The second tank was revenge for calling the clock on the first tank. 200%. He knew he had him beat. He knew he wasn't shoving. He knew polk was sitting there tortured. He wanted him to endure it.

I love the way Dwan so confidently explained himself to everyone who was questioning his tanking, was almost aggressive about it. No one knew why he tanked so long, i have no idea why he tanked so long, but he was confident there was a reason and kind of gave off the impression he knows something they do not, whether it was mind games or a genuine thought process idk, but i love to see DURRR back doing his thing and confusing people.
@@RonD108 In the interview later, Tom did explain about the tanking on the river. 1. He was pissed at Doug for calling the clock on the turn and decided to everything is fair game after that. 2. He wanted to see if Doug will call the clock again, as he believed Doug would never call the clock with certain hands. So by waiting, he can get extra information from Doug if Doug called the clock again.
Yea. If you watch Doug's review of this session, not only this hand, he does say "idk what Tom's doing" a lot. Lol. These "solver pros" hardly take into account live tells.
Tom has been defending his style of play since season 3 of Full Tilt Poker Million Dollar Cash Game and season 5 of High Stakes Poker. Almost 20 years later and people still have no clue as to what that style is. The man is a legend.
Nik Airball should have shut his mouth in this hand... he was basically saying that Doug was bluffing over and over in different ways without saying it
Tom could explain it a million ways these clowns will never understand the importance of that hand. They laugh an play their contract money lmao. Tom is Top 20 all time, he was never folding that hand only inducing more money into the pot.
Lmao, Tom torturing the entire table. The 🐐 knew what to say at the end of the hand too, keeping the mind games up. Crazy to see Tom’s evolution in the early days from online wiz to controlling every table he sits at.
VPIP doesn't mean much when you are gifted two of the three biggest pots of the night. Dwan played great, but he was getting hit with the deck at the right times. One session is too short to label one player the goat.
At 7:55 Tom says “are you gonna call clock again” smiling. He knew he had him and wanted him to sit there for a while with a $420,000 bleff. Tom so good.
He Probably was legit thinking if Doug could have 76 or k6 for the first 4 mins, but was probably going to keep tanking after he made his mind up until the clock was called again for the LULZ
@@iknewiwould exactly, he was thinking if doug had that, he would all in to get max value. but he didnt commit to that thought and just called. he used all the time possible to make that decision bc of the clock call on the turn, he REALLY did not like that from how much he talked about it after the hand
@@iknewiwould Bad and average players (like DGAF (commentator) and probably you- no offense) are Only thinking call/fold here. That was NEVER a consideration for Tom (the $420k Doug bet was already snap decided). Some additional average players think snap shove. The Difficult decision for Tom is whether to just call, OR RAISE for the *additional* $547k, bc he is trying to Max out EV. The Wesley comment and early clock call (it was after 3.5 minutes) were Additional considerations. There are several hands that call a raise here and still lose to Tom; the Six K6 hands, two more for the 67 hands and another three for the less likely 22s. But Should you raise and risk KK, 66 hands? THAT was Tom's decision. It's easy to sit back and say easy raise (like many have) but it is an *additional $547k*, and like Tom said, call v raise is close.
love to see the thumbs up here. Makes me think there are others who watch HCL and know: The BIGGEST problem with their streams is the OVER commentating. I Love DGAF but he Talks WAYYYY too much. We are hold'm players, that Friday game After the big 1M buy-in special had Tom and Feldman, Nick, Ben, etc., so naturally the table talk was AWESOME. We didn't need to hear DGAF go on and on about garbage. Or to hear, "X flops a flush draw", rather than the Juicy table talk! STFU 🙏🏾
13 years ago, Dwan won the biggest pot in TV history with the same amount 1.1 million. Commentators were over excited at that moment. Now this pot is just another poker hand.
