Windwalker on Hustler Casino Live?!?!?!?!?!? (15 Viewers)

Perhaps a different thread would be more appropriate for this discussion

I will say this is apples and oranges

The casino offers games designed to favor them mathematically. Thus there is an expectation of unfairness in your transactions with them

A poker game is expected to be a level playing field except for a players individual skill and the randomness of chance
Agreed. Sorry for going off point! Good luck Krish!

PS. Ivy did nothing wrong.
 
Jerry seems like a gigantic tool. Now I want him and Nick to fight with proceeds going to charity

Krish you have some big balls man to walk into this lineup.... I hope you run good buddy!

The stream has been hyping this up all week it's been pretty fun to watch
 
Is the strategy for the next game to play short?
Crazy to think of $100k as a short stack but I imagine some of these guys are going to be playing very deep.
Who is Lenard? Pro or another rec player/whale?
Is Mikki actually proficient at poker or a big baller gambler?
Will these other guys be playing with their own money or mostly from backers?
 
I think the pressure is on the top dawgs. They are expected to win. You are not supposed to beat them. That’s a heavy load on their shoulders. Think about that…

Keep playing your game like you have on the last couple streams and stay patient. You don’t need to win the most to be successful - look to walk away from that game at the end of the night with any profit and you’ve done well.

Rooting for you, Krish! Go get it!
 
If this were done in a poker game it would be a gross violation of the rules, even if every other player at the table shrugged and said "sure, we can indulge this guy's superstitions."

The rules of any gambling game involving cards implicitly include "No player shall have any method by which they can identify a face-down card". Ivey conned the dealer into creating a marked deck for Ivey's own use without the dealer knowing that's what he was doing. The fact that the dealer did the marking at Ivey's request rather than Ivey doing it himself changes nothing; it simply means that Ivey got away with it by exploiting the dealer's ignorance, not that it was fair.

If a man is willing to swindle a casino, what makes you think he won't try to swindle you? What clever, previously unknown tricks does he have to read your hole cards that you haven't yet thought to protect yourself against?

I basically agree with the sentiment here except I think there’s a pretty clear distinction between angling a casino and angling individuals. One is much lower.
 
@Windwalker When I watched the first streams you played in I wished I that I had the bankroll to play as I wanted to get BIG pot action from you and the other gamblers at the table. In the last 2 streams, I would NOT want your action. You're playing solid, picking spots, and getting rid of those marginal hands now. Your "gambler style" is gone and you're exercising patience and discipline. Keep playing your game and capitalize on the mistakes of others. Good luck!

Edit: Although there was that one marginal all in shove in the second to last that someone could have got you on...maybe u had a really good read but all in wasn't necessary IMO..
 
So I was watching some of last nights stream. The other Nick, not Nick V, claims that he’s Phil Ivey’s “sponsor” and that Phil just called him wasted and fell “off the wagon.” I didn’t know he didn’t drink, but what the hell kind of “sponsor” decides to announce that on a podcast?? Real nice. Starts at 2:59:15, if you want to see.
