      I was watching it live and so was my mate. He said what do I think he has (this was when dwan was considering a call on the turn) and I said JJ or QQ. I changed my mind on the river to KK because he only seemed scared of a random 8x hand but didn’t play the hand like AA. So I was right then I was wrong haha

    • @lightningsoulde
      @lightningsoulde ปีที่แล้ว +14

      @@Tom-hn5hn had him on QQ the entire time, too. First of all his opponent has AK so less likely Tom has AA / KK. Then I don't think that Tom would call any of the bets with just JJ like he did. I think his cards were pretty much known at the table at this point. Which makes no difference as he was never raising or betting himself. Well played pair of QQ and great 3 barrel bluff of Wesley as well.

    Tom Dwan is an animal, and the fact so many people kind of write him off as old school and no longer one of the best cash poker players is so confusing. This guy puts himself in some of the most awkward spots imaginable, and consistently navigates them safely. I can't say he always makes the correct, consistent game theory optimal play (i'm very new to that, so to analyze positions there are smarter people than me), but he makes the right play more than he makes the wrong one, especially in the largest pots.

      noone can make consistent GTO play. Let alone in a TV show where you play half of your hands or look like a complete nit. Plus when you are playing for $millions it can get to you really, unless you are a robot. Don't make the mistake thinking these live games are played by GTO robots even if they are some of the best.

    Polk saw We's hand, and still looked at his own cards afterwards. So he figured there was a chance he still would have called. Kudos to Polk for saying he saw Wes's cards, but they both gave up information to the table.
    The one thing I love in all the "analysis" of the hand is people leaving out the possibility that Wes had QQ. I can't count the number of times I've seen K's and Q's go up against each other and one player winds up folding because he assumes the other has the bullets.
    You also can't 100% rule out from the pre-flop play that Wes didn't have 88. All of you have seen guys try to take down a big pot pre flop with a semi-bluff like that. Dwan called off the value of a house that Wes didn't have A's or K's or 8's.

      @OVR XPOSD yeah for sure. 100% kudos for being able to bluff 1.6 milly, he deserved the standing ovation that he got. But making the correct computer play is not ever going to work if you can't manage the human/emotional side of playing. Like the computer can bluff shove 15000Bb and be 100% indifferent. A human cannot bluff shove 1500bb/1.6 milly and be indifferent. He is going to feel the pressure of the situation

      It was the bet on the flop that didn't make sense,if Wesley had aces he would check the flop aswel to draw a bet from Tom on the turn.some call by Tom with the queen's though because a bet with Kings on the flop would have made sense on such a dry board

    • @kory6897
      @kory6897 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Not really. Doug wouldn't have tried to get him not to 3bet AA or KK. That's why Tom thought 87 or 97.. AA, KK wasn't in his range after dougs reaction.

    • @imadsyed9537
      @imadsyed9537 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @stp132
      @stp132 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you leave Doug’s reaction out it’s a simple 3 barrel. Most of the time that’s the classic out bluffer move crowned by the all in at the river. With AA you try to extract the most you can and protect your hand. So you leave the betting to the opponent and react to it.

  • @iliutacristian8322
    @iliutacristian8322 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    The fact that Doug had to check his hand to fold implies that Wesley didn't have AA, and possibly not KK, but let's assume only AA. The gravity of Doug's statement, 'I saw your cards,' rather than a casual warning like 'Be careful, dude,' suggests that Wesley held a strong hand, ruling out something like A8. The all-in move on the river couldn't have been with KK since running into AA is a risk. Therefore, the only plausible hand for Wesley is an AK bluff. I believe Tom had all the necessary information to make the not-so-difficult call; Doug essentially spoiled the hand by speaking.

    • @17.2Miles
      @17.2Miles 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      That's one way to look at it. I think this hand wouldn't have happened if Doug didn't see the cards. Wesley was trying to show off, or prove himself to Doug. Once Doug saw his cards the ego was going all the way.

  • @danneswe84

    Players usually do not expose their big hands such as AA or KK pre flop. That is why Tom ruled out those hands and mentioned that Wes could have 87s or 89s. It was a huge tell and Wes should not have gone for it especially after exposing his hand.
