Antonio Esfandiari folds straight flush against Daniel Negreanu

[A14NBO1]

But if you had just a 6 of spades that would be the best hand that could be made. That's why he referred to it as the stone cold nuts.

[A14NBO1]

6/7 spades is the nuts on that board.

[nioor]

The comment section is a joke. I cant believe people are arguing what's nuts in this situation. The biggest hand possible is a 7-high straight flush, the absolute nuts is the 6 of spades.

[stevie179]

lol the 7 of spades would be useless if u werent also holding the 6 of spades....

is that so hard to understand?

[bigcherry99]

@TheJeffersen8 knows the key to this entire hand

[apocbible]

this is misleading bullshit

i fold

[unothisshit2010]

bluff

[agynessfitz]

stfu howard and give me my money back!

[noreialover]

The coninuation bet was stupid,check-call would be smarter!!!

[ukstevey]

cant fold there to 1 possible card.

[TheJeffersen8]

the only 2 cards you need is 6 and 7 of spades, you have those you have the absolute

stone cold nuts

[bigcherry99]

@TheJeffersen8 you are absolutely right!

.

everyone needs to learn their poker from you!

[wintensity]

chopping the pot? STONE COLD NUTS? I KNOW NOTHING OF WHAT IS BEING SAID

[TheAmericanDane]

@wintensity chopping the pot: sharing it between the two of them because two players have the same hand. stone cold nuts: the best hand u can possibly make with the cards that are out there, and the two in your hand. So if the flop was 10 hearts J hearts Q hearts the stone cold nuts would be to have Khearts Ahearts in your hand. hope this helped.

[ComfortableLate]

@wintensity chopping the pot means it's a tie and players split the chips on the table and nuts in poker means the best possible hand given the cards dealt.

[mdtalley]

You sat there with your little camcorder and taped this right off your television, didn't you?

[theBrickCity1986]

the nuts is 67 spades*

[no1diamondgeezer]

@theBrickCity1986 yes but if one player has the 6 of spades the other cant have 6 7 of spades so just the 6 is the nuts

[theBrickCity1986]

@no1diamondgeezer oh yes, Duh.

[SuperJuiceman11]

@no1diamondgeezer

wow the fact that you had to explain that, your a fuking idot, thanks for clearing up this video for the preschoolers out there

[DrugzIMBAgueTTe]

@no1diamondgeezer

-___--

if : A) holds 6 spades ,B) cant hold 6 ,7 of spades as a reason.- correct

if : A) holds 6 of spades, there is a possibility for A) to hold 7 of spades as second card

so 6,7 of spades = nuts

q.e.d.

[TheJeffersen8]

@DrugzIMBAgueTTe absolutely !!!!!!! correct !!!!! 3 and a 4 and a 5 and a 6 and a 7 !!!!!!

downtown joe brown nuts baby !!!!

[no1diamondgeezer]

@DrugzIMBAgueTTe yes i know 6 is the nuts and 6 7 is nuts.. i am trying to say to all the dumb people out there he only needs the 6 of spades for the nuts. nothing can beat that hand. THE NUTS means your hand is the best and cant be beat. if he had only the 6 he cant be beat. (THE NUTS)

[DrugzIMBAgueTTe]

@no1diamondgeezer

well normally we dont need to discuss about this. because if :

A) holds 6 of spades - and makes his mind about

if B) can beat him.

then A) has tourette-syndrom and an IQ about 47 - so I agree with you.

[Lefevre1966]

@theBrickCity1986 the nuts is just a 6s and any other card in your hand

[ufftatabummbumm]

on pokerstars

player 1 - K of spades

player 2 - 22

player 3 - 33

player 4 - 67

palyer 5 - 6 of spades

[ddpsp]

I probably would have called there just to see Daniel's hand.

[TheAmericanDane]

@ddpsp yea defo i agree! beacuse antonio raised he kind of invited daniel to represent the 6s and put in that re-raise. too much respect shown to daniel here from antonio.

[jdstreet2]

you lose to one card...6 of spdaes..it's an easy call...whart a f.aggot retard

[bmnxtx]

@jdstreet2 With comment like that, That's why they're million dollar poker players.. and your a youtube knob jokey.

[250hollatchcabro]

@jdstreet2 how is he a faggot retard just for not calling? he is a pro, he made a choice to not call, that doesn't make him a faggot or retarded.

