I would've checked. Would ask what is he calling down with in a 4bet pot? Wouldn't put him on TT. But maybe QQ+, AQ+ (Maybe down to ATs) But if he's hasn't gotten out of line all night it much be a strong range. A comes out I would just check an expect to see AK, AQs, AA,KK.
@@LouisTorrespokeroptimal play would be to check.. Koon has to question why Kalas kept check calling him all the way till the river. It could only mean he has AA or KK or QQ or JJ.. he probably wouldn’t call the 4bet with A10s. But maybe with AKs. But if he had AKs, he would check call the double barrel of Koon with no flush draw. So, it’s obvious he has a high pocket pair. Now Koon is 50% right that even pocket Tens wouldn’t call a 4bet half the time (especially someone tight).. so his bluff attempts were okay till the turn. But after he rivers an Ace, he has enough equity for a showdown which he should have opted for with a check.. Because there is a possibility that kalas was playing with pocket Aces himself.
@@krisamagus1 I’m aware, just prefer when they simply use a normal sized chips with higher denominations like those used in the Million Dollar Game on Hustler Casino Live.
This is from 2018, Triton have gotten rid of the plates and everything is regular chip sized now thankfully. I don't think the players liked them much either
Not entirely sure if the turn bet achieve too much. Kalas's 3bet oop and 4bet call make his range quite transparent, which consists with a lot of medium pairs. Can also rule out a lot of smaller pairs too when he called the flop. If Koon put Kalas on 9s 10s Js Qs, then he should realize kalas is probably not folding to a turn bet on a relatively clean turn, which coincidentally favors kalas range too.
I actually like the 200K bet option as that makes the JJ-KK in Kane’s range most likely to call and very few players will check jam this River as a bluff here so you can easily fold to that play.
I think Koon played the hand very good ... he knew almost for sure that kalas cannot have aces , 1. cause he blocked 1 ace and 2. cause Kalas may 5 bet preflop with them and rarely just call...he played the hand like Aces and Kalas top range is KK and bottom JJ...they both had polarized ranges but what surprised me the most was how quickly he called on the river (i know he only lose in that spot from Aces but still Koon played like he had aces) long story short 😅 if Koon put Kalas on JJ , QQ or KK the most of the time he was very right to shove the river...i'm not a great player but this is my opinion
So if he put him on jj-kk, why push it? Just check and win the pot. Jj-kk never call this spot because opponent will have AK a lot of the time. So its 100% check, because you never make the better hands fold and never getting called by worse
@@MrVeenrok i don t think KK is an easy fold in that spot cause you still beat a lot of hands...you block AK a lot of time and you lose of all AXs but how many hands with AXs will bet the flop and the turn with that deep stack? I think AXs will check the turn a lot of time so what remains ? QQ , JJ , 99 , 88 and even 44 that Koon may had and played all the same so KK is not an easy fold and Koon has decide to bluff from the beginning with AQo and he played the hand like a big one and i think he shoved any card on the river except K or J and maybe a Q(even Kalas may had AK in small percentege of time)...he took the story to the end and lost but it s not a bad play in my opinion..yes he might check but not 100%
A fish like me would check there on the end. I would have put my villain on worst a low pocket pair or a made set, also AK AQ suited is also possible. Wouldn't risk my remaining stake to find out. CHECK...nice hand...also experience with player would defo help in the decision at the end...dude came along all the way...i'm trying to make a move with no realized equity until the end hitting an A...nah, check..nice hand.
"I am gonna presume it is good..." @16:52 is not what I was expecting at that point. I was expecting an analysis. Everybody makes mistakes even the best players in the world.
Koon had a good feel where he was in the hand, until the turn, it was a misread, but he took a chance and tried to push him off an overpair. Ace was bad luck on river, can't see myself ever putting in that kind of raise on a pair after the hand played the way it did. I feel that he should have checked the river, me personally, would have been extremely fearful of a set after being called twice after raising with squadoosh..lol against another hand it prolly would have worked but like I said he had put his opponent on an over pair or possibly a suited ace and moon was obviously DEAD WRONG
I think a check on the river is better. We dont get value from his pocket pairs and we only get called by hands that are better. If the river wasn't and ace I see the merrit in bluffing trying to rep AA,KK,QQ
What does thr solver say about betting so small on the river. Jason is giving himself the right price on the tirn to hit an ace or queen. Screams weakness to me.
So, as far as i understood from this video, this guy Koon is an exceptionally good poker player with a lion’s heart, but just got unlucky. Played the hand near perfect.
I got about 3 minutes into this before I pulled up Forbes real time billionaire list and compiled some people that could and maybe would play a 2 million 4 million game :0. Billion dollar buy in- I thought of a few off the top some would be hard pressed on dollars but could-- Musk, Trump, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Cuban, MJ, maybe that Saverin guy that is friends with Zuck (not). Who else would ppl think would be a wild good in a .0001% er game?
Its it tough to call this with set of 10 after the river is and Ace? Because that can give koon a set of Ace. Also it's possible he have aces because is c betting all the way.
@@xikefocus but how after ace river won't you think he might be playing with aces all along? He was betting entire hand so does that not indicate a top pair like aces kings or queens?
@@AkshayDeoke it's entirely possible, true. But you can't just think about one specific hand your opponent could have; you have to consider the entire range of hands he shows up with on this river, given the action on previous streets. As the video shows, that range includes not only AA but hands like AK/AQ. There are far more combinations of AK and AQ than there are of AA, so it's an easy call with TT.
I can see why Dwan, Ivey and Koon want to play in these games with the Chinese billionaire fish. Phua & co. are terrible players, it must be nice to play with other peoples money
I say check w/ Jason's hand. I don't believe you'll get called by underprs after the A shows up. Marginal made hand, check, show it down. This is either correct or super nitty!
If YOU were Jason Koon, would you have checked or shoved on the river? 🤔
I am a weak player I would check and hope AQ is good

