Check.
>>223197384it's a good check, you have nothing to protect against and allows someone else to bluff at it
>>223197384>mfw I'm in Matt Damon's place, but the turn and river ends up KK.
>>223197945Checking on the flop is acceptable (still not sure if it's the optimal play; I imagine a small bet would be smarter) but not raising against the other guy's bet on the turn was pure retardation and checking on the river was double pure retardation.
I always win poker against my friends because I'm luckier and get good hands more often Checkem
>>223198369That's the danger of slow playing. The 8 on the turn was a lucky card, nobody really had anything so I don't know how much action he was getting with a bet on any street.https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2x06tq
>was that dude...GAMBLING and taking a RISK when playing Poker and he won? >HE MUST BE CHEATING!I will never understand poker players
>>223198509Yes but they were mad that he was doing the opposite here
>>223198509Poker players are the most anal by the book people in the world. They will throw a fit if you don't play as you're "supposed" to.
>>223198546But how can you be a poker "pro" if you're just going to blindly follow a strict formula to play?
>>223198251three of a kind doesn't beat a full house, retard. seidel needs... wait i can't figure out what 1% hand he needs to come up in order to win.
>>223199021Its two kings like rick flair said
>>223199021It's two kings, anon. It'd mean he'd lose to a higher full house (kings over tens as opposed to Damon's tens over sixes)
>>223198546Last time I played I won a huge pot with pocket 5’s in the big blind. No one bet enough to chase me off the hand and I caught a 5 for a boat on the river. Some guy shoved trying to buy it and I snap called. He was livid, criticized me for staying in the hand so long with a weak 2 pair. He checked the flop and bet like 1/4 pot on the turn. I love poker but hate poker players
>>223199021running kings
>>223199135Literally what's the problem here? This is wrong but bluffing is pro?
>>223198561Poker GTO isn’t black and white. Take your table position in the hand plus the quality of your starting hand and optimal play will be like >small blind>QJ suited >this should be a flat call 65%, raise 35%, and always fold to a 3- or 4-bettor
>>223199166Idk man the guy was furious. Bought back in and kept running his mouth about how bad the play is at that casino. After a few minutes the dealer told him to shut up or leave
>>223199181The unwritten rule of poker is the guy who read a book about it has to win
>>223199201It was a fucking 1/3 table lol. Fag was acting like he was playing at Aria for tens of thousands
>>223199228Normies sometimes watch too much television, he probably yells at his tv watching football games too
Can you really tell that someone has a 7 instead of an 8 if someone moves their finger like they do in this movie?
>>223199181"Pro" (actually amateur) players despise "amateur" (normal) players because they haven't read the How to Win at Poker books that they have, so they don't play by the agreed-upon meta that they imagine every other player does, and might decide to play genuinely if they have a mediocre hand instead of folding on anything below a three of a kind or whatever autistic strategy they follow.
>>223199272“Tells” are almost entirely BS The only real tells you get are when someone calls too quickly or makes a suspiciously sized wager, like a ridiculous overbet on the river after a draw didn’t get there
>>223199300To play devils advocate, that is the worst part of low limit poker. Everyone chases everything. You get sucked out on constantly because some turd with 8-3 of hearts chased a flush draw with AK on the board
>>223199135>>223199181>>223199228Was that man's name by any chance Phil Hellmuth>>223199272The movie vastly over represents how important physical tells are in poker. They exist of course, but no one who makes money relies on them as a primary tool. "Reading" other players in poker 95% of the time consists of figuring out their ranges, betting patterns, and table position and approximating what hands they likely have based on that data. Speaking of which, the movie ALSO vastly over represents how accurately you can guess another player's hand. Even pros guess wrong more often than not, otherwise none of them would ever lose.But of course, the film is just meant for entertainment, so who gives a shit.
>>223199330Yeah, at the end of the day it sucks when you're playing the odds only to get fucked over by some idiot with a lucky draw, but that's just the game. If the odds aren't 100% in your favor, then there's always the element of chance.If you could guess what the other player would do with 100% accuracy then poker would be as dead as faro because the game would be solved.
>>223199272No lmaoTheyre all bullshitting, its all nonsense Reminder counting cards is banned in certain games because it actually works lmfao, nerds figured it out and the response was to throw a hissy fit like a little sissy and make them leaveCard games are for fags
>>223198509>I will never understand poker playersthey're more thinking "he didn't boopski on the derf?? haha what a noob!!! (jargon allows me to pretend this game is deep and that i am sophisticated!)"
>>223198561Pros have mastered the formula and can exploit it against the more rigid players. That's the difference.
>>223198400Shit, now someone needs three of a kind or you win the pot
>>223197384>did...did you just bluff....>IN POKER???>that is NOT optimal, guards take this cheating whore out of herewho was in the wrong?
>>223200010>both have nothing>but she had the winning nothingPoker players are retards
>>223197384peeeyaaaay theeeeaat meeeyaan hees meeeyonnneey
>>223200165kino
>>223200010did this kill the whole poker phenomenoni guess it was already on its way out
>>223198561>>223199965Basically pros are great at knowing when and how to bluff, that's what sets them apart from amateurs.
I went to a casino an got intimidated by the poker table, I ended up just playing that shitty version of poker where its you and the dealer and like 2 other people, I won 200 bucksShit experience overall
>>223200342Clearly not >>223200010
>>223200426That was a bluff so nonsensical to an amateur that he was right to call her out. The fact she let him have is a tell she was in fact cheating. Amateurs aren't comfortable going commando, unless they don't have the slightest clue.
>>223199052>>223199065>>223199164its still wrong because 2 aces would beat that
>>223200507>wtf you can’t just bluff when I’m not expecting it, that’s not fair
poker people were the type of people who would make up rules on the playground so they never lost
Formerly Chuck.
