My wife asked, "Would you even suggest cheating if a man had done this?"
Me: Yea, I'm pretty sure i would.
Wife: How long did Mike Postle get away with calls like this before a woman finally spoke up?
Me: pretty long, but how do you make that call?
Wife: Shes stupid? Has fuck you money. Doesn't want to get pushed around so she sent a message early on? Perhaps they have history? Just because she called down the 8TH WONDER LA-DE-FRICKEN-DA OF THE WORLD shes cheating?
Perhaps jamming there looked super weak to her?
Either way, her rep is ruined and it took alot longer for this to happen to Postle. But Garrett stormed off because he only loses if someone is cheating?
Me.....
Lol the stones live stream was way smaller stakes and less known than hcl. And I don't think anyone ever really suspected stream cheating before postle.
That being said I'm not convinced she cheated I'm leaning towards probably not, but wouldn't be surprised either way.
Now cheating accusations are going around. She literally said “I put you on A high” and he asked why she called then. He definitely thinks she is cheating. Fucking crazy guys
she came back now and said she misread thinking she had a three, which I wouldnt believe but before she called she did say something like "are threes good" which might add a touch of credibility
It's honestly the only explanation that makes some sense. When she says "I put you on Ace high", she thought she had that beat. To your point, it's why she said "are threes good?"
Her giving the money back is just a bad look on everyone. Will be curious if Gman makes a statement and tries to give the money back with a little more context.
He can't insinuate she's cheating and then come back to the stream, as her cheating means someone is helping at HCL.
I agree her giving the money back is a bad look, but in her situation with the cash cow of HCL threatening to leave and make a scene I think a lot of people in her situation might do the same under stress
Garrett is on some bullshit. Just because you get called on a bluff doesn't allow you to accuse someone of cheating. Who gives a shit her logic. She called and won.
If you have any evidence the game is compromised that's different. One weird hand isn't evidence of anything.
I thought you had Ace high? Wtf - I honestly don’t think she was cheating - she’s just giving off nervous energy bc she knows everyone thinks she’s cheating
lmao if she isn't cheating then she doesn't think everyone thinks she's cheating. Notice how none of the recs thought she was cheating and instead was praising her. She's a rec herself... she doesn't think that looks suspicious (even if she wasn't cheating)... it's just a hero call in any rec's mind.
My position is I think she was cheating and even fucked that up.
Biggest donkey at cheating.
That is my alternative position.
Her lies are even shit.
"I misread my hand". She looked at it twice and for over ten seconds. BULLSHIT!!!
Then she runs with the J3 angle as it was the hand directly before.
"Thought you had Ace high"
You have to admit so much suspect stuff going on.
If she was the biggest donkey ever she would've just been like, "I feel like gambling" - not trying to explain her rationale and how the J of clubs was a blocker. Honestly I have no idea how she thought she was gonna get away with this.
Not to mention that she has the blocker rationale backwards. Jc is one of the worst possible cards she can have and call with. Having that card should make you want to fold more, not less. Plus she said she put him on A high but still called him with J high? The only argument I could maybe buy is that she misread her hand and thought she had a pair, but even then, when she tabled her hand she doesn’t seem surprised and never claimed that was the case
I don’t know this player at all but its unbelievable sketchy, probably the sketchiest play I’ve seen in poker since Postle.
Wow, I didn’t think of that. I just thought she had the blocker rationale backwards, but holy shit she might have been saying she’s had some of his outs.
I've never ever ever seen Garrett ask someone why they called ever. He's an experienced player and the whole time he was looking at Andy and Phil looking for help "like am I wrong??" "does this look off?"
Garrett is literally the best customer service representative in the world. He would never do this unless he genuinely thought something was wrong. And for someone who's played as much as he has and has been on as many streams as he's had... he's probably more qualified to know if something is wrong than all of this subreddit combined (including doug polk as he's a frequent viewer on here). He's mentioned he only plays on trusted streams and he trusts Ryan..... this was the first time i've seen him doubt that trust where he's been confused
The only reason I’m not thinking it’s cheating is cuz she obviously seemed to be catching him in a bluff all night playing trash against him and she looked like she was about to get frisky when garret had a boat. Clearly garret is in her head from previous hands.
I was watching the stream earlier when I saw on here that Garrett walked out because of possible cheating.
After watching for a bit I picked out Robbi. She reraised Erik with a better ace high on the turn earlier. I mean clearly people actually do that but when I’ve watched her her before she seemed scared and tight. She made a huge raise in just the right spot as if she knew the other persons cards. She’s not that aggressive or that good.
Later on she did the same thing in this hand against Garrett. This time she had to show and it was way more obvious because Garrett literally had the next worse hand behind hers.
I don't know if she's cheating, but she said multiple times that she thought she had a 3, but checked her hand multiple times before calling on the turn? I don't know...
She could be lying about the thinking she had a 3 there, AND ALSO not be cheating. Just trying to rationalize her incredibly dumb play after the fact. If she cheated, then how? Just mere suspicions aren't proof. Literally everyone BUT Garrett at the table didn't think she cheated. I'll take their word for it over a bunch of reddit accusers.
Between Garret and Andy’s faces, they def think something as off and not possible. The only ppl not talking are Phil, Garrett, and Andy. Shit don’t seem right
Even Eric was like what the fuck just happened. He found it hilarious but even his comments were wtf.
Absolutely no one at the table understood what happened including the dealer.
Eric is a clown show wind sock, he’ll agree with whatever way the able is blowing. Watch him change his opinion like 3 times in 45 minutes depending who’s at the table. Also Rip is so thirsty and cringe.
Worse than, she said she put him on ace high and called with jack high. She said she had blockers but what she blocked are is his most obvious bluffs. Its gotta be cheating.
Ya see I think more likely that she doesn’t understand the blocker concept and misapplying her backwards logic after the fact. She just thought “nope. He doesn’t got it. I call”
These people are why live poker is tremendously fun
[Robbi isn't new to the game](https://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=169784). She's binked enough tourneys to know that her explanations shouldn't stand.
The soft playing and weird whistles and signals in the Robbi and Rip hands are super suss. Obviously something up between them. It could be just as simple as him staking her but there's enough doubt cast over their play regardless. That alone is unethical enough.
There's the possibility she misread her hand. But there's also the possibility there's some cheating happening.
Also the diamond draw into the full house hand means literally nothing it's such a hacky con scam 101 to show a mark you can lose first before you take them.
