PokerStars Caribbean Adventure 2018 - Super High Roller ♠️ Episode 1 ♠️ PokerStars Global

[Music] is just you took me and my letter cover the small sky you [Music] [Music] you took me and mine [Music] hello everyone welcome to the Bahamas and the 2018 PokerStars Caribbean adventure stand by for some world-class no-limit hold'em to be played on this epic stage inside the imperial forum of the Atlantis Resort and Casino on Paradise Island yes everyone the PCA is back and it's bigger and better than ever before with a brand new poker arena I'm James Hartigan alongside me two of Canada's finest Gryphon Benja and Daniel Negreanu from Team Pro Daniel how excited are you that the PCA is back where it belongs on the poker calendar okay I'm actually even more excited after watching that intro video I just wanna play some poker I'm super excited the set is absolutely amazing it's one of the coolest sets I've ever seen looks like the actions heating up already with the super high roller right off the bat and a good field for that I'm still in that one and looking forward to winning the first one yes you're obviously gonna take your seat in the super high roller very soon Griffin what a great way to start our coverage with the 100k event yeah you know the PCA is such a flagship event for four players because it's the start of a new year I mean you kind of feel it off and off Daniel you know he's excited to to start as you're strong at the PCA 100k is such a huge premier event and who better to start it with at the table than Kevin Hart yes indeed and there is Kevin arriving now his first bullet didn't go very well yesterday but bullet two somewhat better culminating with some carnage on the very last hand of the day Allen has gone all in and call go go go go Oh Ryder versus the whiner go and you say never loses I was gonna spend another hundred grand I'll have to and the Academy Award goes to [Laughter] so just to recap what happened there Kevin Hart with Hussein bolt on his round sure you spotted him in the background there gets it in with King deuce against ace Queen gets extraordinarily lucky when a deuce hits the flop and then gives Rayna Kemper an extended rubdown and rain is still smiling at the end of it Daniel yeah I mean it's rare that somebody can repeatedly say to you you are so stupid and you're also laughing it's very different than when Phil Hellmuth parades you this is one where you laugh along with Kevin Daniel let's talk about your day one you had some incidents should we say along the way yeah it was a little bit of a rocky start so I make a king high flush against the ace high flush there goes bullet one but bullet two went much better I was able to get up to about 440 thousand and today 35 players will be sitting down for day two we have seen 12 reentry's in this event Griffin can you get into the mindset of reap buying in a 100k tournament I can't even imagine I know Daniel you must have put in you know upwards of 500 thousand in a single tournament before what what does that feel like um well yeah there's been times where you know when you make the decision beforehand you're like okay I'm gonna do this right when you're in it and then there's rebuy available and you're like wait a minute how much I'm in for now that's when you start to feel a little bit like wait a minute mate maybe I should have quit early but it's so difficult to do you know you're right there you can feel it you can taste it's a big price pool so most of these guys if they get busted they're gonna reenter well we're almost ready to go the feature table is headlined by Kevin Hart if we look at the full lineup on the main stage it's pretty stellar Griffin yeah and a great balance of really talented high stakes players and when you look at Christopher Kruk and Chris new touch in those guys have more of an online background representing that crop of players Eric Seidel one of the longest time legends in the game Byron Kamerman such a steady presence on the super high roller front and then Stefan Sodom higher you know only 23 big blinds but had one of the best years out of anyone in 2017 so a lot of great narratives surrounding the enigmatic Kevin Hart there Daniel I know you bet you've got to take your seat you've actually got to play on day two of the super high roller so thank you for spending some time with us at the desk before we get cards in the air but it is now time to get the action started on day two of the super high roller thank you guys hello my babies I have Joe Stapleton the players are getting ready to take their seats Daniel Negreanu is already in one nice one kid poker suffering from an ACL injury oh nice of you to join us Spicoli sit down gurgles well at least everyone at the feature table was on time everybody shut up Kevin gonna say something funny on huge pots that I win I do hump the table it's not personal just a form of celebration that I and partaking in that I been working really really well I'll tell you I keep it to two to three