WPH #454: $550,000 Pot In This HIGH STAKES Poker Grudge Match!



This high stakes poker heads up match between Matt Berkey and Nik Airball has taken the poker world by storm. There are not many feuds in the poker community that end up in a heads up match but these two have decided to put their money where their mouth is and are battling it out at The Resorts World Poker Room in Las Vegas.

After three days of play the heads up match is extremely close with Solve4Why’s Matt Berkey winning just over $30,000. The two are due to play for 100 hours in total and are now about 20% of the way through the match.

The terms for the heads up match are as follows:

– $200/$400 (400) at Resorts World in Las Vegas – $100,000 min, no max – 3 sessions each week with 6.5hrs per session – The match will last 100 hours – Either player can quit if they end up down more than $1,000,000 – $10,000 penalty for a missed session or quitting early

This poker hand was played at The Resorts World private poker room in Las Vegas. They are playing over $270,000 deep at $200/$400. Matt Berkey raises on the button to $1,000 with 66 and Nik Airball decides to 3bet to $5,000 with QJhh and Matt Berkey defends. The flop comes K63xcc and Airball continues his aggression with a 33% bet on the flop to which Berkey calls. The turn is the Ad and Airball decides to size up using a pot sized bet on the turn. This does not deter Berkey who decides to continue by calling. The river is a beautiful card for Airball as it comes the Ts which gives him the stone cold nuts. Airball decides to use an extremely polarizing bet size as he shoves for 5x pot! Berkey cannot find the fold and calls off his stack with his set and loses the $550,000 pot!

WPH #453: Folding Pocket KINGS Preflop?! [No Gamble, No Future!]



The action begins with Pollak setting the trap by just calling rather than raising. Cigliuti then decides to raise to $110 with pocket tens. When Eubank JR. looks down at pocket kings he decides to 3-bet to $420. Pollak then comes over the top with a 4-bet to $2,000, and Cigliuti folds. Whilst Eubank JR. is deciding on his next action Pollak decides to turn over both of his cards, revealing pocket aces. After a 40-second pause, Eubank JR. reveals his kings and decides to fold.

The players decide to rabbit hunt twice to see who would have won the hand had they managed to get all of the chips into the middle. On the first board, we see the 5d Th 2h Qs 2c, which is a blank for both players but Cigliuti would have won with pocket tens. On the second board, however, we see the 8s Kh 3c 3d 4c and Eubank JR. would have flopped a set of kings!

No Gamble, No Future began as a video podcast in January 2021 with Brent Hanks and Jeff Platt as the hosts. The show aired on Tuesdays across PokerGO’s YouTube and Facebook channels and they discussed poker, sports, and gambling. While the podcast was on break, No Gamble, No Future remained a popular PokerGO brand before it evolved into a cash game show to be aired on video streaming service PokerGO. The show features many prop bets such as winning with bluffs or cracking strong hands to encourage higher VPIPs and more action.

WPH #452: MEGA TILT After LOSING $312,900 To RAMPAGE Poker!



#pokerstrategy #hustlercasino #rampagepoker

Rampage Poker has recently been on a downswing but that all changed in this poker stream at the Hustler Casino Live as Rampage booked his biggest ever cash game win to date – over $500,000 in a single session!

Most of his profit came from the Hustler Casino Live regular Nik Airball. These two poker players battled in large pots all night with Rampage getting the best of Nik for most of them. Nik lost over $700,000 in that particular game. In this particular poker hand Nik cannot believe what Rampage Poker does and in less than 3 seconds too! It put him on complete mega tilt after this $312,900 pot and Nik Airball went on to lose over $750,000 at the poker table on the live stream.

In this poker hand I look at a crazy hero call that Rampage made against Nik. Rampage also known as Ethan Yau would have known that Nik was tilted at this point in the game which would have been a factor he considered when deciding to make a $110,000 call on the river.