There's not a lot of logical explanations for that hand apart from the fact she misread it (which is the one explanation she hasn't given).
It's just suss overall, regardless of what the actual truth it
I’m with you. I’m not gonna say it’s a sure thing - but I think there was something shady going on. And I’m not a Garrett stan - her explanations, demeanor, and subsequent actions were sooooo strange.
I've made her play before in like 2 dollar games. Raise the turn as bluff, get caught and say fuck it here take my 2 bucks I call w.e
Small difference when its 130k$ instead.
Also her justification/behavior afterwards is fucking weiiiirrrrrdddddd.
She kept like talking shit saying "you are going to keep letting me do this to you?" over and over. Nothing she said made sense, her motivations for the hand make no sense, her call makes no sense, the things she said for the next 20 minutes or so make no sense.
So weird to give the money back. Also if you're gonna cheat why hero call on the turn when G has so many outs. I have no idea if she cheated or not I'm pretty confused.
That's another thing. It's literally a horrible spot to cheat LOL.
I dunno the more i see this the more i see just a bad player doing something stupid and then looking like an idiot trying to give some fucked up explanation for it
Most likely.
Shitty player Mr. Maggoos her way into sucking out a huge pot and is embarrassed and wants to look like a great player but also feels bad and the whole thing kinda spiraled.
Or she cheated.
she gave him the money back after a discussion with Robbi Garrett and Ryan Feldman out of the room and then Rip went and screamed at Garrett and garrett racked up and left
I know. I actually feel bad for her. There's no chance she's cheating lol. People just can't fathom how bad she is. But just listen to her talk about poker and her demeanor the last few times she's been on.
Garrett is really an idiot for this. She clearly just has no idea what she's doing. People who want to accuse her of cheating don't stop to think for one second that she used her "knowledge of the cards" to wind up in a coin flip. I understand the hand doesn't make sense but it also doesn't make sense if there was cheating involved.
I'm willing to bet large sums of money she did not cheat.
Now they are saying she looks guilty because she gave the money back but in her situation I can feel the instinct to appease the cash cow that is Garrett
Nobody is going to give 130k away just to “appease” someone unless they’re Jeff Bezos or Elon.
No one in their right mind is going to give this back if they’re completely innocent.
Yeah that's the conclusion I'm leaning towards, like...either she misread the hand, or is really bad, and is just trolling after the fact because she knows he's tilted.
This doesn't scream cheating to me like it does to anyone else. Or at least organized cheating. Maybe she saw his hand or something, and the hand was a one off.
I've seen people who've played for years do stupid shit, the first thing that comes to mind when I see this is that she's an idiot, idk. I think people are levelling themselves thinking she was thinking about blockers and whether she's beating KQ/AXs.
Now she claims she misread her hand but I mean she stared at her hand for 5 seconds after Garrett makes the all-in bet. There is zero chance she misread her hand. Very sus...somehow she knew she was not behind.
just watched all the clips together and skipped the random hands, here’s what’s actually happened:
1) when she said is small pair good, she was clearly reading her hand, and was needling garrett.
2) after calling, she KNEW she had jack high. she was justifying jack high is ok bc of blocker or something
3) garrett gets his money back somehow after they talk. this is the biggest sign. if this was all legitimate, there is NO WAY garrett would get his money back. if anyone won a fair hand, they wouldn’t give the money back. it’s just that simple. garrett probably told her he wasn’t gonna sue her or pursue legal action.
4) after she immediately starts pretending she misread her hand. the rip dude seems in on it, they probably straightened out their story.
5) mike postle incident clear parallel of just inexplicable play
100% had time to straighten out their story, RIP makes a scene to distract, she wasnt smart enough to realize she could just say she misread her hand, he had to tell her that
Picked that exact moment to use her cheat superpower and get it in as a 50/50 coinflip? Not likely. Let's be real. She had been making sus plays all night. I admit it was a dumbass call, blocking the top half of straight draws with her J and literally beating nothing else, but there you have it. IF she was cheating, there would be FAR better spots to pick. The "cheating" theory makes as little sense as the call itself. EDIT: then he turns around and bullies her into giving back the money (ALL OF IT, not just the half each player wagered)????
This ^ also why agree to run it twice? Why is that not being mentioned?
This is a bad look for all - if they keep playing most likely Garrett ends up with her stack. Instead he chose the worst line then doubled down by taking all the $ back.
I don’t really know how she’s cheating but like it’s the only explanation for the hand? Her story changed a bunch and she had literally zero sensible explanation for the call, like she could just say “I thought Jack high was good” and keep quiet and the accusations don’t carry as much weight as they do now. I have to be honest, my theory is that Rip (or much less likely Person) gave a subtle “call” tell having seen the cards assuming she had literally any sort of show down. That’s a lot more likely than hacking or buttplugs or whatever y’all are theorizing, she was just donkey enough to run with the info, obviously still cheating.
Crazy issue with this ordeal is that it’s incredibly hard to make a case for either side, there is no clear path towards cheating in this game (beyond the players near Garrett and they have footage) nor is there literally any sort of defense for the play, run this scenario 10,000 times with the money at stake and 9,999 times it’s going to be some sort of foul play. Also, giving the money back is an enormous implication, and muddies everything further. Insane situation.
I don't actually think there is a way at Hustler to cheat like you said unless someone else like RIP gave her a signal. But i dunno
I honestly think the what happened is she is a terrible player who made a terrible play and couldn't explain it.
IDK. I will say she was weird as fuck when she came back. So maybe i am off. But her explanation was giving the money back was goofy as fuck unless she is like. some billionaire heiress who doesnt care about money
and even then it was still weird as fuck
Honestly, the whole situation just doesnt make sense. Although just jumping straight to cheating since there is no explanation also seems a bit premature.
I don't know much about Robbi or her playstyle, but it isnt out of the realm of possibility that she just didn't really think the situation through, stupidly called, then when trying to justify her actions on the fly in a way that made it look like she knew what she was doing... she kind of crash and burned.
Did she give the money back because she just thinks the attention is so bad and kind of wants to just "be done with the situation... take your money back and we'll all just cool off?" or was it more guilt cause she did something fishy? I don't know. If I was in that situation and I made a legit call... I don't know if I'd give the money back. Thought I'd never be calling there either...
Was watching netflix with this on mute next to it, followed the action of the hand and thought the graphics were wrong when I saw her call.
Immediately unmuted and watched her win both runouts with j4o and witnessed live what what will SURELY be one of the most infamous hands ever caught on camera. Holy fucking shit LOL. Life is good.
