- [Chris] From Seminole Hard
Rock in Hollywood, Florida.
This is Poker Night In America.
(jazz music)
Welcome to Poker
Night In America,
I'm Chris Hanson along
with Joe Stapleton.
- I'm on Tinder.
We are back at the
Seminole Hard Rock
playing some poker on
the paradise live stage.
It is so cool, that these
guys are playing poker,
on the same stage as so
many talented musical acts,
as well as Smashmouth.
- We gotta warn you,
in this episode,
we are going to be showing
some serious amounts of skin.
- Yes, but actually, the
warning is about the fact
that over 65 percent of that
skin belongs to Mike Dentale.
Bake 'em away, toys.
- [Chris] Buy-ins go from five
to 10,000 tonight, here
at Seminole Hard Rock.
It's our first day,
back in Florida.
- [Joe] Tight is right.
- [Chris] Blinds are 25 and 50.
On Poker Night In America.
- Yum, yum.
How do people flop
sets here, you, him?
So easy, huh?
- Well, you have to
start with a pair, Mike.
Call it in ahead of time.
Tell me to remember
to start with a pair,
doesn't start with
a pair too often.
That's the problem.
- [Man] That is a key.
- When you start with
a pair, it's easier.
You know, it's not. It helps.
It makes it a little easier.
- [Joe] I wonder how
much Mike Dentale
is charging for those two
tickets to the gun show.
Probably going for below face.
- Yes, you have
more shots at quad.
- [Chris] Sigel makes it 175,
and DiPascale makes it 500.
- [Joe] Hanson, who's
wearing it better right now,
Sam Abernathy or Mike Dentale?
- Could we get cocktails?
- [Joe] Shoulders!
- [Chris] I'm gonna give the nod
to Abernathy on that one, sorry.
- [Joe] Agreed.
- Check.
- Checks in the dark.
- [Joe] Everything's in
the dark for this guy,
pretty sure the,
presidential motorcade has
less tint than those glasses.
- [Chris] Flop is jack high.
(poker players chatting)
- Samantha, that was a nice
run you had at Sugar House.
- Thank you, yeah.
- [Chris] So a
1,000 from DiPascale
and then a raise to
2,000 from Sigel.
- [Joe] Normally I would
say this is a bad raise,
but something tells me
DiPascale does not play nearly
as tight as his euro fade.
- [Sam] Yeah, that was twice.
With Zachary.
- [Man] Yeah.
- [Sam] I forgot about that.
- I'm all in.
- [Joe] Oh, boy.
His hand is like
the poker equivalent
of "do you even lift, bro?"
- Find out, for 2,000.
- [Joe] I think normally that
fold is gonna be correct,
but as you can see by
that very natural tan
there isn't much
normal about this game.
- [Chris] Mike Sigel today,
he's losing some of his
real estate at the table.
With all of the muscle
that is starting
to impede from
both sides of him.
- [Joe] Squeeze it
in there, buddy.
- Yeah, he's on
tilt, full blast.
- Well, you're gonna be
on tilt now. (laughs)
- Me? I'm not.
- We should just keep the
fire department on speed dial.
- Yeah.
- There's gonna be
some chip flood fire,
we don't know who's yet.
- Round, round and round.
- [Man] The coals are burning.
- [Joe] Looks like
the straddles on,
it's a blind raise to 100.
From Mike Laake.
- [Chris] Actions on the
button on Mike Dentale.
Brings it up to 250.
- Come on, my chips
don't even hit the felt,
like (censored).
(laughing)
- We're just trying
to isolate the fish.
It's like, I don't
get it, raise.
- [Joe] Sigel's
three bet his jacks.
Dentale's in position, but he
is gonna be dominated a lot.
- Raise. It's always
raising, raising, raising.
Gonna have no chips left
if you keep raising.
- I just keep raising
with the best hand,
if it doesn't hold up,
if I get out played,
I can't help that, man.
- [Joe] It's a five card game is
something someone who
sucks out a lot says.
- [Sigel] It's as
simple as that.
- [Dentale] Are you gonna win?
- [Sigel] I'm
gonna win this one.
1,500.
I call.
- [Dealer] Pocket fives?
- Yeah.
- [Joe] Sigel can only hit
a jack to win this hand.
- Like I said, if you hit,
(censored)runner, runner 
I'm gonna lose.
I'm gonna keep playing
the best hand, though.
