Welcome back to Poker Night in America and look who's back. I knew he couldn't stay away for long. Dave Eldridge, legendary in the Pittsburgh Rivers poker room and poker rooms all across the country for that matter. - [Joe] Straddle's on and it's Kyle Bowker. So let's all just fold to him and get to the next hand.
- [Shaun] Did you add this hand Kane or was it for next hand? - Um, I don't, I gave him the money, I don't-- - Whatever, we'll just say it's not playing. - [Kane] Just make a ruling, it doesn't matter. - It doesn't play this hand. - [Ted] I would say that ten's not in play. - [Joe] Ted, harsh but fair. - Wait, so it is or it isn't? - Is not. - [Chris] He always was the smartest of the triplets. I hope he doesn't cost anyone money here because that would be terrible. - [Joe] I think Dave Eldridge is gonna cost himself some money perfectly fine all on his own. - [Chris] Kalas made a $1400 with his kings. Original raiser, Dave Eldridge, on the decision. And it looks like $1400 is not enough for him. He makes it $3100. - [Joe] Eldridge either not a believer of Kane Kalas, or ten, eight is his lucky hand. Kalas calls in position. - [Chris] Everyone quick, look at your cards. - [Joe] Under reps his hand a little bit by just calling https://casinoslots-sa.co.za/eco-payz. - I agree it wasn't his greatest hand, but-- - But I'm talking about what I watched on TV. He just-- - [Chris] $6300 into the middle. Here's the flop. King, six, six. Flopping boats and feeling good. - [Joe] Clear minds, full house, can't lose. - [Chris] Kinda bad news though is that Eldridge got nothing. Like, nothing. - [Joe] He is drawing dead and this is the exact kind of board he should keep telling his old bluff story on. I think the move here is for Kalas to smooth call. It's really hard for Dave to have a hand he can call or raise with. - [Chris] And there is the call. - [Shaun] He tried so hard. Like that month, the work we did-- - He doesn't have a big enough ego to where he thinks that he's better than you guys or whatever. He will take the-- - [Chris] There comes the turn. - [Shaun] I called him. He was more work than I thought he would be, but he was the hardest working student. He was up until two, three in the morning every day with us in between days. Studying, going over ideas, discussing strategies, reviewing tape. He worked so hard and he now-- - [Joe] Looks like Eldridge might be giving up. - [Shaun] His wife was awesome, she gave him all the free time to work-- - [Joe] I like a check back here for Kalas. So many hands are gonna fold to a bet. - [Chris] Exactly what he does, so we will see a river. - [Joe] Oh, that is not a good river for Dave Eldridge. He's got a full house now. - [Todd] I know, I was just thinking what if his wife would've said no? - [Kyle] Yeah, like it's only for eight million. - [Todd] No, I mean you need to come home for dinner. - [Kyle] Yeah, yeah. - I don't know how much that would affect their lives if he won or got nineth. - Oh, yeah. I mean he has a lot of money or whatever, but still. It' still like the biggest spot of his life. - It's not just the money. - Yeah. But no one ever gets into it. - I was very worried that he was totally going to ignore ICM, we'd actually-- - [Joe] He probably can't value that and get called by Orris, but he might call a river bet from Kalas. - [Chris] Yeah, if Kane comes in at like the $4500 mark, he might get called. - [Joe] Let's see what size he makes it. - $3,200. - [Joe] Pretty small. The way Kalas has played this hand, I think that he's very rarely gonna have a hand that an eight is beating in this spot. And Eldridge agrees, good fold. - Would you have 4-bet if the 10K was in play? - Hm? - Would you have 4-bet if the 10K was in play? - No difference. - [Joe] And we've got a double straddle. Double secret probation straddle. - [Dave] I just told him I had ace, king with no diamond on that last hand when he check-raised and he believed me. (laugh) - [Shaun] I told you he's not that smart Dave. Trust my reads. That was a double straddle right? Right Dave? - [Dave] I mean yeah, yeah he totally believed me. - I