@@GovnaBuckingham What does jamming accomplish there? Bluffs insta-muck, nutted hands (KK or 66) insta-call and win, and value hands (K6, 76, 22) are put in a very tough spot. So essentially, Tom has to decide if Doug has more bluffs + nutted hands (CALL) or value hands (JAM) in his range. If Doug can reasonably have value hands in this spot, the jam is worth the risk of him having the nuts to get an additional ~$550k. If Doug cannot reasonably have value hands in this spot, Tom is putting himself in a situation where he can never win another $550k but risks losing it. Would love to see how long it would take you to risk half a million dollars betting that your opponent has K6, 76, or 22 vs. KK or 66.
It was about 2 mins and 8 secs into Tom’s decision when Doug first said, “alright, let’s move it along now.” I think Tom knew at that moment he was good and how stressed Doug was beginning to feel
This was an absolutely Epic Stream, I railed Fulltilt high stakes tables Durr, Isildur, Ivey, and Antonius back in the day and this was in that stratosphere.

Tom's tanking is real, no torture or what so ever. Guy is on World Class Level. You see him scanning to whole table, looks a lot at his opponent and Wesley. Uses every bit of information pre flop, flop, timebank etc. He has the experience, thinking back at situations, excludes KK, I am the biggest fan. Thinking with a full house so long, combine every piece of information, what a top player
Nah it was BS. He didn't even recognize 76s wasn't available. And said himself later after the turn clock call he's gonna milk every bit of value on the next street by taking as long as possible. It's probably close, but he can make that decision way quicker. It's also not likely to matter that much, as KK/66 are soooo unlikely so if you were to "incorrectly" shove, you're not going to get punished to often anyway.
@@petermaag9622 When the pot surpasses 1 million dollars it's pretty hard to stick to what's the statistically correct play. You need to play THAT hand in particular.
@@iiBeehii There's was some justification and perhaps yes a little ... I don't think Durrr was impressed with the clock and was also letting Doug know!
@@veljkohadzic3360 exactly., Doug value overpot bet range includes only KK and 67, very small percentage of the time 22., so he’s weighing his options of shoving,. Cuz only 67 and KK will call, and he is winning in one and losing to the other.
Pretty good feeling to be Dwan, hit the second nuts on flop, third nuts by the River, and be 1.1 million richer. He had to have felt pretty confident the whole time.
I agree with the comments about Dwan just being on a level these people don't understand, particularly the commentary. The dude got max value here and his turn tank was figuring how to do it and getting in Doug's head. The river tank is obviously call or shove and he's just playing so far above the rim here and doesn't give a crap about the time being taken. He's playing for money, not the TV show.
@@chexcollects So you Disagree with Dwan, ok sport. The reason why Tom thought it was close is because, like he said, 67s and K6s; and I agree, those hands often call. 22 calls some too, but Tom said he discounted 22 bc of Wesley's comment. At the river it was an additional $.5M (what Doug still had left) question. So Call v Shove was a big $ decision *when you want to Maximize*.
Wasn't his money. But I wonder if that was all Westley's that he lost. People don't stake him, it was cypto money. I guess you could lose that much in 10 minutes with CC too.
With all the 3, 4, and 5 betting going on PF, I think people ignore that this game wasn't playing 1000 bigs deep. With a standard open to 3k getting frequently 3 and 4 bet, it was more like 300 bigs deep.
14:06 Dwan responds to Rob Yong who's asking "wtf?" by saying "it's if I shove or not" .... which is perfectly fine! Dwan's one of the best in the world, man! Rob then says with 100% certainty though that Dwan should've shoved.... The amount of poker players in the world who've had SUCH bad luck when shoving in big hands (when they themselves are holding a big hand), well...THEY know. They know and remember all those bad beats and cold decks. Dwan's play was fine.
Tom wasn't in the tank, he was thinking about what to buy with all that loot, a new Benz, a nice Rolex with diamonds, maybe a Ferrari, or take a nice trip to the Bahamas, etc.😊
No Ferarri's for Dwan. He was thinking how to pay off his huge gamble debt in Macau with the Chiness triads. This 1m pot barely enough to pay the interest.
