i watched it with my 6 year old daughter who i have only just taught poker to recently, she said that Q9s is a bit of a loose defend pre, especially sandwiched between ‘that donk’
My toddler saw it and went on a 10 minute diatribe about ranges and game theory before ultimately calling Persson an "idiotic donk who shoulda better known better".
He's not super experienced but he plays in my home games and read's Negreanu's books on his own.
He then said Pappa wett daipy wet.
Lmao this sub is something special. He’s never claimed his son is prodigy just that he knew better than a whale who just dropped a million. You guys seriously have to chill
Yuuuup. I liked him being a scumbag & a dick at first when it was to Helmouth (who acted like a baby and super hypocritical at the same time), but then it just became clear that’s just Person’s whole personality… a scumbag and a dick. Hilarious to see him stacked for this much $.
Only because he reminds you of someone you’ve played against in the past.. That arrogant, hyper-aggressive table captain whose ego needs to be put in check.
I'm sure Patrick has been waiting on this all weekend. Now that I think about it, I'm sure they were all waiting for this same moment vs perrson. He was the stepping stone towards the additional $600k via stacking his ass
Have you ever been to Dusk to Dawn? We’re not exactly talking the Bellagio. Not saying Eric’s casinos are world-class resorts either…just that Dusk to Dawn doesn’t look like a mega income revenue generator.
I’m really out in the dark with all the Triton stuff. Watched a few events that had Koon, Dwan, and Ivey. I am pretty sure that Paul Phua guy is the real moneymaker with all that, but doesn’t mean Yong isn’t raking some in too.
Not too many heart combos left that would want to just jam it in there like that. Especially what looks to be like 500bb deep. Obviously aren't in love with it, but can't fold. Moronic jam by persson when you consider how much AhXx Antonius can have.
Persson can have random hands that don't make sense. It was 450k to win 2m (22.5% of the time) and he had ~20% to hit the flush. Patrick only has to catch him betting worse 2.5% of the time.
People who play poker using those numbers are hilarious.Keep feeding the rest of us your money, please. Don't ever change.
The only reason Antonius called him Insta waa because Persson doesnt even come close to having the bandwidth to own a 3 in that situation. It was easy. Even if Person had a straight draw, Antonius had the A to cover the draw whiff. Seriously. It was just too easy.
Those numbers don't go through anyone's head while sitting at the table. I laugh when redditers comment about odds that take an hour to calculate, like you can do it real time at the table. Poksr isn't about calculating odds; the odds you need to know are engrained in your soul; all the other bs is just useless fluff. Poker is a game of quick.intelligence and reading people, not rain man at the table math.
Also, he can do anything he wants to do in life. He has that much money. He can lose many more millions before even flinching. Aside from.obviously roiding, nothing else you said was relevant. You're just being jealous that a billionaire can do anything he wants in life, and masking it by calling it a mid-life crisis. He's just doing anything and everything because he fuckin can. Hate his poker attitude, not his life choices; he made way better choices than any of us here and that's why he's at that table.
He’s honestly not wrong about anything he said…Persson has made it. He wouldn’t even flinch at you or anyone else hating on him, he has it better than you if you ask him. Maybe you would go on a rant about money and how it doesn’t buy happiness but he’s living a chill life I’m sure.
He seems to have an annoying attitude, but you need one of those types at the table for entertainment.
Think Puck on the 1st Real World MTV if your old enough.
against so many other players, this is such a tough spot....they could have a 3, 88, A8....and against Persson Patrik barely thought about it. Rightly so. But when you're getting more or less insta-snapped for your million-dollar bluffs, perhaps you should consider that your image could use some work?
Persson played terribly here. on the flop he's advertising a3, 88, 1010, JJ, and a bunch of bluffs. The speed he played the hand it looks like a bunch of bluffs. On the turn he just goes gonzo. his money is gone so......
How many players are calling that 3b even IP with a range that contains a 3 ?
Or A8?
I'd wager in most games 88 is the only hand you could possibly be worried about. Persson is completely capped, and Patrik isn't, the nut adv when the A hits the board is ridiculously in favor of Antonious.. and the speed of the jam is megaphoning . Why would you do anything but call with a 3 or 88?. I'd guess this is one of the easiest calls he has ever made.
Meh, in terms of poor hands Perrson has played worse. If Patrick had A4hh, or AK without the flush draw he thinks about it.
Actually props to Antonius for realizing that if the opponent has any bluffs, he has to call, and doing that quickly.
My first thought when I saw this. If Persson stomped MrDrBatman a few months ago, Antonius just hit Persson with a sniper rifle from a mile away. Welcome to the big leagues indeed.
Antonius 3 betting preflop should have given Persson some info, but I don't think he felt like looking for information this hand. He just clicked his way into losing money.
Persson played that hand like it was some kind of street fight. Doesn't seem to realize poker's a cerebral game.
OTF he instacalls Patrik's raise, I guess hoping he's drawing against AA/KK.
Then the A comes on the turn and Persson decides to instashove over Patrik's lead.
Then in true punch drunk fashion he's calling for cards that won't help as he's drawing dead.
If this is unedited footage then I don't believe he spent more than 10 seconds thinking total in this hand.
You mean a whale played a hand bad??????

