AKs vs. AKs Bad Beat - World Series of Poker 2009 WSOP

[b112895]

how much did he cash?

[jismjacket]

Balmigere & Saout are great french poker players!

[quiksilwerdude]

i just dont like the push neither the instacall.. 3bet 450k 4bet shove 4M? srsly wtf?

[TheKeisari]

that's in my opinion even worse than just losing to a smaller pocket pair etc. the other day I was busted out from a tournament with my AQs vs AQos. That sucked.

[mr2gti]

If this were the other way, the loser would of acted - as normal - like a spoilt bitch!

[pimpischhh]

if he would've won he would've died. the next wsop it was told that he went to hospital a few minutes after losing.

[kamakazimike]

@pimpischhh different player mate

[lewnik69]

that french player shows alot of class right here...amateur and conducted himself professionally. so did the guy who lost...well played both of them. Imagine Phil Hellmuth reaction if this happened we would have LIFT OFF!!!

[vodoochile69]

Jude law play poker ??? ^^

[djkenzorr]

get rid of this fukin ads i cant see a thing

[AcLegend97]

if that was phil helmuth, he would have probably thrown the table away

[brunoproducer]

hate balmigeres reactions throughout the whole hand

[smithy5pg]

@brunoproducer

what are you on about, the guy did nothing wrong... didnt call out for a spade or anything and looked embrassed at the end

[brunoproducer]

@smithy5pg don't know, the faces he puts, just don't like it. just my first impression of him though lol :) he hasn't't done anything wrong

[XvxGOODMUSICxvX]

AK is over rated- bunch of donks.

[STFC010]

@XvxGOODMUSICxvX your making loads of money playing poker i take it. idiot

[AlexLaslau]

hey look i see Joe Cada the champion ...lol:))

[laffizzle]

RAYMER WINS IT ALL!

[curuzu]

@laffizzle CADA

[jamesod7]

It is. 97% of the time they're chopping.

[cadetleader]

is it really a bad beat if its a complete coin flip?

[lhipsher]

1:21-1:23 not that there's anything wrong with that

[CosmicSPC]

gay has won!

[redhidus]

phil helmuth would say"Honey! this idiot went all in with AKs!! i mean... "

[theNonexistentKnight]

how can the percentages be 60/40 before the river?

[serratop]

@theNonexistentKnight Flush draw

[hkrickywu]

@theNonexistentKnight the percentages included the event which they both win

[wsopzx]

@theNonexistentKnight unless a spade comes its a chop

[Cuzar11]

@theNonexistentKnight

because balmigore had a flush draw, derp

[ggnub100]

LOL

[mrKdiggs21]

dick head

[mrKdiggs21]

YOU STUPID?

[mrKdiggs21]

thats not a bad beat

[badboyodee86]

@mrKdiggs21 it is a pretty bad beat. i had aces shoved got called by the other 2 aces and matey hit the flush now that sucked ass thats was $125 pot

[mrKdiggs21]

@badboyodee86 ya i hear you, but im just saying a bad beat is when you are winning by a mile but then the other guy hit's his 'one or two outter' on the river to win the hand.

in this case and your case, it was basically a coin flip

[Taroxus]

@mrKdiggs21 this is a bad beat, only 1.5% of the time will dennis lose the hand

[scoobyj2002]

Imagine if that were Phil Hellmuth

[MAMA67]

"OHHH! Its the spade!!!!"

[Pseidof]

I never liked how Phillips plays, he always looks at his oponnents eyes and tries to read him, and makes stupid bets for bluff, he really is just an amateur.

[ToSSpLaY]

@Pseidof lol.. how many WSOP deep runs have you made in a row again? The guy is easily among the top "amateurs" just for taking that as well as he did. 50%+ of people are readable by their eye motion, your just too stupid to know what they mean.

[Pseidof]

@ToSSpLaY Yeah, he is something like 50, and with zero bracelets and titles. He will stay amateur for the rest of his life.

[ToSSpLaY]

@Pseidof I'd rather be a respected amateur than a hated pro.

[YouCanCallMeAl1022]

@Pseidof yea but if you look at phillips' personality, i think he's okay with that! He's kind of like an everyday journeyman like chris moneymaker or darvin moon, but in my opinion, he's MUCH better than either of those 2. he finished 3rd in 2008 and 45TH in 2009, an incredible feat for a non-poker pro! We may not hear about this guy at "poker after dark" and you'll never see him play anything higher than a 10/20 cash game at home, but one can only respect this gentleman. Go DP!

[BredeWin]

@YouCanCallMeAl1022 he actually played High stakes poker last season, and PAD cash games... But I agree, he is WAY better than Moneymaker, and my mother is better than Darwin Moon...

[jiannj]

I respect both players here, Philips does not blows up but the other player feel bads too.

[tomruy]

did he die?

[bowser23]

@tomruy LOL at your post... I almost peed myself.

[ucla198]

dennis phillips always 3bets pf with AK. he acts like Ak is the nuts..and will call or shovee against 4bets..good but not great player

[fifaalca]

@martysparty2042 low stack vs amazing stack... it's a obvious all in -.-

[jmbd07]

Omg, this is such a gross call, come on. He just snap called it, wtf !? Really horrendous call, he deserved to lose. And no, he's not even remotely close from being the best amateur player in the world.

[metallicrema]

Where's the bad beat?

[ToXicTubeTV]

@metallicrema What is a bad beat EXACTLY? I play poker but im still a n00b :-/

[tinmanism]

@ToXicTubeTV bad beat is like the last card that turns the table around.

[genuine440]

Mr. Phillips, you are the dictionary definition of class, sir.

[T0mask0]

best amateur player in the world

[BlaBlaidc]

he took it well , very gentleman indeed shake everyone's hand without complaining

[Motosportnut]

respect...class act

[popeye135]

what a gentlemen

[blacky159]

i liked the part where they playeed poker.

[G4merHoly]

what a bad beat

[MarkMadnessSH]

What an ironic way to go out, after staying in by hitting 4 clubs on the board with QQ vs AA.

[thepostfk]

top 3?