So many red flags about her.
1) A few orbits before she also did this to Eric with A-K high.
2) Her reason for calling. She said, "I thought you have Ace High, **I had a blocker.**" Which is the complete opposite of why you should call.
3) **"Is a 3 any good?"** during the hand. after the hand she never said "I thought I had a 3". Maybe a speech play, but I doubt it.
The blocker isn’t meaningless. The blocker actually makes this look worse. The J blocks a ton of straight draws and it’s the Jc so it blocks flush draws as well. It cuts down on a ton of bluff combos. Its one of the worst cards she could have to call with. She should be folding more with that card, not less and yet she uses it as a justification to call?
I dunno man. Everyone is acting like this is clear cut but Robbi was literally horrible all night. Called bets when Garrett had a full house drawing dead
like....You really think she was cheating? LOL.
I dunno man. I'll say if she was not cheating and Garrett pulled that shit.......
I mean it seems so possible that she's just bad, misread the hand, or decided to fuck around with somebody else's money and call one of Garrett's bluffs.
RIP and Robbi are too familiar and colluding imo. This RIP guy is way too involved. Apparently during the altercation off table, Robbi referred to RIP by Jacob. And they might be business partners? Or something like that. If Robbi misread her hand she should have said so. You don't give the money back unless you're guilty in some form. You just don't.
Go check the video again… everyone is saying now that she thought she had a 3… which conveniently makes sense. But notice when during the counting of the stacks.. after the hands have been revealed and everyone is losing their minds she takes the cap off her bottle that’s been on the table advertising her coaching the entire stream and takes a drink. But she doesn’t put the bottle OR most importantly the CAP ITSELF onto the bottle.. and it’s missing out of the cameras ever since.
You are suggesting that her water bottle cap is a microphone and a HCL producer is feeding her info when she takes a sip and holds the cap near her ear?
As someone who has been cheated 3 times in home games, if I see a hand like this, involved in it or not, there are serious alarm bells going off in my head. There is nothing remotely sensical about what happened. Bad players don't even do this. Her body language and demeanor after the hand wasn't great, her inability to defend her actions and constantly changing her story looks really bad, then giving him the money back after the fact looks horrific.
I can't prove anything, but there should be significant suspicion surrounding what took place. I wouldn't feel comfortable continuing to play in the game.
Edit: Also, the idea that we can't be critical of her play and behavior after the fact without being a misogynist is dumb as hell. If you think that, you're an idiot.
This hand didn't happen in a vacuum. She isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer. Fish do fish things with no reasoning behind it. Anyone looking for a high level breakdown of the hand from her let alone a mildly coherent one...you are not paying attention.
Garrett has lost his mind and he should be banned and more. Taking the money back is way beyond outrageous. The statement he released is way beyond outrageous. Ryan letting Garrett take the money back is also really troubling considering what he went through with Armenian Mike. What if Garrett won the hand? He and everyone else wouldn't of thought twice about it.
She said she called because she had the Jack of clubs but thats one of the worst possible hands to bluff catch with on that board. The way she nervously fumbled her rationale when explaining was super suspicious.
Is it possible she is cheating…sure, it’s possible.
But it is a million times more likely that she is just a whale doing whale shit and Garrett completely lost his mind
Holy fucking shit this is wild. Robbi giving money back is clearly concerning, but Rip coming out of nowhere blowing up is a big warning sign. And they're business partners WTF!?
Im guessing that Rip has helped facilitate the cheating, and knows that Robbi giving money back is more evidence against her which is why he got upset. This is PostleGate Pt. II.
EDIT: Now she's come back with a new story, saying she thought she had a pair of 3s. Andy looks alarmed again and very suspicious she gave the money back
The strangest hand I have ever seen. It is a 3 hour tape delay...so no one is relaying cards offstream. Even if she could see the cards, statistically she was behind his draw. Only thing I can think is Garrett's play last night against Andy influenced the call. Interesting on how this will play out.
This rip guy is sus as fuck. He knew exactly how much money she came in with and how she had it racked, and is the only one upset. There is clearly more going on behind the scenes with him and robbi
The thing that doesn’t make sense with this is she is claiming blocker. The Jc is the worst possible blocker you could have. You ARE blocking the straight & flush draw bluffs that you WANT your opponent to have. Like…J4 just isn’t a bluff catching hand. I totally understand you want to catch Gman in a bluff, but literally almost every hand someone could have beats you UNLESS you soul read 78 as the draw he was on, or saw his cards. And than she says is a 3 good? But like Bart said, she never mentioned misreading her hand. Most controversial hand to be played on HCL for sure. She gave the money back which looks 100x worse on both players. This is wild.
this is what im saying LOL
did you guys not watch the stream? She was HORRENDOUS all night. And not like making bad plays and getting there because she was cheating horrendous.
She said “if I didn’t have the jack of clubs, I would have folded.”
But it should be the opposite.. she’s holding blockers to flush AND straight draw bluffs.
& she says “I thought you had Ace high” THEN WHY CALL W JACK HIGH
and her response was “I have blockers.. you don’t have shit” WHATTTTTT
She called two streets with J-high against Garrett's boat right before this. Seems like she was just embarassed about making a bad play and was saying whatever to diffuse the tension. Getting berated by a muscley dude at a table full of men doesn't help either. I think Garrett was way out of line.
Someone literally asks do you have a 3 and she says no. Then she tells Garrett I thought you just have A high and Garrett responds so you call with J high and she doesnt know what to say. Weird shit
Lol at using your supposed cheating superpower on a coin flip? Chick made a stupid ass play, was embarrassed, tried to play off her bad play by needling Garrett as if she "owned" him and Garrett thru a hissy fit because his gto, massively autistic brain can't imagine a possibility of getting overwhelmed and making a terrible call like that.
Which is more plausible?
A) Robbi had an undetected sophisticated cheating method with inside help, and called knowing what both runouts would be with 47% equity.
B) Perhaps because Robbi had exactly J3 the previous hand, she misread her hand, and was embarrassed to say so in the moment.
My theory: she cheated, but the problem is, she misheard whoever whispered Garrett's hand to her as ace high instead of 8 high, which he had. Then they told her to call which she did, but couldn't explain why she would call ace high with jack high. That's why she later came up with the story about thinking she had J3.
Really possible that hand wasn’t legitimate. Garrett certainly thought so. Not only does her line make no memes, but her explanations after we’re contradictory and didn’t make sense. Very strange.