- [Chris] And for Mike Sigel,
two hands and there
goes the fist buy-in.
- [Joe] He's actually
taking it really well.
- 10,
I got 11 back.
- [Chris] Once the thoughts
actually come out of the brain,
through the vocal cords
and out the mouth,
then we're gonna have some fun.
- Wow, I got a lot of fish
food on this one, man.
- [Sigel] You're
gonna do real good.
Like I said,
if the worst hand loses,
I'm gonna do very badly.
- All right, I got
a flight to catch.
Someone coming in for me?
- I would get outta
here if I was you.
- [Joe] Looks like Sigel's
coming back in for another 8K,
don't get hot, get in the pot!
- Rough start for Mike Sigel,
let's see if he can crawl his
way back up, after the break.
- And you guys crawl
your back too, okay?
Yes, we know you're drunk.

- Welcome back, to
Poker Night In America.
Along with Joe Stapleton,
I'm Chris Hanson,
let's get back to our poker.
Poker Night In America
back at Seminole Hard Rock.
We got a straddle
and a re-straddle.
In this hand.
- I'm not gonna insult
your intelligence, Jake.
I did not have kings.
I have better than that.
- [Man] Kings and above's
all the same, though.
- [Dealer] Raise it
up, five's the bet.
- No.
- [Chris] It's a raise
to 500, from Schindler.
- [Joe] I like this raise,
with a suited ace
he can make the nuts
and he's in position,
after the flop.
- What I had above, and
you could have a lot
of hands I could make
a lot of money with.
Cards rolled out, right?
- [Chris] Well, it's a
good raise from Schindler,
but unfortunately, it got
zero people to fold here.
- [Joe] He is by far the
best hand, four handed.
Well, he was.
- If twos or threes
come, I like Dan's hand.
I hope he's not twos and threes.
- [Dealer] Seven is the bet.
- [Chris] The first
bet is 700, from Sigel.
- Seven.
- [Joe] Nice fold, DiPascale.
- We had the two
sevens, it was so bad,
you just threw 300, I saw you.
I hope there's not a two or
a three out there, you know?
- [Joe] I think Jake could
easily come in for a raise here.
He'll probably be happy to get
some more money in this pot.
And he'd probably be fine
to get it all in, actually.
- [Chris] Abernathy folds.
- [Joe] Also folding
top pair, good fold.
- [Chris] So the
raise was to 2,600.
Sigel called, so here
we go, to the turn.
- [Joe] DiPascale's
a good tipper,
I'm gonna go easy
on him after that.
- I'm all in.
- [Chris] Sigel now has
two pair and he's all in.
- [Joe] He has improved,
but it really doesn't change
much about this for Jake,
since any improvement,
he'll still beat Mike.
- I'll tell you two truths.
I don't have jack nine
and kings are no good.
- [Chris] Are we
playing a new game now?
Is this like two
truths and one lie, or?
- [Joe] I don't know what his
point is in telling him that.
- Come on, Jake.
Come on, man.
- Call.
- Two pair.
Okay, I told you,
kings are no good.
- [Chris] Sigel, a little salty.
That he just got
called on the draw.
- [Joe] Jake might
have two many outs.
- I was hoping he had kings,
less of a chance
to lose his hand.
Any king or queen.
- [Man] Not the king
or queen of diamonds.
- (Censored) you, call with
that.
- [Chris] Here comes the river.
And the flush does
not come home,
so Sigel, finally, wins a hand.
- 90.
96 and a quarter.
I was (censored) praying
he didn't have that hand.
- [Joe] Make no mistake,
Jake's not leaving the table,
this game is way too good.
He's just gonna get
some more money out
of his old lady coin purse,
the big chips are
next to the bus pass.
Huge pot for Mike Sigel.
Yuge.
- We need a dictionary
and an encyclopedia to have
a conversation with him.
You gotta speak his language.
- Wouldn't that
make him very smart?
- [Sigel] Yeah.
Actually, that's the wrong two
books that I did pick, Mike.
You need a book, but
not, you're right,
not a dictionary
or encyclopedia.
Rosetta Stone.
It's a new language right
there, Rosetta Stone.
- Yeah, he's right there.
- [Joe] Joe, you're
action next, brother.
- Love a good
friendly cash game,
that would never
fly in a tournament.
