Kaplan VS Durrrr HUGE BLUFF - Poker After Dark - Season 6 - Episode 73

[HQxMusic]

durr must be the best, imediantly says thats a weird line cause gabe reraised on a dry flop :) <3 dwan

[DazzaMexicoese]

stop playin with ur fuckin chips stfu

[leemassey1]

i think its about time some1 starts showing there cards, win with good cards or win with bluff, thats how i tend to play because if u bluff sum1 they are steaming inside. all these pros i can garrentee they will watch this show wen they finish, so they think so thats how he plays ill have him next time (i no u could play opposite, but u gota be sure they no how u play for that to work) i just think now is the time for sum1 to throw regular poker out the window and no1 could follow you

[418D]

who died?

[GoldenBoyXCM]

i cant believe kaplan pulled this off!! WWOOOWWW!!!

[SmotPoker09]

i didnt get dwan's action. he called 38.000 out of position on the flop, then he folds after double check on the turn. every Ace value bets on the river and so does every Bluff in that spot. if he thought he was good on the flop, turn and river didnt change anything... im a No- one in poker, and he is a pro (my fav cash poker player). id like to understand his thinking process about this hand, any idea?

[arowerlikenoother]

@SmotPoker09 I think he was hoping Kaplan would check on the river. Because Kaplan bet first, he has the initiative. Dwan is only following him. If Kaplan bets on the turn a lot = he has nothing/he wants to end the game quickly, if he bets a little = he has not a so good hand and wants to provoke Dwan. He checked = you have no clue of what he has. this scheme works the same with Dwan except he doesn't have the initiative of betting. But that's my humble opinion of course

[tma579]

FUCK YA GABE!

[astrobeaver]

yaawn

[DarkTenka]

haha durrrp

[SeitxiS]

durrrrr derp derp derp

[fume0ne]

wish you could see the stack sizes in the hud.

gabe played this hand like a beast

[whackitinmyshatter]

heaps of ppl wud play a8-aj this way, check the turn just for pot control (yes i know they have trips but still happens a lot) no way dwan can call river. if anything i was super impressed he even called the 1st reraise with just bpbk dwan is a sicko

[Dxh096020]

No gabe played the hand like he had an ace

[longjohnw86]

cant believe DURRR didnt bet the river!

[RvE15021985]

gabe rules!...rip high stakes poker

[staxstix]

the line was indeed weird. i wouldn't even call it a strong bluff, but it worked as dwan didn't have anything really. kaplan didn't represent a proper hand the whole time, if he had hit something and played it like that, he would've played it extremely random. i'm sure dwan would've called with a slightly better hand.

[reacharlie]

Kaplan should be commentating while playing too.. haha :P

[FroztDrake]

@reacharlie rofl

[DARKR3APZ]

easy bluff, once Kaplan re raised the flop

[MrGrizmint]

@DARKR3APZ YA, EZ AT THE .0001/.0002 TABLE

[fume0ne]

why is the top comment not about how gabe is #1 and the only good top level commentator who aint a pro?

gabe4lyfe y0

[FroztDrake]

@fume0ne :)



[Bel1990Bel]

@fume0ne If Im not mistaken his a very good tournament player who had some major cashes. And yes indeed the best and the funniest poker commentator ever with very good insight!

[1skullduggery]

epstein's mother would be proud...

[GhettoHits]

very nice :)))

[itssimpleiwinyoulose]

Turn the caps on the ROFL! xD

[thatniceguy23]

as a commentator of high stakes poker i'm pretty sure he spotted some tells on tom dwan lolz!!

[steveparok00]

Alan Meltzer is so beautiful.

[d2thh725]

nice ass bluff

[fliptthescript]

dwan should of fired the river.

[MaliCoq]

kaplan is thinking, stu ungar would have crushed me if I tried that with him. you got a long way to go kid... lol

[DGcRaZe]

RIP Alan Meltzer

[ONEBlackJellyFish]

alex meltzer looking pretty delicious did he get a new haircut? or shirt perhaps? Whatever it is he is sparkling

[serratop]

@ONEBlackJellyFish he did die, show some respect

[ONEBlackJellyFish]

@serratop stfu faggot, those who want respect give respect.