humps that's on a 30-second shot clock to there's two to three humps I just want you guys to know and not get irritated by it but it's gonna happen on pots of 20,000 anymore I can't wait for that as Chris current reference Joe this event is playing with a shot clock players have 30 seconds per decision and we kick off day 2 at level 9 of the super high roller with the blinds at three thousand six thousand with a 1,000 ante and the action will be on Chris Kruk he's a nice boy I like him to make me translate now Stefan sont homer nine deuce of Hearts knee faults because he reckon not gonna play the ten deuce what does Kevin Hart have ace four clubs thirteen thousand Kevin knows he's got AIDS for right dude has a bit of a history of mistreating his hands Eric Seidel has 74 in the big blind and defense Kevin Hart Eric Seidel what a pairing we going on a ride-along the flop it's ten nine eight up and down straight draw for Eric Seidel Kevin still ahead for now with ace high 17 continuation bet of 17,000 with authority Eric's up and down it's probably gonna take one off huh we'll take one it's not enough to hunt then wear your Humphrey on them 20 but I didn't feel Humphrey I now sit and then I pull back I'm gonna call that move of Casablanca because it was a Humphrey Bogart some 48 total entries in this 100k event generating a prize pool of four point seven million am in cash worth nearly a quarter of a million nearly 1.5 million up top the eventual champion and we're heading over to the secondary feature table where it's Daniel Negreanu vs. Makita Potter cough ski trip Jack's for Negreanu budget cough skis paid his king this is not likely Dan well for Makita going to the turn which is the five of spades Daniel now in 95 percent favorite and his clock is running well we know he would probably get paid out of that twenty five thousand quick call from budget Cobb ski River is the fiber clubs powering the board daniel improves to a full house and he bets enough to put budget Koski all in not a good spot to be in Nikita shuffling his time bank cards those are worth 30 seconds each they buy you additional thinking time if your pot runs down to zero bar to Kowski buys 30 seconds now this is obviously a tough decision but I think Daniels not gonna have too many Bluffs here especially that clubs also got their 10 seconds you probably to another 30 seconds here we go again does Emmie and I have to do 30 more seconds of analysis now cuz he's he's also losing the bigger kings I'm out how about the fact that this is a huge over back from the Garonne oh it's polarizing and buttercups he does have a bluff catcher he does but Daniel just doesn't Bluff that often in these spots he poison other-- 30 seconds ah defaults thank you just Daniel when his time bank cards - nope the chips are enough well start update leader Scott Seaver has slipped down into third place Justin Bonomo is currently tournament boss sitting on a stack of seven hundred and ninety seven thousand meanwhile we have lost Adrian Mateos one of the first players out today we still have Carey cats he actually bought in at the start of day two the student loan tanker and he plays poker with great interest and another amateur player Dan Shak who's finished second in the PCA super high roller twice in action here at the outer tables between Kevin Hobbs and Sam Greenwood on the river Sam bets 75,000 Kevin hops faults Sam tables a straight flush gotta show it Sam Greenwood you straight flush and son of a gun we're gonna stay out in the field because there is a big pot at one of the outer tables it's the Battle of the guys who are 2nd and 3rd and ships respectively Scott Seiver and even Luca Seaver all in with Queens against Eamon Lucas kings he van Luke is having himself a year a pot worth 1.2 million and Scott severs tournament life on the line King still holding on the flop and on the turn no Queen on the river Scott Seiver is eliminated didn't he start the day's chip leader should I not bring that up a ridiculous cooler which sees the guy who started the day as chip daddy bust out in 33rd place started chip daddy now he's like my actual daddy leaving and the boss is now even Luca he has a huge chip lead post up 1.4 million hello new daddy [Music] we are in the Bahamas for the PokerStars Caribbean adventure 2018 super high roller when we've already seen the surprising exit of start of day trip leader Scott Seiver and that's propelled Argentinian Pro even Lucca into a commanding chip lead to players who've won this event in previous years are in the top 10 bring Kenny with around a hundred big blinds and with a 130 big blinds stacked currently second on the leaderboard steve-o toir and he is just eliminated Makita bot zhukovskiy from our secondary feature table but I didn't even get a chance to sing if you like my body and you think I'll check rays come on then and call me down what a pissy Steve lifted the trophy here in the Bahamas like in 2015 just made it into port yesterday the winds were