WHAT JUST HAPPENED???????

This high stakes poker hand from Hustler Casino Live needs to be watched to be believed! Andy Stacks takes on the infamous Martin Kabrhel and decides to run a rather crazy 3 barrel bluff, but will it work?
Jonathan believes that the preflop raise from Andy Stacks might be a little bit loose with just J9 offsuit as there are still 4 people left to act. You should use suited hands to raise as they give you more equity to hit flushes!
He likes Andy's bet on the flop as usually when you have a draw that completely lacks showdown value you usually want to bet as you can get a lot of better hands to fold and if you are called you still have equity to make a very strong hand!
When you are playing in extremely deep stacked cash games your semi bluffs should come from hands that are drawing to the nuts or very close to the nuts! Andy has a pretty bad draw with no backdoor clubs on the flop.
Jonathan would have preferred Andy to use a hand like AT to bluff with because at least it is drawing to the nuts and may also be strong enough to win if he were to hit an ace.
He does like the fact that Andy now bluffs the river when the ace comes as it puts a lot of Martin's hands in the world of pain, like the one that he has! The shove from Martin is fairly confusing as he has a good hand to bluff catch with especially as his shove will give Andy incredible odds to call if he were to have a stronger hand.
The action in this crazy high stakes poker hand starts with Andy Stacks raising from the cutoff to $2,400 with J9o. Infamous table talker Martin Kabrhel deciding to defend from the 3rd blind with KJc.
The flop gives Martin a monster pair and a flush draw and gives Andy just a gutshot. Andy continues to tell his story with a $2,300 bet but Martin is going nowhere! He decides to put in the check raise to $7,000. Andy then responds with a 3-bet to $20,000! Martin makes the easy call.
The turn brings no help to Andy as it is an off suit 6. Martin checks to him and Andy decides to keep bluffing and bets $42,000 with just jack high! Martin again makes the call.
The river is an off suit ace which can't be too thrilling for Kabrhel. He checks once more and Andy decides to go for the third barrel and fires $150,000 on the river! What will Martin do when facing such a large bet? Watch this video to find out more!

Martin knows things we dont know thats why he got 12M life winning 😂😂😂😂

[@michaelsparks1571]

A few live-factors that I saw that maybe in-context Martin picked up on to believe he was still ahead/Andy's bluffing. They don't 100% mean bluff, but they do polarize the possibilities even more than the overbet I'd think: 1. Andy's talking before the hand about being stuck A LOT already, so he may fight harder for pots he's not nutted on. 2. Andy checks his card suits for the first time on the river. Which is fine to check if you may unblock Clubs, but after leading all the action before, that seems a bit weird as you'd expect he'd have checked earlier in the hand for that. To first check now can seem like you're only looking at what you block or can represent, not what you actually have. 3. Andy's chip fumbling before betting 150k, especially combined with #1, seems a bit too weak. For someone as accustomed to these stakes as Andy to be acting that nervous/tilted throughout the hand really sticks out.

[@coolvanilla300c9]

I noticed the chip fumbling too, he also touched his face right after that. I saw a lot of weakness in just that short period, coupled with being mega-stuck. Brilliant call by Martin.

[@OneOut1]

Chip fumbling is a know false read to represent weakness. While wanting a call I'll sometimes randomly knock a stack over when opponent isn't directly looking but will notice.

I love this play he realizes that he couldn’t have the straight, then goes for it with the all and then needles him really bad at the end of it.

[@muferguson]

Andy has to max polarise if he wants to bluff river credibly. 150k leaves the door open to Ac + Jc/Tc calling down too frequently, and he doesn't block any of that. The overbet shove is "only" 2x pot. I actually think the sizing he chose makes the least sense because he would go smaller with weaker value hands like 2 pair if he was even going to bet those. I think this is what Martin has picked up on.

[@maxstoegi5828]

Yeah, river should be 3/4 or jam

[@77oregano77]

But I think if Andy goes smaller Martin will still bluff shove. All in or check would have been best imo.

​@@mikeryan5856 BuT hE WoN ThE HaNd!! but yea seriously its amazing how many people in the comments "love" the river shove. worse than KJ is never calling, andy isnt betting that size with just an ace, he might even check A10, AJ back on the river. Martin essentially shoved over the top with a bluff catcher on the river.

