I am sure if he's regularly cracking his wrist when the action is on him that someone is going to call him out.

[@noThankyou-g5c]

Havent finished the hand but I thing Charlie needs to understand his live read skill set doesn’t translate to literally everybody. He made his money playing large field small and medium stakes tournaments (several years ago) and in those fields I do think the type of strategies around table talk / etc will work. But there’s just no way they’re going to work on somebody like Antonius or Ivey especially. You’d think that’d be obvious but when you revolve your life around spirituality, which is in direct contrast with rationality and objectivity, that’s what happens I guess. Nothing inherently wrong with it just not a worldview I would bring into my financials

[@gsomethingsomething2658]

Spiritual or Machiavellian?

[@daniel_cunha]

But if he felt weakness he actually get it right, his live tells were correct.

[@yrudonking]

@@daniel_cunha He didnt feel anything. He had no show down value and Patricks range isnt strong there. So he just jammed. If anything its just kinda braindead

[@noThankyou-g5c]

​@@daniel_cunha Even assuming that's true, what tells did he give Patrick Antonius in return? Or what GTO mistakes did he make focusing so much on "attacking weakness" against fucking Patrick Antonius? He got called down with the exact type of range he was supposedly targeting. So somewhere along the way he made a mistake in judgement. This isn't a case of "oh it was a solid bluff candidate but Patrick happened to have it this time. what can you do? 🤷‍♂" Patrick had third pair

Does Carrel always lean over and watch his opponent constantly? I suppose he could be doing it to feign weakness but it must have given Antonius more information than he gained?

He's being kind because Galfond is kind.....Charlie is def not doing the GTO approach but there are certainly GTO principles to the hand. I think his river sizing is horrible and that's what Galfond should have been more critical of...and maybe...you know..playing 84o pre

[@keithneill2295]

At 00.46 Carrrel makes his mistake. He says "Umm.." before betting asn announce that his bet is small. He knows Patrick is a good tell reader so Carrel is making a false weak tell to suggest that he is strong. Bluffers want to appear strong. So a deliberate "Umm..." is suggesting he is weak.... which means he is strong. But he isn't strong. He only has 84. When Carrel shoves on the river Antonius remembers that Carrel repped being strong preflop. So he probably thinks Carrel has AK or AQ and has totally missed. Hence his hero call with his pair of 6s. Carrel got himself into this mess by being too clever.

[@nitthegrit7544]

Getting a read on your opponent for weak vs strong holdings is all well and good. It's a bit harder to get a read on whether your opponent will call =). Charlie was giving off more physical tells during this hand than Antonius, however I'm presuming some portion of them were manufactured.

Is he calling any sizing here? Does a smaller bet raise any alarms?

[@ewallt]

You went where I was going. It didn’t seem like he could get a fold with a big bet at the river, but a small bet to target the lower part of the range could work. I would have been really surprised if he had folded. I was surprised it was that difficult for him to call, but could be the pressure of being wrong and busting out, but I can’t imagine Charlie being balanced here.

[@falashlaba20]

I mean Carrell read it pretty good. He suspected Patrick was weak and shoving is right when you're tryna bully you're way to the pot. I don't think his play is to play, nor was his acting really... Patrick just did a sick call that very few could have done. So many hands had him beat. Risking your tournament on a pair of 6 is elite play. He's such a fun player to watch.

[@og1kanobi40]

I think Patrick gets a good read on Charlie.... at first, Charlie is holding his neck very gently.... with very little pressure. Once he goes all in... he sinks his jaw into his hand awkwardly and uncomfortably and darts a very nervous glance over at Patrik. I've seen lessor players do this same thing to a greater degree when they are uncomfortable, and they inevitably seem to be bluffing 90% of the time or at least semi bluffing when I have called them down or have seen them get called down. Charlie might want to work on that live tell or try not to bluff someone of Patrik's ilk next time!

[@joshuapatrick682]

Carrell so worried about “getting a read” he forgot that he was giving one as well…😅

[@RobRochon]

Charlie gave away a huge live read smiling and with the comfortable talk. Its an obvious act and forced because most players do their best to suppress this mannerism at a quiet table (this of course is different where you're at a table and there's lively talk and conversation going on already)

[@PaperPlateParody]

Is it wrong for me to think most value here is 92, 62, 52 and 43?

[@OmniMovement-d1z]

Tournament poker the hand is way less of a risky call. If this was a cash game it is a fold. Charlie does this with sets, two pair, and straight. The question then becomes is he over bluffing his range. Probably not because he is an online pro. So Patrick has to randomize his calling and folding. Solvers typically do this by suits.

[@anawilliams1332]

thats simply not true, ICM only plays a factor in tournaments, so there arent any hands you should be folding in a cash game but calling in a tournament. are you talking about stackdepth with them being shorter?

[@maliikac95]

beside patrick is antonius and antonius is patrick xD what a mastermind , very hard call but think long think correct cuz you break it up on parts and everything have meaning so yes this is very hard , i had maybe 1 call like that in my life in 5years but money was way less xD like 400E torney still feeling after you call your T.life on nothing on high card is absolute beast(ofc you know your opponent miss that str8 and flush draw cuz you give him rope for flop) move and when you have it people on table have looks so power stuff right there, i mean if you are true player and you are charlie you are shaking in your head however strong you are cuz T-800 just show you what is fear all abouth.

[@Charlie_Ses]

Awesome hand, and great to see an old legend of the game, and an apparent gent, own an arrogant little upstart. When I've watched this previously I've never understood how Patrik made the call tbh, it still seems incredible. I imagine the call was made mostly based on gut feeling and a read of Charlie than anything else, the boy looked mighty nervous when he shoved the river. An all time legendary hand though for sure.