favorable in the sea was kind what was the accent meant to face traditional fishermen flight is still 3 6 maybe action the feature table has been folded to Kevin Hart he's got King Jack he is raised to 13,000 quick folds from everyone including David Peters who's just joined the table vic Pietrangelo defended his big blind - flops a set of force whoa go easy on him Nicky's just joking with ya wouldn't it move I'm checking it check out my arm honey they'll hear it you don't say another Spade on the turn Nick can't be loving is run out what did he do I need to hear it Nick deal with this Kevin can't love the run-out either check to the river Kevin catches a small piece top pair sometimes these amazing players struggle against amateurs especially in spots like this looks like he is gonna bet though 10,000 Kevin faults my order black coffee what what what did you just say did anybody what did you Kevin Hart really does bring out the best in people Mike Kevin Hart the movie star these guys I'm keV they know me we shake hands it's not a big deal that I'm around anymore it's a it's a cool thing it's a great environment and you know what I mean look it's laughs it's it's it's car playing and for me that's heavy on huge pots that I win I do hump the table this is a community game any and everybody can play it I wouldn't compare it to to the other things that I do that act this is a career because this is my career this is fun keeps me out of trouble that's why I like it champ is here there will be a moment in time where I'm holding up a poker trophy and that's gonna be enough for me to say I did it like a volcano maybe wait until they bet not let me win one they better not because if they do it's gonna be a different hit it's gonna be a different type of celebration our sound engineer is really pulling for Kevin he makes overtime whenever he has to turn down his levels we pay that good moments ago tournament chip leader even Lucca was moved to the secondary feature table he is already in action he has called Igor Kurganov all in ace King against Jack 10 Igor at risk and behind let's see where we would have gotten a friend just called Luca always seeming to have the best of it today the flop is eight high I would have stayed around ok he go looking for a jack or a 10 the age of diamonds doesn't help him Oh check check no five outs for you got that's not one of them and I bet huge okay I bust anyway and I go alone if you check then I lose anyway you give full Jack Hannah to the gun so we lose Kyrgyz from the super high roller his chips go to even Luca who boosts his chip leave with just twenty six players remaining and we're going to the outer tables and checking in on former PC a super high roller champ Bryn Kenny he's gone to the river in a hand against Daniel to Voris action is on Daniel he checks brent shoves and it is all in to call for Daniel it's all in to call for Daniel it's a pretty dry board Britain really could have anything DeForest Colts were in tables King Queens the top pair divorce had second pair again he is eliminated you don't mess with Brynn Kenny in the Bahamas this dude has won over five million dollars here and now he's got nine hundred and twenty-two thousand ships well with divorce busting we are going to balance the tables and that means we're going to lose Kevin Hart from the main stage there are no easy tables in this tournament but at least he was used to the people at that one they'll be joining Brynn Kenney and Justin Bonham OHS table meanwhile at our secondary feature table Daniel Negreanu is up against the reigning PCA super high roller champ Jason Koon Daniel's ahead with a pair of eights but jason has a ton of equity with a pair and a flush draw turn card sees Daniel improved to a set he's now a three-to-one favorite big turn for Daniel but Jason still got plenty of outs groaning that's 35,000 with straight and flush draws no shot jasonfults so we go to the river 124 K in the park it's the 7 of spades it's a straight for gutter ball Jason is the effective stack here with 200,000 behind Daniel bets half that 100,000 Jason Shops another hundred yep kind of painted himself into a corner here Daniel has to cool right he's priced in yeah but he probably knows he's never good here this is just never a bluff also it's annoying to have to fold a set remember this event plays with a shot clock 30 seconds per decision Daniel plays a time bank card it's a small raise relative to the size of the pot but not relative to Daniel stack wow he lays it down another good read by Daniel berries discipline fault Jason kun just below average now the dirty river hey Daniel stick the PO wait oh that was an ugly river beautiful turn yes turn set yeah okay come on call me paid off thank you like nope eat some of that at least it was vegan back to the main stage where it's man down Stefan sondheimer eliminated here an ace king into the pocket aces of crisp croc you got crud so 25 players remaining and let's check in on Kevin Hart at his