It still blows my mind that Richey made that call. Both of his opponents are pretty much telling him that he's loosing but all he's thinking is " bUt mY kIngS..."
He said on 2 Plus 2 afterwards that he knew shortstack Hellmuth had Aces. He still profits if he beats Shak. But I agree, he should have paid attention to Shak’s antics.
what do you expect? He was one of the biggest OG bumhunters ever. you can't learn to fold kings when you spend all your time instantly sitting out when the fun player busts.
My predictions for the final 5 (in order) #5: Romanello folds Jacks Full (2008) #4: Jonathan Duhamel eliminates Matt Affleck (2010) #3: Doyle Brunson wins with his favorite 10-2 (1977) #2: Scotty Ngyuen 'you call its gonna be all over baby' (1998) #1: Chris Moneymaker bluffs Sam Farha heads up (2003)
#8 so obvious that at least one of them have AA how does Richey call lol. A bit of a tell when the two other people who are all in are high fiving and dancing.
@@StatsRob1975 and we would have been spared of this legendary hand! that camera shot of Cheong dropping his head down with the bewildered crowd going crazy in the background has stuck with me forever :)
Hellmuth and Shak basically said they had AA’s. They danced like they had AA’s. They cringed the celebration like they had AA’s. And that guy still called.
Predicting top 5 hands: - Joe Cada 22 vs QQ - Brandon Cantu 88 (pump fake) -Moneymaker bluff on Farha - Affleck aces loss - Scotty Nguyen J9 "call and its gonna ve all over baby"
#8 Hellmuth/Shak/Richey has zero business being in the top 10, lol. Also, hand #7 Weinman/Aguilera/Payne is a 💯 perfect example of luck always playing a huge part in winning the Main Event cos if that jack never came Weinman would have been forgotten forever as a nobody who made a deep run and cashed as opposed to being remembered for all time as World Champion of the WSOP.
Agreed. I think i remember an interview with Raymer back in the day basically saying he won the main event while never being all in and behind and it was noted as being unheard of. Winning flips + being on the right side of coolers + sucking out when required = tournament success
Moneymaker bluffs Sam has to be #1. I don’t care what generation or era you were born but everyone that knows poker, remember that iconic hand that practically sealed the win.
Whoever put that Stu Ungar hand at #6, needs their head examined. Poker is more than just what cards are dealt, the reactions, and the bad beats or rarity of hands. It goes beyond that. Here's some things to consider with the Stu Ungar hand: -Stu had won his first 2 WSOP titles in his FIRST TWO ATTEMPTS -Stu had a serious drug and alcohol problem at the time of this hand and was playing for his daughter to be proud of him and was being staked by a rich guy bc Stu was dead broke and living in a hotel, basically on death's door -Stu hadn't played poker in over a decade -Stu entered with the stake, only his third time EVERY ENTERING the WSOP. -During breaks at this event, due to it being outside, Stu was vomiting in the bathrooms and had to be helped back to his chair for the final session. You can even see in this event how white his skin is. He's wearing shades bc he wanted to hide his eyes from the crowds bc they were so sunken and bloodshot -Stu won this one, 3/3 in the main event, for his daughter but only lasted a few months more until he was found dead in his hotel room How you can take someone who is 100% WSOP Main Event win rate and even came back and did it while nearly dead, broke, and emotionally trying to make his only family proud and put his last hand as #6 is beyond me. There is no doubt that if Stu could've maintained sobriety he would've won 5 or more Main Events, even with the larger crowds.
Stu hadn't played poker in a decade? Like he would take that much time away from the tables! His famous hand with Mansour Matloubi happened at the 1992 WSOP so you're immediately wrong. It wasn't his third time EVER entering the WSOP either. He probably would have won the main event 4 times but he overdosed in 1990 and had to be blinded out. He wore those glasses because his nose caved in from using cocaine so much over his life. Accurate post otherwise!
Nguyen '98, Moneymaker '03, Duhamel '10 surely have to be three of the last hands; what are the other two? 🤔 Guessing they're not including WSOPE, otherwise B. Shulman '09 would have to be the fourth
@@timhefner4056When you’re all-in with AA, you’d rather be heads up because chances of winning the hand increase significantly without the third actor in the hand. So they both wanted him to fold. It’s poor etiquette of course, but to be expected with money involved when there’s no meaningful consequence for the angle.
I would think that the crowd and Hellmuth/Shak would tell Richey they had rockets. I guess with KK you still have to call and see if you can get lucky.
They talk about bad form by shak and phil...true I agree. As hard as it is to fold KK, with the way they played it and acted so hyped....you gotta throw em away, he learned that lesson I think
When Stu pushed his chips in and said raise I feel like that should just be considered a call. Because he pushed chips before saying raise. Also how about his string bet raise. How many times does he go back to his stack and push more chips forward
This was 1997. Rules were different, what Stu did was the normal raising action back then. What you said though is exactly why the rules were eventually changed.
Both told every one they had AA hoping no one would call. Helminth by telling everyone " 45 seconds to call" letting the following player know his hand. The chicken dancing and saying " zi got it I got it" letting others know her hand.. 9:089:08 The kk guy might have figured since they both have aa I might flop a set and they cant. Just despicable play from her and helminth. Haven't seen it all yet but I hope kk flops a set.
4:59 - Cheong didn't mess around or take up anyone else's time... love his play with bullets. I know he lost, but with his playing style and personality.... he can 'c__ in my a__ ' any day!!!
So sad about Stu, he wins the main event and it was the next year the WSOP started really growing and growing. Imagine if his own bad habits hadn't killed him what he could've done.
How did people play before This candio hands bad raise then calls reraise than reraises flop calls all in brhind and gets lucky Feel sorry for Joseph Feels like i would get far on event in that years and crush final table with oponents like this
The way Hellmuth and Shak acted during the 3 way all in is cringeworthy
Beth Shak is so hot
And a bad call by KK. They should have costed themselves his chips.
She seems to be intoxicated
Easy fold with the kings with their antics
You could have just said "The way Hellmuth reacted was cringeworthy." No need to narrow that statement down to a single example
Pro Poker Player Tip: When an opponent is yelling they have it and is celebrating after being all in with Hellmuth... fold.
He probably yolo'd and figured he scoops if a King hits the board
@@bentonja668 Another pro tip: don't yolo your stack away in the Main Event.
@@Jwerp616both your comments got me 😂😂
@@Jwerp616another pro tip: don't yolo hip hop and R &B dancing 😎😎😎😎😎😎
How can Richey still call. How bad you want to be? Unbelievable that they have 3k to play a poker tournament
It still blows my mind that Richey made that call. Both of his opponents are pretty much telling him that he's loosing but all he's thinking is " bUt mY kIngS..."
He said on 2 Plus 2 afterwards that he knew shortstack Hellmuth had Aces. He still profits if he beats Shak.

