Candio was all but out of the Main Event but he made a runner-runner straight from heaven after a 13% chance of Survival post-flop. Adrenaline rush and how high the stakes are with 19 players left in the Main Event pretty much made that celebration all that much memorable to me. (Candio went from a near 19th place finish ($317K) into 4th place ($3.3M)) Duhamel was more in disbelief and relief. Disbelief that he made a ridiculous call and got lucky, but relieved that he just won the largest pot of the 2010 main event at that point and just about ensured himself a seat at the final table.

Every time I watch the Affleck hand, I still root for it to be a clean river for him.

I can’t believe the cheong vs duhamel hand. Cheong is being faced with a 5 bet. A FREAKING FIVE BET. ask yourself, what does that range look like when there’s millions of dollars on the line??? That’s a clear easy fold. Firstly, you can’t squeeze in A7 off into your teeny tiny 6 bet range. You’re just going broke almost every time doing that. Secondly, I believe he thought Duhamel was weak cause with both of his raises, the 3 bet and the 5 bet, he chose a small raise size. I believe in that spot, the 4 bet with the A7 is totally fine, definitely more on the aggressive side, but fine by all means, especially since they’re 3 handed. But once you’re opponent puts in the FIVE BET, the hand should be over with. That’s just my thoughts, what you guys think?

@Larez121

Shukuladay888 Perez Totally agree. That year Cheong was the most LAG player at the final table, which is why in that other hand in this video the other guy called Cheong with a small pair never expecting Cheong to have AA heh. Anyway there had to be hands not on the show where they played back at Cheong knowing he doesn't have the goods. Perhaps Cheong was getting frustrated with the pushback and his style wasn't working anymore. He was probably hoping Duhamel was three betting light... But once that five bet came Cheong should have narrowed his range to only the premium hands AK, AA, KK, QQ, even AQ, JJ since it's only three handed with the pay jump considerations. Or as they are called now, the ICM considerations? Cheong was hoping Duhamel would fold based on his ICM considerations, when he should have been considering his own lol...

15:08 Here comes the river card... 15:09 OH, NO! My heart goes out to you, Affleck... that is a BRUTAL way to go out.

It's crazy that I haven't seen Matt Affleck since. I never expected him to win the WSOP main event, it's too much luck with all the entries these days. But at least I thought he would have won a different WSOP bracelet, WPT, or another televised event.

Beats some hands, sure, but Duhamel's play up to that point said one thing and one thing only: he wasn't likely to be bluffing.

Poker is a reflection of life.

On a side note on that Jarvis vs Mizrachi hand, every hand shown would’ve hit decently or better: Candio would’ve had the worst hand with two pair (8s and Qs) Senti would’ve had trip Queens. Duhamel would’ve had a straight. Jarvis with 9s full of Qs. Mizrachi with Qs full of Aces. (Win)

Never realised how similar the Jarvis - Mizrachi hand is to the famous Ivy - Money maker one. Both have flopped trips with AQ both have a 9 on the turn for the player to boat up and both have an Ace on the river to crush 99s full. Only difference is one was preflop all in.

If JRB ran like an average player he would be one of the best

1:20 I love these people at the table lol think everything is luck and mysticism and nothing to do with the fact he’s entitled to win 90% of the time, meaning he still loses 10% of the time. Be happy you got it in ahead and made the right play you’re never in control of what cards come after.

I really felt the pain of Matt Affleck. I comfort myself by the fact that he won half a million dollar. It just really hurts to see it..

It's hard for me to feel sorry for anyone who gets paid enough money to buy a house from playing a game. I feel much more sorry for the thousands of saps who saved up $10,000 to play in the Main Event and did not make the money. Surely many of them didn't make the money because of bad beats.

Jean Paul Bellande has had more than his share of bad beats. While the pain of this is obvious he always shows a lot of class when it happens. How poker players should act and very few of them do.

Bellande has more bad beats than any pro I have seen. You dead on that he handles it with class. I admire him so much for this. Wish other poker players would see this and act accordingly but might be wishing for a long time on that one.

It's sponsored by pokerstar , I am not surprised at all

Cheong was the best player that year he should have won

This is the best Affleck. Class act.

This years ME was poker PRIME

One of the better years for the WSOP M.E. on tv.
