Quad Aces vs Royal Flush is Bond movie hand.

[@michaelbonsiero111]

Imagine if it wasn’t on video, trying to get anyone to believe it. “So yeah, Ray Romano is there, and I have pocket aces…”

[@sambarbasa1643]

A hand that you don't see everyday.

[@patrickr2601]

@@sambarbasa1643 A hand that you've never seen.

[@SpruceMoose304]

Scott Seiver telling the guy "you can't fold, I would think less of you", was genius reverse psychology.

[@alaskaguyd963]

I don't think it was psychology. He looked disgusted at the guy after he showed his aces.

[@JohnnyV123]

It was my guess for #1

[@jaket1858]

Should be but not because its not Ivey or Hellmuth

You would call this hand fake if you see it in a movie 🤣🤣🤣

[@soaringscott5635]

That dealer smiling and telling Helmuth that he just sat down is hilarious.

[@spoomba137]

"It was an aggressive call" is one of the best dead pan needles I've ever seen. Bonus points for Hellmuth giving crap to the new dealer. What a 🤡

[@SobotenbergFAV]

HONEY!

"I just sat down" LOL killed me

[@mariolopez-oi2td]

"he's some online guy" lol

It was actually a meme, a quote of Vanessa Rousso

[@stephenholmgren405]

RF over quads odds is 1 in 2.7 billion. BUT the odds of it being televised at this level is probably 1 in 100 trillion

[@bajorekjon]

The odds of it showing up in a bond movie is two to one

[@elducky9574]

It was redone for TV, they missed it the first time.

[@kosherquailbro5456]

And the odds of doing all that in front of Ray Romano......

[@marnix-h]

Gamble with quad Aces😂

[@m1keyfreshhh256]

Mikes response “no im just gunna fold” while absolutely really laughing is a thing of gold

[@TheSherlockHomez]

man how does sheik always manage to be the least sympathetic person even when hes sitting at a table with the Mouth

[@danwoods5501]

Hands that haven’t shown up yet that I feel I know are gonna be in the top 10: - Scotty Nguyen ‘you call and it’s gonna be all over baby!’ - Duhamel/Affleck - Moneymaker bluff on Farha - Ungar wins in 1997 - Doyle wins with 10-2

[@gunders85]

Katz v Drinan aces v aces in One Drop probably

[@iangreaves7438]

Romanello fold

[@jeradballard7967]

Moneymaker bluff is #1. Your others are definitely in the top 10. A very strong list.

[@jeradballard7967]

​@@bibbe2078 it was earlier on the list

[@StFidjnr]

This is the last of the prelims. Now we are into the home stretch the TOP 10 WSOP Hands of all time

[@zachvaught7346]

Having the Moneymaker/Ivey hand anywhere other than 1 is absurd. That hand literally changed the course of poker history forever and kept who many consider the GOAT from likely going on to win the Main Event.

[@gunders85]

Dont worry. The Moneymaker bluff v Farha will be number one

[@Kanders190]

How many of us would even be in this comment section if that river bricked out and Moneymaker finished outside of the top 5?

[@gunders85]

@@Kanders190 They couldnt make the entire top 10 Moneymaker's most crucial hands just because of the poker boom that was ignited, and the bluff was always the more talked about

[@jeradballard7967]

Correct that "The Bluff of the Century" will be #1. I can get behind the Ivey hand being higher though.

[@zachvaught7346]

@@jeradballard7967 Moneymaker isn’t there to make the bluff without that Ivey hand that’s why I rank the Ivey hand higher. Also, not just because of it propelling Moneymaker to the title but of who it kept from likely winning. I know there’s obviously no guarantee, but I think most would agree that Ivey picking up a double up there more than likely propels him to the title (at least he would be the odds on favorite). And right now the Main Event bracelet is the only thing missing from Phil Ivey’s accomplishments

[@dhunter8314]

My guess is the Chris moneymaker bluff heads up against Sammy farah will be #1

[@leonardjulius6098]

That’s a great guess!

[@toffola80]

my pick: "you call, it's gonna be all over, baby!"

[@BerardiOhio94]

#20 Mike is 100% right, he didn't nothing wrong.

[@LebronCCP]

Nothing he didn’t wrong.

[@Kanders190]

He dropped an f-bomb. This was during a 2-3 year span where that was an automatic 10 minute penalty. One of the dumbest rules they ever tried to institute and it didn't last long. I remember Matusow getting nearly an hour long penalty one day 1 that year after a tirade.

[@CrazeeAdam]

Also Shawn is an a hole. Mike may be annoying, but he's harmless overall. Shawn is a bully and deserved to be called out.

[@elasmojones]

@@CrazeeAdam He did a taxi driver "You talking to me" intimidation routine. That was kinda funny.

[@zappadali8696]

How I didn’t see Mike as a coke head in my youth only goes to show my innocence…

[@breadandcircuses321]

So many fun things in hand 19 one of my all time favorites

[@ProdRaju]

Why is he talking about everyone’s clothes so much 😂

[@squirrelturdz6868]

The moneymaker Ivey hand was the most history changing hand, imo, moneymaker loses, the game doesn’t blow up from the moneymaker effect, history of the game could be completely different….🌎✌️

[@TP_Gillz]

If Moneymaker doesn't hit that ACE on the river... This entire YT channel NEVER EXISTS. And over half of us in this comment section never play a hand in our lives. Just think about that. Ivey would win the main, and it would just be another year. Honestly that hand should be #1 just for the implications it had on the entire game.

[@jlaux7]

I'm guessing the AA vs AA in the 2014 One Drop will be in the top 10.

[@bajorekjon]

If I lose a hand with quad aces i'm quitting poker for a while

[@weijingburr2392]

"I know you had a set... puddin"" - HHHHHAAAAHAHAHAAa

[@kenthehobo]

Remember when the turn and river were 4th and 5th street?

