@@johnbayle7561 The new season features many different line-ups.
@@johnbayle7561 All American players cause of the covid restrictions
is it weekly, half a year to air them all?
Gabe should go down as the GOAT in poker commentary. His humor combined with his understanding of the game really is one of a kind.
Agreed, he's excellent.
I love gabe, from a comical stand point. When it comes to explaining hands there are much better choices. For this time period in poker though it was just about perfect. The game has advanced way past his understanding now though and he couldn’t hang in today’s game. Much respect to gabe and his work though!!
@@brucemilnes7773 Gabe and Lex would be a decent pairing.
Gabe and Mike Sexton would have been legendary
@@matthewwalker1803 how about Gabe and Stapes???
That last hand... I've watched it so many times and each time I hope Ivey calls lol
Phil C lmao felt that
Same with me. Because I think that this hand could be even more impressive than hand that amazing between Pavel and Isildur, if Ivey calls.
If Ivey called there it goes down as the best call in NL cash history. I’m convinced, for the amount of money, and the situation, it would simply be babe Ruth’s called shot. The best.
@@scottlarrabee9892 ivey wishing he shoved on the flop with his gut shot/nut flush draw 🤣 1 of my all time favourite hands in poker.
LOL so true! But he never does :(
"Dwan looks worse" is one of THE best moments of poker commentary ever
That whole sequence has to be the most legendary poker commentary of all time. It being interrupted with the table talk about Eli looking asleep and Ivey flashing the big smile about it is the cherry on top.
😂😂😂
10:40 I love Kaplan Kaplan: “mike’s probably going to continue his slow play” Mike: Raises Kaplan: And just like I said he raises to 45 thousand”
Jason Mercier looks like a guy that sells adderall outside of your local highschool.
Wait, he isn't?
100%
Hahahahahahahahahahaha
he looks like he sells adderall at the sunnyvale trailer park
He’s Jesse from breaking bad
"Even Phil Laak and Antonio are quiet".... You can't expect Phil Laak to be quiet forever... lol, that killed me. Gabe should do all poker commentary,
One of his funniest ones was in the poker world championship when Tony G and Ralp Perry were playing. A south African guy said "it's not much but I'm going all in" Gabe replied "the first time he used that line was on his honeymoon" Gabe is the GOAT and I hope the rumours are right that him and Norm are hosting
@@333Mrhunter Sadly, it will be AJ Benza and Nick Schulman who are both great. But I miss Gabe.
"Tom Dwan is starting to gulp now" That line kills me every time for some reason.
🤣🤣 same here. And then followed by "the excitement is overwhelming to Eli" as hes slumped in his seat asleep.Gabe is the best!!
The fun fact is that Tom was gulping indeed.
the abrupt "DWAN LOOKS WORSE" from gabe during the last hand is so damn funny
I really like listening to Gabe
Yea u can hear the table talk because he doesn’t have much knowledge to even talk about poker
@@zorskins i like gabe too but tournament winnings dont mean anything because they dont count buyins. hes probably a net loser
@@liveslowlivesimple so winning that kind of money in tournaments must be easy
@@sneakysubspodcast Have you lost the plot mate?
@@zorskins there are so many people talking shit. It's sadly their destiny- don't make it yours to react!
the fact that ivey was even thinking about calling there is really something, he got a sixth senth
Against Doyle, Daniel, Esfendiari he would not even consider, but he smelled it was Dwan. And he was right. I wonder if Tom gets away with this in upcoming Season 8 :)
Yea it's called big time gambler on free rolled money lol. The hand itself makes no sense considering he has the card Dwan should be bluffing with..
@@andrzejkondracki9796 when is the next high stakes poker starting?
This is the beauty of durrrrr he put people in spots where they could look stupid and therefore don’t want to. It’s an ego thing and he is incredible at exploiting it just ask Bob Safai
@@UKMessi1 next week brothe r
I've watched this video several times, and I'm still amazed there are hardly any comments on lex's call with ducks of an almost pot-sized bluff by doyle. that's a work of genius!
Hero call
Have you seen how many pots Lex has lost because of calls like that?
Was a bad bet by Doyle. Very hard for him to have a 5 there
@@paulg6274 but flatting with bottom pair on a 4 str8 board is still crazy!
@@ian625 Right it seems crazy but bottom pair is actually about the same as top pair here cause Doyle has a straight or nothing.
