  • 4:14 - - - - The Ivey Stare. The money is already in, he's trying to intimidate the dealer now.

  • everyone would have call with 99 after the flop mercier is a noob

  • totally agree!!!!!i dont understand the title of this vid and i don´t understant either why the hell the skills of Ivy are so overrated in this hand.I would have call,definitelly.

  • bando de filhos da puta

  • lol @ asking to run it twice, gl with that.

  • poker is fucking boring

  • @sinnersaintstudios wait what?

  • @sinnersaintstudios

    Great choice of video to watch then isnt it?

  • Comment removed

  • The reason this call is so great is that Ivey will consistently get away when he IS beat in these spots. This was pure read. When the guy has an overpair, with that board, Ivey somehow just knows not to raise on the flop. He smooth calls the flop. And folds the turn to the big bet. He just seems to know where hes at time and time again and takes the right lines, and then follows through when his opponents get super creative.

  • Love how all youtubers are poker pro's

  • that dude who said "welcome to the ivy world" lol, good line

  • if was with me the turn and river would be an Ace

  • Mercier was making a donkey play the whole way. Better to fold on bluff than get caught with one.

  • Phil Ivey is the Michael Jordan of Poker.

  • @someperson111 no he aint

  • 7 outs was absolutely not worth it.

    

  • How can you call with 9's there? 0.o Guess Ivey can see Jason's cards cause anyone could have easily had 10's or better there. 99.9999% of players would have mucked on that all-in bet.

  • @H2Prince That's why he's Phil Ivey.

  • @MrAndersonmm There really is no other explanation.LOL I suppose I didnt look at the stacks either. I suppose you can make a 100k call just to see if your right if you have 400K + behind. Not sure what Ivey is playing with here though

  • @MrAndersonmm easy call for ivey or anyone half smart actually

  • @H2Prince not really. flop was weak

  • If a fish would play with the nines on this way, the video would be named: the biggest calling station on the world.

  • I wouldn't call a desperately sighing Ivey a great call. He had absolutely no read on Jason and just went with "I have too much already invested". It's still a good hand, but not great.

  • @AvengerXP I agree with this. MAYBE if Jason had 75k more, Ivey would have folded.

  • Damn Norm McDonald, get Kaplan back!!!!

  • man, i did it at every risk hand, in the poker stars

  • @4Folha4 thats why you are where you are and they are where they are.

  • It's not like Ivey was raising to fold to a 3bet...

  • this is the most well played hand you have ever seen? you must never play poker

  • heh, anyone who complains about the sound of chips shuffling is obviously not a poker player. That sound is like a babbling brook or a gentle breeze to me, so soothing.

  • wtf????

  • They both played well...

  • STOP MOVING YOUR FUCKING CHIPS GODDAMIT

  • @GalexOwns Wooow, get a load of captain bring-down, calm it buddy

  • @bierbuik

    don't you get insane hearing CRIK CRIK CRIK CRIK CRIK CRIK for hours? What the fuck?

  • @GalexOwns Sound like a first world problem to me! :)

  • @bierbuik

    sounds like you're a reddit retard

  • @GalexOwns what's reddit? I have a feeling you spend a lot of time on the internet

  • i love this show

  • is deffinitelty the most chatty table ive ever seen lol

  • Gutsy play. Suprised ivey called there. He must have just read him well.

  • best*

  • Mercier's bet on the flop was weak (28000 vs his raise pre-flop which was 22000) That's when Ivey sensed weakness and must've put him on 2 over cards (AK, AQ ... etc) he wasn't far off and re-raised Mercier and then called all-in. Ivey played f.u.c.king great. Mercier played it weak!

  • @MercuriallMan it's super standard raise size on dry 3bet pots, idc what stakes u play but at nl600 and higher it's perfectly normal size.

  • When will people at tables realize that having your hood on looks pathetic ?

  • Both Jason and Phil played this hand well, but the YouTube user "Hellmunator_1993" would have played it a little better.

  • @VicenzoV

    Never laughed so hard in my life.

  • SIMPLY A RISKY POST FLOP GAMBLE FROM BOTH.. BUT 2 GREAT PLAYERS WHO CAN AFFORD IT!!!