[@cobrakaidojo7414]

Scott Seiver could be cast as Harvey Weinstein.

[@StatsRob1975]

This better be the Top 10 of Top 10's lots of great hands in this set

[@labeled1]

I'd never seen Chan's slow play after flopping a straight. That was great!

[@SpruceMoose304]

Adrian Attenborough's 20 minute tank fold with bottom pair will be number 1

[@thamiosmgtow3678]

Tf is on 15th place who really cares, that's just bad hand

[@aheroictaxidriver3180]

#20 How does two barely above average players, both needing double doses of Midol, qualify as a top 20 hand? These vids are garbage. Criminal that #14 isn't higher: they even had Action Dan sitting there.

[@thewolf5444]

#12 Losing with Quad Aces to a runner runner Royal Flush is the absolute sickest.

[@CarlosZelaya-ey6mf]

#16....."Johnny F*ckin Chan" part from Rounders 😂

[@jonahmishaga1995]

Everyone talks about royal flush guy, no one talks about Quad aces guy. Salute to a fallen soldier

[@Hellcat4545]

Scott looks like he smelled a fart every time he plays

[@kobeyballer]

Oh and #11 should have actually been #1. Most important hand in poker history

[@joshuapatrick682]

# 16 was talking about combiniturics before it was even cool…. What year was that again?

[@patdegree6785]

#14 is the worst hand wsop history. I watch and still hope for a different river

[@stevencantler]

Did Mike really knock him out then walk around the table and shake everyone’s hands lol😅

[@brianwillis8447]

The disrespect 😂

[@ensomniiac]

Crazy Dnegs called Aces while holding an Ace blocker. Unreal that fact he's so sure of it

[@benjaminmuller7517]

This scream will be always in my mind from money maker... I play poker for 15 years and I love it... He open the door for dreamers like me 😂❤

[@Voltanaut]

I figured Moneymaker's winning hand would've been #1. It'll be interesting to see the top ten.

[@MG-po6jc]

Yep either that or his bluff vs Farha heads up

[@stevencassidy447]

Number 14 should be number 1. If that ace doesnt hit the river. Phil Ivey wins the main event and there is no poker boom.

[@dhunter8314]

Def can make a case for that, but also the bluff with moneymaker vs Sammy is another HUGE one. Think that’ll be #1

[@christopherscooper58]

He called with Queen Ten Honey

[@SkilledTheory]

I was fully expecting #11 to be #1. I have no idea what the top 10 can even be at this point.

[@eagleboy2202iam]

You call it’s all over baby

[@MrVIP1234]

This should be number 1. This basically started the great poker boom

[@kobeyballer]

Idk how that isn't #1. Arguably most important hand in poker history

[@SpruceMoose304]

Dan Weinman winning a 3 way flip with JJ vs QQ and KK maybe there

[@michaelmarsico9740]

Affleck vs Duhamel AA vs JJ .. big one I haven’t seen yet

[@krolik1157]

"Queen-10, honey" has to be the most iconic meltdown of all time, at the WSOP at least. Entire history of poker changes if Moneymaker doesn't catch that Ace against Ivey. My #1 and #2 have to be the Moneymaker bluff on Farha and the Affleck-Duhamel hand, the latter still hurts to watch -- you can just see his soul leaving his body.

[@maartenstoker4734]

Hellmuth is a nit

[@GunnarRatliff]

#19 is my personal #1, it’s flawless in so many ways

[@1P0T]

Never seen anything like 12.

[@richgiordano2784]

#18 is a joke. He 4 bets all in. Worst case is Qs and it’s a flip. Daniel schtick is so old. Still always looks around to see who is looking at him during a hand. Get over yourself.

[@briggsy9768]

I love Raymer

[@marcrichardson517]

When folks say “the best hand won”….cant stand that. That’s like sayin “the best team should always win”…& they don’t… How’s the sayin go?!? “Wasn’t in the cards”….🤷🏾‍♂️ Dayum I love this game…

[@waynescoble7072]

#13. " he called a raise with Q/10 honey"... actually its suited and Phil's called with much worse. His "idioting" and swearing really needs to be penalised. Other people are penalised for it...eg Molina for saying fxck against Gold( thogh he didnt really complete the word. Double standards!!! . If poker is his life as he so plaintively bleats then he needs to treat the game with more respect and be held to the same standards as everyone else. I love seeing him beaten but only because hes a poor sport,and because theres a haha factor there when hes beat he gets airtime and pandered to. Its the whinging when he misreads...its like a toddler dropping his icecream.

[@Harkness78]

I don't get why #15 is so high. Dude hits on the flop and improves his pocket pair over his opponents, they play it out in a natural way, guy with pocket 10s feels like they are best opponent is unlikely to have a J, he loses.....

[@manilowmaniak]

Norm makes some of the stupidest comments sometimes. He said Seiver slow played his pocket aces exquisitely, but how exquisite it was it if he allowed a 3rd club to show up and he ended up having to fold because he slow played himself out of the hand??

[@stark_syndrome7857]

That first call by the guy in charge was ridiculous. I hate Mike but he’s 100 percent right. Even the commentators said it. So he told the guy to shut the f up, wow is he really that weak of a man that it hurt his feelings or did he know he shouldn’t have done what he did.

[@joshuapatrick682]

Dont know why everyone hated/es on MoneyMaker for the AQ hand, he had the best hand on the flop and beat a fair portion of Ivey’s value shoves.

[@Charvez]

Why was 18 even on here... that's an easy fold with just AK and he raised then went all in after your 4 bet come on that's an easy decision

[@nedcassley5169]

I don't know how Negreanu ever loses. -- Because he doesn't listen to what he says. [!!!]
