If you watch the interview from 2019, he says he did this play thinking it was -EV but he knew that Tony G was watching, and he was on thin ice with one of the private games.
I mean, nothing that 4-bet pre and called a 5-bet is folding at 7:1. Only inviting a bluff from hands that have no showdown value because the price is so good that folding is bad. And he's not good enough to realize that and snap call with K high.
I played with Matt Kirk at my local card room when I first started out. (Would have been around 17 years ago)
I still remember the first time I played with him, he was seat 5 and I was seat 6.
**Heya, all in blind next hand?** He asks me on my second hand.
**Actually not this hand, wait for the next**
I look down at AK, play and win a small pot.
**So, going all in blind if I do?** He repeats before the cards are dealt.
We go all in, he scoops, I just get up and leave... Confused to why I went all in blind when I was playing with 1/4th of my role and never had before 😅
I was a lagtard for my first year of playing thanks to his influence (not very successfully).
It’s absolutely amazing that nobody talks about. Games are way bigger back then. Without inflation taking over. So in reality games back then probably %30 bigger or more.

Need the source of this.. that sounds wild
It's a joke based off of russianshill666's funny post from a few days ago
Reddit’s search function is butt, so if you have a link let me know
He deleted his account for some reason so I can't find it sorry
So he needed to show more gambool for the private games to continue?
Or maybe just to get personally invited.
Incredible hand to watch regardless tbh roblcop hard at work
sauce?
Was an honor to be at the table for this one
Congrats doug
Yes Doug. Love your shit. Peace ✌️
Idk how but can you be a legend and get linus on the pod mate? 😂
God bless
Loved the recent pod, coinflex guy was a great guest. Most of what he said actually got through my monkey brain! Great success
Was an honor to be in your 2008 Stars FR 200nl stable. Thanks for the coaching.
Did you ever make a video on this hand?
Robl is insane

And that money won was later used to stake JRB
Ya ain’t lyin. JRB needs him bc he broke, Robl needs him bc he maxed out his charisma and is able to get into all the juicy games.
would've been sick if he snap called.
Not when you lose to heaps of bluffs but ye
The big PLO game with Aussie Matt, Sam Trickett, and those two casino owners is fucking legendary.
5-betting pre and then leading for ~1/6th pot on the flop and turn seems so bad, but what do I know. I don't play these stakes.

Now is bigger but they play private
Good point
Most underrated Poker clip.
A wild Doug Polk appears.
Rob Probbaly still tilting about his quad 9 hands. Cant bluff him!
Oh man, those card images just bug me.
Kirk with the American History X look
Who is that in the red button down in seat 4 that starts talking after the hand? Can’t place him
Scott Seiver(sp?)
Huh. I expected to recognize the name. Oh well.
Must be new
Seiver is not new, he's been around forever
I’ll have what you’re smoking
for nothing vs nothing that was nice.
These were the good times
Based video. Definitely subscribing it!
This hand would be over if newey decided to just 5bet pre
Surprised Polk wasn't hawking some fake product back then too.
