Who had it that the biggest hand in streamed poker history would be a triple-barrel bluff and a call down with the QQ overpair?

Talk about burying the lead. You forgot the part where Doug Polk (who claims he saw the hand) gave a ton of info about the hand preflop. Doug obviously isn't saying what he said pre-flop if Wesley had AA or KK, which Dwan clearly picked up on.Originally Posted by Dan Druff
Polk probably shouldn't have said anything, but he seems like one of those people that just says what is on his mind at any given moment without any real filter, and when you are around someone like that you have to just accept that is how it is going to be, and adjust accordingly.
the stream cut off after about 11.5 hours but this is the last chipcount update posted i think

Doug lost another 300k off stream.
Bad night.
And now Jungleman is threatening to punch Dwan, concerning their long-standing beef.
If I played big money cash games, the last person I’d want to see at the table is Durr. I’d simply give him no action without the nuts, and let the others players try take him on.the stream cut off after about 11.5 hours but this is the last chipcount update posted i think

To be fair i really do think it was Polk telling him he can see his cards cut that shit out. I have to do that with a guy i play with once a week and i ways tell him the first time next time im going to use the info against you, i mean wtf is doug supposed to do in that spot. He doesn't say anything and hes “scummy”
I think he owes Haralabob 7 figures and was sitting right next to him while Bob dropped half a million on first hand.
correct me if im wrong....
dwan sits with 1m and takes 1m to 3.2m.
so after taxes... he cleared like 1.3m profit for the night?

How do we find out what happened after stream ended?
The commentary is the height of narcissism. Imagine talking when every player is mic'ed? It's unbearable. Would pay extra to have a stream with no commentary...
Meh. Its your job to protect your own hand. But fair enough. I have played a lot of live poker in my life, and have warned people they are showing me their cards and played against people knowing their hand without saying anything, depending on various circumstances. And people have probably done the same to me without me being the wiser.

That being said, in hindsight Wesley should have just folded after Polk gave away that information. But it looks like he was trying to use the circumstances to his advantage, by portraying so much strength, and it backfired.
Yes. The "taxes" were paid to the Macau Triad gang
Yeah, my own policy is I wait until after the hand is over, then I let them know that they flashed their hand and I was able to see their cards. I tell them the first time, after that it's on them to protect their hand. Doug did nothing wrong, although I disagree with him timing wise in that I think he should have waited until after the hand. But ultimately you gotta protect your fucking hand, especially if you have oh I don't know, millions in chips in front of you

Wesley's arrogance showed in that hand and after big time, he's still patting himself on the back right now all over Twitter claiming he played the hand perfectly, is there no one in his circle of friends to tell him to just stop
He's the fish not Dwan lol as soon as Doug said he saw his hand Dwan knew exactly what was going on, he owned Wesley on that hand & Wes is a fool for not just checking it down after Doug said he saw his hand