  • This is definitely not well-played, but w/e.

  • welcome to the ivy world, jason!

  • Blah, Blah, Blah.

  • if i had played like Ivey in a similar situation, i'd be up against aces

  • @nybombs yea

  • Of all the people to try that against, why would you pick Phil Ivey? The dude is too sick! He just let him stew until he turned even paler than usual and picked that bluff right off!

    Still, I commend Mercier for the really really gutsy try!

  • imo bad call on the river in the long run, he just winning too much and gambled

  • @SL4yb ask jani , hes a pro

  • @zandaofly Thanks man!

  • thats the sickest part walking away from a table after busting out and knowing if you reload youll probably stay sitting til you bust your roll .. sigh

  • "Can i keep the 5's?"

  • Plus he's not repopping with AK/A4 every single time. He's doing it enough so that if Ivey plays this hand exactly the same way 100 times vs Mercier's range (let's say it's AK,AQ,A4,QQ+) then he loses money.

  • 99 is a bluff catcher in a 3bet pot even if there's a 7 high flop. Mercier never has 88 and almost never has A7 here. How can Ivey tank like that? If he was inducing a bluff then he should have snap called, unless he had second thoughts about his bluff inducement.

  • @stevenalexandersims

    "then he should have snap called" -thanks poker god

  • @stevenalexandersims

    Well, the only explaination that comes to my mind is that it's live poker, so Ivey might have made up his mind that he's gonna raise - call, but he stalled to maybe pick up additional tells. Otherwise you're right - it's either turning the 99 into a bluff, so he should raise - instafold, or raise for value and they it's raise - instacall.

  • IVEY NEEDS TO WIN A MAIN EVENT WSOP THOUGH ....

  • welcome to the Ivey world! Hilarious:)

  • Comment removed

  • good play there.. amazed he got called.. If I was Ivey, I'd be considering the 22k raise pre-flop to be a high pair. There is a reason Ivey is sitting there and not me.

  • Comment removed

  • thats a tough call with with 9s gabe got it spot on he would have played aces or kings exactly the same way

  • @ryanaldinho85 O'rly?

  • @aptand ?? do you want to type an actual word

  • @ryanaldinho85 um no, its not a tough spot you fucking retard. Its basically snap call against aggro-tard Mercier. read a poker book for christs sake

  • @Ripptyde64

    snap call ? lol

    stick to what you know - sucking dick

  • @Ripptyde64 lol you obviously dont have much going for you. bore off

  • pretty standard stuff

  • lol i love this guy. welcome to the ivey world jason

  • @heyJustephan

    too bad he got fired from the show because AJ couldn't stand him

  • all of u are fucking immatures dicks...whats so nice about youtube bullies ?? waking up every morning , sitting infront of the computer waiting to reply youtube comments...REAL ASSHOLE !

  • Phil Laak at 3:45 is hilarious... because he knows what a crazy good call it was.

  • the most saddest ,,nice hand"

  • it was a polarised range but not to many hands on the weak site imo

  • lol at pot committed. if Mercier has a overpair and even some hands lik this in his range he can throw it away. wonder if he catched sth out of mercier pokerface

  • You can tell Mercier had a lot riding on that buy-in. The way everyone reacts when he leaves is like somebody died.

  • All you noobs are making silly amateur comments. Ivey called because he was POT COMMITTED, plain and simple.

  • NOT so impressive

  • Ivey folding when not on tv?

  • hahahahaha @ welcome to the Ivey world Jason

  • with such a dry board, it makes no sence that Jason would push all in, if he had aces or kings, he wouldnt be worried about any draw, so he would play it slower, not push all in

  • @Khaminor your analysis is a little abc to be honest. I mean against top players you cant play standard poker. I think Jason made a great play, but an unbelievable call by Ivey.

  • mb thought JASON is playing on pokerstars online and get on river one 5 or A... hahahaha all innn wow hahahahahaah

  • actually a fucking INSANE call

  • come on what a stupid call by ivey.jesus

  • @tsias10 And that 'stupid' call made him over $200k.