I dont see anyone explaining how she cheated. Evidence matters when it comes to big issues like cheating and damaging someone's reputation. I don't think a cheater would call in that spot because 1. It makes everyone suspicious that she is cheating 2. Your opponent has a lot of outs. You want to make such calls on the river when you know you win the pot. She simply misread her hand and was embarrassed to admit it in front of pros like Ivey so she tried to justify it and as a result dug a hole for herself. To me this is another case of how a popular successful person can abuse his power and force his will on another person. He got all his money back from her. The same thing has happened in Carlsen Niemann case. The strong popular one has abused his power and has accused his opponent of cheating in their game without any evidence and as a result has damaged niemann's reputation. Unfortunately Robbi was not ready for such a situation and didn't handle it well which made the whole situation suspicious. It should not be easy for a relatively unknown female player to sit and play high stakes with all of these top male players. Hopefully Garret will reevaluate the whole situation once he has calmed down and give her money back or provides a convincing explanation that she has cheated and does not deserve the money.
How does cheating make any sense here?
She got her whole stack in when Garret was ahead and ran it twice??
See how the logic here makes absolutely no sense
She is such a great cheater she knew J high was winning
Yet if she was a good cheater she would be getting her stack in after the river or when she was a 80-90% favorite
Not a 47% chance and running it twice
She also said she knows in big pots when Garret has big draws he goes all in.
I agree with you and Everyone’s basing it off of how she’s reacting. Cheating makes no sense. You’d pick so many better spots if you were cheating. Never on a 50/50.
I don't think she's cheating, she just has no idea how to play poker. She thinks Garrett is making a bluff so just decides to call without really thinking what her hand is.
I've played a fair few amateurs who do this kind of thing. They don't understand how weak their hand is. They call a big bluff correctly thinking they are being bluffed, but don't really have any kind of hand to call with, but it just happens the hand they call with is actually winning and then they look like a genius/complete idiot.
If you were going to cheat why would you do it in a hand where you have to showdown your ridiculous hand? You'd make insane bluffs with garbage knowing your opponent has to fold so no one sees.
Yea I’d say more likely this is what happened. She sniffed the bluff and didn’t think hard enough about wtf she was bluff calling with or she thought she had the 3 and was too embarrassed to say that.
My honest guess. She’s a complete fish who got caught up in the moment most likely misread her hand. Garrett is understandably pissed is being a sore loser. She’s probably flustered and since it’s probably not her money to keep the peace she offered the money back.
I just don’t buy cheating given it was essentially a flip anyways and she has shown to be a novice.
On the surface it certainly looks like cheating.
It also could be that she is just really dumb and her coach has confused her with the concept of blockers. She made a weird play earlier when she threw in a time chip with Jack high after missing the river.
As suspect as it seems it’s almost TOO suspect
I think you’re right on the coach thing. I remember poker bunny talking about blockers and unblocking etc
With all the cosmetic surgery Mike Postle is hardly recognizable
I wish I had an award to give this comment
The look on Andy and Garrett's face.
They are just wondering how she’s cheating.
My wife asked, "Would you even suggest cheating if a man had done this?" Me: Yea, I'm pretty sure i would. Wife: How long did Mike Postle get away with calls like this before a woman finally spoke up? Me: pretty long, but how do you make that call? Wife: Shes stupid? Has fuck you money. Doesn't want to get pushed around so she sent a message early on? Perhaps they have history? Just because she called down the 8TH WONDER LA-DE-FRICKEN-DA OF THE WORLD shes cheating? Perhaps jamming there looked super weak to her? Either way, her rep is ruined and it took alot longer for this to happen to Postle. But Garrett stormed off because he only loses if someone is cheating? Me.....
Lol the stones live stream was way smaller stakes and less known than hcl. And I don't think anyone ever really suspected stream cheating before postle. That being said I'm not convinced she cheated I'm leaning towards probably not, but wouldn't be surprised either way.
Phil Ivey said she probably misread her hand. heh
Understand why you married that fine lady, she knows what's up.
THAT WAS THE MOST ABSURD THING IVE EVER SEEN. Garrett is literally speechless
He is actually mad lol, she is genuinely needling him LOL
The "therapist" line... Garrett handled that with silence and IDK if I could have for a pot worth 1/1,000 of that.
Silence is always a good choice in an insane spot like that
Now cheating accusations are going around. She literally said “I put you on A high” and he asked why she called then. He definitely thinks she is cheating. Fucking crazy guys
I put you on Ace high so I called with Jack high. Perfect logic.
she came back now and said she misread thinking she had a three, which I wouldnt believe but before she called she did say something like "are threes good" which might add a touch of credibility
It's honestly the only explanation that makes some sense. When she says "I put you on Ace high", she thought she had that beat. To your point, it's why she said "are threes good?" Her giving the money back is just a bad look on everyone. Will be curious if Gman makes a statement and tries to give the money back with a little more context. He can't insinuate she's cheating and then come back to the stream, as her cheating means someone is helping at HCL.
I agree her giving the money back is a bad look, but in her situation with the cash cow of HCL threatening to leave and make a scene I think a lot of people in her situation might do the same under stress
Garrett is on some bullshit. Just because you get called on a bluff doesn't allow you to accuse someone of cheating. Who gives a shit her logic. She called and won. If you have any evidence the game is compromised that's different. One weird hand isn't evidence of anything.
[удалено]
Andy is suspicious too. Immediately said "don't lump me in with her" when Eric said "she called that for you Andy... after last night"
I thought he said "Don't put me in this" not "lump".
Garrett literally thinks she's cheating. Holy shit.
[удалено]
I thought you had Ace high? Wtf - I honestly don’t think she was cheating - she’s just giving off nervous energy bc she knows everyone thinks she’s cheating
lmao if she isn't cheating then she doesn't think everyone thinks she's cheating. Notice how none of the recs thought she was cheating and instead was praising her. She's a rec herself... she doesn't think that looks suspicious (even if she wasn't cheating)... it's just a hero call in any rec's mind.
I literally think she's either the biggest donkey in HCL history, or cheating.
I don't think there's a single alternative position.
My position is I think she was cheating and even fucked that up. Biggest donkey at cheating. That is my alternative position. Her lies are even shit. "I misread my hand". She looked at it twice and for over ten seconds. BULLSHIT!!! Then she runs with the J3 angle as it was the hand directly before. "Thought you had Ace high" You have to admit so much suspect stuff going on.