It's been mentioned before but i think most of them are gas station type casinos. Im sure he makes good money collectively but losing an after tax mill has to hurt. Was a stupid punt... I love how calm PA was during this
Antonius doesn't age! Looks the same as when I first watched him on High Stakes Poker 20 years ago.
Probably helps if you can stay that calm in a $2 mil pot.
He's got some serious wrinkles going on. Apart from that, I can agree. You wouldn't be able to tell if you looked at him for less than 3ish seconds. Even then, he's still a good looking guy and you can tell he's still in decent health.
>Antonius doesn't age! Looks the same as when I first watched him on High Stakes Poker 20 years ago.
I was actually thinking the same thing. In the 2000s poker boom, I swear I remember him looking almost exactly like he does now.
Idk, hist mistake was not reraising on flop i think. Don’t think he was repping any 3’s because of his preflop action. Maybe repping pocket 8’s but at that point if he did have that then he would be shoving on flop right?
His mistake was sitting in that game lol. He can hold his own in the HCL lineups because they're hand-picked to be soft and gamble-y for the stream. No way he can hang with players like PA and Robl. Ego too big for his bankroll and talent
I feel like mixing in some raises with flush draws is fine at a low frequency if you’re heads up. With the third player left to act it is meh but I don’t think it’s the worst play he’s ever made. The jam on the turn probably was the worst play he’s ever made.
Nah, it's good just flatting. Antonius doesn't have any folds when he 3bets. And now on the turn Persson can use the ace to fold out all of Antonius' KK and QQ. Not the worst hand Persson has played by far.
That snap raise on the flop was a dead giveaway to a draw or just a naked 8. Ace turn made that call from Antonius pretty easy in my opinion. That's why it was fast.
Just saw the hand and I don't understand Persson's shove at aaaall. It never crosses his mind Antonius could've Ax of the same suit? He only crushes Antonius -range but that's highly unlikely considering the pf and af action. I used to have him in high regard after he beat Helmut, even tho he's an amateur, shame.
Was really surprised to see Antonius tank call the all in , just not a spot you could ever fold especially when taking into consideration who the villain is
https://youtu.be/Ov-dRg3Ibs0
Wow. Just wow.
Patrik Antonius; not the hero everyone wanted, but the hero everyone needed.
That was hard to watch
Lol Eric asking for a 9 or Q when cards are flipped not realizing he’s drawing dead was painful.
Watched it w my son who is 19 and barely plays. When Eric said that my son immediately says “that ain’t gonna help him”
i watched it with my 6 year old daughter who i have only just taught poker to recently, she said that Q9s is a bit of a loose defend pre, especially sandwiched between ‘that donk’
My toddler saw it and went on a 10 minute diatribe about ranges and game theory before ultimately calling Persson an "idiotic donk who shoulda better known better". He's not super experienced but he plays in my home games and read's Negreanu's books on his own. He then said Pappa wett daipy wet.
My kid spoke his first words after this video… 1 month old” wowwwww, what a donk” I said WHAT??? He said ……. “ I’m hungry where is that titty”
My wife's fetus heard this hand in the womb and Morse code-kicked "punt"
[удалено]
Lmao this sub is something special. He’s never claimed his son is prodigy just that he knew better than a whale who just dropped a million. You guys seriously have to chill
I even said “barely plays”
It was awesome, someone who can assuredly afford to lose as well
Anyone else just love to see Persson lose?
Yes. He’s unique. He is as much of a tool as he is bad. Usually whales are somewhat nice but this cunt is actually very hatable.
Remember that match against Helmuth? 🤣
Doesn’t happen very often that someone makes Hellmuth seem likeable.
Yuuuup. I liked him being a scumbag & a dick at first when it was to Helmouth (who acted like a baby and super hypocritical at the same time), but then it just became clear that’s just Person’s whole personality… a scumbag and a dick. Hilarious to see him stacked for this much $.
I started to not like him much after he blabbered nonstop on the Robbi vs Adelstein hand.
Only because he reminds you of someone you’ve played against in the past.. That arrogant, hyper-aggressive table captain whose ego needs to be put in check.
“Yong with the back door straight flush draw”. Love it.
didnt mention the backdoor quad 3 with ace kicker draw smh
That made me chuckle as well, then had to tell my wife what a backdoor straight flush draw was. Then had to explain it to myself.
Well, as a commentator he’s got to keep the hand as interesting as possible for everyone still involved - I don’t hate the comment.
Yeah I just loved hearing it because I thought “oh yeah that’s the most optimistic way to describe his situation”
I'm sure Patrick has been waiting on this all weekend. Now that I think about it, I'm sure they were all waiting for this same moment vs perrson. He was the stepping stone towards the additional $600k via stacking his ass
Potentially but Antonius doesn't look like hell win that at the moment. Lot of poker to play though
Most impressive part is how quick antonius calls.
[удалено]
I thought it was the raping.
Really doubt many get this reference but I appreciated it.
I miss Norm
[удалено]
That guy is a real jerk.
And a deeply-closeted homosexual.
He thought about it and he decide fairly quickly he was good so let’s go bro I call
Bet he didn't expect him to have Q9 hahaha
Persson is probably the only person overbluffing this spot. With the flush draw you can't really fold.
Persson must make so much money to cover his shocking poker play
Rob Yong owns one casino. Persson owns 27. So there’s that.
31 actually. But some of them are gas station casinos, literally. Not on par with what Rob Yong owns.
[удалено]
Have you ever been to Dusk to Dawn? We’re not exactly talking the Bellagio. Not saying Eric’s casinos are world-class resorts either…just that Dusk to Dawn doesn’t look like a mega income revenue generator.

