It obviously was stupid of him to offer that deal, unless he just really liked David or felt badly for him. But if you make the difficult call with top 2 there, you don’t let the guy out of 600 for 43. You run it two or three times and maybe David gets a piece back. But from a poker perspective, it was terrible for himself to offer that.

He knew he was the big favorite to win, he just wanted to be a nice guy, nothing wrong with that.

This was the prime of my poker days. Grind it out at the home games and come home to watch HSP and Poker after Dark. All of these guys were so fun to watch and a great commentator on top of it. Plus the internet was just getting started too with Fulltilt and Pokerstars.
@@looper6394 no. Guy is/was a billionaire at this time. He knew DB was in over his head at 600k in that pot. 600k to Guy is lunch at mcds. 600k to DB is a 10th of his net worth
Negreanu said years later some guys did play with their entire bank roll in this game. I reckon you can tell by Benyamine's face that it was his actual life in that last pot.
He didnt play with all of his money because at this time benyamine already won millions but 600k would have hurt him a lot. Also he probably had 20 or 30 pc of his own money on the table. The only guy who played 100 pc on his own was guy . Even antonius and negreanu were probably staked. Okay jamie gold probably played 100 pc on his own cause who the f is stupid enough to stake him at this sick game vs the best at the time.
Remember those days watching it live? Man that was fun. Those greedy fks ruined everything with the online poker stealing. There was plenty to go around but of course greed always comes into play.
Guy Laliberté always looks like the dealer at the roulette table. He always has enough chips in his stack to cover the entire table plus their children's children
i liked that he bailed out benyamin, when realized that guy was sweating his balls off, when he realized he was about to lose with 66% all his stack lol. that was a pretty classy move.
something about Gabe Kaplan's voice just makes him the perfect poker announcer. like, it's not just his ridiculously thorough knowledge and experience of the game. it's not just the stupidly high quality of his casting skills. it's his voice, too. it just screams "poker!"
That last hand really touched my heart. Poker does makes us monster sometimes, willing to gamble at just anything. It's nice that people can empathise with others. Coz after all, no human is perfect.
I’m pretty certain Jamie Gold would get frequently get felted in a standard 1-3 game. The epitome of ‘just because someone plays a lot of poker, doesn’t mean they’re actually good at poker.’
Guy was a street performer at some point in his life. He still understand the value of money and what it represents for some people. He was there to have fun, not break lifes. Im not surprised he did offered that kind of break to Beyamine.
That last hand would have put me in tears if I was in his position. Just knowing that you could lose everything based on luck and there is no getting out of it. I am so glad he caught a brake because that could have been really sad.
I remember when this debuted on GSN on Mondays. My parents despised gambling so I couldn't watch the initial 8pm est debute so I had to wait till the rerun came on at 2am to watch it lol. And you would say why wouldn't I just tape it well they would see what I was taping and turn it off . Back 2006 there was no streaming or new shows on TH-cam. This show was so revolutionary at the time.
This is a tough one! We tried figuring out what defines pot size and if you look at the from how much a player won versus how big the pot was when they ended up all in you're going to end up with a very strange list. Which hand do you think was the "biggest pot?"
@@PokerGO Yeah but since the deal was made and the pot wasn't actually played through I think it's a much bigger stretch than when they run it multiple times. That being said, it was interesting to see again and I'm perfectly fine with it but I do see his point.
Apparently Benyamine was playing with his whole bank roll that day when he had A8s vs K5s of Guy, that's why he looked like he was about to lose everything
8:44 not optimal but it was a courageous bluff by Guy Laliberte and he deserves credit for having that much heart. If Doyle had any one pair hand that doesn't contain the nut flush draw he's out of there. We all know how nitty Doyle is.
Yeah, but when you are a billionaire it does make it easier to make those kind of bluffs. For everyone else at the table this is high stakes, for Guy, not really. He probably makes the amount of money in that pot every month.
@@tf368 $800,000 every other day? That comes out to over $140 Million per year. I knew he was rich, but I didn't think he was that rich. I thought he only had like 1 or 2 billion. He is right up there with Bill Gates then, at 140 million per year he must have close to 40 or 50 billion by now.
can someone explain the first clip to me, when they ran the pot, i don't understand how that works and how the j a player won when the 8 showed on the table
Patrick Antonius made an STRAIGHT on the TURN card ! while Jamie Gold had 3 OF A KIND. *They decided to run the RIVER card 3 times,* Jamie made an FULL HOUSE on 2 of those 3 RIVER cards, and on the last RIVER card, Partrick had an STRAIGHT, and Jamie (just) 3 OF A KIND.
Jamie’s a true definition of WEASEL ! Notice how he cried his way and begged Farha not to bet again , then vs Patric when Patrick had him beat with the straight , he was crying and asking him to deal the turn and river 3 times and Patrick was nice and agrees to run it 3 times , first deal Jamie won with full house and right away he started crying saying he should have ran it once only ! he’s a true WEASEL !
Farha plays 5-5-10 PLO at the poker club I go to in Houston. He's a totally different guy now, he gets all-in with bad hands and asks to run it twice, then yells at the dealers when he loses. I miss the old Sammy
@@professorunicron ive heard of that place. I live about 45 minutes out of Houston. Ive been wanting to try new poker clubs. Prime social, 52 social and paramount were the top 3 I was wanting to check out.
I only saw it once, and it was during a cash game at this poker club. I saw this young guy lose hundred of dollars every minute. He ended up going all in and the other guy (who had a flush off the flop) started to get mad. "What do you have" he asked the young guy. "Pocket 10's". He gave a long breathe and said they could run it 3 times. Instead of dealing just the river, they ran the whole set 3 times. I guess it's a way of giving someone their money back (and their dignity)
@@pabloplaysguitar but why? Why give someone a get out of jail free card in poker? There shouldnt be second chances, but if both players agree, I guess it's kinda common. Makes no sense to me, especially if I have the better hand.
@@scottlauren3145 I have no idea. I asked my friend about it, it's a lot more common with friends/people you play with a lot. I don't see the point in it either
@@scottlauren3145 If you have a better hand and run it more than once, yes you give your opponent more opportunities to suck out on you. But you also reduce your chance of getting sucked out completely. For example, if your opponent has 1 out after the turn, that's a 2% chance. It's probably not going to happen, but there is that 2% chance of you losing the entire pot. If you run the river 10 times instead, you still have about a 81% chance of winning the entire pot, and even if that 1 outer comes in 1 of the 10 rivers, you still won 90% of the pot.

What a gentleman Laliberte is. Letting beniamin take his money back.
That was super cool. He could tell he was really stressing that.
He big leagued him though, although if i got into a spot with those percentages id take my money back each time.
Benjamin should not have taken the deal. That's like stealing from someone. It's obvious that Laliberte doesn't know anything about poker.
