Antonio Esfandiari & Francisco Battle With Over $100,000 On The Line ♠ Live at the Bike!

[@Boulderpits]

When I'm having a bad day I always return to this video. Seeing Antonio get his ass handed to him always cheers me up.

[@daviddelacueva3179]

Francisco trying to make it seem like a bluff when he flips the king of hearts and Antonio smells the cheese right away and says “runner runner 8s” 😝

[@4trademe2]

think antonio saw the 8 in his hand,and then asked a question for tell later in game

[@wen496]

when people show the card that does not hit the other card hit VERY HARD! amateurs are so predictable and antonio knows that

[@wen496]

@@4trademe2 antonio is a decent pro and he knows when they show a card that not hit the other card hits LOL and 8 of hearts would give the opponent a flushdraw so would make sense

[@soulreadanalytics9781]

@@4trademe2 yeah you right.. was just gonna text same

[@eugeneferguson301]

Dont understand that chop pot. The 10 was higher than the 7

[@mrx7181]

That was truly a class call from Antonio. He knew that when he put that money in, there was little to no chance he could win the pot outright. He had to make a read and decide whether or not his opponent is capable of overplaying a dry five.

[@elvis316]

Antonio is one of the greatest players ever. Best reader. Don't believe your own press is the lesson here.

[@plexsm1425]

2:14 Francisco looked shocked after Antonio called his hand 😂

[@MeauxGreenMusic]

Antonio saw his hole card 8.

[@MeauxGreenMusic]

2:06 Antonio peeks at Francisco’s card who lifted up the 8 card really high. Then turns over the other card, showing the K. Antonio then says “runner runner 8s eh” lol

[@GetMeThere1]

Francisco is a hidden talent. He does well against Garrett and Andy, too.

[@DryHerbDaddy]

Antonio Esfandiari blessing the show. One of my all-time favs

[@bornn68]

I went and cleaned my whole house waiting for that guy to call.

[@samuelan700]

You live in an igloo?

[@chuckycheesechucky]

KQo hand was kinda terrible.

[@68air]

This is killer funny. Antonio never lost his sense of humor. What would have happened if it were Hellmuth up against these sets and losing?

[@ashtokm]

5:34 shifty little move by Antonio checking the cards there - looking for that reaction by moving his cards forward to check. If that was baseball - this would be a baulk :)

[@nardinit]

It's not an angle. I've never understood poker players that accuse angle shooting in so many normal spots. Yeah people act deceivingly to see people's reactions. That's poker. Deception, bluffs and 'hollywooding' are part of the game. Trying to appear weak while strong and vice versa is poker 101

[@ratfacekilla1839]

Antonio must be that type of guy who says "he can't have it every time" and keeps losing.

[@MBMASTR]

I would say he had live reads on flop and turn, couldnt put him on hand.

[@StevieSparkZ]

At 19:31 - This is hilarious, Antonio is saying something about "theatrics" to Francisco? The pot calling the kettle black!

[@jpate1103]

the trips hand had me laughing my ass off with Antonio's analysis (and subtle verbal potshots taken at himself and Francisco) 😂

[@nicholaskazantzidis]

The best part is Phil’s smile one Antonio loses the second hand. He just loves it!!!

[@josejose-sw6uf]

dont be fool they were playing together thats was like saying keep loosing my money anthonio but they know what they doing

[@macjones1879]

what value are the smaller black chips next to the 100s

[@phunkh0u538]

😂😂😂This is totally me when I have a huge bankroll & want to make it look like I can play with the big dogs😂😂😂😂

[@wen496]

last bluff was making no sense would you really check a strong hand 3 times when everybody checks back and even river goes check check you check yourself with only 1 opponent behind?

[@Darkstar2520]

Can someone explain to me how they chopped the pot when they both had trips would Francisco win because of the kicker?

[@-0rbital-]

Matt Because there were 3 cards higher than 10 on the board.