- [Chris] Well, plus
they know he's got plenty
of money to get in the
pots, they don't want him
to miss a chance to
bluff away more money.
- [Joe] As indicated by the fact
that he just put in
400 dollars blind.
(laughs)
- [Chris] Yeah, we'll
wait for DiPascale,
as long as he needs,
whatever works best for you,
we're on your timeframe.
Abernathy calls out
of the big blind.
And, now to Dentale,
he will fold.
Sigel calls.
- [Joe] Sam with the
worst of it, three ways.
Sam flops okay, though,
not as dominated here
as she should be.
- [Chris] Sigel fires out 900.
A call.
From Joe DiPascale.
- [Joe] Sam's definitely
gotta call though,
that money out there.
- [Chris] Has DiPascale looked
at his cards yet, do you know?
- [Joe] Looks like he's going
for it now, if he hadn't then.
And Sam gets there on the turn.
Sigel and DiPascale,
drawing dead.
Sigel can chop at least.
Maybe.
Sam hoping to get
called by Just an eight.
Poor guy, who's just a know
better meaty meat head.
- Did you look?
- Did I look?
I'm not sure.
- Alright, I'm all in.
There's three there.
- [Joe] Joe's gotta 1,375
and his best case scenario
is to chop this pot.
- How much is it?
- It's 1,375 more.
- [Sigel] He just spend
4,000 with nothing.
He just spent 4,000 with zero.
She raised him 1,000
more, he can't call.
She bet 3,000, she raised him
1,000 more, he can't call.
- [Joe] Normally,
I wouldn't know how he could
even think about
making this call,
he's just getting such
a ridiculous price.
- It's bad, huh?
- Let me see, can I see?
- I had that buried.
- Well, you're
chopping an eight.
- [Joe] There are no
chops here, my friend.
- Technically, how could he win?
- Oh, you wanna know now?
Rosetta Stone?
- How could he win?
How could he win?
It's impossible.
- [Chris] It does hurt,
but there's no reason to
just give her 1,300 bucks.
If your best hope is hitting
one of the eights in the deck.
- [Joe] I'm sure plenty
of poker players would
just give her 1,300 bucks,
but maybe they'd rather not
do it in such an obvious spot.
(poker players speaking
over each other)
- Nice try at that bluff, Joe.
But, Bambi is unflappable.
- She's also unapproachable.
I'm kidding, she's quite
approachable, but still, don't.
- [Announcer] Poker Night
In America is brought
to you by Kimo Sabe.
- Well, hello there,
welcome back to Poker Night
In America with Joe Stapleton,
I'm Chris Hanson and let's
get back to the poker.
Poker Night In America
brought to you by Kimo Sabe.
- I'll call, (censored) it.
- I will (censored) call.
I will raise.
How much is that?
- I should say I'm
never calling him.
- This might be a big
one, just so you know.
- [Chris] To Sam Abernathy.
[Joe] And she must have
something pretty decent,
to think about playing against
the dude who hasn't played
a hand the entire episode.
- [Chris] Abernathy
calls with the fives.
- [Joe] Perfect
hand to call with
and take a juiced
up multi way flop.
And so is Jack 10
for that matter.
- [Chris] How about five three?
- [Joe] Not so much.
- [Chris] So four players
will go to the flop.
Laake, a slight advantage
as we see the flop.
And wow, what a flop for him.
But things are gonna get
interesting here in a second.
- [Joe] Laake starts
best, flops best.
But this is a dicey board, he
should not be checking this.
- [Chris] Nobody willing to bet,
so it's back round to Laake.
1,600 is the amount.
Now with pocket
fives from Abernathy,
this could be a place where
you call, maybe see a turn.
- [Joe] I mean, she's
got a straight draw,
can improve on the set,
but neither one of those is
gonna be, okay, no, just call.
It's fine.
If you hit your set you're
on a four card straight draw,
if you make a straight there's
other bigger
straights out there.
Not a gigantic fan
of calling there.
Dentale's gutshot is a long shot
but at least when he hits
it, it'll usually be good.
- [Chris] And Mike does call.
After DiPascale folds,
we're now three players.
To the turn.
- [Joe] 7,700 in the middle.
- [Sigel] What do you think,
red dues or black ten?
- [Joe] That Is a
great card for Laake.
Someone could have improved
and has almost never
gonna affect the strength
of his hand on this board.
- [Chris] And the players
gonna let Laake name his price.