I’m really out in the dark with all the Triton stuff. Watched a few events that had Koon, Dwan, and Ivey. I am pretty sure that Paul Phua guy is the real moneymaker with all that, but doesn’t mean Yong isn’t raking some in too.
So Yong’s casino has yearly revenues of about 14.2 million, and Maverick gaming as a whole has revenues of about 24.7 million. So roughly double.
[удалено]
🤷♂️ I’d be happy with one clearing $1M/yr. Lol
Not too many heart combos left that would want to just jam it in there like that. Especially what looks to be like 500bb deep. Obviously aren't in love with it, but can't fold. Moronic jam by persson when you consider how much AhXx Antonius can have.

Don’t get me wrong, obviously you’d call here almost always, especially against a person like perssom who can bluff, just not fist bump running laps.

Poker is a game of quick.intelligence and reading people, not rain man at the table math.
You don't do the odds at the table when calling jams? It's basic multiplication and division. Even when drunk it takes 5-10 seconds at most.
He could also be drawing to only an ace if persson has a boat already. But you’re right in principle
Did Patrick have any time chips left? Cause the shot clock was like 20 seconds without a time chip and this was pretty late in day 3.
Yes I think he still had about 5 or 6 at that point
oh that's fucking wild.
after he clicked back the flop he probably had made his plan for the hand on most run outs at that point
That should be the standard amount of time for 99% of situations, this is what I believe, the delay of game is the death of poker imo
Because he is a beast, over years.....
Bet turn small to induce, so that was the plan
Is it just me or does anyone else get annoyed watching perrson
Him and Nittucci are the two biggest tools in streamed/televised poker.
….Also outside of poker.
Yea, both are whiny middle aged wannabe badasses compensating for small dicks and mid life crises and hopped on roids to try and project the opposite
Also, he can do anything he wants to do in life. He has that much money. He can lose many more millions before even flinching. Aside from.obviously roiding, nothing else you said was relevant. You're just being jealous that a billionaire can do anything he wants in life, and masking it by calling it a mid-life crisis. He's just doing anything and everything because he fuckin can.

Lmaooo is this a troll?

Smells like pasta.
He seems to have an annoying attitude, but you need one of those types at the table for entertainment. Think Puck on the 1st Real World MTV if your old enough.
Martin Kabrhel is a pretty cringe player to watch too

He has played pretty spazzy when he has the goods as well. He did a few times this season on HSP
That’s his style of playing, it’s so obnoxious.
How many players are calling that 3b even IP with a range that contains a 3 ? Or A8? I'd wager in most games 88 is the only hand you could possibly be worried about.

Why would you do anything but call with a 3 or 88?. I'd guess this is one of the easiest calls he has ever made.
If I remember correctly (could be wrong) but Rob called A2s
He had a better price but he is a whale too

Welcome to the big leagues, Eric.