  • Ivey is an idiot for just calling his pocet 9's should of reraised!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @BigAnge69 I guess you could do better. Oh wait where are the clips of you beating Phil Ivey?

  • @BigAnge69 he's an idiot, and that's why he won all of Jason's money

  • @BigAnge69 pocket 9's is not that good of a hand to re-raise a raise from a pot with already 3 people on it. Phil probably thought he would be behind pre-flop

  • the guy folded 7 2 i would of been all in and hit two pair on the flop

  • @BigAnge69 you would call 7 2 offsuits....

  • i would have folded lol

  • what a well played bluff .. insted of good pot odds, cand understand iveys call ...

  • 72 higth )))

  • Comment removed

  • hehe ^^

  • I don't see how it was good play by Mercier, well I do in one sense because his hand is consistent, raises pre-flop then bet then re-raised but in another sense he made a big mistake when he re-raised and his opponent called. You have to be confident your opponent is going to fold when you make a move thats practically a pure bluff.

    Great play by Phil though.

  • Upon Phil seeing the flop (2,3,7)... what could he have thought Jason had that made him go all in at that point, and yet also had him betting big pre-flop? Seems an easy call. Much more likely he's bluffing.

  • @hawaiidispenser aces lol

    and he would have played the same with aces

    i dont know how he called

  • @TheBarbahaba lol you're right, I missed that. Do you think Phil could intuit something about Jason to make the call, or was Phil just taking a chance on what was basically a coin flip?

  • @hawaiidispenser well he did muck his kk when brian booth bluffed him on season 3

    but he knew mercier reputation +it was near the end of the day

    you have to give phil the benefit of the doubt since you havnt seen him calling in this situation to a higher pair ,,,,, ever i mean i dont remember

    i would guess it was an educated calculated guess considering the person he was playing with and the money he had commited tough if mercier has a higher pair it really is a bad call,,,, dont know how

  • phil ivey + full tilt poker = thief

  • Comments and the on screen graphics indicate 7 outs, while we all saw the 5c mucked by Elezra, making it 6 outs. If we SEE the card, using these table cams, then we KNOW it cannot be an out. Imagine the controversy if we ever see the card mucked, then see it river.

  • @MarkH10

    cards we see mucked are a still possibility in players' view, hence they consider them still to be in play. so we calculate probabilities from their point of view. not ours.

  • @quicksilvy agreed...even though that wont stop all the arm chair poker players

  • 0:33 Alec Baldwin :D

  • you need to see more poker cause this hand isnt all that out of the ordinary

  • @thejustintimes IMHO the hand at the end of this episode with Ivey and Dwan is the finest hand of professional poker that I have ever seen

  • I think it wasn't the play that went wrong. It maybe just Ivey didn't believed he has hand in the beginning and he goes with his gut feeling. At their level, Ivey knows this kind of play is possible, so he called it. Instead going with what seems to be logic fold.

  • wana run it twice?

  • @daddygreenjeens I have two 9's [chump], I only want to run it once.

  • overpair... come on.. thast easy :P

  • i like the way negreanu is silently talking to his cash with his eyes at the beginning

  • 0:57 seems that Gus is throwing his hand away in a hight, that would show his hand to everybody wtf :S

  • @11998888 YEAH maybe, Gus threw the cards in front of him though. Can't imagine Ivey or Mercier seeing that from their seat position.

  • "1 2 3 4 shoe, you're up a thousand." must be nice

  • They say 7 outs because they don't always know who had what, there could be folded hands you didn't see

  • nothing extraordinary about that hand really

  • He actually had 6 outs in the flop. Eli Elezra folded 9-5 of clubs pre-flop. And on the turn he picked up 3 more outs (three 6's) since Gus folded Q-6 pre-flop.

  • @Rickypr18 r u stupid?

  • @spammysr no... Are you?

  • @Rickypr18

    Uh I want you to explain how the 8 of clubs gives him 3 more outs. You are right about only have 6 outs though.

  • @DanSaw120285 For some odd reason I changed Jason's hand to 9-5 on the turn...

  • most well? ever heard of the word "best?"

  • lol Mercier is such a douche in defeat. Any other HS player would have given those 5 dollar chips to the dealer.