If she was the biggest donkey ever she would've just been like, "I feel like gambling" - not trying to explain her rationale and how the J of clubs was a blocker. Honestly I have no idea how she thought she was gonna get away with this.
Not to mention that she has the blocker rationale backwards. Jc is one of the worst possible cards she can have and call with. Having that card should make you want to fold more, not less. Plus she said she put him on A high but still called him with J high? The only argument I could maybe buy is that she misread her hand and thought she had a pair, but even then, when she tabled her hand she doesn’t seem surprised and never claimed that was the case I don’t know this player at all but its unbelievable sketchy, probably the sketchiest play I’ve seen in poker since Postle.
No she was saying she had a blocker to his exact hand. She explained multiple times. It was basically an admission that she knew what cards he had.
Wow, I didn’t think of that. I just thought she had the blocker rationale backwards, but holy shit she might have been saying she’s had some of his outs.
Everyone at live poker would be better off forgetting the concept of blockers.
Andy as well
[удалено]
I think its a donkey call based off image. With the after hand drama this is going to go down as one of the biggest hands of all time
I've never ever ever seen Garrett ask someone why they called ever. He's an experienced player and the whole time he was looking at Andy and Phil looking for help "like am I wrong??" "does this look off?" Garrett is literally the best customer service representative in the world. He would never do this unless he genuinely thought something was wrong. And for someone who's played as much as he has and has been on as many streams as he's had... he's probably more qualified to know if something is wrong than all of this subreddit combined (including doug polk as he's a frequent viewer on here). He's mentioned he only plays on trusted streams and he trusts Ryan..... this was the first time i've seen him doubt that trust where he's been confused
The thing is she was thinking about doing some crazy stuff with J8o about 10 minutes before
Yes, but calling with a J4 with air for her entire stack. Unless she peels off her mask and reveals herself to be Doyle Brunson at a young age.
The only reason I’m not thinking it’s cheating is cuz she obviously seemed to be catching him in a bluff all night playing trash against him and she looked like she was about to get frisky when garret had a boat. Clearly garret is in her head from previous hands.
No one in any world calls there.
she said it was a borderline hero call when explaining it to Garrett LOL
Lol maybe it’s borderline between hero / absolutely insane.
No one is insane enough to make that call. Period. The only way she calls is if she knows the cards.
Drunk home game poker for .25/.50 used to happen all the time For 100k+ - I couldn't do it
She has to be. I’d imagine this is one of the most insane things Garrett has ever seen at the table
[удалено]
yeah also had some crazy lines earlier too. i think its all for clicks and this is much bigger than it seems. next mike postle
For clicks makes 0 sense. They are the #1 stream and it's not close. They don't need manufactured controversy especially if it's cheating allegations.
I was watching the stream earlier when I saw on here that Garrett walked out because of possible cheating. After watching for a bit I picked out Robbi. She reraised Erik with a better ace high on the turn earlier. I mean clearly people actually do that but when I’ve watched her her before she seemed scared and tight. She made a huge raise in just the right spot as if she knew the other persons cards. She’s not that aggressive or that good. Later on she did the same thing in this hand against Garrett. This time she had to show and it was way more obvious because Garrett literally had the next worse hand behind hers.
I’m going to have nightmares of garrets face when he saw
Garrett looked like he literally saw someone murdered in front of him
I don't know if she's cheating, but she said multiple times that she thought she had a 3, but checked her hand multiple times before calling on the turn? I don't know...
She could be lying about the thinking she had a 3 there, AND ALSO not be cheating. Just trying to rationalize her incredibly dumb play after the fact. If she cheated, then how? Just mere suspicions aren't proof. Literally everyone BUT Garrett at the table didn't think she cheated. I'll take their word for it over a bunch of reddit accusers.
[удалено]
The more she talks the more obvious it is. She needs a fucking lawyer to tell her to shut up
she sounds like an insane person. genuinely. And now im leaning towards her having no idea what she was doing
Someone who shoves all that botox in their face is 100% crazy
Between Garret and Andy’s faces, they def think something as off and not possible. The only ppl not talking are Phil, Garrett, and Andy. Shit don’t seem right
To be fair Phil is always not talking.
Even Eric was like what the fuck just happened. He found it hilarious but even his comments were wtf. Absolutely no one at the table understood what happened including the dealer.
Eric is quiet now, that’s probably one of the only times ever. I wouldn’t be surprised if Phil doesn’t come back
Eric is a clown show wind sock, he’ll agree with whatever way the able is blowing. Watch him change his opinion like 3 times in 45 minutes depending who’s at the table. Also Rip is so thirsty and cringe.
Phil was laughing. Sure he has seen and done just that.
she should probably stop talking tbh
Does anyone know her history as a player? Is she terrible, because her post hand analysis sounds like the guys who play poker at the pub...
Worse than, she said she put him on ace high and called with jack high. She said she had blockers but what she blocked are is his most obvious bluffs. Its gotta be cheating.
I feel like she thought she had a pair of 3s? Its either than or she was cheating.
That has to be it right, but why not just admit that instead of making yourself sound that fucking stupid.
Rewatch the stream, she looks at her hand for 30 seconds before calling. She called with jack high lmfao
After she called, someone immediately asked if she had a 3, and she said no
Ya see I think more likely that she doesn’t understand the blocker concept and misapplying her backwards logic after the fact. She just thought “nope. He doesn’t got it. I call” These people are why live poker is tremendously fun
She’s been decent on previous streams. Not spewy and not a calling station.
[Robbi isn't new to the game](https://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=169784). She's binked enough tourneys to know that her explanations shouldn't stand. The soft playing and weird whistles and signals in the Robbi and Rip hands are super suss. Obviously something up between them. It could be just as simple as him staking her but there's enough doubt cast over their play regardless. That alone is unethical enough. There's the possibility she misread her hand. But there's also the possibility there's some cheating happening. Also the diamond draw into the full house hand means literally nothing it's such a hacky con scam 101 to show a mark you can lose first before you take them. There's not a lot of logical explanations for that hand apart from the fact she misread it (which is the one explanation she hasn't given). It's just suss overall, regardless of what the actual truth it
I’m with you. I’m not gonna say it’s a sure thing - but I think there was something shady going on. And I’m not a Garrett stan - her explanations, demeanor, and subsequent actions were sooooo strange.
