  • They never reveal Teddy's hand, but when he says "that ace could not have helped you" it is natural to assume at that point that he has pocket aces, which would also make sense from a movie standpoint considering that he busted Matt Damon in the beginning of the movie with pocket aces.

    • I interpreted it differently. He said, "You're on a draw? Go away!" earlier in the hand, so Teddy had Mike trying to complete a straight. Neither the turn nor the river could have completed a straight, so that's why he said the ace could not have helped him, not because Teddy was holding bullets and it did help him. It's more likely Teddy flopped a set.

    • @@brandonbreuer6589 Well, except that it's a movie so of course that's exactly what he's going to do. :-) And while at a certain point it's pointless to try to determine what happened in the part of a movie that wasn't shown, he DID indicate in the movie that he thought Mike was on a draw. Given that context, it makes sense that Teddy's comment about the ace was about Mike missing, not Teddy hitting the set. And in the movie universe (in addition to the dramatic effect at the climax point of the movie) his going all in can be explained as further rubbing it in. But we're all extrapolating too far if we're comparing what happens in a movie to what someone would do IRL.

It's the second nuts after 8-9 and I can only assume Teddy put Mike on top pair with a straight draw (10-8,10-9) but no matter what Teddy had his river bet makes no sense. Maybe Mike made top 2 pair on the river and an overbet and he could get a call but he should have value bet. As far as Hollywood goes though, pretty well done.

  • Great analysis Daniel. Yes, aces makes the most sense, as it makes the story come full circle - Teddy beats Mike with aces in the scene at the beginning where Mike gets broke with Ac9c. But also, remember the whole reason why he decided to take the shot at KGB's in the first place - his encounter with Johnny Chan in Atlantic City. The Johnny Chan connection is twofold here - in the scene where the girl comes from the club to try to collect the debt that Worm ran up on Mike's credit, Mike is watching the 1988 WSOP final hand between Eric Seidel and Chan where John flopped the nut straight and checked the turn and river inducing the river shove, which is pretty close to what happened in the final hand of the movie.

    • Good point about tilt explaining some of his bad bets. Also, if he hadn't been tilting he might have recognized that Mike's table talk indicated very strong. For example, if Mike had a weak made hand or was chasing a draw he most likely would not have made the antagonizing "don't splash the pot" statement. Then when Mike claimed he was only calling "to respect himself" it probably meant he was calling for another reason.

Even when he has a bad run of cards, he's nothing but class and has only respect for other players at the table. That says a lot about his character and who he is as a person. If you are new to this channel or poker in general, Daniel is the type of guy who should be your ambassador to the game. He's also written several awesome books throughout the years that serve as a wonderful introduction into the world of high stakes poker. You can't go wrong following him and learning from him. You will meet quite a few colorful characters in the fascinating world of Poker but Daniel is the gold standard from which all others are measured. Love you Dave!

  • I think you may be underestimating the psychological aspect of this session on this final hand. Teddy's been hit psychologically by Mikey revealing the Oreo tell. It's what goads him into challenging Mikey after he lost the first time, but the stack in front of Mikey by this hand shows that he's been steadily eroding Teddy's position. Teddy's taking risks, and they aren't turning out well for him. His constant table talk is his way of trying to break Mikey, and it isn't working. Even splashing the pot isn't working. Mikey's in total control and KGB is not. Therefore his betting isn't necessarily rational. I agree, he probably has pocket aces but it's also possible that he flopped a set of 10s and has convinced himself that Mikey is on a draw that he doesn't complete. Regardless, I don't think that you can expect rational betting from someone who, in the moment, isn't entirely rational.

  • Terrible take on the girlfriend. Mikey's last stint at poker saw them lose everything and he had to get a delivery job just so they could pay the rent. He made a deal with her that he wasn't going to gamble anymore. The fact that he decided to go behind her back and continue to gamble, regardless whether he won money or not, was incredibly selfish and destructive to their relationship. All he needed to do was come clean and tell her that he wanted to keep gambling and that they should break up so he didn't potentially ruin her life... AGAIN. Mikey is out there borrowing money from his professors because he lets Worm get him into it again! I enjoyed the breakdown of the final hand, but dang, what a bad take on Mikey's relationship. He is absolutely the asshole in that situation. If you're going to make a promise to someone and then decide you cannot keep it, bare minimum, you tell them about what you're doing so they can have a say in whether they want to remain in a relationship with you or not.

  • I agree that he was on a set, probably aces. One of the things that no one seems to comment on is that after Mike says he flopped the nut straight, KGB desperately looks at the flop again. It is as if he got so caught up in how good his hand was, and that he had an overpair that improved, that he missed that there was a straight on the board at the flop. Probably because he was tilted and tired from playing all night. I've been there... So focused on how strong your hand is you lose sight of what might be able to beat you. I mean, it is head's up. A set of aces is very strong. And if Mike had been folding and checking all night, it's likely that KGB thought he was playing tighter than he was, so 8-9 was less likely. Mike laid down a wheel when he hit it in the blind, which reinforces KGB thinking Mike was playing tight. Even if KGB thought he was on something like 9-10 suited then he'd have Mike on top pair drawing to a straight, which never would have improved... and if KGB had AA he would have been ahead from the flop and thought he was in the clear.

  • It's also a callback to earlier in the film where he's talking to Petra and watching an old World Series of poker video, he beats KGB the exact same way his hero Johnny Chan wins "Flops the nut straight and has the discipline to wait him out." Symbolizes Mike's game growing and evolving, signaling to himself that he's ready to take on greater challenges.