This is a relatable situation in a 2 million pot , happens to all of us
Am I the only one who hates the oversized chips and placards?
They look awful, and must be super awkward to play with
look, they represent huge sum of monies
@@krisamagus1 I’m aware, just prefer when they simply use a normal sized chips with higher denominations like those used in the Million Dollar Game on Hustler Casino Live.
Horrible looking, just get them oversized chips instead of those disgusting looking placards

Koon's face when he heard that quick call 😭
Also laughed my ass off :D :D
These are the stupidest chips I’ve ever seen.
Super ridiculous
10:45 anyone else notice Ivey scanning the table like a robot scanning for information? Guy really is a freak 😄
Only freak are you😂
Having river some showdown value, I think I would check in back and not put Kane all in.
That is why you are you, and JKoon is JKoon.
I would quit poker after seeing opponent tables QQ/JJ.

Kalas went crazy when won the pot, Omg checking the stack size like crazy who won his first ever pot xD What a fish he is.

On the turn, Koon one of 3 v possible hands Kalas has (TT-JJ-QQ) just got stronger and he still loses to the other two.
all night he check check check...he trapped me!
Flips Oreo stack over 🤬😬
Is this new ?
I posted it 4 days ago!
The punt is good! 🏈
I think a check on the river is better. We dont get value from his pocket pairs and we only get called by hands that are better. If the river wasn't and ace I see the merrit in bluffing trying to rep AA,KK,QQ
Kane Kalas is such a cool name
I think the river push is good for the red line. lol
Quickest call ever.
Nice hand.
The pot is very reasonably sized for top pair second kicker, also hard to imagine too many worse hands call a shove here. I'd check it back.
several thousands BB pot - the pot is very reasonably sized for top pair second kicker 😂
Always painful to shove and get snap called.
the A on the river card flip was smooth
huh?
Scarf guy has very strange energy.
It’s somewhat close between shove and check back I think. Probably check back. You’re never betting 200k
🎉
Shoves looks like value, but is the villain calling this 3rd with queens on this spot? I guess it might be a check cuz of the calling range
who did Koon piss off for the bad bad beat in this hand, 10 on the turn or the Ace on the river dont know which was worse
What does thr solver say about betting so small on the river. Jason is giving himself the right price on the tirn to hit an ace or queen. Screams weakness to me.
Check, would Kalas call with a hand Koon beats,like JJ? Not likely.
Next blog you do, please lower the pitch of your voice ,its destroys my eardrums
sick hand
stop to play the Moderator on that corner on the right screen is just🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Was that a bluff or value jam? Your really not getting called by worse there IMO.
Stop these harrisment adds
check-call
