You never know what you might see on The Lodge Live stream. You might see Pocket Aces vs Pocket Kings. You may see the nut straight lose to a full house after the board pairs on the river. There's a good chance you will see loads of straddles (and double straddles, and triple straddles). Players go all-in blind or play poker hands after looking at just one card. That's just what poker is like in Texas!
The stream regularly features Lodge owners Brad Owen, Andrew Neeme, and Doug Polk. Players like Rampage, Mariano, and Igor Kurganov has also graced The Lodge Live felt. And who knows? One day The Lodge may even host players like Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, or similarly huge poker names.

That Q high call by Doug is SICK. Respect.

[@randylahey8207]

Definitely a nice call, but not quite as outlandish as it may seem. Alex didn't raise pre, so it's easier to discount Ace and King high hands. Flop checks through, and the turn pairs the board. Alex bets small, and Q high is a standard call. Once he bets that much on a blank river, he's completely polarized. It's either a 6, an occasional monster like Jacks full, or air. Small blind into big blind, and someone as aggressive as Foxen WITH a distinct chip advantage so he's more likely to put pressure on, makes this weighted towards a call. Obviously tougher to read that and do it real time, and Doug is a master of that. Truly top level player...

[@ChadGPT-1.0]

@@randylahey8207Appreciate this breakdown.

[@ML-sj3gi]

So, any K is a standard raise from the SB? Also, If you are ruling out A or K, the J is more likely. He bets 60% pot. How much is a reasonable bet for a J? How much is reasonable for a 6? If you think he should bet 30% of something, then you also think he should fold a J when he is raised, and bet 30% with a 6?

[@randylahey8207]

@@arcadion448 🤣🤣😂 😂 I LOVED Garrett before that. He's still a crusher, but that was ridiculous. You have to KNOW someone cheated to get that worked up on camera and that flustered. Very surprising for someone usually so collected...

[@Wayf4rer]

Even though Perkins is kinda fishy he always makes these big cash games fun. I suppose it's easier to stay off tilt when you're worth 400+ million though.

[@pugsnhogz]

*because Perkins is kinda fishy

[@arcadion448]

@@pugsnhogz, he didn't make the majority of his money through poker. And he's 54, so not as good as the later generation players who grinded their way to the top and continually improving their craft by learning the latest poker theory. Poker is no longer like Brunson's day anymore, now it's heavily math based. It's not a surprise that many top players had a strong math background while in school.

MUCH Respect. Doug Polk is the KING. Short stacked. That Q High call and the way FOXEN was betting.... To see through that.... Any pair, he would have lost half his stack.

As far as I'm aware, commentators cannot be heard by players in any way, until they get to watch the same footage we get after the fact. Part of the kind of device that is scanned for as people enter the room.

[@winningsince1992]

Tell me you know nothing about poker or broadcasting poker without telling me....Commentators don't see hole cards or Commentat until the 30 min delay.

I dont know ohw he makes that Q high call.. wttfff?!?

[@ChadGPT-1.0]

Not going to lie… it must be challenging for others not to question the conflict of interest with Doug playing at The Lodge with that Queen high call on the first hand of this video. I probably am just outing my inexperience here but I would love to see/hear a breakdown of how he can make that call there. Edit: For the record I can’t see it being worth it to anyone for there to be any shenanigans and I love what Doug and the crew are doing at The Lodge. I can simply see how difficult it is to separate themselves from the questions of others if they come up so feel I should question myself despite not being on that side of the argument naturally.

[@Jolly-Green-Steve]

Let's go over that queen high call hand. If someone is in the small blind and it gets folded around to them if they have an Ace or King high hand they know they are most likely ahead of any random two the big blind has so they will raise. So you can pretty much eliminate those. The flop was jack/rag/rag so even in a multi-way pot nobody flops a pair more often then not so even more so heads up it being even more likely neither player paired the flop. Do to his check on the flop/weak bet on turn/over-bet on river this is most likely a bluff because if he somehow paired the jack he would have bet around 25k and probability wise it is very unlikely he has the trip six as well. Putting all this information together is how you wind up with a call in this situation. People who play poker everyday for a living have a high understanding of probability like this one that amateur and recreational players just have no clue about and can only sum it up to cheating somehow.
