Jason Mercier Awesome Call! WCOOP-42 $1,050 Event 9/20/2010 Pokerstars

[Nochibou1]

100 big blinds, it's not awesome at all.

[pkrkid42]

It's really annoying when these youtube retards belittle the call, or any call like this. Comments like that just shouldn't be allowed.

[PLOpro1]

pretty standard but still nice call by jason

[RoyMunsoned]

@PLOpro1 lol ya im sure u and ur $5 sng friends make that call all the time ;)

[nybombs]

@PLOpro1 lol standard? Even in cash game this call isn't "easy"

[thefrigidness]

it's a courageous and ballsy call but incredibly reckless ... with a massive over raise of 1 million your opponent has at least a flush draw.

[thespacialone]

@thefrigidness ???????????

[alive2k7]

Terribad call imo, his opponent has air but has 39,3% equity though, his opponent never has complete air that deep, so this KJ is one of the worst hands (he could bluff with KQ too) he could bluff shove with 2 overs+ a gutshot + a bd flush, Jason is flipping against a QJ hand also

[kahnnnnn]

lol worst get it in ever 70bbs deep

[flastatesoldier]

not thaaaat sick at all... why shove a 10 there? JJ+ is the only scare

this would be sicker without the Ad. next

[alive2k7]

@flastatesoldier

The Ad gives Jason a bit more of equity (with his BD nut flush) but takes off his opponent's range all his nut flush draws so i would say that doesn't change much his equity against his opponent's range (your opponent will have a draw less often, so he has more made hands, but you add 4 or 5% equity since you're holding the Ad in your hand)

[flastatesoldier]

@alive2k7 true, the 50 bb+ overbet is so polarized so Ad makes his opponents range even more skewed toward bluffs. 10 flats the CR and 10 9 or set = gg. I dont hate the play at lower high stakes but against one of the top 5 tourney players in the world, check back that board happily

[KevinDorner]

What a call ^^ He was only able to beat a bluff.. and his opponent was bluffing. How the heck do those pros always know that?

[Duzykutas]

If i make that call on PS the K just rolls off on the turn every time, for Jason he hits the ace. Sick life

[srsinvest]

@Duzykutas

If I make that call, the guy would have flopped top set. lol

[DukeBalaor]

It was awesom call, Mercier must had read there and make right decision. But OK. Everyone see poker different. He was ahead and call, that is right play.

[HoevdingenDK]

it was a good call your all donks

[EddyCrasher]

Was that real money?

[Proovable]

@EddyCrasher tournament, so yes real money but not cash game

[slimshady617]

@EddyCrasher loool

[matttheduck]

@EddyCrasher 1050 buy in this deep you are looking at 100,000's up for stakes easy!!

[WaspSnG]

@Finnythegoose You're kidding right?

[ChipGod147]

@Finnythegoose HAHAHAHAH WOW YOU FUCKING RETARD!!!!! LMFAO!

[mil3n40o]

does anyone know the song ?

[dirtylos30]

why was this video even posted?

[ron126]

wtf - -"

[thefrigidness]

the bigger your bankroll the better of a player u can be !!! it's all about risk vs reward .. i push all in with AK 100 percent of the time cuz half the time im gonna win .. simple math

[ggnub100]

@thefrigidness that's why you have to play it like it's not money. the bigger your bankroll, the more fear you can instill at higher stakes.

[WaspSnG]

@thefrigidness Well if you push AK 100% of the time regardless, you're a bad player and a blind horse.

[Strange0ne]

@thefrigidness Buzzz (risk) buzzzz (reward)buzzzz (bankroll bigger better player you can be) buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz words! You have no idea what your talking about!

[lukessummerguitar]

@thefrigidness

Ha ha - your kidding..right?

[kemoblue4u]

whats so awesome about it?

[Noogaiii]

@kemoblue4u

clearly calling an all in with middle pair is standard in your eyes..i love fish like you :) ty for playing poker

[kemoblue4u]

@Noogaiii I didn't say it was standard moron. I just don't see what's so "AWESOME!" about it. Please explain to me what makes this an "AWESOME!" call. Break it down for me "shark" HA!

[Noogaiii]

@kemoblue4u i never said i was a poker shark now but i know enough about poker to know that you shouldnt call an all in with middle pair when you are both deep stacked..this was a sick call,he could have had pocket JJ,or even a bigger overpair..maybe A10

[jiamonx2]

@kemoblue4u the guy shoved 50 something bigs

[DukeBalaor]

@kemoblue4u Call over milion raise ( 50BB ) with second pair on flop? Awesome.

[BigCrunchyLiver]

@kemoblue4u That is a pretty awesome call, a high percentage of his stack he calls a 3bet all in with 2nd pair, pretty sick

[bamboo]

lol at jelous troll underneath me

[mickymacky02]

when u have hella money and many more tourneys waiting for u. the ability to look smart and make "great calls" is much easier. poker is about volume and these poker "pros" have an unlimited amount of it. they all think they are gods gift to the game, but theyre just average players (it is very hard to become better than an average player) with a huge backing. ps and ft pay for all theyre tourneys. so there is no pressure at all. easy to play "good" and look "smart"

[Amaru19]

@mickymacky02 pretty sure they aren't backed by ps in online tournies. Plus he won what, 3 majors before getting signed? Imo you aren't wrong but maybe you're picking on the wrong guy in Jason, he's awesome.

[smokehouse7]

thats not awesome



[curuzu]

@smokehouse7 Now Im sure ur a bingo player

[JoZuE500]

he won
