- [Voiceover] From
Las Vegas, Nevada, this is Poker Night in America. (upbeat music) - [Voiceover] Welcome to
Poker Night in America. I'm Chris Hanson,
he's Joe Stapleton, and we're headed back
to Vegas for more of our Twitch celebrity cash game. - And it is exciting times
because for the first time ever, Daniel Negreanu sits down
on Poker Night in America. And why not? It's been
at least five seconds, since he's been on TV. And just in time for Easter,
he and Antonio Esfandiari go to war in the battle
of the pastel shirts. - I knew when I wore this
shirt, that it was very likely that we were going to be
wearing the exact same color. - [Hanson] As we continue
here in Las Vegas, Antonio Esfandiari is
in the game for 50,000, but right now he's
only down 2,000, that must be like a
win at this point. - [Stapleton] Yeah, absolutely
I mean when you got that much on the table, being down
just 2,200 is going to be OK with him. I'm focused on this
guy in the blue shirt, Kid Poker starting with
a fresh stack of 20K. - [Hanson] Who put Antonio
and Kid Poker in those two t-shirts, next to each other? Is it Miami Vice on
Poker Night in America? Because it looks like
Crocket and Tubbs to me. - Alright, action is on
Dan O'Brien in seat one. - [Stapleton] Dan is the big
loser, so far in the game. In life, he's pretty cool. - [Hanson] He makes it 900
with ace-ten. - [Stapleton] So we have a
straddle, which is a blind raise from Maria Ho. A double straddle from
Antonio Esfandiari. Daniel Negreanu limped
in the double straddle, Dan O'Brien raising,
Sommerville's in, Esfandiari is in, back to
Daniel who's making it 10K with king-six suited! (crowd mumbling) - [???] That's a mix-up! - Mix it up! Right? - Did I put too much? - [???] Put your
cards side by side - Oh I thought I did. - You probably did and they
can't believe what they saw. (laughter) - I have ten more you can
have it, (bleep) it, let's go. - [Stapleton] Daniel kicking
things off, giving zero you-know-whats. - The two richest guys
are wearing pastel! (laughter) - What does that mean? You get
to a certain threshold and then you switch over? - You wear easter egg colors... - What? I don't give a (bleep)
what you do, you can do whatever you want. I don't care, read me, here,
what do I got? What do I got? He's always so
so good he knows what I have. Who cares? (laughter) There's no sense doing a poker
face anymore, he just knows. I just end up telling him. - [Stapleton] Daniel just makes
this move so infrequently with
air - I'll show you if you
fold at least one card. I'll show you one card if you
fold. - [Stapleton] What an
absolute wack-a-doo. - [O'Brien] But maybe two,
it's still a possibility. - Oh all in, OK, good luck! (laughter) Once or twice? - Who has a deuce-seven? - Whatever you want. Let's do twice for fun. I got two kings. - Wow. - I'm kidding! (laughter) - You have to
show at least one card. - Are we showing our cards? - Well at least one card. - [Stapleton] Uh, Chris, do you
hear that flushing sound? (flushing) One of these two
guys is about to drop 20 grand in the toilet. - [Hanson] Ace-queen, still
ahead. - Two times, though. - [Stapleton] They are running
it twice. You gotta win 'em both to scoop
the pot. (laughter) There's a six for Daniel. - I have a pair. - [Stapleton] He's very likely
to win this first run-out. And he does win it. - [Negreanu] Pair. Alright! I'm happy now! I don't
care what happens! - [Stapleton] So he's
free-rolling now. - [Hanson] A $41,000 pot. - The sickness has exploded. (laughter) - I have a suited hand! What do
you want me to do? - It was suited. Your trap! - Come on, man! Break even one
time, hit me a king or a six. (cheering) - [Stapleton] So gross! - [Grospellier] (unintelligble)
coming by for sure, now! - [Stapleton] What a luck box.
How does Daniel take that twice? - [Somerville] Ding-dong. It's
the AOT. A.O.T. might come in! I heard
him ringing at the door! - [Laak] I am barefoot now,
but with sandals on standby. - [Hanson] Remember how I
said Antonio is in for 50K, and only down 2,000,
thinking it probably felt pretty good? Guessing it doesn't
feel real good right now. - [Stapleton] Yeah, no now
he's down 22,000. - [Hanson] He's also probably
looking for the person that invited Daniel to the game! - [Stapleton] Look how sad
he is. You almost feel- No, I'm just
kidding I wouldn't feel bad for him. Not ever. So we had Elky straddling, Phil Laak raising,
six-deuce suited. Maria and Esfandiari
coming along for the ride. What is Esfandiari doing?
