It’s a crazy bluff because nick could easily have 3/4 suited or even off suit. Im actually shocked that he didn’t call given the opponent.

what's the point in calling flop and turn against a player like rampage if you're gonna fold to a river shove when the draws basically all miss? i'm not a serious poker player, but it seems like airball played this almost as poorly as possible.

No, your entire turn call range should not call a river jam. It's not just about draws, ranges on a whole are more important. When you are betting multiple streets, you have fewer bluffs on each street. Say rampage was bluffing 50% on flop then it might go 35% turn and 20% river. You need to count all the hands he would triple barrel with after a 4bet and figure out if you beat enough of those hands to profit. Meaning sometimes you call a turn bet but have to fold river

Beautiful wait-out by Rampage....he went up a notch in my opinion just watching that. I think that's exactly the way to play the situation....NO Table Talk....

I always appreciate the solid poker commentary on these high stakes hands. I watched a very introspective take from Phil Galfond recently, describing his invitation to televised poker, and subsequent uninvite from the second day. Sometimes where there is a camera, exciting poker > good poker, because boring players don't get welcomed back.

It has been interesting watching Ethan grow over the last few years. He isn't going away and will only get better.

I actually thought they froze the frame on Rampage untill i saw the people walking behind him. Dude is like a statue, doesnt even blink.

Bloody good poker face

"Promise I'm not wasting time." He's stalling to see if he catch a reaction - WAY too long. You play a hand like deuces hoping to catch the set, or to jam when you think the opponent has whiffed the flop. You don't play 2-2 as a calling station, no matter what the flop looks like.

When I’m all in, I stare at the pot, zone out, to the point that I can feel my eyes gloss over, and mentally play a relaxing song in my head. I completely tune out the world. 👽

An extra good one today, Thx sir!

Airball is a charitable man he's going straight to heaven. I would try and keep my big yap shut is my answer

Great analysis all around, from Rampage, Airball, even the commentary. Nik should’ve considered C/R turn if he believed he had enough equity there.

Nick flat-calling the initial pre-flop raise, then check-calling every street is literally all the info Rampage needed to know to make this bluff work. He knows Nick's betting patterns (as they're somewhat predictable, even just from watching him play), & probably has a good idea of his range, especially when he's just flat-calling pre-flop, & then check calling the whole way. The somewhat dry-board didn't do him any favors either. He wouldn't play any premium hands this way; it's down to pretty much middling pairs or exactly what he has only. I gotta give air-ball props for even considering a call, but he just got straight-up outplayed here by 1 of the best players to frequent Hustler's live streams. Unfortunately for him it wasn't the 1st time, & won't be the last - unless Nick's seemingly infinite bank-roll finally runs out, that is.

Maybe the better play is to be out on the flop and save yourself a ton of chips. If you really wanna set mine, ok. Out on the flop when you miss and save yourself a lot of chips and avoid having to make that tough call. Personally, set mining on a 3-bet board is something I would not do with deuces anyway. Even when you hit, if there's any high cards on the board, you have to expect sometimes you will be outgunned by the better set and those hands will cost you so much that it will take several sets to make up for them. I'd bring my set mining range up to probably around 99 so I could at least expect to be middle set if I hit. All that said, I rarely play more than 100 BB deep effective, so... perhaps I would need to recalibrate.

If you're seriously considering calling with the deuces at the end, then put the other guy in with a check raise after that flop. But to play deuces as a calling station? Well that explains the terrible "luck" Nik has had.

Can someone explain what Jonathan means by "all the draws miss"? I understand that the flush draws missed but there's still a J and Q, and with how rampage played pre-flop isn't it very likely he could have those cards, or even a large pair?

I think it's a standard fold preflop after the 3x 4 bet ;but for sure fold on the river considering there are far more hands we lose to than complete bluffs that would have 4bet preflop, KA is the only complete bluff candidate I can reasonably think of at the moment. Deuces are never great to set mine with facing a 4 bet preflop in my experience.

Yes, fold-pre 100%, but by 4 betting A8hh Rampage proves he could actually have any suited Ax hand, all of which would have triple barrelled unless they hit a pair, so there are actually a ton of hands in his range that miss and have to bluff.

@RockPolitics

Calling the 4-bet pre is bad enough, especially since the third player had already folded. If you hit that set you really want to collect from two players. But it's calling after the flop that's really dumb. Bet out, check-raise (even better), or fold.

Only Airball would call preflop. The greater players would have folded after the flop.

I generally don’t engage in table talk. I’m decent at poker and very bad at psychological verbal manipulation.

When Rampage is that still i would call. I could actually feel his nervousness.

I mean cold call 3bet out OOP was the mistake here. Folded the ducks and move on with ur life. Basically a 6k pull on a slot machine. Makes good TV tho

How much do you think Airballs play style influenced Rampages line in this hand?

Stare blankly at the turn card and breathe slowly and meditate to remove myself from everything going on at the table

Don't be passive he just call down any resistance at the start or middle he likely takes it.

I just don't understand calling the turn if you're not going to put it in on the river. You know Rampage ain't gonna slow down

@RockPolitics

Жыл бұрын

I said it above, but if you're going to play the hand at all, better to check-raise after that flop and put the other guy to the test. Calling stations MUST have the goods at the end, and 2-2 is rarely that.

When I'm all in and someone is asking me questions, I don't respond. You have the right to remain silent at a poker table. I don't even answer questions about my chip stack. I just move my hands.

I don’t talk while in a hand, after the session, I will talk to anyone about a hand.