[@seannelligan3080]

@@-0rbital- 2 cards

[@powerlifting1012]

Poker's all about making the best five card hand they both had trip fives with a queen jack kicker

[@KyleMart]

They were upset about the 55 hand for not betting the flop or the turn, but boom! It got extra money on the river.

[@martinsloan9785]

Francisco, why receive with pocket fives? Only a better hand can win or raise. Amatuer.

[@jbw6351]

After Antonio announces he has trips you can see Francisco give off a nervous tell at 13:53 (heavy breathing, facial twitching), probably thinking antonios got any of the other possible sets out there

[@KevLetsGo]

At 9:45 look at Phil just happy Antonio got beat! Petty 🤣🤣

[@accelerate08]

Im so happy someone took Antonios money that angling pos and in the way he took it too. Just sat there quietly, perfectly and didnt say anything. Props to San

Why do odds not show chop %?

[@contagious4193]

Look at 3:18 Antonio's 5k chips move alone.. wtf

[@POVPOOL]

Antonio getting decimated throughout the night with Francisco on fire. Wish I'd seen this 'live' to see how the rest of the table did.

[@CrookedCommish]

Damn. It’s so hard NOT to respect Antonio game. 👏

[@SickmanOfVietnam]

My man Antonio!!! New school vs local OG's. Holdfast, it's ffa.

[@wen496]

or someone if folding flushdraw if you bet turn at least I hardly draw on paired boards in multiway pots

[@freestrike2000]

4:50 "trips" is three of kind with just one hole card.

[@Dippedwithsweet]

Esfandiari gets away with a lot of questionable actions

[@ozrenlazarevic120]

Dude antonio is definitely not a fish the other guy is just catching cards

[@MBMASTR]

Joking or not? 😂

[@vsaminat]

Antonio reminds me of one of the film students in better call saul

[@fromfleshtosteel]

Anyone saying Antonio is a fish for making the call with KQ is an idiot. Yeah he’s at the bottom of his range, but he’s also at the bottom of his stakes. And on a telecast such as LATB, he doesn’t want to be bluffed. It’s worth the call all day. If this game is a 300/600 game, it’s nearly an instafold for him. I love these KZbin poker “experts” that think the game is so easy... while their graph consistently nosedives in their local 1/2 game.

[@Simon-nv5zj]

so ur reasoning that antonio is not a fish here is because hes playing in such low stakes for his bankroll, that he should be calling more often than not in these spots so he doesnt look like an idiot? and you are giving out advice? lmfao

[@Simon-nv5zj]

i mean im not saying that KQo is a real bad call here, but ur statement alone was really funny lol

[@keefershutts9519]

Guilty

[@Tonyc_1987]

"someone call the clock" Antonio took ages!

[@wen496]

does it matter in a cashgame? its fun to watch him analyse

[@jeffpaggett7274]

Okay, that was fun to watch.

[@robertritchey1210]

Enjoy learning from Antonio any chance I get..

[@DrDizzyMorris]

Love the series but I’d like it even more if the announcers would stop talking over the pros table talk 😢 it’s highly interesting and I can’t hear them

[@MariaJ144]

That KQ hand was really ugly for Antonio, even though he has a back door flush draw on the flop doesn't make it a profitable call by any means. Seems to happen to a lot of old pros, they start making fishy calls just because they have bank....lol

[@zenatti364]

Antonio needs to stop angle shooting!!

[@masterchief5758]

7:10 when some one takes a sip from his drink it’s a easy tell that he is strong and comfortable. Easy fold by me when I saw that.

[@datsumcrzysht]

Antonio has been playing for so damn long and someone like him sees so many facets that the average poker player(no I don’t mean you, we all know that you’re much better than average, I’m talking about everyone else) cannot understand the line taken. So you not understanding doesn’t equate to him playing poorly.

[@johnv5156]

Yeah, he is a master angle shooter.

[@roleyondawrist3077]

[@utaarchen]

Antonio starts with $100K. WTH?. This guys got too much money and play donkey games!

[@bhoj03]

16:50 YO!!! WHO BROUGHT THEIR MOTHER TO THE POKER GAME?