There's a seven-deuce rule, right? Where if you win
seven-deuce, everyone's gotta pay
two hundred bucks? - [Hanson] Yeah. So why
would you play seven-three? - [Stapleton] No idea! Other than the fact
that maybe A.O.T. A.K.A., Antonio on Tilt is back. - [Hanson] It's very tough
to tell the difference. - [Stapleton] Just look at the
hands from Phil and Antonio, these guys are nuts! and Elky has very quietly
made a straight on the turn. - [Hanson] Laak still
has the flush draw, and he hits it on the river! - [Stapleton] Wow, so Elky
gets there, Phil re-gets there and Elky is going to
lose something here. He's going to expect if
someone had a flush draw they would've bet it. - [Hanson] Everyone checked
around on the flop and the turn it's very unusual, so this
pot's relatively small. - [Stapleton] I think, Phil's
probably gotta just call here? - [Hanson] Or make it 3,375. That's another option! That's
what you meant to say. - [Stapleton] I mean I just feel
like he can really only get paid by better flushes? - [Esfandiari] Was there
an improved raise? - [Stapleton] I mean Laak is so
capable of bluff-raising here, It's really tough for Elky to
fold, maybe he will pay it off. - I can't even impress Phil
Hellmuth by my folding abilities so what's the point of folding
anymore? What's the point of folding
anymore? I can't get Phil's respect! (laughter) - [Esfandiari] I only
understood like, two words. (laughter) "Respect" and "folding." I'm
like how can everybody laugh if they don't know what
the hell he's saying? (laughter) - He's like you don't
speak Elky, right? It's like when is the river and
it's like getting raise it's like so sick because like
force is good but you know it's like he can have so many hands,
so... - Oh man, I'm making
it stick with whatever. - [Stapleton] I will say Phil's
made a pretty great read here, decided Elky's going to
have a straight lot, because that's about the only
worse hand that can call him. Come on Elky. Nice one Elkster! - [Negreanu] A-game, Elky's
trying to win. - [Somerville] I'll give you a
hundred dollars up 'til eight. - Was it a good fold, Phil? - [Negreanu] Whatever he says,
is like you can rule out, as being the truth. So then it doesn't leave
a lot of wiggle room, for him to respond. (laughing) - He says I'm a reverse
barometer. - It was good for someone,
right? - [Somerville] Nice bluff, Phil. Well-played.
- Very nice. - [Somerville] Phil Laak, I got
dozens of requests for us to have a Phil Laak-JCarver prop
betting show, since Antonio is too big-time
now. We could do it. I'm willing to take over
that responsibility. - [Esfandiari] What are you
talking about? - With your blessing! - I don't want to
not be involved. - Alright well, hey that
sounds even better then. Let's keep it all in one
big happy gambling family. - [Grospellier] Phil! - [Ho] Raise. - [Grospellier] Why? - [Dealer] Raise. 500 total. - [Laak] I read Raiser's Edge,
kid. - And that's why you lived,
I see you looking from the Raiser's Edge. (laughter) - Raise the river, it's like
the most painful spot... - Raise. - You have like five cards to
come, you know, you're curious. - [Stapleton] So now it's Maria
Ho with the seven-deuce. - [Hanson] And she's
running it into kings. - [Voiceover] 12.8 million
hands, do you do that? Do you ever limp with that
there? (laughter) - No, I haven't done that once! (laughter) - It's probably not a
profitable play, then. If in 12.8 million hands
you haven't done it. It's probably not going
to show a profit now! - Phil, he's never played a
game like this before, in those 13 million
hands, right? So you never know, maybe this is
the perfect scenario, Phil Laak. - [O'Brien] This could be the
time. - [Somerville] This could be the
time. - [Laak] I was pretty sure in
12.8 million hands it hadn't happened yet, I just
wanted confirmation ya know? I'm neural netting the
game, I wanna learn ya know? Antonio started 8 days ago,
i'm going to start today. I'm only 8 days behind. (chips clacking) (laughter) - Elky, I'm going to come
give you a hug! - Oh, sick! - I can't help myself what
am I supposed to do? I can't tell you what I have,
I can't tell you what I have, I just wanna give you
love, I feel bad ya know? - You feel bad
bluffing him right? - So when he says he feels
bad, that's more likely to mean he actually
had the absolute nuts Because this is just
the way his brain works. Whatever the lie is, he
like goes down that stream the whole way! He's dedicated. (inaudible) - When he said I feel bad,
that's a clue to like, oh, I had it, which
means he never had it. He's just an absolute liar! - I'm trying to add a
non-weighted gaming feel to, like, the frequency. - It's hard when you been
doing it so many years. - Right. Habits
are hard to kick. - It's not a lie.