>>223200540Umm excuse me did you just gamble in poker? This can't be
>>223197384What's the right move? If he bets on flop everyone folds so he did OK there. Do you move in on the turn or what?
What was the most brutal loss you ever saw in Poker?
>>223200579It's the way he checked that made it obvious that he had something
>>223200548I Chuck
>still no biopic starring edward norton (called "The Neg")
>>223197384why would anyone gamble when it's been confirmed that remote viewing, precognition and telekinesis are all real things? Dumb asses
>>223200948Im listening...
>>223200548>If you're still working at Sneed's Feed and Seed I'll fuckin' kill ya
>>223200532no it’s less than one percent because either an ace was accounted for or because two aces are in hands already. trust the science
>>223197384I don't get it, what's wrong with checking?
>>223200010I never saw this whatever this is, but bluffing is not cheating in this game.
>>223200010>who was in the wrong?what was the last name of that guy again?
OH YOU LIED?!?
>>223200507Braseph, I've nonsensically bluffed and won but it's not cheating, you're just nonsensically salty.
>>223201851Nothing, but you will be disappointed when you won't get dubs.
>>223200948>his Dao of gambling can’t encompass the table and obfuscate such tricks Junior…
>>223197945>showing shit cards against higher>make large bet>everyone folds
>>223199857Why are non-poker players so pretentious like this?
>>223203263>Why are poker players so pretentious like this?

>>223204379insecurity
>>223199857xkcd go back
>>223199065Damon would have 10 over kings if 2 kings showed up.He'd still have the weaker full house, but it would be 10s over king.
>>223199426You can't cound cards in poker.And counting cards in blackjack isn't banned because it just barely nudges over 51% The worst a casino will do is comp you some shit and ask you to get off the table. You only get in trouble when you're using multiple people or outside information.
>>223198400I see your dubs and I raise you quads
How do you guys deal with punks that slow roll you at the table? I usually get up and “accidentally” bump into them and say my bad bro sarcastically.
>>223204865damn, thats hardcore
>>223199300>buddy drags me to poke>>223199300r night at a local bar>get bored and actively try to lose so i can fuck off to the bar to get drunk>get nine deuce off suit>one of the guyd at the table starts pushing the pot>keep checking him>pushes me all in >land a full house>we're both mad because im stuck at the table for another 20 minutes and hes out>he gets really butthurt and agressive>i just laugh in his face since the tournament was a 5 dollar buy in for bar cash >he keeps getting madder which makes me laugh harder>he gets thrown out when he tries to come over the table
>>223200604It is only obvious to the viewer since you can see their cards
>>223200044She called an all-in bet with jack high. She either has no fucking idea what she’s doing, or she knew what he had
>>223197384Damon isn't making any serious money in that hand unless the turn and river are hearts and mecs is being super reckless which he won't because Damon choosing to play that flop tells him he already has a decent handAnyone who has ever played has seen this scenario play out many many many times Betting would just confirm mecs thoughts early on and he would insta fold so you get nothing either way
>>223199300I had a similar situation playing Pokemon showdown>what the fuck? You put points into Niggerdon’s speed?? You fucking scrub. You’re garbage. Get off the game Meanwhile, doing what I did caught him off guard and made me win the match.
>>223201862Of course not but calling an all-in isn't a bluff.
>>223199426Card counting is trivially beaten by reshuffling more often then casinos used to back in the day
>>223199021hey anon, wanna play poker sometimes?
I never understood why people mock this. It's not a bad play even if you are one of those that argue that poker doesn't have objectively good/bad plays.
>>223206137You'll understand when you see a video of if.
>>223198561>blindly follow a strict formulaThey don't follow a a strict formula blindly. Some are looser player and some play tighter.The formula you speak of is basically the statistical foundation of the game which they do follow in general but they still add their own spin to it.
>>223200010She was stupid and lucky.He was just stupid.
>>223200010>YOU DIDN’T PLAY BY SCRIPT I MADE UP IN MY HEAD YOU CLEARLY CHEATED!!!professional poker players are the biggest pissbabiesthere’s a guy at my regular friday night game who takes it way too seriously and will start flipping out when someone raises “when they weren’t supposed to” and other retarded made-up crapyou made a bet, you lost. grow up
>>223200010Calling an all in bet is not bluffing, my dude.
>>223197384
>>223204843>cound
>>223206137
>>223206137ops
>>223209128alright I take back what I said
>>223209128what an awful actor and what a moronic post-river. an absolute donkey.
>>223209128This is an A-list hollywood actor who gets paid 10s of millions per movie and his poker face is :[
>>223197384I don’t know what that image is telling me. Are they playing go fish?
>>223204451seems i struck a nerve
>>223197384>go all in>they think im bluffing>winPoker is so easy when you get a good hand.
>>223209128Love the dramatic cuts to Affleck.
>>223199021>2 10s + 3 kings>3 of a kindnigga wat
>>223205089>or she knew what he hador she was bluffing because it's fake money to them and nothing actually matters but egothey're all playing with "friends"(super rich gamba addicts) money
>>223209999>or she was bluffingAgain, you literally can't bluff while calling someone betting all-in. its the last play of the hand, both players reveal their cards and whatever bluffing anyone did before hand is revealed for what it is.
Foldsville.
>>223197384A CHECK
>>223198509There's a really good Jon Bois video on YouTube about the mentality of people who play poker as a job. It's called Why Do I Do This For A Living. I highly recommend it
>>223200165kek
>>223210104you can definitely outbluff a bluffer going all-in
>>223210104He's not talking about whatever technical poker term you read in a book for bluffing. He's talking about the general definition of bluffing which means to fool your opponent.