[@trevormills8760]

I don't think there was ever "over $100,000 on the line"

[@plstrom]

esfandiari came with a Aria cap ? lol

[@zoner1nz]

Fake title, not once was 100k on the line as Francisco never had enough to make it a 100k pot heads up. It was 60k pot and Francisco was all in and Antonio called, split pot.

[@Wazzowskii007]

Hahaha rocky balboa and tom hanks. Hilarious

[@tonynelligan1930]

i know this is way out of date and all and saw this a while ago, but the question i have is why does anyone bet on Ace and queen combo of any kind? that dirty girl always does you wrong and what do you do but shove more money in for her till she breaks your cards i mean heart.

[@pkz175]

55 hand was horrifically played

[@Simon-nv5zj]

"he got the read"....well he got something and it wasnt the read. i always laugh at the 'live reads' commentary

[@sandysanchez4]

sik river 3bet turning his boat into a bluff

[@PoppysGuitar]

Ok let me reveal how stupid I am on the chop pot. When Antonio does the river hand analysis why does he say "You don't 5 7 cause you would have checked the flop and you might A5 which sucks and you don't have Q5 J5 or K5." Can anyone explain that statement to me? I can see the 57 part but why can 't he have the other hands? Thanks kids.

[@TruongMtgArenaHearthstone03]

wish he would hand me 10k lol

[@larrygrasso6032]

Don't mean shit when you got millions.

[@milosmaric6412]

Esfandiari was doing crazy challenges for 50 - 100 k so sure 10 k isnt irelevant to his either

[@Aces4lee]

Good read Antonio!

[@kahnyoo5979]

That was a I want to see your hands call

[@josepnin2752]

Omg... Esfandiari is turned in to a fish... R.I.P. Antonio. :(

[@Princiepoker]

How is there 100k on the line when Fransisco has a 18k chip stack to start the hand? Hate it when people fuckin lie in the titles to create click bait so unprofessional

[@Princiepoker]

If u add both hands together there's never 100,000 on the line joke click bait

[@eliassahlman2146]

Yea, and if I decide to play nl100 for a couple of hours I haven't really put up to 10k on the line lol.

[@rodneypratt4324]

I can't believe the magician is wasting all this goddamn time for a measly 7000 fucking dollars

[@Sam-kp2ly]

A little harrassy by Antonio but if you’re playing at this stakes I guess that’s just part of the game?

[@loukane6477]

Angle shootin Antonio at it again

[@paullampl1]

Fransisco is a boss lol I love how quickly he acts

[@tylerlee6054]

Francisco is getting lucky here but man you can tell he is a fish

[@willie7729]

TLee,

[@tylerlee6054]

Agreed

[@mv8000bdb]

Yea, the 55 hand is mindblowing. Checking back the flop there is terrible, but checking back the turn is criminal. Good thing Antonio was steamed and spazzed out for him

[@stevenpetteruti71]

the 3bet w/ 55 otr is a donation

[@paulroos8658]

With 3 clubs on board i would never let him see a free card, id rather win 2500 than not win 5000

[@cafferacer]

This is just a bit better than the 2024 WSOP final table zzzzzzzzzzz

[@TEAMGETHELP]

How is 53 0% 🤣🤣🤣

[@Cooldrummer]

Antonio always tanks too long and tries to angle shoot every time. Tries so hard to get any possible read and tells.

[@SSky06]

You've apparently never been angle shot is if you think talking to the guy and yourself and fiddling around with your chips is an angle.

[@Cooldrummer]

He didn’t angle in this video, but he’s done in the past against Perkins and Merson. It’s become a recurring theme.

[@fromfleshtosteel]

I’m a huge Antonio fan, but I have to agree on the angling here. He fakes his chips, fakes a muck, fakes his chips, fakes another muck, then finally makes the call. Not the craziest of angles l, but enough to have someone call him out on it at the table.

[@edhakim5921]

No angle here. He’s just trying to get a read on his opponent.