like, keep the game slow, but it didn't - it didn't work out. - He really put on a good show
today. - Did he win? - But today was really... - He lost a little bit. He
played like three hands. - I think he won a little bit. He won, like, 3K I think. - No, it was like 1,700 up or
down. I think it was up. - He's going to hang out with
some big celebs in New York, but you know, he dropped
that, but he wouldn't drop the specifics. - [Negreanu] Well, you know,
Michael Jordan, Bill Clinton, they want to hang out with him. - Well actually, they
weren't that big because he didn't tell us the names. - [Negreanu] Right. They were definitely
B minus list. - [O'Brien] He was like, I
can't name names. OK, well then, - If they were premium A-list
we would have to hear it. - We surely would. (inaudible) - It was probably, like, the
fifth-string pitcher for the Yankees or something. - Brad wanted some advice
on what to do with Angie. You know, so... - [Stapleton] Phil Hellmuth did
not say he was going to give advice to Brad Pitt. He said he was going to be
hanging out at Richard Branson's spaceship
watching the Oscars with Deepak Chopra and the
ghost of Abraham Lincoln. - [O'Brien] We had this, like... - Kinda like, quick, really
hilarious conversation. in the main, like day five. When Neymar came to sweat,
like, Philippe for a little bit? And I walk over and Philippe
is talking to Hellmuth And Hellmuth goes, oh he
knows poker? He follows poker. And Philippe was like, yeah Oh then he probably
knows me. And you know, It's a reasonable statement,
and, they talk for a second, and I was like Philippe,
so, he follows poker, he probably knows me too. And Philippe is like, oh yeah
maybe, like clearly I'm joking. I'm like I don't even have
a chance to say I'm joking. Hellmuth just goes, no,
he's joking! I was like... (laughter) thanks, Phil. - I've heard that Neymar has
watched poker on Twitch, though So it's possible that any
one of us have been watched by Neymar. - So he's a, what's it
called? He's, I don't know, but I know he's like
the best. Right? I know he's a super-sick
soccer player. I'm actually, possibly going
to try to learn Portuguese, so I can help him
with some poker stuff. - [???] That's a lot to
learn isn't it? - It's a lot to learn but it's
not just him, there are other Portuguese-speaking
individuals (inaudible) (inaudible crosstalk) - Rass just learned it. Yeah, right, his wife is, uh... - Oh you don't speak English?
I'll just learn your language. No problem. - He did it in about a year. He
was fluent. - He's pretty fluent now. - That's amazing. - He just grinded it. They would
talk on, uh- - He's the whitest-speaking
Portuguese man on the planet. That's for sure. - That would be me if
I take over though. If I learn the Portuguese. - I don't know, Rass is up
there. He's pretty white. - [???] You're white! - [Negreanu] Actually, no
you're whiter. - Yeah, I gotta be a little
more pale. - [Negreanu] White bread, mac
and cheese, Turkey Burgers, (bleep) no Tan. - That's pure (bleep) right
there. 100%. - [Negreanu] It's like, ghost
material. - That's right. - [Stapleton] Maria's fired
three straights. Scott is really only beating
a bluff, and I'm not sure how many bluffs
Maria's got here. Ooh, he pays it off! - [Negreanu] Oh-ho I had
ace-nine. Do you believe me? - [Stapleton] Not now, Daniel! - I had ace-nine,
that's how good I am. That's my spirit radar,
what do you call that? - Psychic flow. - Psychic flow. Ace-nine,
all psychic flow. - [Stapleton] Psychic flow
sounds like Miss Cleo having her period. Straddle's on! - [Hanson] Didn't Debbie Harry
start the band "Psychic Flow?" I'm not - I could've swore she
was- - [Stapleton] Before my time. - [Hanson] Yeah. - [Stapleton] Phil's limping so
he can call a raise later if he has to. He-hey! The straddle's on
and the seven-deuce is on! Don't forget, you win a hand
with seven-deuce, everyone at the table's
gotta pay a 200 bucks! - [Ho] Daniel, what's
your psychic flow saying about (bleep) water? - It's sounding possible, but - I'm in consideration. Why,
you wanna drink, huh? - Just like, nothing
necessarily out of hand, just like a little, just to
wet our beak a bit. - Wet our beak? Let's get some wet flops
and wet our beaks. - No, that's, uh... That's Godfather. That's the best. I
love that reference. - You want to wet my beak? (laughter) - [O'Brien] Are you finished? - I'm holding back. Like,
oh there was seven things I was going to say, I'm like,
I better stop. - [Hanson] Checked around. - [Stapleton] Somebody get
Daniel an appletini. - [Hanson] Ace on the turn.