@@JoeDiegohe puts Hellmuth on Aces but not Shak? I call 🧢
It's 'losing', lol
#8 lame doesn’t deserve to be here
Just like you don’t deserve to be a pro but you just keep luck boxing you way along. 🤣
They need Phil in a certain number of these for views

All these seem viable but seeing as they’ve used Phil in a handful of pots because of his talking/antics, we can still see “I can dodge bullets baby”
Screw Doyle you forgot KK vs KK vs manion AA on ft bubble
Spot on guesses, I predict your #2 and #4 to be the top 2
@@RyanDepauloDegenerateGambler That's been shown already
@@RyanDepauloDegenerateGamblercould be wrong but I think that hand has already been featured. I would agree that it should have been higher.
a million dollar buy in, A-A vs. A-A and you lose...........it does NOT get any worse than that in the world of gambling.
What about $1,000,001 tourney?
#8 so obvious that at least one of them have AA how does Richey call lol. A bit of a tell when the two other people who are all in are high fiving and dancing.
awful call, the dancing like shes already won the hand should of given her hand away
She literally tells her husband she has Aces and the guy still calls with KK.

do you have a link to the cantu hand? I can’t find it anywhere
5:01 my face when the dump is just a little too spicy from last nights salsa LOL
No 8 shouldn't even be top 50
Its because its an unusual hand, double pocket AA vs KK, but i agree, has no business on this list
8 is literally legendary lol
WOP Top 100 Coolers, Suckouts and Tournament winning hands.
Right. "Top hands where someone makes a bad call and gets a 4% hand to win"
several main event champs made awful punts and got really lucky: moneymaker, duhamel, weinman all spring to mind,
You gotta be lucky to win a 5000+ player tournament. That's why all the crushers now play high rollers against the same 100 person player pool.