@@MisterMaster4life What debt? As if Tom is not a huge winner in those Macau games. lol. If anything, the only reason Tom has been able to repay Jungleman and Haralobob debts is because of the Macau games.
@@Romans8-9 I understand the confusion, my bad. Televised, upload on internet...I put them in the same category. Either way, there's more than rumours going from reliable recourses that years ago Dwan lost massive amounts of money gambling (not only poker) in Macau. Take it for what it is.
I once heard durrrr say “if I’m pausing I’m thinking. If I’m pausing I’m thinking.” Sometimes you just feel it in your gut and need to think things through. I usually allow players a really long time to think
Tom is such a gentleman and classy player at the table, it's obvious he won't say what he's really thinking so I'll say it for him - "Why are you questioning my play and why am I even trying to explain it to you? I'm better than you." Those guys are just dudes with money to waste. Tom is a poker player. The difference can easily be seen when you really watch how Tom plays. Polk had no business even being in that hand. Small suited connectors? If Polk played worth a damn, he would know that Tom is not folding if hit a part of the board, so he's plan must have been to try to bluff Tom off the hand from the start; getting a piece of the flop was just going to be a bonus if it happened.
"Coz i like this hand isnt Kings" damn.. the degree of awareness of dwan is on a different level! Much respect to his game. . Guy didnt just tank to tilt doug, dwan was thinking if by shoving he can get called by worse hand K6,76 or deuces. .he eliminated possibility of KK becoz of that statement. .
Strange, at 17:14 Dwan says about Polk's hand, "I like this hand" (comment of Wesley) is not KK, it is 66, 67s or K6s. But the commentator says, Dwan should realize from what he holds (7h7c) and from what is on the board (7d6h6s) that his opponent cannot have 67 suited. I am not sure Dwan realized that, from the way he spoke.
There’s over 1 million dollars at the end of this pot. Who tf cares if he takes his time. Dudes making 700k in 20 less than 20 minutes. When it’s this high stakes there’s no reason to be mad when someone tanks.
I disagree. When people are stuck a lot of money, it is definitely disrespectful to the losers to take forever.. This was when the game just was starting though which is why Dwan did what he did
Well, for a half a million dollars I think that is a good reason. I mean we will never understand what it is to risk a half a million dollars on one poker hand.
everyone has an opinion on Doug, but to be fair he took that slowroll really well although it felt like revenge for the clock call on the turn. I think Dwan knew very soon he was not going to move in and to be fair, although it looks crazy, which hands you would like to get calls from when you move in as Tom? 76off, K6 of clubs are maybe never there and two combination of deuces which might fold to a shove. So there are trapped kings and quads.
No Tom just taught some respect to these young fellas. He is Tom Dwan after all. I liked what he did and he knew after the flop it was good. Peace 😎 ✌️
Tom is a brilliant cash player. Im glad he stacked these fools. Dont call the clock or play stupid here look at my card games with Tom. The physical, verbal, giggling conversational and crazy overbet after brick on river tells were through the roof. Im glad he clearly slow rolled him on a 1.1 million dollar pot. Well deserved. Show some respect and decorum at these stakes. Its not a basement game.
discovered the difference between Polk and Dwan. polk is a heads up specialist, ring games are his kryptonite . Dwan is a ring game specialist, quicker at reading multiple players, how they play hands, spotting bluffs, adapting to different players. This small margin provides confidence to boss hands he plays both are great players, but different
Vanessa Selbst really put Dwan to the test here
Underrated comment right here. Bless up
Too funny lol
I’ll never unsee it

The second tank was revenge for calling the clock on the first tank. 200%. He knew he had him beat. He knew he wasn't shoving. He knew polk was sitting there tortured. He wanted him to endure it.
Agreed
Facts 😂
you mean 'to endurrr it'
Not only that.... Polk in the years made many videos more or less evident against Tom
The whole thing was to punish Polk. He slow rolled the entire thing.