[serratop]

@ONEBlackJellyFish You must be sick, FAGGOT

[phobiazzzero]

Patrick Antonius looks like the PERFECT SPECIMEN!

[born2shred2000]

Gabe raises on the button figuring Eli limped a weak hand. Tom knows that Gabe doesn't have to have a strong hand to raise on the button, so he re-raises. Flop- A 7 3 rainbow perfect dry flop for Tom to c-bet, G re-raises. G cant have bottom two pair. Sets, 2 pair and Aces just call since he isn't scared of draws and Tom can keep firing. Ace turn, makes it even less likely that G has an Ace in hand. G checks; Tom has a showdown hand not called by worse so he checks. River is a blank. 45s????

[fume0ne]

GABE IS #1

[Cadillac1944]

Gabes awsome!! 

[alebecks]

Meltzer: nice hand orgasm

[2tame4fame]

Commentator - "what is Gabe betting here at the end that he didn't bet on the turn?" an ACE? LOL

[1skullduggery]

the ol' 'epsteins mother' trick.

[SmokeRingsPipeDreams]

Kaplan's a good player. I'm kind of surprised that Dwan would throw away two pair to that bet though, he can be pretty wild sometimes. I thought he would call that for sure.

[cheezilius]

@SmokeRingsPipeDreams you know his 2 pair was counterfeited right?

[ruarihennessy1]

@cheezilius i actually dont think he did and looks pretty stupid lol

[rndapology123]

@00101011011011 how many live hands have you played? if yoi don't consider Gabe's mannerisms as at least possibly tells, then what do you consider to be tells?

[Shadow766]

I think Gabe has analyzed Dwans play more than anyone though lol.



[JohnLeeMD]

I'm commenting at around 3:00 in the hand, and Kaplan has just popped durrrr with a flop raise... if Dwan re-pops him with 32 on an A37 board, the f'n guy is sick!

(I press play and continue.)

[finnfisu]

I was sure he'll call

It smelled like a bluff

[thespacialone]

man this is one good looking table!!!

[donkeykongnumber9]

Gabe still has game!

[1skullduggery]

everyone is so proud in the rare instance they get to outplay durrrr.

[briles24]

But I'm not sure he had him beat! He might have 4 5... Oh, he made it with 4 5. He made it with 4 5. LMAO. Classic

[rndapology123]

Probably Dwan either levels himself into thinking Kaplan is playing a rag ace weird and is so nitty he's showing fear/weakness tells because he's afraid of trips vs. trips. I'm pretty sure his decision is between trip aces w/ bad kicker and total air.

[rndapology123]

Kaplan looks full of tells. Pressed lips when his flop raise doesn't get a fold immediately, head scratching and pacifying check rubs on the river as he sees the river blank and realizes he needs to bet to win. Same cheek rub when he gets 3-bet preflop by Dwan and he has to recheck his cards (imho, weighs nonpocket pairs big). Dwan, on the other hand, shows absolutely nothing. Crazy pro.

[00101011011011]

@rndapology123 u r oblivious if you consider those to be tells

[psylencecy]

When he bet the river he itched his head...common sign for bluffing..! 4:00

how did gabe do?

having a go with the pros after studying them all in detail... :)

[slatz20]

Where in the fucking Hell a poker commentator found so much money???

[KopaleKopale]

@slatz20 hes not a commentator you foooooooool hes a PLAYA won more than a million in tourneys as far as I can rememba ^_._^

[cardigan3000]

@slatz20 you know he was the star of one of the most popular tv shows in history right?

[OUSOONERSFTW]

If i was playing that hand i probably would figured him for a bluff or some dinky 44,55,66.

[MrJonnyboy36]

@OUSOONERSFTW Why he would have prolly just limped after eli..?