[koloie]

everyone's a poker pro on youtube. haha

[jtCardMagic]

to everyone saying 6s 7s would have been the nuts, no its not the nuts is simply the best hand that absolutely gaurantees victory, in this case have 6s cos if you are holding the 6s there is no card in the deck that will beat you when the 2345 are sitting on the table so while 6/7 is the best possibly hand its not the nuts because just the 6 alone would gaurantee you winning the hand.

[bigcherry99]

@jtCardMagic the 'extra-special nuts' means BEST POSSIBLE HAND

.

3s 4s 5s 6s 7s is the best possible hand, hence its the 'mega-nuts'

[jtCardMagic]

@bigcherry99 no there is no different levels of the nuts, having the nuts is having a hand that is unbeatable no matter what cards the other players could be holding... which means if in this situation you are holding the 6s and the 5h you are still holding the winning hand gauranteed, this is the nuts, if you are holding the 6/7s its a stronger hand but no more the nuts as just the 6s.. this is the point you are missing. because if I was holding the 6s regardless of my other card I cannot lose.

[phobiazzzero]

stone cold nuts is 67 of spades

[sherpajones]

@phobiazzzero No, stone cold is just the 6. The 7 is useless without the 6, and even though 67 would make a 7 high flush, it is a moot point.

[bigcherry99]

@phobiazzzero i agree with you

[250hollatchcabro]

tom dawn would have re raised all in

[JoEL2point0]

how do you not call 3k? What a shitty fold.

[250hollatchcabro]

@JoEL2point0 it was 6k call to win 3k of his own money back, good fold, bad position.

[JoEL2point0]

@250hollatchcabro They were chopping the pot. Negreanu didn't have shit.

[250hollatchcabro]

@JoEL2point0 ya no shit it was a chop pot , negreanu had positioning to make a big bet so it wouldn't be worth looking him up just to get his money back

[JoEL2point0]

@250hollatchcabro Yes it would.....he gets his money back. Why wouldn't you want your money back?

[TheLastFraudster]

So we don't get to see what Daniel had??

[westbororapist]

@TheLastFraudster if daniel didn't have the 6 i doubt he woulda raised

[BACKBONEOFFICIAL]

check my song out on my channel...

[Nelsonrc24]

@BACKBONEOFFICIAL lol

[BACKBONEOFFICIAL]

@Nelsonrc24 lol, while im checking out my poker vids, might aswell let em know...

[endlessmountain]

he didn't have it.. it was 1 in 6,000 or so that he did based on how daniel looked.

[Idlevice]

@RentIsToDamnHigh I'd call, too but it's easy for him to have 6s. Limp; just wants to see a cheap flop. If he made a flush or just picked up a draw, he could flat call on the flop but he's more likely to bet the draw IMO, so he could have made a flush on the flop and the 6S could have been one of his cards. Could even have been 67S.

[TheJeffersen8]

Guaranteed the loaded gun (aka the 7 of spades) is alive and well in this hand

[Sandwolf666]

@TheJeffersen8 How,pray tell,is the 7 of spades the loaded gun here?

[TheJeffersen8]

@Sandwolf666 because without it you dont have the stone cold steve austin nuts,

3,4,5,6, drum roll please ..... and the 7 of spades !

[Sandwolf666]

@TheJeffersen8

Actually the nuts in this case(stone cold or otherwise) is the 6 of spades. If i have the 6 of spades I cant be beaten by a single card in the deck. The nuts is the one hand that cant be beaten no matter what ur opponet holds so as long as i have the 6 of spades u can have the 7(or any other for that matter) i know i cant lose.

But i feel obligated to inform u,u havent answered my question,how is the 7 of spades the loaded gun here? without the 6 its a 7 high flush

[TheJeffersen8]

@Sandwolf666 what is so hard for yourself and others like you to comprehend, would you rather open up 2,3,4,5,6 or 3,4,5,6,7 ??

[TheJeffersen8]

@Sandwolf666 and in response to your other quiery, the 7 of spades is the whole catalyst to this equation. without it, you nor anyone else will make it add up to the nexus of the univese nuts !!!!!

