That’s a tournament. This is a high stakes cash game. Apples to oranges.

I understand you're just trolling, or at least I hope so, but for the others actually interested the first problem with your supposed same situation is that your hand is a tournament hand and the hand in question is a cash game. I'll let you explain the difference.



Okay

But they said no one has ever seen it before and no one ever does it

Except for they do

Final table game for more money by finish position than this entire pot

What I find sketchy is how she says she didn’t come to play nice in the sandbox and then just gives the money back.

I don’t see the big deal

So they both bluffed. She just ended with the better bluff cards.

It’s not like this dude had anything either. He needed to catch a card at the end.

Isn't that a tournament?

And nobody of any skill plays that way anymore. That's from an ancient era of poker.

Jack high hero call on nothing

One thing I don’t think people on here are mentioning is the first couple of streams she was on she played VERY tight. Now all the sudden in this stream on hands even before this one she is check raising with Ace high and calling bluff all ins for 100k. She’s either cheating or just a really, really bad player that doesn’t understand the game at all

In the context of the hand for $110k, no one makes the call.

Let me break it down for you. Poker is a game of ranges when trying to decide on a call/fold. In this particular hand, Robbie is drawing dead against all of his thick value ranges, this is your 10s and full house. Without doing the math, I’d say this is 30 combos. His other hands that are possible are his semi bluffing hands about 20 or so combos of those, she is only beating exactly 3 87cc, 86cc, 65cc. So, even if he is semi bluffing with a bunch of equity, she is still losing to a majority of his hands. That’s a brief explanation as to why this hand isn’t a call and why Garrett is so perplexed when she turns over her hand

Dude he has a pair of 6’s in that hand with 4 to the straight on the board. That’s not J high

The only way she doesn't look dumb in this situation is if she calls his exact hand out loud before calling. Even then it's not a wise play, but at least she'd let them know that she knew the equity after the turn.

Giving the money back makes it even more sus.

I wish they’d leak a camera angle of the private discussion between Ryan, Robbie and Garrett. Something had to have occurred there which caused Garrett to “100% believe he was cheated.” We have both of their stories, but I’d like to se the video.

Can you link the right one? Also, read my breakdown on the hand.