  • @PiwaiGee maybe he needed it

  • How do you calculate fold equity? Always wondered

  • @ClaudioSanchezCC it's just the percentage of time you expect your opponent to fold. Say you expect your opponent to fold 2 out of 10 times you raise or go all in, you have 20% fold equity. So if you bet with a draw like Jasons you can win the 32 percent of the time your called plus the 20% of the time your opponent folds making it a plus EV bet. It's based on your read and is an approximation.

  • @phraedusthamusicdigr Ahh so is this a type of calculation for variance play then? could come in use for my style of play, probably worth a look in.

    Guessing it takes a decent knowledge of how to put people on a range too

  • he should have said "Welcome to the ivey league" its a better dig n he mightve reloaded

  • thought he said "welcome to the Ivey ward"

  • If only Laak had called to see the flop :P

  • Jason is good.

  • welcome to the ivey world jason....

    nice, nice quote

    :)

  • WELCOME TO THE IVEY WORLD 

  • @TheCliclaclo yep, on his period! raise to find out wheres he's at, AND call shove xD

  • Ivey can also gamble as much as he does cause he does not use his own money, he uses FTP players money!

  • I think that is bullshit! The agreement of running it 1,2,3,4 times should be made b4 you see your opponents hand face up! Ivey sees what Mercier has and then says 1 time! Very shady! I know everyone says Ivey usually only runs it once, but in this hand Ivey seem held back and not super confident in his call, but as soon as he sees the A4 he is like, 1 time!

  • @rico305305 Ivey always runs it once, no exceptions so it really doesn't matter. Check my channel for the video "Howard Coward" to see Lederer sweating an interview about FTP :)

  • honestly i dont even understand iveys call, because jason plays the hand so well...wonder what made him call...prolly his deep enough bankroll lol

  • @tschuggggi it's rainbow, i think he would have folded easily if it was the same suit on the deck. I would have played the hand the same way, 2-3-7 isn't much of a threat. Flopping a straight is highly unlikely and if jason had 10s JJ QQ KK he would have re-raised.

  • @mQtek first of all jason re-raises preflop AND post-flop...second of all if ivey thinks jason would play ANY pair like he did, ivey has less than 40% equity on the flop, which is terrible shape...and its very very unlikely in my opinion that jason would ship with 44 55 66 there so that cuts ivey equity in half...basically his call represents calling with 22 when your oponent has AA face up...now that i think about it i can understand the call even less....

  • Most well played TV poker hand IVEY seen

  • @hfakinha Tiger Woods of poker is a pretty big name to play up to, and big plays like these only makes that true

  • NiCE!!

  • Do I get to keep the 5s? Reputation.. ruined!

  • @censortube09 it was a joke

  • @stants111 Watching the moment again, you could be right. But still not convinced, first impression is what counts I guess :)

  • Anyone who says jason was outplayed this hand is way off. If you read phils body language he's almost sure that hes drawing to two outs but calls anyways because it's 100k more to win 400k, along with the fact that there's a sleight chance jason has AK, AQ, or 88. Jason played the hand damn well, but he played it against someone who is adequately staked for the game. He gets 95 percent of the players in HSP to lay that hand down there but iveys rich.

  • @shane31lv i disagree - ivey raised the flop as a "merge" or "protection/information" raise, which is only optimally done when hero (ivey) expects villain (mercier) to make a move, via float or re-raise. dwan did the same thing to minieri with kto on a t-high flop.

  • @shane31lv i disagree - ivey raised the flop as a "merge" or "protection/information" raise, which is only optimally done when hero (ivey) expects villain (mercier) to make a move, via float or re-raise. dwan did the same thing to minieri with kto on a t-high flop. its actually a sick play by ivey. he only seemed unsure because it was such a sick play and also it was kind of an angle cause ivey doesn't actually say "call" when he motions with his chips until he sees mercier look uncomfortable

  • @shane31lv so i'm guessing when he folded the kk to brad booth when he bluffed was cause he wasnt rich enough in season 3 ?

    plz be quiet ok?

  • "welcome to Ivey's world" lol