[@TheWonkadaddy]

I think Little's instinct is correct. Martin is attacking an overbet by Andy with Andy's AJ/AT flop gutter bet-reraises that now made top pair and bet large for value/transparency. And if Martin is against other rando bluffs it also works. it's kind of cray, but it is very Andy to flop spazz and now go for huge value on this river when he makes top pair. Had Andy had AJ/AT everyone would be lauding Martin's genius in full.

[@jasonbatteiger2421]

if andy had aj or a10 against martin specifically he'd be forced to call for that price. and after he sees this hand, even assuming martin's otherwise tight (from jungle's comment and andy's this appears to be the assumption), would have to call with say aj having to only call 104,600 to get into a pot of 648,500 (16% equity only, which i'd assume most of these high stakes guys is more than enough as they'd have enough bluffs)

I actually hate the shove from Martin on the river. While it worked out for him here, literally no better hands would fold for such a small raise.

[@jackolini]

You're right except I don't think Andy is even value-betting just a one pair Ax type of hand given a) the action b) how deep they are. Andy either has something super strong or nothing and going all-in is dumb when Andy actually has a strong hand. Martin should have just called on the river.

[@Womenandwine]

He would be getting too big of odds to fold. He would have to call. Especially against Martin.

[@jasonbatteiger2421]

@@Womenandwine exactly, he's turning a bluff catcher into a bluff (does have the j blocker to the j10) where it maybe only folds a small % of his opponent's betting range (unless we assume andy over pots all 1 pair of aces along with having played an ace this way pre-river in the first place)

[@ps9501]

Exactly. I was thinking risk/ reward is not there. He was risking 150k putting his opponents against corner if they had better hands like AK where they would be forced to call that.

[@jasonray3937]

I wouldn’t have played the hand in the first place, and if I did I would have folded to the check raise on the flop. If, for some reason, I was in Andy’s position I would definitely bet the blank turn, and a big bet, aiming at trying to get a marginal King or a flush draw to fold.

[@nl244]

Martin was blocking the J of clubs which is why he made that bluff at the end. He felt that Andy was bluffing or over value betting an ACE or two pairs and he wanted to represent a straight with his blocker. Risky move but it paid off

[@WillPage]

Your op never never never shoves with only 100k more to call. That is the point. I think he wanted to call and thought if I get shown A9 off I will be gutted, I may aswell risk 100 more because you can't possibly not have it, plus he has a J, I personally love it, and have thought about this idea myself, I folded top pair once for only 40 more in a 400 pot because I knew the girl had it.

[@fredericgervais4263]

yeah to me it makes perfect sense, its either complete air or A10. You can't win from A10 so you need to shove. Also the betting pattern from Andy lets me to believe this is not QQ and certainly not KK which you block. Martin blocks the flush which leaves opp with less bluffs but what does he have then, two pair? Maybe but again you have a blocker and might very well get him of that hand because you then have all the straights. it really is only A10 or air so shove is the only move. really well played. Hats off

[@nitthegrit7544]

This is 100% a bet where Martin picks up on a live tell from Andy, and decides to act on it. Math doesn't explain this move.

[@hadrianthegreatwall5768]

Martin turn his Jc into a Bluff is brilliant, he knows a pair of King is too weak to just call there. Andy did a great job but unfortunately his opponent has the nut blocker. If Andy shoved the river first he would’ve take down the pot. If Martin thinks it through with his shove against Andy that was a very great play, unless he is a lunatic and play whatever😂Ps: of course it would’ve be much greater if Martin just Hero call here

[@GamblewithJimmy]

You can throw all strategies out the window and your logic when you're playing this type of $ game. Andy relies on bluffing and is very experienced in situations like this. He doesn't make the river play without that Ace hitting. On the other side give Martin a ton of credit and balls. He not only made a amazing read he jammed everything. Most players in this spot can't find a call and surrender with one pair. Martin has earned my respect regarding his poker play especially in tournaments and now big cash

[@dealerG]

Martin is basically using your logic on the flop that Andy should have a lot of *nutted* draws in his range, i.e. *a* *lot* of AcXc plus AJ and AT, in which case the check shove does make sense since he blocks a large amount of Andy's value like AK, KQ, KK, and JT. It's very much a case of know your villain because Andy is for sure the type to have these hands in his range, value bet light on the river and find the hero fold after a check shove.

[@hcorazao1]

I’m checking the turn about 75 percent of the time. Typically if I bet turn I’m also betting river. Maybe 2/3’s of the time I’m betting river also when I bet turn. Clubs and board paired rivers are cards to not bluff on.

