WATCH: Largest Pot In Live At The Bike! HistoryHigh-Stakes Cash Game Cooler Sees Quads Beat Full House For $439K |
|
Live at the Bike! recently ran a $100-$100-$200 cash game with a $200 big blind ante and a mandatory $400 under-the-gun straddle. Predictably, the game format created a lot of action.
It also happened to generate the largest pot in the history of the live-streamed cash game when two regulars on the show clashed over a pot worth $439,000.
The game featured World Poker Tour champion Art Papazyan, last year’s World Series of Poker main event champion John Cynn, high-stakes poker pro Dan Zack, and successful businessman and high-stakes poker player Bill Klein.
The infamous hand started out as a three-way pot between a player who goes by ‘Andy,’ Garrett Adelstein, and a player named ‘Jacky,’ but it quickly turned into a heads-up confrontation between Andy and Jacky.
Andy flopped top pair against Jacky’s middle set. Andy turned trips, which gave Jacky a full house and they committed $55,000 to the pot. On the river, Jacky made quads, which gave Andy top full house on a double-paired board. Andy got his last $164,000 into the middle and Jacky scooped the pot.
You can watch the entire hand below:
Poker pro Bart Hanson provided commentary for the game. A day after the game was over, Hanson tweeted that based on the turn action, Andy should be checking back the river since no better hands could call his bet.
After rewatching this hand many times, as crazy as it sounds, I think the play may be to check back this river. Jackie bet-3bet the turn over Andy's raise. So when Andy gets checked to 66 and bluffs arent calling + you open the betting up and have to bet-call vs probable queens https://t.co/DWpu350aun