Laak picks up the royal flush draw on the turn. Come on Jason, you
know you want to bet. He's too smart to
bet here isn't he? - [Stapleton] I'm not so sure
about that, it's not a smartness thing by the way. I mean, when you have
absolutely nothing, your only real choice
is to rep everything. (chips clacking) Phil Laak is more likely
to vote Republican, than he is to fold here. - [Hanson] How about
Somerville folding now when it gets back to him? - [Stapleton] That's far more
likely. - [Hanson] OK. The decision is on Phil
Laak and he is folding! - [Stapleton] Wow, all
hail President Trump! - I'm getting abuse. They're all
laughing right now. That's why I hate this stuff
because then they abuse you, and they forum it
(unintelligible). Invite him to your game! - [Stapleton] So Jason,
did just call. Wow! Ok, I'm wrong about everything. - [Hanson] Oh boy! Eight on the river. Somerville
gives up and checks. - [Stapleton] I don't think
he's really given up, his only option
is to check-raise. I mean he did call with
a pair on the turn, I really don't know
what he's up to here. Antonio's just bet 6,400. And if check-raising was the
plan, I think all of the money has to go into the middle. I don't think he's calling and
hoping that a seven is good. So my guess is, it's all in
or fold for Jason Somerville. There's the fold! - [Hanson] And once again,
seven-deuce is, like, 0 for 10 tonight. - God, I thought Phil
Laak might do one of his stupid $30,000 raises there. - It would've worked too, right? - Of course it would've worked. - [Stapleton] We've gotta
take a quick break on Poker Night in America,
but when we get back more battle of the
pink and blue shirts. - You wanna see
the pastel battle! (jazzy music) - He's the weirdest
(bleep) guy in the world. (laughter) He's so weird. - [Hanson] Welcome back to
Poker Night in America, I'm Chris Hanson, Joe
"Stapes" Stapleton What does your mother
call you, Joseph? - [Stapleton] Stapes. - [Hanson] Stapes. You
guys are tight, huh? - [Ho] Daniel's doing,
experimenting with the limp call go all in blind. (laughter) Limp call raise (unintelligible)
all in blind post. - I know what I'm doing. (laughter) - You're earning, bro!
That's what you're doing. - I know what I'm
doing, I'm winning. - Carve it up, take the money. - I told you I was going to get
all of his money, but he wouldn't give it to me. - [Hanson] Randy Lew
and the small blind calls the $200 straddle. Somerville calls.
Maria Ho calls. - [Stapleton] Nice little
squeeze from Antonio. Squeezing those guys like a
month-old tube of toothpaste. - ♪All of me, wants all your
money. (laughter) All your money. - [Hanson] Top pair for Lew,
flush draw for Esfandiari. - [Stapleton] It's a perfect
board for him to keep betting. And you can't fold top
pair, Rand-ay! - [Hanson] Here comes the turn. And now Esfandiari
is open-ended. - [Stapleton] Even more outs
which means he can semi-bluff this even harder. (chips clacking) And I don't think the nine
is a bad enough card for Randy that he can fold. - [Hanson] No, he stays
around to see the river. - [Stapleton] Man, it's just
brick-brick for Antonio. But he is going for it anyway. I actually think given
Antonio's rep, that this is a crying call. It's just really hard to have a
hand here that you bet three streets for value, and it's
really easy to have a hand here that you bluff three
streets and missed. - [Hanson] Wow. - [Stapleton] Ohh, it's so
nitty. - [Hanson] Wow, what a play
from Antonio Esfandiari. - I thought it was coming.