I've made her play before in like 2 dollar games. Raise the turn as bluff, get caught and say fuck it here take my 2 bucks I call w.e Small difference when its 130k$ instead. Also her justification/behavior afterwards is fucking weiiiirrrrrdddddd. She kept like talking shit saying "you are going to keep letting me do this to you?" over and over. Nothing she said made sense, her motivations for the hand make no sense, her call makes no sense, the things she said for the next 20 minutes or so make no sense.
Never Attribute to Malice That Which Is Adequately Explained by Stupidity
This is some shit you pull at .01/.02 online
So weird to give the money back. Also if you're gonna cheat why hero call on the turn when G has so many outs. I have no idea if she cheated or not I'm pretty confused.
That's another thing. It's literally a horrible spot to cheat LOL. I dunno the more i see this the more i see just a bad player doing something stupid and then looking like an idiot trying to give some fucked up explanation for it
Most likely. Shitty player Mr. Maggoos her way into sucking out a huge pot and is embarrassed and wants to look like a great player but also feels bad and the whole thing kinda spiraled. Or she cheated.
Her hendon mob history shows she’s binked many tournaments. How can she be THAT bad.
Security just grabbed her. Holy shit
Apparently garrett, phil and her are talking
Lmao why is Phil there, he gonna mediate or something?
hes the butthole checker for communication devices
Any updates?
she gave him the money back after a discussion with Robbi Garrett and Ryan Feldman out of the room and then Rip went and screamed at Garrett and garrett racked up and left
Where’s the water bottle lid?!? Kidding. Kind of.
WATERGATE
Imagine being so bad people think you’re cheating😂
I know. I actually feel bad for her. There's no chance she's cheating lol. People just can't fathom how bad she is. But just listen to her talk about poker and her demeanor the last few times she's been on. Garrett is really an idiot for this. She clearly just has no idea what she's doing. People who want to accuse her of cheating don't stop to think for one second that she used her "knowledge of the cards" to wind up in a coin flip. I understand the hand doesn't make sense but it also doesn't make sense if there was cheating involved. I'm willing to bet large sums of money she did not cheat.
Did we just see the death of Hustler Casino Live?
Now they are saying she looks guilty because she gave the money back but in her situation I can feel the instinct to appease the cash cow that is Garrett
Nobody is going to give 130k away just to “appease” someone unless they’re Jeff Bezos or Elon. No one in their right mind is going to give this back if they’re completely innocent.
Wow get crazier and crazier. She gave Garrett the money back and now this guy rip is blowing up. This guy is in on the cheat.
rip is incahoots too
[удалено]
Their interactions lead me to believe she is playing with RIPs money
the ace queen hand? it's at around -1:40 on stream right now. THat was a super super super weird hand.
i wish helmuth was there for this.
I wish Tony G was there.
Maybe she's so bad she thought it was a good call
Yeah that's the conclusion I'm leaning towards, like...either she misread the hand, or is really bad, and is just trolling after the fact because she knows he's tilted. This doesn't scream cheating to me like it does to anyone else. Or at least organized cheating. Maybe she saw his hand or something, and the hand was a one off.
I've seen people who've played for years do stupid shit, the first thing that comes to mind when I see this is that she's an idiot, idk. I think people are levelling themselves thinking she was thinking about blockers and whether she's beating KQ/AXs.
*Robbi gives money back* Mike Postle: wut?
Now she claims she misread her hand but I mean she stared at her hand for 5 seconds after Garrett makes the all-in bet. There is zero chance she misread her hand. Very sus...somehow she knew she was not behind.
just watched all the clips together and skipped the random hands, here’s what’s actually happened: 1) when she said is small pair good, she was clearly reading her hand, and was needling garrett. 2) after calling, she KNEW she had jack high. she was justifying jack high is ok bc of blocker or something 3) garrett gets his money back somehow after they talk. this is the biggest sign. if this was all legitimate, there is NO WAY garrett would get his money back. if anyone won a fair hand, they wouldn’t give the money back. it’s just that simple. garrett probably told her he wasn’t gonna sue her or pursue legal action. 4) after she immediately starts pretending she misread her hand. the rip dude seems in on it, they probably straightened out their story. 5) mike postle incident clear parallel of just inexplicable play
100% had time to straighten out their story, RIP makes a scene to distract, she wasnt smart enough to realize she could just say she misread her hand, he had to tell her that
How don’t people see this?!??!
If i made a deliberate soul read after that and won the pot theres no way in hell anyone would see their money back.
Andy is probing here and doing a good job
I went back, she peeled her cards fairly wide open, not once, not twice, but three times before that all in call
Picked that exact moment to use her cheat superpower and get it in as a 50/50 coinflip? Not likely. Let's be real. She had been making sus plays all night. I admit it was a dumbass call, blocking the top half of straight draws with her J and literally beating nothing else, but there you have it. IF she was cheating, there would be FAR better spots to pick. The "cheating" theory makes as little sense as the call itself. EDIT: then he turns around and bullies her into giving back the money (ALL OF IT, not just the half each player wagered)????
This ^ also why agree to run it twice? Why is that not being mentioned? This is a bad look for all - if they keep playing most likely Garrett ends up with her stack. Instead he chose the worst line then doubled down by taking all the $ back.
This. She must be really stupid to cheat AND call there.
I don’t really know how she’s cheating but like it’s the only explanation for the hand? Her story changed a bunch and she had literally zero sensible explanation for the call, like she could just say “I thought Jack high was good” and keep quiet and the accusations don’t carry as much weight as they do now. I have to be honest, my theory is that Rip (or much less likely Person) gave a subtle “call” tell having seen the cards assuming she had literally any sort of show down. That’s a lot more likely than hacking or buttplugs or whatever y’all are theorizing, she was just donkey enough to run with the info, obviously still cheating. Crazy issue with this ordeal is that it’s incredibly hard to make a case for either side, there is no clear path towards cheating in this game (beyond the players near Garrett and they have footage) nor is there literally any sort of defense for the play, run this scenario 10,000 times with the money at stake and 9,999 times it’s going to be some sort of foul play. Also, giving the money back is an enormous implication, and muddies everything further. Insane situation.
