$375,000 BLUFF vs Garrett Adelstein - HIGH STAKES POKER TAKES with Daniel Negreanu 08

[@mehaha1]

Been a fan for 20 years. It’s very impressive how you continue to grow and stay competitive with the ever changing poker landscape. Can tell you’ve been putting in work in the lab. Cheers, Daniel!

[@jaimev001b]

Totally agree!

Big time agree. He understands the game is ever changing, just like he changed the game when he entered as just a kid.

Love seeing a old dog learn new tricks, and seeing it pay off. Been killing it lately Daniel, very happy for you.

[@conormccormack7841]

That old dog crap is similar to a "leopard can't change its spots" and "don't talk politics". That's Frankfurt School and Tavistock Institute manipulation, created to keep the Wh's down

[@atrocious_pr0xy]

Daniel always had a way of evolving around situations. picking up on late trends is nothing for a mind like his. he mixes art with logic.

[@saveir6601]

Love how Dwan was following the hand and read it like a book. Garret has been having a rough time facing monsters and Daniel knew that. Wouldn’t be so sure Dwan wouldn’t catch the 3 barrel

[@christopher7763]

Think Dwan would’ve been sick about it, but I see him calling there too. Seemed like a big river bet that says Daniel wanted Garrett out of the hand.

[@Badbentham]

In general, Garrett has to defend with at least 55% of his range on the River. - It is just that T9s is really at the very bottom of his distribution; not blocking either of Danny`s AK/AA/KK. A9s instead is probably still a fold, but could be a "maybe", against a bluffy opponent. Having a K as a blocker is "best", though, with KJ likely being a snap, as most of Danny`s bluff range likely consists of Ax hands (and AQ specifically).

[@easterbunnybrandon1796]

@@Badbentham Wrong. This is a call all day. Daniel clearly has Ace high. b00m, get rekt

[@nickjunes]

Dwan was just saying that trying to get information. Of course he wants to see Daniel's hand.

Great hand break down Daniel and great play! Thanks for sharing your thought process, this is a huge help to us non-poker pros trying to learn everything we can about this awesome game. Thanks!

[@AdamGrigor]

Well played, Daniel. I really like the conclusion part in your video. Being ok with emotions and result of unsuccessful bluff while knowing you did everything right is what keeps one doing well in poker. Realising that is super important. Also I was wondering about the river sizing, would you ever truly big that large with value hands knowing your opponent is likely hold just sole K or a 9? Just curious :)

[@dnegspoker]

Definitely NOT with just a 9! I think KQ is the worst hand I may bet that size

[@julianhodgson1202]

Great comment Adam to one of the most awesome breakdowns of all time - in effect Daniel saying there is no shame in being caught bluffing (because you have to bluff from time to time when the situation demands it to be a winning player) will have a massive positive effect on many poker player’s game.

Garrett is an awesome poker player, however 95 percent of the time, he is the best at the table, with the exception of Andy and Dylan giving him problems on Hustler. Most of these people at this table has his net worth covered, which makes a difference when playing high stakes. Breakdown was excellent and I enjoy seeing Dnegs and Garrett play.

[@upbreaker7055]

Garrett finally found his match. Way to take advantage of position..I rarely see that with his other opponents on hustler live and latb days.

[@IPIRIEY]

Even if people are in position on him though, he usually has stacks on stacks to cover them, and plays a different game. This game everyone is deep deep, and it allows actual play against him where he doesn't have 10-15x the chips as he did on the other shows he was doing.

[@guibox3]

Garrett, about 80% of the time, sniffs out these bluffs. I think Daniel's betting size and aggressiveness convinced him Daniel wasn't bluffing and I think Daniel knew this by betting so big. If he had bet $100-135K, I don't think Garrett would have taken too long to call.