Felt like it was coming. - She's good at it. - This is true. - She's the best. (laughter) - Daniel, 800, no? - OK, fine. What
do I do? Put eight? - 16? - [Stapleton] Look at all
of these straddles. - That would be balling
as (bleep), bro. (inaudible crosstalk) - People in the chat would go
crazy. - We're not that ballin'. - [Somerville] Scott Ballin'. - Hold on, I'll tell you if I
regret it right now, hold on. No. - [Negreanu] Alright, so I'm in
position. - [Laak] I just hope it turns
into an Antonio- the pastel battle. That's what I
want it to be. - [Negreanu] The pastel battle?! Well I'm not folding. - I know that's why I
hope everyone folds, and you guys, I want
to watch a battle. - [Negreanu] Pastel battle. - I knew when I wore this
shirt that it was very likely, that we were going to be
wearing the exact same color. Because he has like,
three shirts this color. - [Stapleton] There's no point
in raising these trash hands. Because the straddles are
going to defend pretty hard. - Here it comes,
we're getting closer to the pastel little battle. - [Stapleton] That is
not a trash hand. - [Hanson] That's a
good hand for Antonio. - [Somerville] It's basically
like a 400/800 blind vs. blind situation, yes. - [Stapleton] And he just
calls. And are you kidding me?! Daniel quadruple straddles
and wakes up with kings?! Antonio's never going to
believe him, either, especially after the king-six
shenanigans from before. - He hates being
out of position. (inaudible crosstalk) - Because when he's in
position, he's like spanking all day, all night. Out of
position, he's hating life. - [Laak] But he's sticky ya
know, he's in now. Stickiness. - [Hanson] Antonio calls, so
we're going to see the flop. - [Stapleton] We got eight grand
in the middle, already. - [Hanson] It may be
bad news for Antonio, who's got top pair. - [Stapleton] This could be the
worst thing that happened to Antonio since the
invention of the lunge. - [Hanson] Daniel bets 5,000. - You wanted to see the pastel
battle. - [Hanson] It's like two
Peeps playing poker. - [Grospellier] I'm gonna
collect my hug. - Going to what? - Collect my hug. - [Stapleton] What? Where is he
going? - [Negreanu] Your hoog?
- [O'Brien] His hug! - [Negreanu] Oh, hug. - [Stapleton] Phil Laak
is a great hugger. (inaudible) - [Somerville] Great moment. Probably most hugs in one
session. Shipped out. Phil Laak. Paid four hugs today. (sighing) - [Stapleton] Hey, wait. Elky
grunted when he got back? It's like he got more
than a hug. - [O'Brien] I very rarely see
tea with a spoon. - Well, I just wanted to get the
cachectin release going on. - Are you drinking something
or are you eating something? - It's green tea with lemon, seeped for nine and a half
minutes. - Nine and a half. That's pretty
long. - That's why you had to learn. - By the time it gets to
me, 30 seconds have passed and we're at the ideal
seeping time for optimal cachectin release. - [Stapleton] I think Phil's
gotta be on a lot more than cachectin. I've literally never heard
that word before, by the way. - [Hanson] He's done more
thinking about tea than I've done about my life decisions
in the past eight years. - OK, I'm in! - [Stapleton] Oh, and, oh right,
there's still poker! - [Hanson] What is happening?
Are they both all in? Oh my god, you guys
are the sickest. - Two times? - Two times. - Pair. - [Stapleton] They're both all
in, in an $83,000 pot. They're going to run it
twice, Daniel way ahead. - How do you have kings? That's
so sick. - I got this first
one, I'm assuming. - [Stapleton] Daniel wins
the first run out. And he is more than likely
going to win the second one. That is correct! Daniel doubles through
Antonio Esfandiari again! - [Hanson] Hey, Joe Stapleton, Welcome to Poker
Night in America, That is the biggest
hand, in Poker Night in America history. $83,000. - [Stapleton] I'm sure they
did it just for me. (laughter) - [Voiceover] Closed
captioning is brought to you as a public service by Poker Night in America. - [Hanson] Welcome to the
table Daniel Negreanu, that quick, up 63K, uh do
you want to tell Antonio the bad news? - [Stapleton] I'm pretty
sure he's well aware that he's down almost $60,000. - Daniel Negreanu starting
off his very first appearance on Poker Night in America,
really profitably. The biggest pot in
Poker Night history. - Next time, Antonio tries to
dig himself out of his hole, and since we're in a basement, I'm sure I can find
a shovel somewhere. - Well you can find us
online at pokernight.com where you can see our
unedited livestreams, and complete episodes. For Joe Stapleton, I'm Chris
Hanson. Check us out next
time, right here on Poker Night in America. - A.O.T.? - O.T.W. - All because I said, "Daniel,
800?" (laughter) And he goes, "OK." - [Somerville] That's what
happens when you put on the 800 straddle. You got an 80K pot! - I'm so glad I didn't
make it 1,600 there. - [Somerville] Kings in the 800
straddle, what a life. That's how your number
one, I guess. Right there. - [???] Nice hand. - [???] Thanks, bud.