[rommi27]

fasten your seatbelts its going to be a bumpy night

[pvgaraga]

That's why Gabe is the best poker commentator all-times: he is capable of bluffing Dwan in a No-limit hold'em cash game! GG Gabe

[ggnub100]

LOL EVERYTIME DURRRR FOLDS OR LOSES HE LOOKS UP AND SAYS "WHY GOD I THOUGHT WE HAD A DEAL!"

[TheShikobe]

@ggnub100 It might be the devil not God.

[PkrLocoPlayr]

Dwan would've called there 9 out of 10 times except it was Gabe who has a rep for being a rock when he plays against these guys. Anyone else on the table he calls esp after checking the turn, although I guess if it had of been any of the other players they would of not checked the turn.

[tmc359]

ohh.. that is some BIG balls! 

[tabber87]

Dwan is such a fucking geek.

[VicenzoV]

It would have been even cooler if he hadn't shown. Gabe would have been like Ivey cool for a few moments.

[dellcamwall]

not trying to sound like an expert, but why did dwan call on the flop if he was going to check fold the turn(maybe?) and river.......does he think the 3 has showdown value or does he just hope he gets lucky and hits

[kuja900]

@dellcamwall because there is really no hand gabe would do that with for value and he thinks gabe will shut down on later streets if hes bluffing

[Ztnarf1985]

Gabe Kaplan is the man... think about it he sits there and host the show and basically gets to observe and study all of those guys he should be one of the best players in the world and proves it in this video...

[asianmonk]

@Ztnarf1985 hes not even close to being one of the best

[ggnub100]

everyone is a certified poker expert on youtube

[ggnub100]

kaplan against durrrr? i'd thought i'd never see this match-up. what an unlikely matchup.

[SunnyGoFish]

From what I've observed I believe Eli open limped, Gabe raised, Durr 3bet Eli folded, Gabe called. Durr cbet flop and gabe raised, durr called. Durrr checked the turn that paired the board, and Gabe checked back. Durrr checked the river and Gabe bet and Durr folded. I think the key point in this hand was when Gabe and Durrr made eye contact and had a Broment together. That allowed Gabe to tap into Durrrs soul, revealing Durrrs true identity. Durrr was afraid the secret might get out and folded.

[Crusherv1]

Atta boy Gabe.

[equivocalx]

Kaplan did the right thing in checking the turn against a thinking player like durrrr, as you're more likely to check trip aces on the turn. But if durrrr knew that he might have been able to hero call it, very marginal spot and I doubt there's very much history between the two so I understand durrr's fold, although I"d question what gabe is repping by raising him on a dry flop like that in the first place as most players would just smooth call the flop cbet with the ace.

[7AntichristSuperstar]

@equivocalx

"as you're more likely to check trip aces on the turn"'

rofl. NO. if its your standard line to check when you turn trips then you are a mega fish.

[equivocalx]

@7AntichristSuperstar I'm speaking of meta game lines, fagtard. Of course there's situations where it's best to keep betting when you hit trips against calling stations or a player you know you're gonna get 3 streets of value from, but against aggressive players that perceive check turns as weakness and like to bluff the river it's different. It is completely villain dependent. Some players will float you one street and then you bet the turn when you trip up and they fold.

[xFerris]

Kaplan watch durrrr moves everyday on high stakes poker, so he can easily get a read on him lol

[Tehui1974]

Complex bluffs like that don't work against average players.

[Th3Z0ne]

Just when Alan Meltzer couldn't look any more hideous, they sit him next to Patrik Antonius

[dh144498]

@Th3Z0ne LOL good one. very well said.

[dh144498]

dam finally i see durr getting durrr'd.

[Woittajamies]

@dh144498 YEAH!!!!

[Yamakashi1]

@Th3Z0ne HAHAA

[cyclotane]

@Th3Z0ne lolll brilliant comment

[JohnLeeMD]

@Th3Z0ne In that regard, Kaplan (no looker himself) is in the catbird seat, between Meltzer and Viffer. It's called Framing.

[Robben911back]

@Th3Z0ne The name Meltzer just sounds so FAT

[KevinDorner]

That's poker at its highest level. Amazing play by both.

[maxpanchoo]

good play