[@knox8113]

I understand the shove. He blocks basically the major draw that got here JTcc. He is going to get Andy to fold even hands as strong as Aces up bc it just screams JT for Martin. Beautiful poker.

[@jasonbatteiger2421]

of course martin's bluff catcher turned into a bluff is awesome if andy would ever fold 2 pair+ to this small river raise, but i doubt anybody is folding those hands to these high stakes guys (they have bluffs obviously, only having to win 16% of the time on the river in andy's shoes)

[@jasonbatteiger2421]

what's funny is that most humans wouldn't say bet this way on river (overpot) with say a10, aj etc, but against martin it sure looks like a great idea. you look polar but really are linear with one pair ace but if your opponents are just going to give you awesome pot odds and turn 2nd pair/nut blocker (j) into a bluff with an awesome price you'll clean up.

On the turn, I’d bet small. If called I’d bomb the river, if raised on the turn I’d just let it go. I only play 1/2 or 1/3 and the play would be a lot more profitable down there Than in games like this

[@EarlZMoade]

Always find it funny when commentators think having flush blockers in a spot like this makes it a worse call when literally the opposite is true (as Andy isn't going to bluff w/ Kc/Jc so we unblock). Especially Jc since it blocks Andys nut combos. Guess he's worried Andy bluffs some Ax for some reason, shove surprises me though over a call. Unsure Martin would actually expect Andy to fold value.

[@newstandardaccount]

yes I totally understand the point about flush blockers being bad bluff candidates (makes it less likely your opponent has a flush draw that they'll fold), but the raise from Martin was mysterious to me. What hands does Andy fold here that you're behind?

[@jyaok2513]

It’s a good bluff. Having J club there is so important. Because Andy can’t have the combo draw. And it is very unlikely that Andy can play any JT without club like that. So technically only Martin can have JT there.

[@jamesireland6606]

Nice play Martin

[@Rikihhhh15]

There is of course a lot of respect between the players because you can make such a play only if you think that ur opponent is capable of folding some of his value hands. Having said that, Martin it's just a genius player, a jam like that doesn't even come to the mind of a mid/winning player.

[@johnsonequity1387]

That jam comes to the mind of an idiot. No sense at all and nothing to win. If Andy is bluffing Martin wins anyway. If not Martin loses the all in in a stupid way.

[@alexleal8246]

Who said something along the lines of "If you show a bluff I'll quit poker" It was Andy was it but I can't be sure exactly what he said I could only hear clearly "if.... I'll quit poker". Theoretically, it was a bad bluff by Martin (mostly because of his stack which gave Andy huge odds, plus blocking flush draws) but he owned Andy really well and I believe Andy folds 2 pair there idk about a set (probably calls a set and the strait/nuts which Martin blocks with his J).

this is an odd one, like j.little says, this only makes sense if somebody in martin's seat 1. thinks andy is overpotting river with a10 or aj (or maybe kj/k10) and 2. would fold those for another 104,600 getting awesome pot odds by that point (2 for sure is more likely i'd think, with some players 2 is quite likely if your image is good, jungle makes a comment where he either means or intends to mean that martin cannot have bluffs here, also andy has a comment where he thinks martin has to have the nuts here (j10), which makes sense that j10 is a large part of martin's range (should be anyway, IS for a LOT of humans), as most players wouldn't be taking front door hands like one pair of kings + nut blocker into river bluff for that small all in size)

[@jasonbatteiger2421]

also if martin DID want to turn kj into a river bluff, it'd be better if he over potted either bet or jammed anyway (not check raised like here), UNLESS andy is known to overbet pot thin value hands (1 pair aces here) then fold getting great price when he only needs to win 16% of the time. it's possible andy is like that, i don't know.

How much less likely % wise does it make it for your opponent to be on a flush draw if you’re holding 1 club in your hand and there’s 2 clubs in the flop?

13 total clubs 11 vs 10 remaining if your opponent calls all suited cards ~9% less likely HOWEVER the reasonable player plays a range, so the club you have cuts out a portion of the range.

Before going all crazy about live tells and soul reading, think about what actually happened. It's not like Martin has air, he has a K. If he really thought Andy was bluffing, he'd just call. Andy isn't potting river if he has just an A, he's likely checking back. So for Martin to shove, he has to think his K is no good and he's trying to get Andy to fold 2p+. In which case Martin doesn't think Andy is bluffing, he thinks he can get Andy to fold out most of his value hands. Also, when Andy 3-bets the flop, he's very rarely going to show up with J10. The only reasonable combo of J10 to 3-bet flop would be J10cc, and since Martin has the Jc he knows Andy can't have that, and thus very unlikely to be able to have the straight.

