What bluff? Clearly a value raise they dont have much behind.
Trips are never folding to a raise of that size lol.
Yes a bluff in that spot with deep stacks would be really sick but thats not it there...
sir i don't think Galinec is triple barreling top pair with a kicker that doesn't even play (he is obv repping trips+)
and Galinec tank called with a boat
Why trueteller doesnt play anymore? I understand he probably can make more money elsewhere and can just make profit by staking winners, but would think that a guy like him would have loved the game and enjoyed just playing to become so good.
Do u think he plays big private games still or did he just quit the game for good?

Would be cool to see more of Stefan's hands.
This hand is vs same guy who called Stefan's 3 barrel bluff (With QQ on A-K high board) seems like Stefan's aggressive image worked as he get paid huge here

For a few years he was basically living in Bobby's room during the WSOP months (when I was there in 2019 he was playing every day). Haven't heard from him in a while but he probably still plays live. Maybe he made enough to quit and do something else, but he doesn't seem like the type who would just quit

You can tell from this interview a little less than a year ago that he was moving away from poker into trading. Clearly was enjoying poker less and less