Durrr is just an absolute genius, how can you remain that still and have the stones to bet on every street. Simply brilliant
Wish Ivey called though imagine that hero call with A6
Wonder if this happened before or after the straight over wheel bad beat by durr over I've for like 1.1 million or something
Diamond nuts 💎 diamond 💎
How much is that, and how much do you have left? Disgusting questions when you have 9 high on the riv
Like a Boss
If I had the same hand and played this line I'd start hyperventilating after those abhorrent questions
Stop saying riv
I wouldn't answer.
@@Spinosaurus4ever That’s the right answer.
The A6 vs 98 hand will go down as the best hand ever televised. Very tough to beat. Poker at its best
no the hell it will not many other way more crazy hands
@@ClassicMist360 Agree. There were a couple at a WSOP event back in the 00's. There was this poker player whose nickname was "Sick Call". And he made some crazy calls. Pretty sure he made a Jack High call and won. It was insane.
@@surindersingh724 but this is a cash game where they bet hundreds of thousands with millions pots. Id say it’s quite different.
"Durr you are a very interesting human. I'm glad to be in your orbit"
i feel this harder in 2020 than i did back then
@@xpwngasmxfan1995 you feel it harder?
Phil knew he was bluffing!! I im all in with this fact!!!
@@marsbars6596 you are right. but he can only beat complete air. he thought dwan might has a small pair or something.
An unforgettable and truly honorable compliment from Phil
This was the best season, Gabe all by himself with that amazing lineup. Gonna be hard to top!!
Wow at the very last seconds of the video, Ivey knew dwan was bluffing, the levelling is real
Ivey seems like he is emotionally flat lined in high stress moments. Never see an ounce of pressure on him. Pretty amazing.
''Well You'd have had me convinced Jason, but i'm not Phil Ivey'' Haha great commentary as always and what a play by Ivey.
I mean why would you go all in just like that on that board. Probably thats what Ivey thought.
That fist hand is pretty sick doyle was like wtf?
15:24 in my opinion one of best televised poker hands ever, amazing really
Imagine getting a bluff sized up that long by Ivey
Honestly i couldnt even breathe was so scary if i was dwan but i think ivey lost some concentration with the table talk but still hell of a call if he did
I'll fucking shit myself
I'd break... just the thought of bluffing Ivey is.terrifying 😂
Tom Dwan legend started when he was able to pull the bluff off against Ivey!
classic season of HP... ivey and dwan murdered this session
If Phil Ivey makes that call there would be no more war no pandemic just peace in the world! The world would have to stop and bow to the genious of this man!
but he fold..
You can see Phil’s reaction in the end he knew it was a bluff and he should have called. Crazy
Dmn Ivey still hasnt called.. :(
I'm still waiting
At 21:48 he was right about to call, but then he thought “but it’s Durrr” 😂
It would have been a great call. But when the bet started, the flop had 3 cards that could have been a top pair against the 6s you are getting in the river. Ending in a big bet. So, the most rational thing to do was to fold. Watching it from the outside, knowing what the other guy has, yeah feels like “how da f...he doesn’t call!!”, but playing with that amount of money, try to win with a pair of 6 is a low chance with a flop with way higher cards.
I wish Ivey called Brad booth's hand slighty more though.
Ihate that they cut of Gabe's last words when he said:"something s wrong with his eyes , maybe he didn't see the cards he had".
thats right,i forgot that
"I wish I just waited for Aces" yeah story of my life
Everytime I watch the Dwan-Ivey hand I scream "CALL!!!" at my monitor knowing he never will... such a sick hand
Legend has it, Phil is still contemplating the hero call...
In my humble opinion, if Ivey called that would have been the greatest hand of all time.
Nah. Dwan over shoving the pot and ivey calling would have been the best hand of all time. Would’ve been interesting if elezra’s dose off caused Ivey to just say fuck it and call. It looked like Ivey was looking for any sign to call there but it didn’t help he blocked all the draws with diamonds ♦️ and the inside straight draw. It really looked like dwan could’ve had J9 suited of possible diamonds and he was value betting the whole way. Sucks Ivey didn’t make his hand.
He can't call in this situation with a pair of sixs
????? but he fold..