The first tank was tactical. The second was revenge.

I think Doug is one of those people you really like in person, but when he gets on the internet he ruins it.
after doug called clock i went to walk my dog came back and the hand wasent over lmao
Toms check on the river was perfect. He knew excatedly where he was....
toms tank on the turn was a catalyst for a huge bluff by polk
Why tf would Doug bluff there with a straight instead of just check calling or check folding
Didn't watched this session, was this before the Wesley hand or after?
Cheers to Doug for being a sport. Literally just laughed my ass off when he said the TH-cam rev comment
14:06 Dwan responds to Rob Yong who's asking "wtf?" by saying "it's if I shove or not" .... which is perfectly fine!
Dwan's one of the best in the world, man! Rob then says with 100% certainty though that Dwan should've shoved....
The amount of poker players in the world who've had SUCH bad luck when shoving in big hands (when they themselves are holding a big hand), well...THEY know. They know and remember all those bad beats and cold decks.
Dwan's play was fine.
I like seeing nik lose and now i like seeing Doug lose.
Tom wasn't in the tank, he was thinking about what to buy with all that loot, a new Benz, a nice Rolex with diamonds, maybe a Ferrari, or take a nice trip to the Bahamas, etc.😊
No Ferarri's for Dwan. He was thinking how to pay off his huge gamble debt in Macau with the Chiness triads. This 1m pot barely enough to pay the interest.
@@MisterMaster4life What debt? As if Tom is not a huge winner in those Macau games. lol. If anything, the only reason Tom has been able to repay Jungleman and Haralobob debts is because of the Macau games.
@@Romans8-9 Not talking about the televised poker games.
@@MisterMaster4life Neither am I. AFAIK the Macau games are not televised.
@@Romans8-9 I understand the confusion, my bad. Televised, upload on internet...I put them in the same category. Either way, there's more than rumours going from reliable recourses that years ago Dwan lost massive amounts of money gambling (not only poker) in Macau.
Take it for what it is.
2:45 turn,4:15 river...A6dd,56dd,66,22 all make sense.
This was best stream ever.
Did Doug ever do a hand breakdown? That would be interesting
That's a check back on the river.
Dwan trolling so hard he put everyone on tilt taking all that time with a full house lol
This is how to look good with $2mil on your table by winning like Tom,
Not buy in 2mil like Wesley 😂😂😂
I once heard durrrr say “if I’m pausing I’m thinking. If I’m pausing I’m thinking.”
Sometimes you just feel it in your gut and need to think things through. I usually allow players a really long time to think
15:56 lmao brit coming in with the sensibility understanding the dynamic
Tom is such a gentleman and classy player at the table, it's obvious he won't say what he's really thinking so I'll say it for him - "Why are you questioning my play and why am I even trying to explain it to you? I'm better than you."
Those guys are just dudes with money to waste. Tom is a poker player. The difference can easily be seen when you really watch how Tom plays. Polk had no business even being in that hand. Small suited connectors? If Polk played worth a damn, he would know that Tom is not folding if hit a part of the board, so he's plan must have been to try to bluff Tom off the hand from the start; getting a piece of the flop was just going to be a bonus if it happened.
A year ago dwan looked like he aged 20 years but I’m happy to see him looking better in the face now.
Huh? he has always had a young looking face
You got a lot to learn from this awesome great player Tom Dwan.....................
"Coz i like this hand isnt Kings" damn.. the degree of awareness of dwan is on a different level! Much respect to his game. . Guy didnt just tank to tilt doug, dwan was thinking if by shoving he can get called by worse hand K6,76 or deuces. .he eliminated possibility of KK becoz of that statement. .
What song is in the outro?
There’s one legend at that table and his name ends with about seven R’s.
Strange, at 17:14 Dwan says about Polk's hand, "I like this hand" (comment of Wesley) is not KK, it is 66, 67s or K6s. But the commentator says, Dwan should realize from what he holds (7h7c) and from what is on the board (7d6h6s) that his opponent cannot have 67 suited. I am not sure Dwan realized that, from the way he spoke.