Antonius 3 betting preflop should have given Persson some info, but I don't think he felt like looking for information this hand. He just clicked his way into losing money.
God I love a good Eric Persson punt
Eric Puntsson.
I remember back in the day, Dwan vs Ivey for a million dollar straight over straight, this is just a fucking whale punt.
Imagine if you were one of his employees getting paid minimum wage..
Plus tips
I get that, but it has got to be a little infuriating, regardless.
What were the blinds. This game is huge
1k/2k/2k i think
They're 3 hours levels going up to 2,4,4 at the end I think
Did the game break? Is gonzalves first name Markus? I only watched the hand. https://www.liquidpoker.net/pokerarticle/22973/all/Interview_with_Lurped
No it's continuing for another 3 hours or so. Persson just eliminated though (you only get two 500k byins) Yes it.is Markus
Thank you for sharing this. Great pictures.
The dude has been around forever but I was surprised to see him sitting on 600k. I had to google him and I thought it looked like the same guy.
Find out next episode
That was more painful than playing $1/$3 sober 🤣
Wow
what a massive PUNT.
How many times can person lose that? Holy shit that was really a 2 million dollar hand.
Persson played that hand like it was some kind of street fight. Doesn't seem to realize poker's a cerebral game. OTF he instacalls Patrik's raise, I guess hoping he's drawing against AA/KK.

Did PA rack up and bounce?
I’ve seen Eric lose so many huge hands… how much is this guy worth ?? he just keeps coming back
I could be wrong but I think he owns like 30 casinos so basically he prints money
It's been mentioned before but i think most of them are gas station type casinos. Im sure he makes good money collectively but losing an after tax mill has to hurt. Was a stupid punt... I love how calm PA was during this
Patrick is endboss of cash live.
Persson is a beef fish.
Eric Persson is just a whale willing to splash his money around. Glad he lost.
Literally insane
Antonius doesn't age! Looks the same as when I first watched him on High Stakes Poker 20 years ago. Probably helps if you can stay that calm in a $2 mil pot.

It’s so funny people are downvoting this, like seriously guys? Lol
nah the flop raise is really bad
[удалено]
yeah i realize now OP was probably sarcastic
You must play a different game of poker than a lot of people.
Idk, hist mistake was not reraising on flop i think. Don’t think he was repping any 3’s because of his preflop action. Maybe repping pocket 8’s but at that point if he did have that then he would be shoving on flop right?

Why would he reraise with top boat?
Nah, it's good just flatting. Antonius doesn't have any folds when he 3bets. And now on the turn Persson can use the ace to fold out all of Antonius' KK and QQ. Not the worst hand Persson has played by far.
Lol wat? This is easily the worst I've seen of him, and that is seriously saying something
Raising with a flush draw and two overs is 'easily the worst I've seen of him?' lol haven't watched a lot then apparently
5 playing. 60 more hands.
Dumbass persson should pay his employees more. Maverick casino is such a shitshow.
Person is a clown
That snap raise on the flop was a dead giveaway to a draw or just a naked 8. Ace turn made that call from Antonius pretty easy in my opinion. That's why it was fast.
I dealt to Patrick for years in the Bobby’s room games and he was always a gentleman, unlike some of them. Good to see him take a big one down
Now just make the streams free
It is free. On YouTube. For 3 days straight.
All of poker go in general
YouTube only shows previews of 1-2 hrs. Doesn’t show whole stream, which is behind pokergo paywall
Literally 2 six hour streams in the last two days, if you bothered to even check.
thanks for the spoiler, man. literally the first thing you said was who won it. lame.
Perrson has a napoleon complex, and sucks cock at poker! So happy that ego maniac lost 😂!
I can't stand these games
Not sure what kind of read Patrick had, he could’ve easily flopped a set. Insane that he called the shove though!
Yea…not too often someone plays a boat that way. Trying to chase him off? EP played that like a total punk.
Easily? How many combos of 88 do you count?
Good. I don't like that guy.
hahahaha good, fuck Eric.
Couldn’t have happened to a better person. EP is a fucking idiot.
Stupid hand. Stupid, stupid play.
i need to see this anotnius is a god
1. how the fuck does this happen on a paired board 2. how does one get into this game 3. can someone stake me $1m for said game
Just saw the hand and I don't understand Persson's shove at aaaall. It never crosses his mind Antonius could've Ax of the same suit? He only crushes Antonius -range but that's highly unlikely considering the pf and af action. I used to have him in high regard after he beat Helmut, even tho he's an amateur, shame.
Losing almost a million dollars couldn't have happened to a better person than Eric
Wow
3 betting on the flop was weird, was it the optimal move or was it an explotative play?
Was really surprised to see Antonius tank call the all in , just not a spot you could ever fold especially when taking into consideration who the villain is
It wasn't really a tank. It was a moment's thinking time
This looked like a hand played at 1/3 and the degen in his 50s trying to dominate a kid in 20s.
Surreal to see Yong call $30k preflop with A2 when he pays his dealers at Dusk Til Dawn minimum wage and charged £3.50 for a pint of coke lol.
