SICKEST BLUFF OF MY LIFE in the $10,000 WSOP Main Event?!

The second WSOP Main Event vlog is here as we tackle Day 2! We bagged a 100bb stack after Day 1 and are feeling confident of making a deep run, but our table draw isn't the best and we're going to have to battle for our life.
What follows is one of the most insane bluffs that I have ever tried to pull off. I can't wait to see what you all think!

GG Nick, thank you for taking us along for the ride, the vlogs have been great!

[@eastyyy22]

Thanks a lot guys!

[@aprilnads]

The AJ bluff is one of the sickest bluffs I’ve seen, the call 😂🤯 well fucking played, very disciplined to make it towards the backend of the day with hardly any value hands. Looking forward to watching you in next year’s Main Event! ❤️🤩👏🏾

[@eastyyy22]

I think the call is even more mental 😅. Thank you! ❤

Lmao fair assessment. How I've found this for the first time in my career and been called by AJo I will never know.

[@LivePokerGuide]

I think the AJ bluff was really good. You basically never have the best hand on the river and in the Main Event people don't like to call an allin with an overpair on that river. I think it takes guts to do it, and great that you found it mate! I even think that this bluff is good at 1/2 against most opponents.

[@eastyyy22]

Thanks a lot mate! Appreciate it.

Hey Nick - top video as usual. Serious question, can you explain how the "Bean" series came about - is it just a series where you guys spectate a mate trying higher stakes, or is Bean (Ed?) a pro or something? Absolutely love all the videos with him lol and love all the jokes surrounding it, but never understood the context

[@eastyyy22]

He is one of my best mates and hes a recreational, thought it would be funny to get him on stream and play some higher stakes. We were right 😅

Haha indeed mate, had a great time. Buzzing for the final! Cheers for watching.

[@jameshartman6388]

In the 10 8 hand does QJ and JJ really just call flop for a small bet or a draw heavy board that favours the pre flop raiser so surely check raise flop for value charging straight and flush draws also hands like AQ etc. Also do you not 3 bet jacks pre flop? Just curious

[@eastyyy22]

Mostly xr, I'd say QT is my main value hand that I always arrive with, and I have many combos of that. Not always 3b JJ no.

[@arvidsandberg745]

Pretty standard bluff with AJ tbh, i think every 25nl reg finds it.

[@eastyyy22]

Fairly normal call off as well

[@losyart]

It was enjoyable vlog. I love to watch your online struggle on youtube and live is even better. I love mostof your plays although that Q8 is prolly a fold on riv. We have weak trips. IMO we beat only bluffs. Not many ppl going to try to get U off Q . Sooo . Maybe there are some sickos and You are known for being good and able to make good folds so maybe against You it might be such attempt idk.Keep coming them videos cheers

Do you really expect AK and flushes to fold on that T8o hand? I'd expect KhJx and better to snap but of course I haven't played in the states.

[@eastyyy22]

Yeah those are bluff catchers at that point, and not very good ones. Also expect to have better fold equity in the main overall, hence the AJ torpedo.

Personally think the sizing works if opp has 50k chips. 90% of players aren’t going to call light in that spot knowing he torches over half his stack.

Think the Q8 call was pretty bad, you rep a Q so hard when you call a turn overbet that he isnt following thru on the river without the goods. GG though Nick, definitely some nice plays today from you.

Nice vlogs, very enjoyable. AJ bluff looks good to me. I don't really understand what bluffs she thinks you have.

[@eastyyy22]

Thanks mate! Yeah this just boils down to the wrong choice of opponent to bluff. She was really tunnelled on me not having a flush, which is absolutely not true, not to mention that I can jam sets and straight, and as you say I barely have any bluffs. So sick not to get it through lol

This Aj you should have jammed the turn with the chips left behind we never wanna bluffcatch and let her realize eq with spr so low,river you should have checked back indeed ,she checks to call aj+ there ,a conservative player could have a set or str8 or overpair there but yea that was ballsy man

[@eastyyy22]

I don't think I have fold equity ott, think this is a pretty clear call tbh

[@alexkontogiannis3520]

@@eastyyy22 Why would you need fold eq ,u jam for eq denial ,there could be some rivers that could be weird with spr being so low ,that's why we dont have fe on river either ,our opponent just called one of the weak hands that arrive there but the odds are so good at that point that she doesnt need more than 25% having u beat to call profitably ,but on turn maybe call is fine or better but I'm pretty sure it makes sense to jam since our hand is good enough to try to protect our eq,opponent could have KJ or combo draw ,or fd+ over.Call makes sense on my mind only if we plan on folding rivers whcih could be valid dependent on whom we play

@@eastyyy22 least they didn't show QQ + hahaha

[@Hildreth1101]

I would never Jam the AJ there because it is more important to live in this tournament imo, X try to win at showdown. if you cover someone I like it a bit better, however in terms of creativity I really like it especially if they can fold the Overpairs, I am surprised she did call but if she had OP+Heart I don't think she is ever folding and your tournament life is over. Also table image appears to be important to these players, since you shown a table image I think you got to use it to maximise value in some spots, I wouldn't have even mentioned idea of bluffing with AQ hand, I'd just bet like 75% and said nothing, maybe even pot, AQ is very strong and they probably don't have worse ever so I think I go pot OTR with the AQhh hand, especially with your image you may get called by any PP. And always bet the A5ss hand etc etc. (I do think that hand probably helped you get a fold in the T8o hand later because it showed you can trap strong hands tho, the T8o hand I'd fold the flop). What it is worth I like the AK on QT4Q2, mono flop size OTR, and I get why you'd X the turn with your hand, I do agree you can probably half pot turn as a bluff though to try make stuff like Tx no draw, JJ no heart fold OTT, but OTR you'd almost certaintly be vs a range of PP+heart and Qx and trapped strong hands so not sure I'd even want to bluff OTR, so I think your line is a bit safer. Q8 hand is really tough, because his value range is probably never worse, maybe some Q6s, Q5s, 2 combos really, not sure if they'd go so big is my problem, these players will split range a lot OTR with their hand strength, I don't think I fold too without a strong read though - Just too good a spot for him to fire off his bluffs I could think of enough potential combos without the need for him to be creative, I do think it is a spot you could find a tight fold though, depends how you think he constructs range but for me I would default to call. Generally say you played pretty well, if you had busted the AJ hand I'd want a refund though! 😆

[@eastyyy22]

Thanks a lot mate, fair assessment of the hands for sure. I think I like the AJ against 90%+ players, especially with how tight people generally are in this event. Q8 really sucked, I'd have folded to someone else but this guy was class.

[@sid7607]