new table he opened two 16,000 and now he has been re raised by Sam Greenwood always gotta try to pick on [Laughter] always got it ah to pick on the old cafe all right guess I gotta show that I'm a man that's up to the flop which is ace Jack six I don't think ever to call preflop with nothing see a thinker is he a full time Club that is a small bet turn card is the six of clubs pairing the board to flush draws out there now are you now gonna feed through the room I think whether Sam's got it or not he's gonna keep betting 70,000 and Kevin check race shops it's tough to bluff rich people countries ooh [Applause] I'm not a man stop picking on the multi-multi-millionaire well it looks like we've lost buyer encampment from the feature table with down to 24 and it's redraw time time for everyone to rack up and find out who the new nightmare on their left will be seems like a good time to take a look at the leaderboard Yvonne Lucca is still on top Kenny bottom oh and Negreanu all in the top ten not the top ten Kevin Hart however he's still getting plenty of attention let's kick things on over to James Emery oh ho now Kevin is a polarizing figure I think he's hilarious and I enjoy having a big personality at the table but so many people watching are just so angry that there is someone who they feel is distracting from the game yeah and understandably so this is $100,000 super high roller buy-in so it can get a little bit off-putting I think to hear somebody constantly talk especially when other people might have big decisions but I'm a fan of Kevin's I find him to be thoroughly entertaining and good for the game well I can tell you Maria that the redraw is done and Kevin is coming back to the main stage please stay with us it's the super high roller day too [Music] 24 remain in the 100k super high roller at the PokerStars Caribbean adventure 2018 and they have just redrawn four seats now position is everything in poker but there's one man who makes an impact wherever he sits when Kevin Hart sits down at the table it changed the mood entirely like obviously a high roller playing for millions of dollars people are very serious Kevin Hart does not allow any serious what did you just say what did you just he's a truly nice guy he's nice to the players he's nice to the dealers and he's funny as hell I just laugh along with him and he pretty much just puts on a show he just makes the game lively and I like that then I just then I catch the guy trying to steal because they think that I'm not a man a table tool could be a valuable weapon against some of the most seasoned pros outside of Daniel and maybe a couple of others these people that don't converse they don't talk there is no persona so when you're a person that can go and force people to do they're not comfortable then the tables turn and Kevin's table has typically turned so the cameras are facing directly at him we still in a baby want a feature table right now swipe up to watch me play live right now shout out to Poker Stars we going for it all first place is like 1.5 mil I need it I'm trying to get it swipe up watch me play I'm rubbing elbows with the best in the world and guess what my elbows are big that didn't make sense I'm sorry I did it again excited I'll taking a moment to meditate he is inside the top 10 right now even Lucas still the monster chip leader with a stack of 1.6 million 200 big blinds Chris Kruk and bring Kenny sit behind him while we've got the tournament loss on the main stage along with the reigning PC a super high roller champ Jason Koon plus two amateur players Kevin Hart and Frenchman jean-noel Darrell blinds right now four thousand eight thousand with a 1,000 ante okay I think Kevin's done a fair just take a second enjoy this no nothing okay go ahead you've an Luka with pocket aces I think he's gonna raise personally that's ace is in my opinion is one of the best hands you can do solid analysis that's why we pay him the big bucks 18,000 Luka opens to fold it around to Timothy Adams who's got ace queen really good about this tournament guys take you got like 400 somebody's about to get hurt and his name is Tim zero the-- yeah his clocks running down these shops I'm saying be careful that's all I'm saying you guys not now there's it all in what what is it do it again you do it again you hear me hey Lucas snap Cole's with ASUS that was a pretty big shove to about a bigger favor as you can be in this spot there's a 7% chance of survival for Timothy Adams the flop 955 500 Adams does need run a runner turn card as I'm drawing dad in the words of Al Portland I don't think so Tim even more chips for even Luka having dispatched Timothy Adams in 24th place easy to be it's like saying it's easy to be a comedian when you sell out a stadium Yvonne knows what he's doing well Luke has been on the cusp of a high-roller breakthrough for a number of years now with more than a dozen six bigger scores to his name he sits at number one on the argentinean all-time money list [Music] you know another one and but I mean I'm going board and a you thing when I see a smelly kid okay salient oh yeah cause I'm auditioning her right as he came a bit of water will travel along us with us see I'm a budget I'm a firm believer and poking the bear I found a bear that I'm poking I'm poking the bear estoy pidiendo el Oso Joe's been watching Dora David Peters first two actor are you laughing at tracksuit McGee Lucas out get the verbal clarification Jason kun man if the people in his hometown find out he says passed like a European he'll never be allowed back at the Waffle House I hit six of diamonds for Sam Green when he opens to 20,000 Kevin has ace King on the button and that's just a call interesting a lot of amateurs play this way of waiting for a safe flop Jill normal thrill has folded the small blind Eric Seidel gives up the big blind so heads up to the flop and the reason you want to re-raise with ace king as you can see you're not a gigantic favorite against to live cards you got to get them to fold the flop is king six fives the top pair for Kevin's second pair for Sam action is on Greenwood a continuation event of 16,000 Sam once again vetting smile into Kevin last time he followed to a shove just a call a turn card it's the for our hearts Sam picks up a gut shot straight draw Kevin still a four to one favorite since Sam cooked up some outs he might fire again 91,000 in the middle roughly one third pot 30k now Kevin's not the best player in the world but I don't think he'll fold here in Coles we go to the river which sees Kevin improves to top 2 and Sam just may give this up now he's checked Kevin going for value 70,000 I like it Greenwood Fox how you play you nervous bro Kevin just below the tournament average with a stack of 500 and 1000 and we're heading to one of the two outer tables where we have 3-way actions justin Bonomo and stephen chadwick have checked the flop it's now on carry cats he bets 26,000 on the mo calls hey what's up Alton carbon shed with balls heads up to the turn five of spades the board gets fluffier and straight yeah I think in general this is gonna be a better card for Justin than it is for Kerri check check river for free another Spade the three of that ilk here comes the Barnum Oh lead 80,000 into 115,000 sounds like this is gonna be a fault he's played a time bank card gets an additional 30 seconds decision time five six even if the turnin river didn't hit Justin he knows it's supposed to hit him more often than Kerry so he's gonna bat it and now he really knows it didn't hit Kerry I thought he was folding that he's still thinking this over ten seconds left on the clock that's a call Bonomo tables for five carry had a set of Asus the Bonomo tried to block the Rivercats found the hero call and is now up to four hundred and thirteen thousand steals gear doesn't it things not looking so good for the other businessman who bought in this morning Bill Perkins meets hit an ace or a King on the river he misses and he is out don't feel too bad for Bill well bail always makes the trip here to the Bahamas and no doubt he'll be back in 2019 when the PCA plays host to the Players Championship set to be the biggest 25k event in poker history with an extra 1 million dollars added to first place an eight million contributed to the prize pool you could win free entry to this event make a note of the word on your screen it's the first part of the password for a future Platinum pass free roll on PokerStars more details in the next episode [Applause] [Music] we are down to 20 in the super high roller at the PokerStars Caribbean adventure 2018 where Kevin Hart is looking for his first live tournament cash that's how you play a hair like a pro historically recreational players have had good results in this event Kerry cats finished fourth for more than half a million dollars back in 2013 and Dan Shak has been the runner-up twice cashing four combined two million and change but despite some big scores for the amateurs the trophy has always gone to a big name Prague [Music] it's somewhat comforting to me to know that I have the exact same number of super high roller trophies as Daniel Negreanu well the action is on Daniel at the secondary feature table Queen nine of clubs under the Gunn raises to 22,000 follow two Seth Davis he's out when Kenny Falls the small blind Dan Shak is in the big blind with aces people say aces are yummy re-raise to 85,000 Daniel loves hands like this Dan Shak however not known for getting out of line too often Daniel will get to play old future streets in position he calls the three bet and we go to the flop which could get Daniel into trouble it's come Queen high no this is not good Shaq is a three-to-one favorite with his over pair to the board 182 K in the pot Shak continuing and bet Singh baked by the looks of things that's 175,000 near enough full pot I'm gonna go ahead and say great instincts Daniel has top pair and lots of back doors which means this is at least going to the