I'm calling or raising this all day. Andy feigns weakness by checking his cards after the river plus the long "decision". He is weak im snap calling this or re raising which he folds

[@detpoker]

Martin's shove is an extremely under bluffed spot given the action from start to finish. Even with the great pot odds, I can see 2 pairs and sets folding. He has the KJcc, so he blocks TJcc which is a hand that would've played the same way. Also blocking KTcc & AJcc that Andy would play that way which isn't ideal for bluffing. Andy was repping QQ & KK with the flop 3bet and turn pot bet. AA with Ac would most likely call the raise on the flop and not increase the pot size oop. Martin felt that he can get QQ and KK to fold with that shove all things considered being an extremely under bluffed spot. It's almost a 0% bluff spot vs most opponents. Even at 10% bluff, Andy isn't getting the right pot odds to call with QQ and KK.

[@grimreaper1366]

@detpoker i understand the point. but isnt the Jc a terrible card to have for martin? and would QQ or KK really fold? i mean andy only needs 14% equity or so and he would only lose to AA, JT and KK. and the flushdraw bricked and andy didnt block clubs.

[@detpoker]

@@grimreaper1366 Just being an extremely under bluffed spot given the pot odds. It's really hard to call with anything less than nuts and second nuts. Ranges got so narrow with the flop 3bet and call and b100% turn and call. It's like playing against a super nit and he raises river, you'd have to fold everything but nuts and second nuts. This spot is rarely ever a bluff given the all in raise size. Martin found the play with Jc which is very impressive because he blocks the nuts TJcc that would've possibly taken that line. The Jc is a good thing not a bad thing to bluff with.

[@GreasyNeilTyson]

Actually if Andy is semi bluffing with the J-10 on flop/turn he must have J-10 of clubs which Martin blocks, so I think having flush blockers helped him in his decision.

[@gigglesinside]

Not true...he had J9o so why can't he have JTo? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@GreasyNeilTyson]

@@gigglesinside because he wouldn’t have bet flop and turn without redraw to the flush.

[@gigglesinside]

Except he did with J9o so of course he would 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@GreasyNeilTyson]

@@gigglesinside why do you face palm weirdo?… I’m saying the exact reason why he got called is because he SPECIFICALLY tried to bluff with that type of hand… 🤦🏻‍♂️ 🤦🏻‍♂️ 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@gigglesinside]

​@GreasyNeilTyson Cause you need a face palm thick donkey! If he's barrelling J9 offsuit then JT doesn't need to be suited for him to barrell....weirdo

[@roobbeei7193]

i think the all in is not that great, he has very little percentage of fold equity but luckily for him it worked cause andy had J high:))

[@InUrFace2012]

andy looks nervous waiting for Martins decision

[@EfficientRVer]

I usually hate watching Martin. You can compete at any level without being an ahole, and he fails that test routinely. In this hand, crunching the ranges and combos was of course something Martin did, but I think his surprising shove was due to an additional factor. Some of us would apply that additional factor at a gut level of "I saw a tell, and I'm going to trust my gut on it" and call. Others would (insanely, if you ask me) shove the extra 104K "to avoid having to show". I can guarantee you, that was not Martin's reasoning. I think he simply saw the chip-fumbling tell that Andy was weak, and spent some time deciding which hands Andy would fumble chips with. Then figured out whether a shove would have enough fold equity against enough of them, to justify a shove. Especially any nut flush draw which ended up with only the spiked ace. Then he had to weigh the chance that his king was a winner, and the extremely high chance that nothing he beats would pay him off, and also the small chance that a spiked ace would make a hero call. His perceived EV for shove vs call vs fold, may have all been close, and it sure looks like at least two of them were close in his mind. Bottom line, I think he decided that spiking an ace was pretty solidly in the range of hands Andy would be nervous enough about betting, to fumble chips almost as often as with a stone cold bluff. When Andy fumbled the chips because he was planning to bluff with nothing, he needed to realize that it would reduce the fold equity of his bluff. But he was desperate to reverse the bleeding, so bluffed anyway. Pretty terrible play, regardless of it otherwise being a "good hand to bluff with" in that spot. The fumble turned a marginal and ambitious bluffing spot, into a "can't bluff if I give him credit for noticing" spot. I've seen people with the nuts fake a fumbling tell, and it very rarely fools me, unless I only caught the end of it. If I was watching the whole thing, which I normally do, I can't recall ever being fooled by an intentional fumbling reverse tell. I've been fooled by a coincidental fumble not caused by nervousness or hand strength, but that doesn't make tell analysis any less accurate than any other kind of analysis.

