2. wandag89 February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

   That hurtssss

3. wiseguy1989xx February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

   I think the director should have shown damon and kgb play 3 times in the movie not 2

   First of all i was commenting on another comment but since you’re asking i’ll give you a free lesson.. You have 2% chance to hit a flush preflop with an off suit hand and 5% with a suited hand, making the gained edge from the suitedness very marginal.. Second, if you hold an ace, three aces are remaining in the deck so the chance of your opponent holding one is only about 12% ((1/50*100)*3)*2.. you go figure who the dip shit is sir..

   first of all dip shit it was suited a9 and when you play heads up you have a 75% chance that no one else is holding that ace. So before you start to piss and moan about how much you know about poker you better figure a couple of things out first dipshit.

    If Matt Damon were replaced by Ziigmund Teddy KGB would totally be getting slowrolled by 99 here. “F U Russian Muppet”

    Why on earth would he have called holding ace eight? two pair with a mediocre kicker…

    ouch!

    Very simple. What flush draw calls the river shove-in by Damon? But in 1997, many players would make this call. The game has evolved so much that your common 16 yr old online playing .50-1.00 NL will fold — not so then

16. squirtdrinkr February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

    I disagree-KGB called the raise preflop-then flat calls his flop bet of $2000.00-he has to think to himself-what could he call my preflop raise with AND the flop bet of $2000.00 with-once he hits his full house though, he HAS to go broke-only mistake he made at that point was bringing his whole bankroll to the club…

17. gbmack2000 February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

    If you had that full house 9′s in real life, you’d be smart to go all in because most likely they have a flush, and it’s very unlikely they have AA.

    Go all in if the odds are with you 90%+.

    But in this case, it’s just a movie. In real life, damon woulda won.

    Fold the nuts in Omaha H/L

19. bcsolorza February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

    Very true unless teddy had a set of eights or Ace eight there is no way he makes that call. He lays down the king high flush. It may be true that you have the best hand 99 percent of the time but would you risk your roll for that 1 percent to not even maybe getting called. Risk isn’t worth reward with second nuts there I would of just called as well.

20. pokerhuis February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

    great movie, like it a lot, like watching my own life, brrrr.

21. 2redaces February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

    Not in this case, because by reraising all in, the only hand that’s going to call him is the one that has him beat. He’s getting no value by raising. A simple call is the better play.

22. sureshot1031 February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

    You never call that hand. He has the best hand there 99% of the time. Always get all of your money in with the best hand.

    He should have managed his bankroll.

    tsk tsk

23. JShankel February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

    Too true. Damon has to figure himself for the best hand (no reason to put Teddy on AA), but the all-in has little chance of getting called by a flush.

    The board is paired with an Ace and Damon is representing that a flush would have him beat.

    So, Teddy is supposed to think Damon is going all-in with, what, a 9?

24. 2redaces February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

    No, he shouldn’t have folded. He should have just called the $15K at the end. Then he’d still have $33K to play another day.

25. JShankel February 2nd, 2010 9:36 pm :

    Yeah, always fold the second nuts. Oh, wait, no that’s in Omaha.