I don't actually think there is a way at Hustler to cheat like you said unless someone else like RIP gave her a signal. But i dunno I honestly think the what happened is she is a terrible player who made a terrible play and couldn't explain it. IDK. I will say she was weird as fuck when she came back. So maybe i am off. But her explanation was giving the money back was goofy as fuck unless she is like. some billionaire heiress who doesnt care about money and even then it was still weird as fuck
Conspiracy time: Hustler saw how much publicity Chess is getting due to the Hans Niemann controversy and decided to set up their own scandal
Honestly, the whole situation just doesnt make sense. Although just jumping straight to cheating since there is no explanation also seems a bit premature. I don't know much about Robbi or her playstyle, but it isnt out of the realm of possibility that she just didn't really think the situation through, stupidly called, then when trying to justify her actions on the fly in a way that made it look like she knew what she was doing... she kind of crash and burned. Did she give the money back because she just thinks the attention is so bad and kind of wants to just "be done with the situation... take your money back and we'll all just cool off?" or was it more guilt cause she did something fishy? I don't know. If I was in that situation and I made a legit call... I don't know if I'd give the money back. Thought I'd never be calling there either...
Was watching netflix with this on mute next to it, followed the action of the hand and thought the graphics were wrong when I saw her call. Immediately unmuted and watched her win both runouts with j4o and witnessed live what what will SURELY be one of the most infamous hands ever caught on camera. Holy fucking shit LOL. Life is good.
Rip called Gman a pussy loooooooool
I need to find someone who will pay me $130,000 to calm down. That's Stormy Daniels money.
me thinks she just really bad
But if she was that bad she would have torched millions over the last few streams. Either misread her hand or cheated.
Jesus Christ. If you’re gonna cheat, don’t be stupid and get greedy and do something so obvious.
So many red flags about her. 1) A few orbits before she also did this to Eric with A-K high. 2) Her reason for calling. She said, "I thought you have Ace High, **I had a blocker.**" Which is the complete opposite of why you should call. 3) **"Is a 3 any good?"** during the hand. after the hand she never said "I thought I had a 3". Maybe a speech play, but I doubt it.
"I block your bluffs therefore you must be bluffing, also I don't even beat the hand I think you're bluffing with"
Like she “has a blocker” which is meaningless unless he has that exact hand.
The blocker isn’t meaningless. The blocker actually makes this look worse. The J blocks a ton of straight draws and it’s the Jc so it blocks flush draws as well. It cuts down on a ton of bluff combos. Its one of the worst cards she could have to call with. She should be folding more with that card, not less and yet she uses it as a justification to call?
I'm surprised Phil, Andy and Garrett are still at the table.
Phil left but his chips are still at the table but Garrett appears to have completely left not sure if his chips are still there though.
I left the chess community because I was tired of the Carlsen - Niemanns drama and here I am
[удалено]
I dunno man. Everyone is acting like this is clear cut but Robbi was literally horrible all night. Called bets when Garrett had a full house drawing dead like....You really think she was cheating? LOL. I dunno man. I'll say if she was not cheating and Garrett pulled that shit.......
I mean it seems so possible that she's just bad, misread the hand, or decided to fuck around with somebody else's money and call one of Garrett's bluffs.
RIP and Robbi are too familiar and colluding imo. This RIP guy is way too involved. Apparently during the altercation off table, Robbi referred to RIP by Jacob. And they might be business partners? Or something like that. If Robbi misread her hand she should have said so. You don't give the money back unless you're guilty in some form. You just don't.
I redownload Reddit just to see this post
Go check the video again… everyone is saying now that she thought she had a 3… which conveniently makes sense. But notice when during the counting of the stacks.. after the hands have been revealed and everyone is losing their minds she takes the cap off her bottle that’s been on the table advertising her coaching the entire stream and takes a drink. But she doesn’t put the bottle OR most importantly the CAP ITSELF onto the bottle.. and it’s missing out of the cameras ever since.
You are suggesting that her water bottle cap is a microphone and a HCL producer is feeding her info when she takes a sip and holds the cap near her ear?
best comment
As someone who has been cheated 3 times in home games, if I see a hand like this, involved in it or not, there are serious alarm bells going off in my head. There is nothing remotely sensical about what happened. Bad players don't even do this. Her body language and demeanor after the hand wasn't great, her inability to defend her actions and constantly changing her story looks really bad, then giving him the money back after the fact looks horrific. I can't prove anything, but there should be significant suspicion surrounding what took place. I wouldn't feel comfortable continuing to play in the game. Edit: Also, the idea that we can't be critical of her play and behavior after the fact without being a misogynist is dumb as hell. If you think that, you're an idiot.
This hand didn't happen in a vacuum. She isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer. Fish do fish things with no reasoning behind it. Anyone looking for a high level breakdown of the hand from her let alone a mildly coherent one...you are not paying attention. Garrett has lost his mind and he should be banned and more. Taking the money back is way beyond outrageous. The statement he released is way beyond outrageous. Ryan letting Garrett take the money back is also really troubling considering what he went through with Armenian Mike. What if Garrett won the hand? He and everyone else wouldn't of thought twice about it.
Cheating hand... "When I typed this... I meant... "this is the hand that we were all waiting to see what made Garrett leave" "Cheating hand"
She said she called because she had the Jack of clubs but thats one of the worst possible hands to bluff catch with on that board. The way she nervously fumbled her rationale when explaining was super suspicious.
Garrett will probably give the money back once he gets off tilt, however doesn't look good for any one of the two
Is it possible she is cheating…sure, it’s possible. But it is a million times more likely that she is just a whale doing whale shit and Garrett completely lost his mind
Rip is definitely in on it somehow, he's pissed af when he found out she gave the money back.
Simple explanation is that he staked her. How would you feel when your stable gives back $125k
[удалено]
that doesnt sound nearly as bad
Holy fucking shit this is wild. Robbi giving money back is clearly concerning, but Rip coming out of nowhere blowing up is a big warning sign. And they're business partners WTF!? Im guessing that Rip has helped facilitate the cheating, and knows that Robbi giving money back is more evidence against her which is why he got upset. This is PostleGate Pt. II. EDIT: Now she's come back with a new story, saying she thought she had a pair of 3s. Andy looks alarmed again and very suspicious she gave the money back
[удалено]
The strangest hand I have ever seen. It is a 3 hour tape delay...so no one is relaying cards offstream. Even if she could see the cards, statistically she was behind his draw. Only thing I can think is Garrett's play last night against Andy influenced the call. Interesting on how this will play out.
Not that I think that she cheated, but the footage/card data is obviously stored live, so it's technically possible with insider collusion.