The only player in the history of Texas hold ‘em poker who’s EVER been able to bluff Phil Ivey off of HUGE cash game pots.... his name is DURRR.... lol 😂
sure.. he got spanked by the weakest players like brad booth
Brad Booth, Phil Ivey Season 3, High Stakes Poker
LOL people still talking about Yukon Brad, where dafuq is he now 😅😅😅😂😂😂
Don’t bluff the guy in red
"Don't bluff the guy in red" LMAO
Ivey was so close to calling that A6.. you know his gut told him to.. I love durrrr but I wish Ivey made that call. The fact he was contemplating it for so long just shows you inuitive a poker mind he is .. bravo
Just quietly, that's a pretty amazing call by Lex! Doyle generally plays pretty tight. He's not all loosey goosey, on his phone or eating a sandwich very often....
You can tell at 22:33 Negreanu pointing at Elezra sleeping was the moment Ivey broke his concentration contemplating a call. If he wasnt interrupted he probably would’ve called.
Saying 'probably' is a bit of a stretch and pure speculation. There's no information that points to 'probably' calling
@@nardinit yea you right its just a guess so relax
@@callmedoomsday Again baseless assumption, no part of my comment suggests I'm not relaxed...
@@nardinit well then you should relax more lol
@@callmedoomsday Lol what a moron
I like Gus' honest reaction in the second hand. Just frustrated with himself.
He played that hand very badly
Even without Ivey calling, that last hand is still the single greatest hand ever played in televised poker history, imo. The dynamics at the table, Gabe’s commentary, the way you could see the gears turning in Dwan and Ivey’s heads, and the sheer amount of $ at stake. I don’t know if that hand will ever be topped.
Dwan is the bluff GOAT hands down
love the players, love the commentator, love this season
21:49 Ivey was about to call, then he thought “but it’s durrr” 😂😂
Gabe is my favorite commentator. I love his old school references. I’m like no way anyone under 40 gets these hilarious analogies. He is hilarious.
Lotta good players in this video, but the true legends = Gabe & AJ God I miss those guys! Good banter and great analysis.
Negreanu is more legend than them.
Season six was my life during my teenage years. Great times
Dwan masterpiece. Huge Bluff!😊
High Stakes Poker seasons were GOAT
Jason Mercier trying to be like his hero Brad Booth
What ever happened to Booth.. lol
@@savagerandy8244 busto and owes a bunch of people $. went missing recently for a bit but OK now.
Great hands! Every single one of em
I just want to add another layer of thought to that last hand. That bluffcatcher call is superhard because Durrr might be bluffing with the best hand there also. And that is what Ivey doesn't want to see the most. He felt like he has read on Durr and it was right, but there are many 10J, JQ hands that Tom can bluff there on river while still played the same on other streets.
Ya Ivey thinks he probably has the J blocker and is bluffing with the best hand like you said. QJ, J10, 109 etc. Or even A10. I think Ivey snaps him off with AQ. Because he knows Dwan will blast off with any QJ or J10 or maybe 109 in that spot.
Agree completely with both
No Eli distracted him and took him out of his killer instinct
Lex calling turn of 20k bet and river for 60k against Doyle with bottom pair of 2's is lengendary. Maybe the greatest or donkeyest calls I have ever seen in thousands of hours of watching poker.
I have watched Lex for a while and he has an insane gameplay that I dont understand personally. He is very very loose but it always makes sense.
Esp with a tight player like Doyle Brunson
Ive seen Lex calling and losing with middle pairs against the nuts so many times that he had to hit that one legendary hand 1 time. :p
Young lex was a beast, always so aggressive and making sick plays
that was one of my fav hero calls ever in hand 1, to win with a pair of 2's is the ultimate!!!!
Young lex was sickk
Nice cast, nice hands !
Some of the best poker players in the world at these tables. Ivey might be the GOAT
Tom Dwan "I might of had the 2,3 of Clubs or spades" Checks back and sees he threw a 9 and 8 and 1 was red 😂😂
Holy shit was he that off with his cards? I hadn’t realize that. It makes the shit even funnier.
@@mayanaztec6440 pretty sure he was saying it as a joke to mess with Daniel. Cuz the 2 of clubs hit on the River and Daniel said “2-3 of clubs huh?” And Dwan said sorry.
@@melelli22 who knows but I found it funny. I was a big fan of these episodes when they first came out years ago.