"What were you thinking about?", "To shove or not." That's the difference between a top player and mediocre player!
Durrr was not tanking.
He was just thinking about Vegas and the f**king mirrage...
Almost a slow roll.
Almost
People tell me what kind of music is playing at the end of the video.
I find this hand very interesting, wonder if Doug reviews it on his channel?
did each chip have a built in microphone? That was the loudest chip shuffling I have ever heard lol.
There’s over 1 million dollars at the end of this pot. Who tf cares if he takes his time. Dudes making 700k in 20 less than 20 minutes. When it’s this high stakes there’s no reason to be mad when someone tanks.
I disagree. When people are stuck a lot of money, it is definitely disrespectful to the losers to take forever.. This was when the game just was starting though which is why Dwan did what he did
Watching durr for a long time, hes once in a lifetime talent and phenom of a poker player. Joy to watch..
i didn,t catch that , " it was like 2 minutes in a pot that was very likely to be ..? what did tom say there ? anyone know?
14:39 Handz looks like he is high here.
durr is a legend
Do I shaft or not!? That’s ironic impression will make a good meme 😂
Honestly the tank on the river is legendary
Dough is nowhere near Tom dwans level lmaooo
He plays on a different level than the vast majority of poker players, even elite ones.
I love the way Tom looks at Doug after he checks the river like bet you fool. Haha Tom tells everybody to shove it
Dwan was tanking hella long though, guys got a boat and tanks that long is ridiculous.
Well, for a half a million dollars I think that is a good reason. I mean we will never understand what it is to risk a half a million dollars on one poker hand.
Remind us how many million dollar pots do you play per day to make such very assured comment. ?
The amount of money is what makes it not ridiculous…..maybe your worth 100 million 🤷🏿♂️ it’s all love be blessed🙏🏿
Lmao I guess if you was in dwan situation maybe you considered a fold there. that's a MILLIONS DOLLARS pot.
@@stevekim6862 it was for 85k not 1 million.
Doug handled that well. Dwan, always a wizard.
man, i swear Wes knows he is in an entirely different league when Dwan is in play.
Polk is a twit !
Dwan is a baller.
Doug Polk facial expressions definitely leave few tells there when he said 420
Tom was putting Doug’s 24 hour protection deodorant to the test…
Durr was only waiting doug call the clock on the river 😅😅 well played mind game
Handz is cool
Tom with all the facial gestures/expression staring in the sky. Asking poker god for help.
everyone has an opinion on Doug, but to be fair he took that slowroll really well although it felt like revenge for the clock call on the turn. I think Dwan knew very soon he was not going to move in and to be fair, although it looks crazy, which hands you would like to get calls from when you move in as Tom? 76off, K6 of clubs are maybe never there and two combination of deuces which might fold to a shove. So there are trapped kings and quads.
Tom is absolutely next level. He did that on purpose. With that hand so easy call on the turn. Try to make Doug think he has decent hand 👏
No Tom just taught some respect to these young fellas. He is Tom Dwan after all. I liked what he did and he knew after the flop it was good. Peace 😎 ✌️
Doug taking that like nothing other than a gentleman. He's a troll and likes his shithousery but ultimately he's one of the good guys in poker.
Tom is a brilliant cash player. Im glad he stacked these fools. Dont call the clock or play stupid here look at my card games with Tom. The physical, verbal, giggling conversational and crazy overbet after brick on river tells were through the roof. Im glad he clearly slow rolled him on a 1.1 million dollar pot. Well deserved. Show some respect and decorum at these stakes. Its not a basement game.
Tom killing this!!!
discovered the difference between Polk and Dwan.
polk is a heads up specialist, ring games are his kryptonite .
Dwan is a ring game specialist, quicker at reading multiple players, how they play hands, spotting bluffs, adapting to different players. This small margin provides confidence to boss hands he plays
both are great players, but different