[@SSky06]

I feel like that's just gamesmanship. But then again, I've seen people run actual scumbag angles like hide chips, bottom big chips, pretend to be drunk, and claim to have gone all in without looking when they actually did, so stuff like this seems pretty tame by comparison.

[@willie7729]

Esfandiari game change a lot, he makes a realy bad call preflop with KQ, and make another bad call on the flop with the KQ, why he don't bet the turn when he hits the Q , if you call the flop with nothing , and calls francisco bet on the river, Esfandiari say here TAKE the 7,000$...wtf...🤔...

[@Gidid56]

willie 772 lol, maybe just maybe Esdandiari has some deeper understanding of Poker than you do. Actually his Line is totally reasonable. Francisco has huge sizing tells, his raise Preflop screams middling pocket pair or AK, Antonio just played optimal vs. that range. River he only looses too trapped AcKc and 88 (which might not 3bet all the time), but beats the 10 times more likely JJ-99

[@mv8000bdb]

How could it possibly be a bad float in position on the flop with KQ, when you can clearly see that Antonio will win that hand everytime Francisco misses his 2-outter

[@willie7729]

Chucky Jenkins, yes keep calling 3bet preflop with KQ off, why esfandiari call when francisco bet the flop, if you not going to bet or bluff the turn in river..is a bad play on esfandiari part...

[@fromfleshtosteel]

willie 772 Keep relying on your 2 putters to hit the river to convince yourself you were ahead the whole time lol. YOU are the fish.

Antonio takes forever to make a call. Even with that 7k really? With an amateur taking that long it's ok, but a pro? Come on dude

[@thedogecoinmultimillionair]

Francisco killed him

[@davidmurphy5405]

OK so I discovered on line poker free chips and everyone else's stats. I learned to tighten up and play machine gun hands. Before that I played hold em cards up. So it's like a random generator. And I've seen it get pretty wild . Start delivering four of a kinds back to back and jackpot hands non stop for two days. I have long hard winning streaks. So be on line and I have the ryrhymn of the cards instead if all the emotions and misleading if 7 other psychopaths. Quite simply it's the percentages if all in playing . I started with 300k chips to start and within 2 weeks I was up $68M . Level up. I've got a pretty sure fire method . Wait for good cards. Wait a little longer and all in on anything above pocket 10s. I just follow the wave. All in all out . And I cruise the flops a few times and watch the futility if the unwashed masses chase the small cards. After 30 years of this when I have more money than sense I will still pull down a full house 4-7 off suit or some other miracle But mostly I've learned mist people have absolutely nothing special and get bored and start betting it. And once the flop comes....for the most part that's what yer stuck with make it dam good. It never improves . Figuring averages and how many times that outside straight failed to materialize lean back on the odds and know that fourth or fifth straight building is going to hit ...it's tue odds ! My winning percentage is 33-38. Let's call it 35% . I have to lose twice to win once and with 4-5 other players you just beat the odds. Plus it adds anxiety to the loser as he may take a real flyer and Lose it all. Because I throw away 5-10 hands before I feel lucky and the big boys arrive and it's all in I win. It's no big postulation party for these meatheads it's just show for the lookie loos

[@Jolly-Green-Steve]

I have never seen Antonio have a winning session in a cash game. He can't go one session without making bad calls and bluffs that make no sense where he has little money into the pot and it's not worth it and are always in situations where the opponent must have a big hand. You let 3 guys go to the river and when someone bets the pot on the river you attempt to bluff? that is beyond stupid. The only time you should attempt a play like that is if it's a heads up raised pot and if there is actually a lot of money in the pot so it's worth stealing. Antonio risked 10k to win 4k when do to the way the hand went down Fransisco most likely has a huge hand and was trapping. Do you really think Fransisco was trying to run a bluff on the river betting pot into 3 opponents? Even then it is a judgment call that shouldn't be based on this guy has beat me out of a lot of pots I have to get back at him. If anything Antonio should be trying to stay out of the way of Fransisco not trying to go to war with him.
