamic with the bet/raise with a straight on board I think I may have sigh called this one off =/.

won't spoil it but good video

King high flush is only the 4th nuts on that board easy fold

You want to keep bad players in with KJs? 3 squeeze these spots almost every time.

2:00 you wanted to keep them in?? Good for you! You really managed to keep em in!!

910cc 95cc Axcc many flushes beat him and he blocks other Broadway flushes.

I came to the fold as well, but mostly because of the Btn raise size. That large sizing tells me he's more likely to have a straight flush or the ace high flush. Great analysis by Bart. there are so many more combos of ace high flush. I don't know if any of us can think that clearly in the heat of the moment though

Is this a reupload

I woulda open shoved river, but i digress

5th nut flush 9c 10c, 4c 5c, 5c 9c, Ac x better hands

Unless you're playing deep stack, in 1-2 with the 2nd nuts, you're only playing the player and any tells. I can't fold otherwise

I don't understand why you'd even mention "at 1-3". Reason being that I'm much more likely to fold a big hand at 1/3 than at any higher stakes as opponents are capable of bluffing.

Im broke there.

9/10 clubs is the nuts and 4/5 of clubs is the second nuts. KJ of clubs is actually the 4th nuts.

HJ is the preflop raiser and gets a flop he can definitely work with but checks it.....why not C-bet? If he bets, he takes it down right there and doesn't lose everything.

It always surprises me how shocked you are Bart with open sizes. I’m a regular near full time player and when I play 1/2 the typical standard open is 20, and over a $5 straddle, $30. Sometimes 1/2 I go 25. People call with 710o otherwise.

I would’ve never folded here

At 1/3 I'm never folding.

Fifth nuts not second nuts!!

yeah im going broke there. im not very good

Caller just wanted everyone to know how Awesome he is

Its an ugly spot but he can EASILY have the best hand. Well actually there arent many other flushes that he can beat. I think I have to call because of the check.

Lesson learned….. bet the flop, get rid of the junk.

Scared money

Bill First!

It was obvious th guy had th nuts. Bart downplays low stakes players as if everyone is an idiot. ALL of barts fanbase is low stakes players though???

It's the 5th nut flush btw

Cracks me up people think $20 is a big raise in 1/3. Just 2 days ago I 1/3 the whole table called my $35 raise after limping and we had a 5 way pot when utg+1 3bet $20 to $130. Y’all just don’t know lol

If H 3-bet pre to $120, no one would called. Maybe BTN only, (?) .... and he would've been easily forced out on flop C-bet ($100). So, Winning $60 (20 bb) pre, or $180 (60 bb) profit on flop - easy and simple. Case closed. . Then, with a spec hand (has 0 ZERO!! Showdown value) betting turn high connected board into 3 opponents is a disastrous play. SO: H is the biggest FISH here.

As experience as you are how do you get that wrong hijack cut off button is the order It does not go hijack metal position button

I honestly don't know why anyone looks to Bart for advice. Every time I watch him on stream he plays like a total nit and he's steamrolled.

fairly easy fold though.....not loving it but its a fold

I think he's bluffing with A club