[Sandwolf666]

@TheJeffersen8 to b perfectly honest i dont give a toss if i have 23456 or 34567 so long as i have the 6 in this situation. The "loaded gun" as you like to say is the 6 here not the 7,the six makes the nuts the 7 makes it more impressive. put it this way,im negreanu ur esfandiari,i have the 6 ur hand contains the 7. Pray tell who wins?

Then imagine u still have the 7 but the 6 was exposed preflop when someone folded. Now as logically as u can explain why the 7 is the "loaded gun"

[bigcherry99]

@Sandwolf666 the 7s is the key

[Sandwolf666]

@bigcherry99

Again how?? Without the 6 of spades the 7 is useless

[TheJeffersen8]

@Sandwolf666 you imbeciles, imagine this ... you look down at your first card.....oh hello 7 of spades, peek at the next one ...... its a black 6....of....spades!!!! boom!!!!! call

a cab its all over nuts !!!!

[guypursin]

@Sandwolf666 Actually that last part isn't true.. It wouldn't be a 7 high flush...

[Sandwolf666]

@guypursin No your right my apologises,i phrased that wrong. If u only have the 7 you have a flush A7543. So i guess you could say its an A7 high flush,but since the ace is on the board i would call it a 7 high flush purely to be easy.

[johnnybones312]

@Sandwolf666 If you had the 7 of spades or any other spade aside from the 6 you would still have a 5 high straight flush. The 7 would not play.

[tmoney0728]

@TheJeffersen8 your an idiot and know nothing about poker

[bigcherry99]

@tmoney0728 jefferson is a poker expert. YOU are the one who doesnt anything!

[gjnice21]

@TheJeffersen8

you are retarded

[RentIsToDamnHigh]

and any suited hand is most likely raising pre, like 67s; definitely any A6

[RentIsToDamnHigh]

If he has some sort of Off-suit hand with the 6s, I don't see him calling the flop unless he's floating; possible.

[RentIsToDamnHigh]

Maybe something like Ks6s.. I have no idea ;\ very strange hand.

[oskarveliky]

I dont find Antonio Esfandiari a too good player. Tom Dwan , Gus Hansen, Greg Raymer, Phil Laak are at a much higher level in my eyes.

[RentIsToDamnHigh]

@oskarveliky lol Phil Laak.

[TheJeffersen8]

no 7 of spades and your in a world of hurt

[JohnF30Music]

@TheJeffersen8 7 of spades is useless here. it's not part of the straight flush

[TheJeffersen8]

@JohnF30Music if you hold 6,7 of spades you better believe its part of the straight flush. the holy grail of the nuts

[bigcherry99]

@TheJeffersen8 @JohnF30Music the best possible hand here is 3s 4s 5s 6s 7s

.

7s would be the 'absolute undeniable nuts'

[Sandwolf666]

@bigcherry99

Not without the 6 though and thats what TheJeffersen8 doesnt seem to realise

[Bel1990Bel]

Its weird. Im pretty sure that Ive seen a version of this where they WERE showing their hole cards, and if remember correctly neither of them had a 6 or 7. I dont understand why this version is without the hole cards! O_o

[bigcherry99]

@Bel1990Bel neither of them have the all-important 7s

[Bel1990Bel]

@bigcherry99 What do you mean by all-important 7s. I think that 6s is more important! A 7s alone doesnt give you a straightflush!

[YouCoachPoker]

i hate folding.

[alanelmore94]

pause @ 1:16

are you fucking kidding me ?

[TranceSuperWave]

Antonio looks like a banana.

[superchef78]

Why does it say he folds a straight flush when no one knows? They don't show the cards. 

[ruarihennessy1]

@superchef78 id iot

[superchef78]

@ruarihennessy1 Why are you calling me an idiot? There's still no actual way to PROVE that either of them had a straight flush, because we cannot see their hole cards. ; )

Think logically.

[bigcherry99]

@superchef78 neither of them have the 6s or 7s. FACT!

[superchef78]

@bigcherry99 How do you know?

[bigcherry99]

@superchef78 look at daniels facial expression, tone of voice + body language after the hand when he says 'what do you want from me?'

.

Esfandiari obviously wouldnt have folded if he had the 6s + 7s

[superchef78]

@bigcherry99 If he obviously wouldn't have folded them (ie the 6s/7s), why does the video title say "Antonio Esfandiari folds straight flush against Daniel Negreanu"? If what you say is true (ie that he did NOT have the 6s/7s), then why does the title say that? I think it is a misleading title.

