  • no wonder Joe Hachem won WSOP event in 2005 if he can make folds like this :)

  • the best ones out there can, and they also know when to call.

    Lol that's what i find interesting about daniel negreanu. He KNOWS what his opponent has in a heads up match, but he doesnt have the discipline to fold!

  • Like Tran said himself, I dont like the size of his raise either...

  • Great laydown by joe and thanks for the clip

  • @digbydan I folded queens when thought guy had aces righ that time but went crazy once in a tournement,i raised preflop with jacks,some guy reraised me all in when the stacks were big and about 100 people left,i knew he had either ak or kings but then thinking he doesnt have kings he has ak .I call and hit quads,but many times ive lost with the best hand as im sure alot of people

  • @digbydan Hes worried that hes going to waste his main event trying to catch an ace.In tournements sometimes at the right moment its good to fold Ak like joe did.I would always tell my younger brother tommy in tournements if you want to get far sometimes its best to fold Ak.Hes won a live tournement but hes more aggressive than,ive won some sit and gos online but havent played for real money in along time

  • AK is not that good- it sucks. 

  • Whats he worried about? Every time I have KK an A comes on the flop 100% of the time.  Its compulsory!!

  • o come on, AK isnt that hard to fold in that spot......

  • i am not a pro or a great poker player but i have folded pre flop queens does not make me a best poker player

  • "I'm not fond of the self high five." LOL norman

  • its just A-K not hard to fold i folded it preflop alot of times