turn he makes the call the turn card it's a nine to pair for Daniel ish Shack now a four to one underdog not now stock market you got Queens got two pair and two pairs ahead Wow he called the flop to try to hit two pair and crack aces on the flop to be fair as things stand and checks going out and less he hits an ace eight or five on the river nope he's out in 20th and he's not happy Oh playing thank you probably should have taken that phone call but the preflop call is hanging up to 1.3 million now and another all-in over at the other table Raina Kemper racing with Ace King against Justin Bona Moe's pocket nines no a so King on the flop or turn or river Kemper out well he might have gone broke and $100,000 by and Turner but at least it wasn't to Kevin Hart campus elimination takes us down to 18 players and after delivering that ko just in Bonomo stack is up to eight hundred and nine thousand check out that average I didn't know Satan was in the field let's head back to the main feature table where the action has been folded to Kevin Hart 87 Souter tell you what Joe let's play this hand from Kevin's perspective this could be the closest you ever get to being a Hollywood superstar you son of all right I'll do it this race to 25,000 Shion Noelle Tyrell on the button oh man this is great I'm thinking of some amazing bits from my stand-up right now that's not what we meant focus on the Polka so Tyrell is folded Seidel has folded David Peters in the big blind Cole's all right I suggest we take a flop sigh ace eight three second pair for Kevin now some of the older blocks hold on Peter should check to us let's make sure that happens there it is okay some of the older books are gonna make you think you should always be c-betting but I actually like a check back here King on the turn that's a flush draw out there Peters checks a second time check Kevin checks behind I'll allow it and the King of Spades on the river headboard free showdown no 57k in 262k yeesh now I know it looks like he's bullying us I was almost a pot size bet but this is almost always value 57 Kevin Coles and David Peters tables King for four trips sick needle Peters so shoot Kevin see bet the flop oh I see wow what a jerk you are just smart enough to reserve comment until I've seen all the whole cards meanwhile its man down we've just lost nick Pietrangelo yes he was bad Nicky see at the Festa eliminates it by Chris Kruk he got crocked I love how you're trying to make that a thing oh it's a thing baby back to the feature table kevin has opened the action he's raised from the cutoff with ace-queen it's made at 25,000 to go and the action is on jean-noel Ferrell with Queen ten suited on the button bar he's in yeah there sweded Eric Seidel has ten nine suited in the small blind écoles which means even Luke is getting a great price in the big with 96 he's got by far the worst of it but yeah those are some pretty sweet parts comment everyone's in this part to go out for that fish Seidel King King Jack Kevin still has the best hand ace high Seidel checks his gut shot Luka checks and jean-noel throat checks is up and down straight draw well Tyrell picks up a flush draw to go with a straight draw Kevin still ahead is anyone gonna bet the answer is no nobody wants to bluff into three people a six on the river so Luca goes from worst to first how he's thinking about betting 15,000 into 106,000 wants that ace-high call old man no luck there Queen hi big boy he wasn't bluffing sir even Lucca consolidates his chip lead he has more than 2 million right now but we need head over to the secondary feature table where a former PC a super high roller champion is all in and behind Steve o2i with ace-queen against Bryn Kenny's pocket queens nothing flop Dwyer looking for an ace still needs to hit one of his three outs with one card to come it's a seven Oh twice out I must return to my vessel that's not the same accent as earlier different fisherman with steve-o two out in 17th place we are down to 16 players down to the last two tables it's time for another redraw look at them stacks brink any closing in on the million mark now I love the game of poker and I love Brin Kenny and Kevin's made it to the top 16 up with these pros oh come on please well here's how the remaining players stuck up even Luke has been chip leader for most of the day and currently has more than 2.2 million Daniel grown who sits comfortably in second bring Kenny currently fourth in chips while Kevin Hart is right to keep those fingers crossed he's in the bottom half of the leaderboard with fewer than 30 big blinds other shortage snacks include the reigning champ Jason Koon and Mustafa canít next time will Kevin Hart make it into the money who is it going to be somebody's gonna build me up let me double up let me just pick up whining no bombs there's no volunteers I'm gonna warn us my name is Kevin Hart which means I'm looking for a king of hearts I'm gonna be around I don't plan on going anywhere anytime soon [Music] you