[bigcherry99]

@superchef78 Esfandiari folded a straight flush. you can see it on the board for yourself. Esfandari even says in the video 'I've never laid down a straight flush before'

[minhbeo]

@bigcherry99 The board A2345 is already a straight flush dude. Esfandari said that was probably a joke, and then he is pro, he would not be stupid to fold if he has 6. You maybe...

[minhbeo]

@bigcherry99 He only need 6 dude.

[TheClavemaster]

@superchef78 what do you mean there's no actual way to prove that either of them had a straight flush? It's staring you in the face! The board is A2345 of spades... A STRAIGHT FLUSH.

[superchef78]

@TheClavemaster I meant there was no way to prove that he has the 6s or the 7s. That both players 'have' a straight flush is indisputable.

And thanks for being cordial in response to my apparent short-sightedness

[TheJeffersen8]

here`s one to test your theory, I`ll take the 6 and 7 of spades. Now take as many decks as you want to beat that hand ! I wont hold my breath waiting for you to come up with a better hand

[TheJeffersen8]

if antonio re raised wouldnt daniel have to give him credit with having the 6,7 ?

[lamdash]

This video demonstrates with stunning clarity the power of position.

[pitoakatheone]

well i dont think negreanu had the 6 cuz if he did he would have raised minimum to atleast get some chips... however negranau is a very good reader, and he probably knew esfandiari was bluffin.

[bigapplebucky]

So did he have the six of spades or not? Did anyone read what Daniel said after the session?

[Skillet1905]

If Daniel had the 6 of spades he would go all in

[alexis08sgr]

@Skillet1905 if he was all in, antonio folded too, and if he had de 6 of spades i think the best he can do was raise 10k or somthing like that, thats what he did... Daniel Rules... anyways

[meaningoflove7]

@Skillet1905 you are not good poker player i presume..see theyre poker pros antonio and daniel. why would you go all in if you have 6 spades, that basically is saying you have 6 of spades. why i think is daniel try to bait antonio in.

[MrUberSpanky]

@Skillet1905 I love n00bs that overbet their hands saying I have the stonecold nuts. well thank you sir for the easy fold

[narucy56]

1.3K pot, over bet 3K, but get raise to 9K,,, yup He have definitively 6s.

Over bet is not good play almost every time :|

[bigcherry99]

the best way to understand this play to figure out what kind of nuts these two players were holding....

.

suggestions please!

[utoobe656]

@bigcherry99

you are way too stupid man

[TheJeffersen8]

how very incorrect, doesnt the 5,6 have a voice if your holding the a4

[MikeLabrow]

The best way to understand it is the six of spades is the 'stone cold nuts', and the 67s is 'the nuts'. The nuts is the best hand, the stone cold nuts would be having the best possible hand knowing that the absolute nuts cannot be achieved because you're holding one of the cards in your hand. For example on a board of AA234, the absolute nuts would be AA but if you have A4 that's the stone cold nuts.

[belialLiar]

@MikeLabrow nope in ur example the stone cold nuts would be the 5 of the same suit as 234 and one of the Ace xaxaxaxa

[omnishakira]

@MikeLabrow cool story bro. now go back to your nl5 tables

[bigcherry99]

@omnishakira @MikeLabrow

.

you guys want to have the stone cold nuts?

.

3s 4s 5s 6s 7s

[Khaminor]

@MikeLabrow wow i thought it was just an expression, thanks for the info

[Morf1992]

@MikeLabrow Only the 6 was the nuts...

[PABL0ESCOBAR]

why did Antonio bet on the river??? terrible...

[bigcherry99]

WORST FOLD EVER!!!!!!

[Puls4rt]

he's very tired for sure.

[Tehui1974]

Terrible fold by Antonio.

[IceCreeeaaam]

6K for 6.7K? Come on! Call it.

[naniki12345]

People is stupid or powerfull trolls....

[getduloh]

The lone six of spades is indeed "THE NUTS" in this case, because if you have it in your hand, it is impossible for your opponent to have the 6spades & 7spades... alas, "6 of spades is the nuts"

[ryguy2598]

@getduloh

good point

[WaspSnG]

@getduloh Don't even bother mate. I watched this video around a year ago for the first time and got into the same arguement.Some people are just retarded.