3 MISTAKES To AVOID In Poker Tournaments! | A Little BRÈINFÚEL with Jonathan Little 3-20-2023



#pokerstrategy #pokertournaments

Making mistakes in poker tournaments can cost you your entire stack. The days are long and you must stay focused to play your best poker game!

In this live poker webinar I am going to teach you the 3 biggest mistakes that I often see poker players make and what you can do to avoid these in poker tournaments.

It is always important that you are aware of the effective stack depth in any given hand so that you can adjust your poker strategy accordingly. You can make big mistakes if you think your opponent is playing the same stack as you but then you find out that they are extremely short stacked and they have just check-raised all in on the flop! You might have decided to check this flop had you known that they did not have many chips.

Being well rested and aware that tournaments can be long is vitally important to making strong decisions throughout the day. One lapse in your judgment could cause a huge blunder and you could lose your entire stack and poker tournament life.

On this Poker Coaching channel we cover a weekly poker topic to help improve your poker strategy!

In order to take your poker game to the next level it is vitally important you learn all the nuances of the game.

Do you know what ranges of poker hands you should be playing from each position? When should you 3-bet, call or fold? When is the right time to make a hero call or a huge bluff? Do you know how to play preflop, flop, turn & river effectively and how should your poker strategy change depending on the street? What difference does it make if you are playing multi-way vs heads-up? #pokerstrategy #pokertournaments #pokermistakes As a professional poker player, I need to be able to consistently focus throughout the day. I used to drink a lot of coffee to help with focus, but it would inevitably lead to a crash. Then, I discovered BRÈINFÚEL.

WPH #451: How To Play MULTIWAY Perfectly With RAMPAGE Poker!



#wsop #pokerstrategy #rampagepoker

Jonathan is joined by popular poker vlogger – Rampage Poker! They discuss and analyze a poker hand that Rampage played during a $2,000 World Series Of Poker (WSOP) event.

This poker hand starts with Rampage opening from the hijack with KJo and he picks up two callers; the cut off and small blind. The effective stack depth is important in this hand as it is only about 30bb which generally means that a players stack off threshold should be lower as there is less playability than if the effective stack was 100bb.

The flop K32xss gives Rampage top pair and a backdoor flush draw. Jonathan discusses the merits of potentially using this hand to check/raise. He explains how he thinks that a lot of poker players overfold in multiway pots which causes him to bet at a higher frequency than Game Theory Optimal (GTO) might suggest.

However, in general you should be checking a lot in multiway pots with your marginal made hands as it is difficult to correctly identify all of your opponent’s ranges. For this reason you should also be mixing in some value hands to check-raise with. Jonathan also discusses which specific poker hands might want to check-raise as a semi-bluff.

Remember that when opponents call a small check raise their range will be wider than if they call a bigger check raise. Use this extra information to help you narrow their range and proceed accordingly. As the effective stack becomes shallower, your bet and raise sizes should be smaller so that you can work in more bluffs that can fold to a raise or 3-bet.

Jonathan explains that hands you should find to hero call are ones that beat all of the draws and when those draws do not come in on the turn. It is important to have a poker hand that does not block the draws that your opponent could have.

On this Poker Coaching channel we cover a weekly poker topic to help improve your poker strategy!

In order to take your poker game to the next level it is vitally important you learn all the nuances of the game.

Do you know what ranges of poker hands you should be playing from each position? When should you 3-bet, call or fold? When is the right time to make a hero call or a huge bluff? Do you know how to play preflop, flop, turn & river effectively and how should your poker strategy change depending on the street?

WPH #450: Set OVER Set – MAX PAIN For Poker Bunny!



#pokerbunny #hustlercasino

Two of the poker regulars from the Max Pain Monday show find themselves in a set over set situation for a rather sizable $16,000 pot!

When you are in position, closing the action and getting good odds to set mine with a deep effective stack you should be calling to try and hit!

The 765cxc flop is a miserable one for overpairs as it is extremely co-ordinated and it favors the caller’s range more than the 3-bettors. Jonathan discusses the raise size that Poker Bunny decides to use on the flop. He talks about why on such co-ordinated boards it is better to use a larger raise size to reduce the stack to pot ratio which gives you more chance of getting all of the money in by the river.

