The absolute worst river for the aces!!

I might be convinced that Aces are only good preflop after seeing this hand!🤣

Ed shoves a million with 8-7, Mads folds pocket 9s, and Daniel calls with ace high…

Be honest, would you make this call for a million? Or is Daniel the only person alive who calls here?

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@CoinPoker_OFF Heads-up PLO at those stakes isn’t poker, it’s a heart rate test 😂

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@PokerNovaplays Aces actually holding up AND getting paid? Rare footage

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@PokerStarsUSA Super weird call, I would've folded the second he put those chips out

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@PokerReactClip I know the opp was jumping with joy and then extremely mad lol😂

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@ChinUpGoAgain It takes huge damn balls to bluff the very first hand you have and not just fold it

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@pokerdeals_ Will there be a bot that goes all-in every hand?

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@TeamPokerFlops @BallyPokerLive Good read, he knew he didn't have it

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@HCLPokerShow When you hit a wheel for $77K, the dealer deserves a cut 😂

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@FightTopia That river all-in was not right, in my opinion

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@CrazyVids Only Daniel could talk himself out of a straight and be right

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@pokerdeals_ Yeah, he might have been most entertaining, but he is super annoying, I'm glad he lost

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@CrazyVids Even when he had the best hand on the flop he STILL managed to get out turned, Phil might be the best and worst running player in poker history🤣

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@PokerNews I'd love to have a trophy like this one day!! Need to learn how to play tournaments, though

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@WPT @phil_hellmuth He didn't get the corn on the cob comment😭😭😭

[James @AlwaysALLins]

@crymedariver 84% on the turn and the one card he didn’t want shows up. Set of 4s, I feel this one in my soul 💀

Postlegate: the biggest poker scandal of the livestream era 🧵

Picture this:
Stones Gambling Hall, near Sacramento. A low-stakes livestream game. And one player, Mike Postle, who almost NEVER seems to make a wrong decision.

Perfect folds. Perfect hero calls. Perfect bluffs. Between 2018 and 2019 he reportedly won around $250K on the stream.

In September 2019, commentator Veronica Brill went public: something wasn't right. She posted an 18-minute video of his most suspicious hands, and within days the story was on ESPN's SportsCenter.

Then it got CRAZY:
• 24 players filed a $30 million lawsuit, which grew to 88 plaintiffs
• Postle sued a dozen people, including Daniel Negreanu and Phil Galfond, for $330 MILLION in defamation
• In 2020 a judge dismissed the players' case against him
• Most of the players settled with the casino side
• Postle's own lawsuit fell apart, and courts ordered him to pay legal fees to Brill and Todd Witteles

No criminal charges. No conviction. In 2022 the last of the cases was closed through his bankruptcy.

So what do you think? Greatest heater ever, or the biggest scandal poker has ever seen? 👇

@crymedariver That's right! Also, I will be posting more hustles to avoid (or use to your advantage), so stay tuned!

Picture this:

A guy at a poker table offers you a $100 even-money side bet before the flop:

"If a Jack, 7, or a 2 hits the flop, yo pay me $100, and if none of them hit, i pay you $100."

You get 10 ranks, he only gets 3.

Are you taking the bet? Let's take a look at the most notorious "sucker bet" in poker:👇👇👇

@Justin0_5 He had AK, AQ probably