5. Henry Tran vs Alcober
4. Tuna Lund vs Matloubi
3. Scotty Nguyen vs McBride
2. Duhamel vs Affleck
1. Moneymaker vs Farha
There was way too much talking in the number 8 hand while KK was still thinking
This has been an entertaining series. I'm surprised Attenborough vs Dobric wasn't shown in this list.

I've never seen an easier time to fold KK
10:12 my man got left hanging
N* 8 at 6:54 is the best hand of all time to me, never laughed so hard in poker
King on the river would have made it legendary
Lost with Aces against Aces twice in my life. Worst was when it happened on my birthday, on the bubble.
I bubbled a few years ago with AA v KK v KK all-in preflop. Flop AQ10 river J. Poker can be so brutal sometimes!

Ungar would smash all the coke off the table
What was so special about #8? It's an interesting hand, but why is it ranked so high?
It's an iconic Hellmuth outburst
10:08 Hellmuth getting left hanging on that high five was the greatest moment in poker history
AA vs AA vs KK all in is crazy, as well as all the antics and the horrific call by KK.
Most unprofessional poker I've seen. Idiots saying they have it and jumping around with another player left to act.

Yeah but it would have been so funny to watch.@cwolf208

For #7 - ‘Weinman’ didn’t even use his one time says the commentator incredulously!!! Which means he still has his one time !! ;)
I dunno, I think the royal over quads in the last post beats all of these for wowness.
I would probably retire from poker if I lost aces vs aces at a 1 million dollar buy in event, at least temporarily

This was 1997. Rules were different, what Stu did was the normal raising action back then.

It’s borderline but that’s a raise all day. Usually as long as you announce raise before you release anything or start cutting chips, your fine.
First time I saw that Candio hand had me HEATED
This is more like the Top 100 Board Runouts
😮wow and OUCH FOR Drinan
Stu Unger hand was the only one that belonged here. A bunch from that last video were better.
The more I watch this series the more I realize Lefty laying that down was surely the Top Hand of All Time
Can’t believe the Helmuth vs Wiggins hand didn’t make the top 10.
Would've been the most talked about King ever if Richey hit a set lol

nice string raise
6:47 that’s why you never play the aces like that.😂😂😂
#9 was crazy
6:11 Honestly Candio calling all in with that hand is just so super wrong.
How did he not fold those kings
Jennifer harmen vs Corey (?) queens full vs straight flush
The serious look these folks give when they have Aces, bruuh, tom dwan would smoke em back in the days
we are near to top 5
To be fair, he did tell him to save his money, he couldn’t win every pot.
#7 is the strangest one for me. 3 cooler hands dealt but honestly nothing memorable or special happened here. Maybe it deserves 80-100 but #7? No way.
How is it an all time hand when someone makes a bad call going all in with 2 pair and just gets lucky on the river?
That Italian celebration was a little zesty
do you forget that quickly what you have in your hand?
Need more Payne
I wonder how many bracelets Stew Unger would’ve got if you lived long life
I'd like to live in a universe where Richey hits his king.
Candio with the worst call in WSOP history. Bailed out
I didn't know Zack Morris plays poker.
So sad about Stu, he wins the main event and it was the next year the WSOP started really growing and growing. Imagine if his own bad habits hadn't killed him what he could've done.
I'd like to say on behalf of all Italians that we don't usually sound like Mickey Mouse
Top hands? Calling with 75s all-in after re-raise? Oh, yea, get it.
Candio .....
Richey worst call off ever with KK. Easiest fold in history. One of those two clowns obv has aces
Why did #10 not cash?
Katz is a criminal lending huge interesr college loans to innocent families. He should be in jail😢😢😢😢
Filipo condio played that hand worse than anyone in the history of poker 😂
If that shak lady is related or married to Dan shak or whatever his name is it is very stupidly fitting.
How did people play before
This candio hands bad raise then calls reraise than reraises flop calls all in brhind and gets lucky
Feel sorry for Joseph
Feels like i would get far on event in that years and crush final table with oponents like this
Number 8. Why is that in here. If a king came, then it could be top 50
Money maker cooler phil ivey or moneymaker buffing farha will be number 1
Duhamel top 1 with jj

#8 is more of a 90-100 range. Not top 10 lol