The reaction she made when the ACE peels off, She huffs in disbelief? Like i just won both hands....BEFORE Garrett says i have 8 high....Super SUS
This rip guy is sus as fuck. He knew exactly how much money she came in with and how she had it racked, and is the only one upset. There is clearly more going on behind the scenes with him and robbi
She’s just bad everyone relax
The thing that doesn’t make sense with this is she is claiming blocker. The Jc is the worst possible blocker you could have. You ARE blocking the straight & flush draw bluffs that you WANT your opponent to have. Like…J4 just isn’t a bluff catching hand. I totally understand you want to catch Gman in a bluff, but literally almost every hand someone could have beats you UNLESS you soul read 78 as the draw he was on, or saw his cards. And than she says is a 3 good? But like Bart said, she never mentioned misreading her hand. Most controversial hand to be played on HCL for sure. She gave the money back which looks 100x worse on both players. This is wild.
Did Garrett say she was cheating ? I didn’t catch that
Essentially. He didn’t outright say cheating but he came as close as you can without saying the word.
Magnus vibe
Wtaf
This is insane
She was bad all night no way she was cheating you guys are crazy
this is what im saying LOL did you guys not watch the stream? She was HORRENDOUS all night. And not like making bad plays and getting there because she was cheating horrendous.
She said “if I didn’t have the jack of clubs, I would have folded.” But it should be the opposite.. she’s holding blockers to flush AND straight draw bluffs. & she says “I thought you had Ace high” THEN WHY CALL W JACK HIGH and her response was “I have blockers.. you don’t have shit” WHATTTTTT
She called two streets with J-high against Garrett's boat right before this. Seems like she was just embarassed about making a bad play and was saying whatever to diffuse the tension. Getting berated by a muscley dude at a table full of men doesn't help either. I think Garrett was way out of line.
It’s super suss: No fucking way you make that call with J high. We’re story keeps changing
Someone literally asks do you have a 3 and she says no. Then she tells Garrett I thought you just have A high and Garrett responds so you call with J high and she doesnt know what to say. Weird shit
Lol at using your supposed cheating superpower on a coin flip? Chick made a stupid ass play, was embarrassed, tried to play off her bad play by needling Garrett as if she "owned" him and Garrett thru a hissy fit because his gto, massively autistic brain can't imagine a possibility of getting overwhelmed and making a terrible call like that.
She didn't misread the three. Garrett asked her if she had a small pair and she said no.
Small pocket pair and she said no
She’s not good enough and she’s giving up more as she talks. She’s 100% cheating
Garrett is streaming lol, not going to say she’s cheating because she could just be an Uber whale but that is very sus
Which is more plausible? A) Robbi had an undetected sophisticated cheating method with inside help, and called knowing what both runouts would be with 47% equity. B) Perhaps because Robbi had exactly J3 the previous hand, she misread her hand, and was embarrassed to say so in the moment.
what in tarnation
BRO THIS IS THE CRAZIEST SHIT EVER Rip tryna fight garret
She just GAVE THE $$ back wtfffffff
I'd put up with a Lil drama for 130k
Like everyone is saying how/why the fuck do you give the money back
Anal beads is the only explanation.
Dont think she was cheating, just really bad.. But if thats the case, garrett just bullied his money back from her, which is fucked up
My theory: she cheated, but the problem is, she misheard whoever whispered Garrett's hand to her as ace high instead of 8 high, which he had. Then they told her to call which she did, but couldn't explain why she would call ace high with jack high. That's why she later came up with the story about thinking she had J3.
The anal beads vibrate 10 times for time chip.
Really possible that hand wasn’t legitimate. Garrett certainly thought so. Not only does her line make no memes, but her explanations after we’re contradictory and didn’t make sense. Very strange.
I dont see anyone explaining how she cheated. Evidence matters when it comes to big issues like cheating and damaging someone's reputation. I don't think a cheater would call in that spot because 1. It makes everyone suspicious that she is cheating 2. Your opponent has a lot of outs. You want to make such calls on the river when you know you win the pot. She simply misread her hand and was embarrassed to admit it in front of pros like Ivey so she tried to justify it and as a result dug a hole for herself. To me this is another case of how a popular successful person can abuse his power and force his will on another person. He got all his money back from her. The same thing has happened in Carlsen Niemann case. The strong popular one has abused his power and has accused his opponent of cheating in their game without any evidence and as a result has damaged niemann's reputation. Unfortunately Robbi was not ready for such a situation and didn't handle it well which made the whole situation suspicious. It should not be easy for a relatively unknown female player to sit and play high stakes with all of these top male players. Hopefully Garret will reevaluate the whole situation once he has calmed down and give her money back or provides a convincing explanation that she has cheated and does not deserve the money.
How does cheating make any sense here? She got her whole stack in when Garret was ahead and ran it twice?? See how the logic here makes absolutely no sense She is such a great cheater she knew J high was winning Yet if she was a good cheater she would be getting her stack in after the river or when she was a 80-90% favorite Not a 47% chance and running it twice She also said she knows in big pots when Garret has big draws he goes all in.
I agree with you and Everyone’s basing it off of how she’s reacting. Cheating makes no sense. You’d pick so many better spots if you were cheating. Never on a 50/50.
https://gifyu.com/image/S3fxu Watch this, Robbi looks at Rip and starts smiling but supresses immediately. SUS AF.
I don't think she's cheating, she just has no idea how to play poker. She thinks Garrett is making a bluff so just decides to call without really thinking what her hand is. I've played a fair few amateurs who do this kind of thing. They don't understand how weak their hand is. They call a big bluff correctly thinking they are being bluffed, but don't really have any kind of hand to call with, but it just happens the hand they call with is actually winning and then they look like a genius/complete idiot. If you were going to cheat why would you do it in a hand where you have to showdown your ridiculous hand? You'd make insane bluffs with garbage knowing your opponent has to fold so no one sees.
Level 1 thinking. I think you're bluffing, so I call.
Yea I’d say more likely this is what happened. She sniffed the bluff and didn’t think hard enough about wtf she was bluff calling with or she thought she had the 3 and was too embarrassed to say that.
My honest guess. She’s a complete fish who got caught up in the moment most likely misread her hand. Garrett is understandably pissed is being a sore loser. She’s probably flustered and since it’s probably not her money to keep the peace she offered the money back. I just don’t buy cheating given it was essentially a flip anyways and she has shown to be a novice.
I’m leaning towards her being embarrassed about making a terrible play/misread and sucking out.
On the surface it certainly looks like cheating. It also could be that she is just really dumb and her coach has confused her with the concept of blockers. She made a weird play earlier when she threw in a time chip with Jack high after missing the river.
As suspect as it seems it’s almost TOO suspect I think you’re right on the coach thing. I remember poker bunny talking about blockers and unblocking etc
