    Stu Ungar was a genius at many card games. One of the best gin rummy players ever, if not the best. Ungar beat Harry Stein, who was considered the best player at the time, 86 games to zero!! Stein was so psychologically destroyed by this, he basically stopped playing the game completely. After beating his opponent, Ungar would offer double or nothing if he was able to tell the other player what cards he was still holding. Being that Ungar had a photographic memory, those who took him up on this offer ALWAYS ended up paying double. Absolute legend but a tragic story nonetheless. Side note: Wild Bill Hickok was murdered in Saloon # 10 in Deadwood South Dakota, NOT North Dakota.

    @@CG-jo6oc He was a genius at cards in general. He excelled at every variation he played. With his phenomenal memory, he didn’t need a “system”. A counting system is generally applied when multiple decks are being used. It’s simply a method which allows someone to assess the composition of the cards not yet played. After doing so, one then alters their betting strategy in order to improve their odds and hence their advantage. In gin rummy only one deck is used and Ungar had the ability to remember every card that was played. He was really on a completely different level than even the best gin rummy and poker players. His contemporaries all say he was the best poker player of his time. If you ask 50 top poker players today who the best player is, you’ll probably get 40 different opinions. Cheers!

    whats interesting about the hand is that Unger raises 4x what kind of player is calling a 4x raise out of position most playable hands would have to raise in that spot, calling with 54 is a terrible play from the get go so when he overbet the flop and just gets called its becomes apparent he has some sort of weak draw checking the turn gives further evidence of this then jamming the river for no reason makes no sense because hands that have a king in them probably reraise preflop if he had a queen he would have bet the turn, if he had a he would have raise preflop so the bluff made no sense pretty much Unger's opponent was a donkey who tried to buy the pot on the river witha huge over bet just a terrible play so its not all that brilliant when you follow the action and know the player is a very remedial holdem player

While you couldn't tell from the hand history that she looked exactly once, it was obvious that she was at least mostly playing blind (e.g., folding Aces pre-flop). Many also consider her many other amazing feats (e.g., becoming the youngest player to win a WSOP in 2007) to make this more believable.

    Regarding Obrestads way of playing (not seeing her cards). The only problem is that the person behind this video probably wasn't born or in his diapers) back then (and probably can't play poker either.) Just to enlighten him a bit. - I used to do the same. Player was so easy to read and you could (without breaking a sweat) navigate yourself to the finale table (top 3) without ever looking at your card (at least two times out of three at the lower levels and one time out of three at the highest level.) You cant do the same today! So real poker players do trust her based on the fact that they know the circumstances. (She doesn't need to prove it with a video. But if you want proof. Look at the cards she trowed away. (She have published the complete hand history from that game. A couple of high pairs (aces and similar hands) against bluffs in big hands when she had the nuts no matter what That´s the way she proved it back then, so yes people can see the truth! (Poker player anyway.) My question, What kind of newbie are you?! (If you don't understand this?!)