- [Joe] He's gonna wanna
make this sizeable,
again, it's a pretty dicey
board, lots of draws out there.
- [Chris] 4,000.
- [Joe] This pot is getting big.
- [Chris] And with little
to no effort, look at that.
Laake plays one hand
and wins one hand.
- I'm fishing.
I'm just having a blast.
- Good thing I gave you
an 8K headstart today.
- I got a lot of odds, a
lot of money in the middle.
Good chance I'll take a shot.
To win a huge pot.
- [Joe] I got a lot of
odds, the best odds.
Everybody's always saying
how many odds I got.
Great odds.
Huge odds.
Oh, we kid, but we
care, Mike Dentale.
- [Chris] Seriously,
with arms that big,
I would never make fun of you.
At least to your face, I would
do it on TV all day long.
- [Joe] Let's make
America sleeveless again.
- [Joe] (laughs) Sam Abernathy
is such a funny texter.
Turn my phone off now.
Do you know the perfect
animated gif that says,
"Leave me alone for a
second, babe, I'm working"?
- [Chris] No, what's that?
- [Joe] No, I need one.
Sam facing a 900 dollar call,
I think she should
probably just fold this,
her implied odds are okay,
but she's just not gonna
make the winner that often
with seven six off.
- [Chris] Would you
stop? She called.
- [Joe] Sorry.
Even though he's in position,
this is just a huge
raise to call a pre flop.
I'm fine with the fold.
- [Chris] All right,
so we're heads up with
Laake and Abernathy.
- [Joe] Especially because
we know he was dominated.
At least Abernathy is alive.
Oh, man.
Dentale would've
flopped two pair.
Unfortunately Abernathy's
caught a piece,
so she's gonna have to
call at least one time.
She's in position at least, now.
- [Chris] 1,400
the bet from Laake.
Over to Abernathy.
- [Joe] So remember,
whenever you're talking
about implied odds,
there's also
reverse implied odds
and that's the money
you're gonna lose
when you make a costly
second best hand
and for right now,
that's what Sams got.
And you don't call
1,100 pre flop
with seven six and then
fold when you hit a six.
- [Chris] All right,
so here comes the turn.
Jack of hearts.
- [Joe] Laake's gotta
still like his hand,
but he may or may not want
to pot control a little here
and make the pot
not too much bigger.
- [Chris] He does check.
- All in.
- [Chris] Abernathy takes
advantage of that check
and shoves it all in for 6,350.
- [Joe] Well, that's one
way to try to win the hand.
- [Chris] Turning
her six into a bluff.
I think Laake's
gotta call, though,
there aren't many
hands Sam would need
to protect here that ace
queen is actually losing to.
And if she had something
that ace queen was doing
really bad against,
she probably wouldn't have 
shoved.
(poker player drowned
out by shuffling chips)
- [Chris] Ship it from mama.
Well, Laake has got
to be feeling pretty good after
those last couple of hands.
- Affirmative.
Find out who else is up
all night to get Laake,
when we get back.
- Listen, no matter what I have
fun on the set, I like Sigel
and I have no bad blood for the
guy what so ever.
But he don't shut the (bleep) up
when you're in a hand.
He just keeps yapping away,
yapping away and yapping away
and kind of does throw my train
of thought.
And I don't want to annoy
people, I don't want to tank too
long, peole want to play the
game.
Listen I'm one to give it and I
can take it all day long.
I love the banter, I love having
a good time but I don't think he
does it on purpose, I think he
means well.
I just think he's an airhead.

- Welcome back to
Poker Night In America,
lets check out the final score.
- [Chris] So what did
Michael Laake play like?
Seriously, two hands
and he's up 15,000 on the
night? Life's not fair.
- [Joe] It's the two
that counted, check
out Jake Schindler,
he played a whole bunch
and he's up 50 bucks.
Hit and run, Jake,
get outta there!
Some ups and downs in the poker,
but as far as I can
tell, no one was eaten
by the wildlife and no one
contracted a deadly disease,
so it's pretty much a win
for anyone in Florida.
- Jennifer Tilly is gonna
join the table next time,
and she has a hard time
keeping her Mikes straight.
- Classic Jennifer.

hand when I sat down.
- How could I possibly
lose this hand, right?
- Did you look at your
cards at any point?
(laughing)
No.
- Yeah, he looked.
- After she went all in, 
I looked.