When you don't believe him on the flop and then the turn you should probably call off the river. In this case Rampage has complete air but he is capable of playing AK or A10 or any suited Ace with spades or diamonds this way. So when the river bricked with a J all the more reason to call as Rampage 3 bet range preflop and continuous betting indicate AA or KK or AQ or QQ. But AQ doesn't probably shove. So we are worried about just 2 or 3 hands and all the other bluffs. Call.

How is your pinned comment 1 month old when it says the video was posted 5 hours ago? 🤔

I LOVE seeing nik airball get owned

Quiet and Stoic. Weakness is strength and strength is weakness.

Nik FISHball

I always stay quiet, btw , If Nick went the distance, I’d call river

He calls off hundreds of thousands in seconds, but needed extra attention today so waited 10 minutes for $57k.

I would talk myself out of a pot like I always do and get called when I bluff 🤦🏽‍♂️

Its 3 to 1. If i had money like airball i think you have to call. Why call every street then fold the river. That said its easy to say this when we have perfect information

Bruh, if you're behind now, you were behind the whole way. Why put in $32k if you're gonna fold for $57k especially when the most obvious draw misses?

Before he called the $25k turn he should've planned on calling an all-in shove at the river and essentially a blank came on the river he should've definitely gone with his initial read!!! Cannot make half-ass hesitant decisions but have to be decisive one way or the other... I can understand the lay down if a front door flush (backdoor one even) came on the river but it DID NOT!!! Therefore, terrible fold esp against an opponent that you know bluffs relatively enough!!! So at the turn, he shoulda been ready to go $75k with his read or $0... Not punt off a $25k for no good reason after reading it correctly the whole way!!!

I don't speak to anyone when I am all in. Ever.

This is why you fold this hand preflop... and im the "keep quiet" type. Talking is not going to help you.

Nik is calling every bet and not raising, he might as well call the all-in. Plus he big stack. I like Rampage’s demeanor but the 6k tells the draw that probably did not hit. (A K ? A X ?). Nik All-in on 6k bet ! Put the pressure.

This just feels like a plan gone wrong, feels like he has only QQQ here or air. Aa and kk will price out a flush draw on the turn. How can you fold now getting almost 3to1? If you know rampage is capable of this play at all it is a call. Its hard to make a pair in NLHE

Do exactly what Rampage is doing

I don't have a good speech game like Eric Perrson and I have known this about myself for a long time. I always just stare at one card on the board whether it's a bluff or not. And I try hard to be balanced when I shove. Shove when I have the nuts, shove when I bluff, shove when I think it's a chop. Never say a word or even look at my opponent.

I'd show him the Ace of hearts.

Dang I like air balls style, he is a solid player and is great at maneuvering whether in position and even more so out of position. Airball new deep down his pockets were good but I don’t know why he held himself back on falling. A call would have been an epic read. End of the day Airball knew that rampage bricked but he gave rampage too much respect, he needs to realize whether ur a pro or not…poker is still poker. Nothing better in poker than a good call like this could have been or a laydown… Airball must have forgot rampage 4 bet to 12k and when the flop hit rampage only bet like 6k. Rampage had he had a strong hand like top pair, AA or KK like Airball first said, Rampage would have bet at least half the pot and he bet half of that half which was less than his preflop bet. If I was Airball I woulda called because of that flop rampage made, I would have seen that smaller bet as a value bet from someone trying to bluff to know how he is going to play the next two cards and to 17:49 see where Nik is at on this board and unfortunately Airball could have and should have 3 bet rampage on the flop to gain Control of this pot. Once u just flat call ur telling everyone you are on a draw and praying to just catch something. Rampage saw it like this and continued his onslaught of bets cuz Airball chose to play weak and on a straight draw. By this time rampage knew the only way to win was to jam on river. Had he placed a big bet

I'm of the Rampage slant and say nothing. I'm not as good as he is staying still, however.

Keep quiet. Silence is golden.

the guy is a mxxon

10000% you keep quiet every time. a busted draw would be an uncomfortable spot. if you have a decent hand you're probably good and you'll sit there and you're ok if he calls or folds, so you just sit there without much of a sweat.

Too bad, Donk Airhead. There's a guy on 888 casino that plays like him that I can't stand. It's very satisfying to see manics get beat at their own game. 😊 Good job, Rampage. Btw, I'm using my winnings to buy some of your books Johnathan! I can't wait to read them!

Waste of time. U can’t call. Even if he bluff he can have pair of 3. Airhead….

Keep Quite.

When you get the River with Pocket 2 the Ducks. Just call it off. You had four chances to play smart at this point you kinda have to commit to your mistake, Cause you thought you w ere on the Flop and Turn you should think you are good on the River.

Rampage played like he has a Q or over pair. Possibly even an under pair. Also a set would play this way. Airball has a single pair The worst pair Even if Rampage is bluffing with one pair. It's still better than Niks Airball put himself in that situation. If he was going to invest so much he should known Rampage is going all in on River His Ego gets in the way of making the right choice He could have folded at any time He could have gone all in himself on a bluff which would have been a better option of just calling building up the pot then finally folding when he gets 3 to 1 on a river call

Rampage is imo sucididal to try to bluff biggest calling station and fish but it works out somehow and he had lowest pair imagine he has pair of 3eees hes snapp calling threes

Stillness.

Nik should have folded preflop.

I’ve seen that moved so many times esp in oline poker and I always call coz I know that the only thing the villain will win the pot is by bluffing! Rampage can easily have the those bluffs AK combo, AJ suited, Ax suited.. Nick Airball just don’t know how to play poker!

Listen to me when I tell you this is why you do not call 3 and 4 bets with deuces, three's, or four's. The number of times where I correctly read the opponent is bluffing and yet they are bluffing a hand that just beats my call.