Jonathan discusses the factors you should consider when deciding to go for thin value on the river. What hands can your opponent have that you beat that will still call?

This poker hand took place during the Max Pain Monday show on the Hustler Casino Live Stream in California! In this $10/$20/$40 cash game, DJ Washburn raises to $120 from the hijack with Qd9s. Poker Bunny calls from the cutoff with 5h5d. Sia The Bot wakes up with pocket kings in the small blind and decides to 3-bet to $700. This makes DJ Washburn folds but Poker Bunny decides to go set hunting and calls, which bloats the pot to $1,600 as they head to the flop.

The flop comes 7c 6h 5c which gives Poker Bunny bottom set on an extremely co-ordinated board. Sia The Bot continuation bets for $400. Poker Bunny decides not to slow play and raises to $1,000 which Sia The Bot calls, bringing the pot to $3,600.

The turn is the Kc which now gives Sia The Bot top set. She now decides to slow down and opts for a check. Poker Bunny still believes she has the best hand decides to bet $1,300 and Sia The Bot calls, bringing the total pot to $6,200.

The river is 2h, and Sia The Bot checks again. Poker Bunny decides to move all-in for $4,950. Sia The Bot gives it some thought. Although she has an extremely strong hand, it is not the nuts which makes her think that Poker Bunny could have her beat. In the end, Sia The Bot does make the call and Poker Bunny reveals her poker hand as if she has the winner and is shocked to see the chips be pushed in Sia The Bot’s direction!

This poker hand showcases the importance of careful hand reading, aggressive play, and strong decision-making in cash games. Don’t forget to practice these skills in your own games, and good luck at the poker tables!

WPH #449: One Of The RAREST Moves In POKER! [$207,500 For 1st!]



#pokerstrategy #highstakespoker #pokergo

PokerCoaching coach Aram Zobian manages to successfully pull off the very rare double check raise whilst he is heads up for a PokerGo Cup title!

Jonathan discusses the importance of having a balanced check-raising range. You should be finding good semi-bluffs to use as check-raises and not only your strong value hands.

Punsri’s hand becomes a pure bluff catcher after Zobian decides to fire in the double check raise on the turn. Punsri really has to decide whether he thinks Zobian is going to get out of line in this particular spot before deciding to continue. This was the 3rd PokerGo Cup series. It took place from January 11th – 20th 2023, in the PokerGO Studio at ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. There were 8 events on the schedule, all were No-Limit Hold’em. Buy-ins ranged from $10,000 to $50,000.

Aram Zobian is an American professional poker player with just over $3,200,000 in live earnings. The bulk of that came in the 2018 WSOP Main Event when he finished 6th for $1,800,000 (John Cynn was the champion that year).

Punnat Punsri is a Thai poker player. He is a regular on the PokerGO Tour and Triton series. Punsri has $4,800,000 in live tournament earnings with his biggest live cash coming in September 2022 at a Triton $100,000 event in Cyprus. He won the event for $2,600,000.

In the 2023 PokerGO Cup Event #2 $10K NLHE tournament at the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas, Punsri and Zobian were in a heads-up battle to win the title. Punsri had As7h, and Zobian held 8c6d. With 46BB and 81BB respectively, Punsri called from the button and Zobian checked. They saw a flop of 8s 8h 7d. After Zobian checked, Punsri bet 80,000, to which Zobian’s reply was a raise to 225,000. Punsri called. The turn brought a 2s. Zobian checked one more and Punsri took the bait as he bet 320,000. Zobian then pulls off the unthinkable and attempts the double check-raise as he bumps it up to 910,000. A confused Punsri decides to call. The river was a 2d, and Zobian empties the clip and puts Punsri to the test for his poker tournament life. Punsri made the call, but lost the hand. Zobian was then crowned the champion and earnt $207,500!