[bigcherry99]

@WaspSnG @getduloh i know seriously. some people just dont understand that the 7s would give the 'absolute nuts'

.

i'm tired of explaining it to them!

[laufenberg106]

@bigcherry99

you drop kick, if you have the 6 of spades its the absolute nuts because clearly the other person cant have another 6 of spades and 7 you dumb sack of shit.

[Jairzinho121]

@getduloh thnx for that idiot

[TheJeffersen8]

what would you rather have in your hand the 6s on its own ?

or the ``welcome to gravy town nuts`` being the 6 and SEVEN of spades

i rest my case

[Sondr3h]

"Nuts" is the definition of a hand that can't be beat, not the definition of the best possible hand on the table. Holding both 6 and 7 of spades on this table is obviously the best possible hand, but having just the 6 of spades would still be nuts, because only one player can have that card.

[pedrillolizarazo]

@Sondr3h u can a straight on the flop being that the nuts and then lose to a flush on the turn or river

[Harresd]

@Sondr3h Nuts is not the definition of a hand that cant be beat. The nuts is a hand that is CURRENTLY the best hand possible, but is abled to lose when more cards come. What you are refering to is often called "stonecold nuts" or "absolute nuts".

[gnayiz]

seriously the donks just dont get the point do they ? if you have the 6 of spades you ALREADY have the nuts. the 7 of spades dont even come into the FUCKING PLAY. cant u guys fucking understand already. screw youtube pros.

[vjm3]

Everyone's an expert poker player in the youtube comments.

[bigcherry99]

Esfandiari is a great player, but on this hand he was a donk

.

of course negreanu doesnt have the 6s 7s! FFS!

.

calculate the odds of As-6s appearing, then calculate Esfandiari betting $6k to get his $3k back

.

can't believe Esfandiari didnt make that bet!

[dieselboy87]

u aint got the nuts without the 7 of spades, it is important

[VF5]

@dieselboy87 You dont need the 7 of sade...just the 6 of spade would be the nut :P

[fatdog5000]

bigcherry99 is bluffing... he/she completely understands

[Drecon84]

I could never fold in that spot. I think maybe Antonio was influenced with Daniels genuine amazement that he would bet at it. He completely lost his stance there for a second.

[Anduril6000]

the best thing about this video is to read the retarded comments people make.

[TheJeffersen8]

the 7 of spades is key here. without it there are no nuts to speak of

[kookoon]

Antonio might have 6 but negreu might have 6-7

good fold

[Tvlinks2011]

@kookoon didn't know there was two 6 of spades in the pack... idiot

[kookoon]

@Tvlinks2011 wtf who are you?

why are you talking to me?

donk

[bglick]

Lol @bigcherry99 and all the other retards who think there can be two 6 of spades in the deck. If you have the 6s then no matter what you have the nuts. @bigcherry99 how can 2 people have the 6 of spades? hahahahaha retard

[T1memaster]

Very simple to those that don't get it, 6 of spades is the nuts, the 7 of spades doesnt matter because if you have the 6 of spades that means the other guy doesn't, therefore the 7 of spades doesnt matter.

[bigcherry99]

@T1memaster of course it matters! you dont even know which player is holding the 7s!

[Vague1988]

@bigcherry99

ok i have the 6 of spades and the k of clubs names one othewr possible hand that can beat me with that board while i have those cards( or any random card with the 6 of spades) when you realise that you cant please STFU

[HarPlayer]

Neither 1 of them had it or else 1 would have bet n when called the card would have been turn faster than Superman can fly ( just so 1 of them can talk S*** )or a check raise .

[LOLFLUSHDRAW]

big cherry is trolling everyone lol

[Iammorph]

Video freezes when Esfandiari laughs. Is some kind of magician's trick?

[RubberClits]

6 of spades is the absolute nuts here. 7 6 of spades is the same thing. Because if you have the 6 of spades, you can not be beaten.

[mp621]

Because if u have the 7 of spades alone u do not have the nuts u need the 6 of spades to start with

[mattyh50]

Haha, I have a friend who called two all ins with 8 high with QQ7QQ on the board, the other two players both had ace high, he had no idea the high card plays with quads

[IamCalvinmcnizzle]

@mattyh50 it doesnt

[staywithaces1984]

yea i woulda laughed too its so sick...