@@mayanaztec6440 if I remember right I watched the whole thing and he did have dark 23 the Hand before the Hand being played.I think it was spades tho anyway not clubs but its been to long ago so Im not sure about the suits
@@schuschnix5261 I think you’re right. You can hear Tom Dwan actually say something like he might pf had it the hand before. Regardless, those were some great episodes.
These hands were so well-played…. the guys just kept one-upping each other 👏🏼
And this is why you'll find me at the 1/2 cent micro
Phil Ivey is a sick human. Wow
"even phil laak and antonio are quiet" haha great comment
What a call it would have been! Ivey was so close to making it!
DUrr claiming he folded 32c then the 2 immediately hitting is so brutal
“He called with the ducks 🦆 “ lol literally fell out of my seat 😂
Dwan is the master of bet size
That second hand was payback for Daniel on Gus after that insane cooler in season 2. For those wondering it was a $600,000+ pot where Daniel flopped a set of 6’s over Gus’s set of 5’s and Gus turned quads which also gave Daniel a full boat. It’s on the best hands of High Stakes Poker season 2 on this channel.
Cut out one of the best parts from last hand, when Gabe goes "maybe there is something wrong with his eyes, maybe he didnt see what he had" in the end :P
Daniel Negranu is probably the nicest Poker Player ever. He is always polite and friendly, no matter if he wins or loses. I bet he is a great buddy to hang around with.
Hes a fake nice guy
🅰️ The personalities at that table made the final 5 minutes of this video _SO ENJOYABLE TO WATCH_ ❗️❗️❗️ 🅱️ *What did Daniel put them both on❓❓❓* 🤷🏼♂️
this session was crazy
The commentary at 0:35 is gold 😂💀
"Tom Dwan is starting to _gulp_ now" 🤣
That clip of Daniel losing twice at 15:13....... I can imagine the way he wanted to react in the recent stream where he's kicking the air hahaha
Everything you do at the poker table conveys information.
I think that Ivey was on the way to call it, but Eli Elezra´s sleep accident didn´t help him, cause he kinda lost his way. But still, even thinking about calling this shows, how amazingly good player he is. And what a awesome, gutsy play by Durrrr!. Two of the absolute legends of this game.
He spent like 15 mins thinking about it so plenty of time.
Tom dwan has some diamond nads 💎 💎
Ivy playing for hundreds of thousands and still laughs n having a good time
Dwan ist Top Poker Spieler und Schauspieler auch😃😃
On the last hand, with Dwan's big turn bet, Ivey should have either folded his draw (which I would have done), or re-raised Dwan with a semi-bluff. However, I think that just calling was the poorest choice there, against a very aggressive player in Dwan.
Young Tom was a real cash game player
"I think I had the deuce three of clubs" 10 min earlier peels 98 off
the reason Ivey called Mercier is strictly because of bet size. Mercier simply got the sizing wrong and Ivey caught up on that. Truly a remarkable player that in 2010 played what most people are unable to play even now in 2021. Ivey is one of few that have a clear case of GOAT status.
What was wrong with the sizing? Half pot on the flop? Then all in?
In that Durr vs Ivey hand i wish Eli didn’t look like he was falling asleep and them start talking and breaking his concentration and feeling like he was taking to long because I really feel like Ivy would have called him had he just focused on it longer right after they said that you can tell he just gave it up in his mind
@@badboistilezy Yea these shows are *heavily* edited for time.
I just love the chips
Nice!!!
Eli: He call with the ducks😂 Eli: Welcome to the Iveys world🤣🤌
Tom Dwan at his best this guy had iron balls at the table 🫡
The fact Phil Ivey spent so long contemplating the call on that last hand shows how much of a predator he is at the table he smells something is off
Laak: Durr, you're a very interesting human being and I'm glad to be in your orbit 🤣
Lex nice call
Although Daniel can be a littttle much at times, he is the best loser. What a great attitude. Still luv u d negs
Lex is sick. Unreal call
I wish PokerGo could upload the best wsop moments from like a decade ago again to youtube. Quads vs royal, mizrachi vs jarvis and funny hellmuth hands etc...
That quads versus royal flush was incredible.
Welcome to the ivey world Jason
Por que juegan mas cartas en el All-in?
This is gonna be the sickest call of all time.... man i wish he called
@@zorskins I got him at around tree fiddy
I wanted Ivy to call this SO BAD!!! I remember watching this when it came out
Prolly the only time I ever seen Dwan so damn nervous and sick to his stomach
Look at those bricks of money!! 😍
