That is brilliant. Matusow was not happy.

Can you blame him? When I first saw that I was SCREAMING at the screen. I have to admit I lost a little respect for Matusow after seeing that.

Matusow make a grave mistake by not reraising.

xtreme_calibur · Oct 19, 2007

the greatest part of the whole hand was after phil bet 40K on river, mike said "I know phil never bets the river if he really doesnt have it." i about died, and im sure hellmuth did as well!

I love the fact that before that hand mattusow is telling everyone what a fish hellmuth is. Glorious Timing! I love phil hellmuth so much more after this.

Hello [FIRST POST]

well, mattusow scared the 3 of kind and with a 40K on the river, he can fold KK, he made an mistake to not BIGraise the flop, but maybe he wants to made a trap to Hellmuth, if the river was a deuce, it would be better

Genso Hikki · Oct 20, 2007

No, I am with Esfandiari on this one. After the hand was over, mouth all agape, "HOW COULD HE FOLD KINGS THERE?"

Yup that pretty much summed up my feelings.

skd1337 · Oct 20, 2007

its a huge fold, maybe mattusow was trying to look good on the cameras and just misplayed the situation?

KingNothing4 · Oct 20, 2007

ya wow that was amazing haha pretty funny stuff, sounds like a fun game to play

horghe · Oct 21, 2007

WOW, that was amazing, i am a fan of Matusow but he really does get himself in trouble with the stuff he says "fish" "never bets big on the river if he doesnt have anything"
massive laugh, great video, thanx

Matusow played that terribly every street, as a result had basically no info on Hellmuth's holding and even then should have still made the call, instead making a 'hero' laydown which went wrong.

pantin007 · Oct 27, 2007

hellmuth is a gangster and i have even more respect for him now

mixmaster_matt · Oct 27, 2007

the best part of that is everyone had to give hellmuth $500, bc of the 7 2 rule they made that stated if anyone wins a hand with 2 7 then everyone owes that person $500...

beardyian · Oct 27, 2007

What no one has mentioned is that Phil admits to knowing that Mike only had the one buy-in with him, so if he went bust there, then it was goodbye Mikey.

This would have added confidence to Phils betting and weakened Mikes ability to call the large bet on the end.

Great stuff, my favorite high stakes poker video though is where Gus and Daniel battle it out with all the 55's and 66's i think Gus made quad fives or something and Daniel a full house i cant remember still great stuff!

4Aces · Nov 19, 2007

Great vid!
I remember seeing this for the first time, i was amazed. Great way to start the new season!

YouTube - daniel negreanu and gus hansen on high stakes poker

This is what im talking about, this is some pretty sick stuff check it out !

dufferdevon · Dec 17, 2007

It's easy for us to criticize Mike there but we know what the card were. I wish I could lay down hands like that, when I need to.

JRaD · Dec 18, 2007

Yeah eNTy I watched that one, Negreanu probably felt so sick after that haha I would probably throw up

switch0723 · Dec 18, 2007

na the best hand is when there are 2 limpers and farha raises blind from the button, the 2 limpers call. They both the check to farha who bets again on flop still without looking at his cards once, and the other 2 fold knowing he was betting blind

Iwantpasswords · Dec 20, 2007

ROFL. WOW, that was some entertainment. I'm surprised Matusow wasn't raising.

Tobmeister · Dec 20, 2007

The thing is, if Helmuth had pocket Qs or Js then his set would completely fit, so Matusow was either making a good laydown, and would be able to say how amazing he was, or he gets pwned!!

allndave · Dec 20, 2007

did you see the one where sam farha called phil's big raise with K7o against phils QQ and of course he hit the K. poor phil

worditst · Dec 30, 2007

I WISH I HAD THE GUTS TO bluff SOMEONE OUT OF POCKET KINGS! haha
