so of course the best thing to do is hop in a 5/5 pop up of a pot limit Omaha No
Limit half-and-half game with Chris Moneymaker and some guy named Mike
Postle that everybody tells me to avoid
what's up guys jeff Boski here on this edition of Boski hands we'll be
breaking down a hand that occurred on the stones gambling hall livestream
it features such people as Vanessa Cade prominent twitch streamer and Mike Postle
who's claimed to be one of the biggest winners ever at the 1/3 limit especially
on the stones live stream so let's see what magic this guy does to get these
big winnings they actually kicks off with Vanessa
Cade raising it to $10 under the gun Mike pasal is under the gun plus one he
puts in the flat call with the Queen at five of hearts a great hand to see a
flop in early position Jenny calls with Queen seven of spades
Joel calls with the four three offsuit in the cutoff I would not advise on this
anyway folds the JD in the small blind with Queen ten of diamonds
definitely a reasonable just call being out of position but facing all this weak
action I think it's reasonable to raise it up and deny equity from a lot of
marginal hands so he makes it 75 to go Vanessa folds the ace 10 off under the
gun but my Postle the crusher in these games decides to put in the flat call
$75 to see a flop with Queen five of Hearts joel somehow also finds the call
with the 4-3 offsuit he does have position on the two players so that's
worth something the flop comes seven six three rainbow JD decides not to fire
with the Queen ten of diamonds even with the backdoor runner runner straight and
backdoor flush draw Mike does check his gutter and backdoor flush draw and Joel
figures he has the best hand para threes in a straight draw
might as well fire 160 dollars in the middle Mike pasal is not having any
of this after an awkward keyfob touch and a little hat grab he eventually puts
in the call 160 dollars with a gutshot in and over when a Jack of Diamonds hits
the turn it doesn't seem to be a card that would help either player yet Mike
looks deep into Joel's eyes and he gets that read he gets the read that he's
weak and it's time to pounce even though his line makes no sense
check call and then lead on the turn he does it anyway he's repping a jack or a
slow played set or two pair possibly and he leads out 310 u.s. dollars really
putting Joel in a tough spot with bottom pair and a bad straight draw
Joel this hat position the only hands he can really beat is a hand like 8 9 8 10
maybe a hand like 5 8 Joel didn't call with 4 3 off suit to fold with a pair
and a straight draw on the turn so he puts 310 dollars together hesitates and
eventually puts in the call he read Mike pasal correctly let's see what happens
on the river the river is an 8 it completes pretty much everything that
Mike Postle could be semi bluffing with 8 9 8 10 8 5 a lot of 2 pair combos now
get there and Mike quickly fires 515 dollars right into Joel's face if you
have bottom pair with a mystery draw on this spot that's fifth pair no kicker in
any reasonable game against any reasonable opponent I don't think you
should ever call here what hand could you ever be other than a hand like east
4 or ace 5 it just so happens that Mike pasal has the old Queen 5 and Joel reads
his soul Mike pasal got owned down the river Joel
picks up a $2,300 pot and gets the tiara of victory no idea why I just put on
tiara but he just picked up $1,000 playing the 4/3 offsuit I would not
advise this at home but he does get the moral victory of taking those sweet
pasal you can spot these assholes by watching
the way they bet like this guy he's bettin lavender chips at 500 each with
only one little problem he's always guessed right she wasn't so
fuckin greenie he'd have been tough for the spot now hit this guy reading the
dealer's whole card and signaling his buddy
at this table and that's just what these hustlers look for they cruise from
casino to casino looking for weak dealers the way Lions look for we can't
walk
turns out this guy and his fucking pals that we're not going to play that but I
wanted everybody to know that things were changed around here we had to make
an example of these pricks that the party was over I'm just curious
I saw you shuffling your checks with your right hand can you do that with
both hands no yeah the boys no sir can you do it with your left hand
I never try all right now you're gonna have to learn with your left hand
with blinds at $1 $3 with the $10 straddle action folds around to Vanessa
Cade who looks out at Ace King offsuit great hand to raise it up to $35
Jessica's in the cut off next to act with age 10 of diamonds oh you could
three bet this or call it like a mix of both in this spot she calls Mike parcels
in the small blind with Queen nine off yes one dollar invested easy fold but I
believe Mike thinks he has such a great post flop advantage that he can
disregard his hand strength and his bad position and just open all of his
opponents he puts in the call and another queen nine comes along for the
ride were four ways to a flop which is Jack three deuce two hearts action
checks around to Vanessa Cade who decides to check definitely reasonable
to put in a nicety bet here you got the runner runner nut flush draw two overs
and you can rep a scissor kings why not but the action does check through were
four ways to I turn which is the seven of hearts action checks to Vanessa again
as she sends his weakness she's got the nut flush blocker why not put in a bed
of $100 ace ten suited folds and Mike pasal go
into the tank and eventually decides to raise a pretty reasonable play he could
have been slow playing a maid flush a queen X of Hearts but he just has the
Queen of Hearts if you're gonna be bluffing in this spot I'd like a check
raised in the neighborhood of three hundred and fifty dollars but Mike
settles on two hundred and five dollars why would he choose such a small sizing
maybe it's to build the pot and continue with his bluff if an Ace King or heart
doesn't come Vanessa as a great price to draw to the nut flush so she puts in the
call for 105 more dollars the river is the eight of clubs and mike has a
decision to make should he continue with his bluff he could have been semi
bluffing the turn with a hand like nine ten with one heart so he could have
completed his hand here or he can just smell weakness and continue his story
with a bed of three hundred and twenty dollars
action over to Vanessa and she's not in a great spot it's gonna be somewhat
difficult to wrap a maid flush after checking the flop most people would bet
their flush draws as a semi bluff especially if you got a sex of hearts
here Vanessa thinks about it for a while and she's not buying what mike is
selling and she puts in a raise $800 to go I prefer a polarised bet
sizing here just shove all-in you got 1,100 whoo I
get cute with it action folds back to Mike he's got Queen hi
you can't possibly call this Kenny he thinks better of it he knows he's beat
even if it's by ace high and he makes a disciplined lay down mic possums Bluff
went wrong good read by Vanessa Cade and she takes it down