Someone said they'd "quit poker"....

[@jaroslav-6027]

Despite Martin being an absolute d*** on on poker tables, he is actually a true mathematical genius. He's on an absolutely different level than a lot of his opponents.

[@lojkas8924]

True nobody on this table was on his level thats why they all pack bags when he come to play next day

Hi martin

[@dustyguadian7570]

Andy fumbled chips on another hand where he tried to bluff MM off AA

[@andifuture2825]

I love how Martin said " Strasse fertig" which is gypsi-german and means street done

[@gandriel1374]

He is like poker Boby fisher. "controversal genius". He finished one of hardest matematical school in Czech republic. So the only way how to beat him is acuse him from cheating.

[@casolo9206]

Worst all in ever you’re not getting called by worse hands and you’re already beating bluffs and his stack is not even big to get folds from a pair of aces

[@iknewiwould]

Makes sense..A10 might sigh fold.. but idk if that bets 150k on river

[@DonPaluso]

Thats why you work for a salary and never made money playing poker mr specialist :) good luck in life

[@Andymurray2811]

I don't know if Andy calls with anything here. Martin would have to be crazy to shove anything but the nuts here. I'm tempted to call it a genius play.

[@spanky3494]

Here is your answer. His read is bluff (he also comments it after) AND doesn't want to show his hand = shove, not called, muck cards everyone then is left speculating (which is also exactly what happens right after)... Pretty simple really. Just because you're strong read is catching a bluff doesn't always mean it's just a call I've done this a lot just to not show my hand (mostly to maintain a very tight image and then then the table speculation is always he's got the nuts and then I just nod and move on). Chips AND information are ammo at the table (table image too)

[@Andymurray2811]

@@spanky3494 This is a televised show. They can see his hand in 2 hours. So that makes no sense

[@og1kanobi40]

Couple of observations.... What does he represent with that Ace on the river---hitting the straight... but he was 4 betting like he had a non-drawing made hand, not broadway/flush drawing hand, plus Martin had them so they blocked that? Could he be rep'n AA maybe...not likely, although that would make sense.... but the quick bet on the flop after Martin's check was a bit too ansy.... followed by some nervous banter and an equally nervous giggle, made it double sus.....then another "all-too" quick 4 bet without any thought, (If he had something like a set, he might try to act a bit weaker)....two big overbets..... all this equals to Andy looking like he was about to cry after Martin went all in.... heck of a play by Martin. He's not all talk!

[@matthewpierce4714]

What is the value in shoving this river? Sure he blocks the nuts but he can’t know Andy has an air ball. Shove makes zero sense imo

[@jackolini]

It's a genius play only the other world class players understand (see all the comments defending Martin's play).

[@MsStassie]

shoving the river to represent the nuts for table-image probably. He seemed certain that he already won and he continued to claim he had the straight after the hand was over.

[@brentp.4090]

If Martin peeks up he would see Andy's discomfort. But I haven't seen enough if Andy's games to truly call his actions as such

[@hymnofashes]

I would give this one up after getting check raised and then called.

[@brentp.4090]

To me it seems like Martin knows his player!

I think if Andy had a hand worthy of a call, he does but Martin knew Andy was full of shit. Live him or hate him, the guy's got game!

[@Cargolinks303]

Yeah he got game

[@jimmykoh2602]

Great shove by Martin on the river!!! He is trying to represent JT n fold out AX if Andy has it.. Instead of calling n lose to AX, Martin choose to shove n oni losing to JT the nuts.. Great play by Martin!!!

[@jackolini]

Andy isn't betting just an Ax hand though. The all-in was stupid IMO.

[@steveharding8965]

I don't get why he went all in.

[@johnsonequity1387]

There is no sense in Martin's all in. If Andy has just an A he is going to call for just +100k.

[@varunbaid1]

Will he ? Will you ?

[@ThisThingEaten]

If I were Andy, I would've folded a long time ago.

[@lafk-lottyenaforrokave4700]

Yeah Andy is here for making money, not to have fun at all. He is kind of a boring character I dont remember any kind of joke or easy going moment from him, he is just greedy and focuses on his profit without having any chill/fun moment. Also when he is laughing, that is still looks so artificial.