watched the last time you played here. And I've played with you before. - Yeah, we played-- - How much is that? - We played a tournament at uh-- - [Chris] Kalas has made it $625 with fives. - Like 50K. - [Shaun] I thought he said 1K. - Yeah, it wasn't that big. - [Shaun] Not so big. - Yeah, I think I got screwed. I beat the Ann Van Tran, or Ann Van Win. - [Joe] Nice juicy pot to get things going. Ganzfried with the best of it. Oh, not anymore! Top pair for Eldridge. Set of fives for Kalas. - [Chris] Kalas is gonna do his best to get more of that money out of Eldridge here. - [Joe] Five alive, somebody is about to get knifed. - [Chris] Check check to Kalas. Here comes $725. Seems so dang affordable. - [Joe] Don't do it Ganzie. - [Chris] Good fold. - [Joe] Eldridge, on the other hand, he's gonna have to lose at least a little bit more. - [Chris] He calls. So $3400 with heads up play between Dave Eldridge and Kane Kalas as we head to the turn here on Poker Night in America. - [Todd] Yeah and Vanessa was there and claimed she was blackout drunk and then she was there for another 12 hours. - [Joe] Getting blackout drunk is the closest a human being can come to time travel. It's like you woke up in the morning and you from the future came back in time to mess up your life. I called who? - Can I get a double Tito's and soda water with three limes squeezed into it? - [Joe] Well if getting blackout drunk is time travel, Todd Brunson just ordered a DeLorean. - Actually can you get me two of those please? - [Shaun] Pacing yourself. - [Joe] $1700 on the bet from Kalas. - [Kyle] I'll have one too. - [Todd] A little Dmitri this hand. You flop bottom pair with no draw, no nothing. A flop middle set. I check, that's the pot-- - [Chris] Eldridge trying to keep this pot controlled. There's check calling here on the flop and the turn. - [Joe] If Kalas bets again on the river, I think Eldridge should seriously consider laying it down. He is beating no three streets of value hands. - Like I'm gonna throw my hand away at this point. We ran it twice and he won it once, I won it once. - [Shaun] Yeah, I know. He took out Keith and a few other people. - [Todd] We would have a full game and then-- - [Joe] Kalas goes for $3350 on the river. In order to make this call, you have to think your opponent is an absolute maniac. Now Kane from the WWE, he looks like a maniac. To be honest, so does this Kane, but not that big of maniac. Wow. Dave Eldridge liked calling more than a salesman at the gym after you cashed in your free training session. Kane Kalas running hotter than that big straw man they burn at Burning Man. - But unlike the people who actually go to Burning Man, he's not making a giant (beep) deal out of it. (laugh) Another stop for Poker Night in America at Rivers in Pittsburgh meant another opportunity for tournament players to take home big cash in the 2016 Pittsburgh Poker Open. Our final five players bested a tournament field of 270 players and then battled it out in front of our cameras for their cut of the $261,000 prize pool. The first player eliminated from the final five was Edgar Kelley Jr from Hamilton, Ohio. Fourth place went to David Serkoch from McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania. Congratulations David on your $19,000 payday. Eli Stepanovich III got third place. Imagine that. But no worries bud, $25,000 in prize money should take away some of that pain. And finally we were heads up with two Johns from Pennsylvania. After a spirited heads up battle, in the end it was Jonathan Love finishing in second place with a $39,000 payday. And that left John Kulp as the last man standing, taking home the 2016 Pittsburgh Poker Open Championship and the $68,000 that went with it. Thanks again to all the players who made the 2016 Pittsburgh Poker Open a great event and hope to see you again next time. The house is full. Lots of poker being played here this weekend. See where we're gonna be next, maybe right in your own backyard, by going to pokernight.com. - [Shaun] You're that close? - I'll bet. - [Todd] Does anybody wanna change seats? - [Shaun] Not me.
