the holding trash and premium tell is pretty weak
Khabrel has just a different style to play!!and it works!!but because the so called“pros‘ cant figure him out is not a sign of cheating!!!!
Imagine he has contact lenses that can see a substance that he applies to the cards with different motions so he can range them
Q2 shove argument also weak… it means you didnt watch the previous hands… which Martirosyan had big hand so was unlikely he had again a third onw…
You'd lose big if you played against him
Kabrhel always acts like he’s high on cocaine, and it’s always disgusting
Great job Martin 👏
He is the biggest dick in poker what doesnt help to stay objective. He most likely is cheating but can't be 100% sure.
Why didn’t the floor stop him from standing up and peering down at another player’s cards?
Certainly looked as if he was marking cards with his finger nails. Then, after I saw him do that, I paid close attention to his hands. He has rather long finger nails for a guy!!! It seems to add up 2+2=4 for sure!!!
What a Legend, proper gets into the nerds heads with his genius tactics
He's denting cards, this is wild
Martin K is bad for the game.
fucking hell this editing is irritating.
dan smilth is a baby
I played a lot of tournaments in the past with him in Rozvadov (Kings Casino) and I can say everyone hates him from the Dealers,Players,Service Staff etc.😉I don’t talk to him and always cover my Cards🤔😉
Q2s sb open jam 14bb is pretty standard
Shoving the Q2 is one of the few non-suspicious things.
So people were aware of him marking cards and there was no full investigation requested of the tournament staff? Nobody checked the cards afterwards? Nobody cared to find out? Is that what you're saying? Nobody requested an investigation? Because if so, you dumbasses deserve to get robbed. Are you out of your minds?
This is stupid hahah so you’re suggesting he marked the Aces and then sees the markings and then calls with K3 against a marked ace??
Why is nobody beating his ass
What do you mean you dont know?? Hes literally on videos marking cards😂😂
I once (when I was a noob) called out that some cards in play were scratched marked rubbed etc and everyone including the dealer and director looked at me as if I was insane. I said well if you're not going to change the deck I will keep note of the markings and make a deep run here. I did and made some cash but I'm always suss these days.
He has contact lences that shows up a special ink he marks all premium hands.
Great video with all the info in it. I was watching some of this live, and while I didn't pick up on anything in this video, I did think he was doing some strange stuff, nothing you could say is cheating as such, but just really weird, consistent timing of when he'd just look around at the rail, it was just odd behaviour. Seems mad you'd try anything at such a high coverage event, but those videos are pretty damning.
Everyone else at the table should request a new deck after every single hand. "We dont trust him, if he's touched a card – we arent using it again"
He's not cheating for crying out loud
Dude looks like Jessie Pinkman after about a week on the glass 🧤 😂
Could he have special contact lenses that show whatever he's smearing on cards?
i personally think he’s hilarious but that’s just me lmao
Clearly he knows something there is all kinds of ways out now to mark cards ive seen plenty of crazy stuff
They should be able to examine those decks and find out for sure, right? Need to bring a blacklight with me next time i play.
constructive advice: Your videos are WAY too fast for any person whose first language isnt english. Spoken too fast and way too many annoying cuttings even though the topic wouldve been very interesting
He definitely acts like someone that is doing something wrong. That type of defensive that makes you think of trolls on the internet hacking CoD.
He's a CHEATER
I don't think he'd be crying if he hit hit Queen
If he really did mark cards or used any kind of sticky substance, the other players would have immediately noticed it, especially after all the attention that has been brought to it.
Dan Smith what a classless clueless entitled cry baby 😢 “it’s my ball and you can’t play”
Jamie Gold set the president on cheating and breaking the rules and NOTHING happened to him. Nothing will happen here either. The moment he folds his hand and does something funny with his fingers on the card, the dealer should right away place those cards on the rack to be inspected. By the floor. The WSOP will do nothing. They will not check each deck he was apart of using. The will sweep this under the rug so as to not look bad. It's too late. Until more important players speak up against him, noting will happen.
beta male energy by dan
I was play with him few time on Czech Poker Tour (ČPT), and for my opinion, im sure he's cheating for long therm. I thnik his WSOP H.R. win in Kings Casino also not clear win, he is close friend with casino owner, who is regulal mafia man from russia. Kabrhel own his company for detail mathematic analytics, so in every tournaments he has there his own team there. He still comunicate with them, get eye contact and has a special "body" signals. This guy must be under floorman control all the time or ban him.
The same normies who think US elections are legitimate will be shocked to find out high-stakes poker has ALWAYS been cheated. (duh) Marking cards isn't how top pros cheat, but this just shows anyone who isn't blatant could mark the cards. When pros talk about "having a piece of each other", that's code for "colluding together", and nothing stops it.
Only one reason a person would dig their nail into cards or try to scrape them leaving a tiny mark. The guy is a filthy cheater.
Dan Smith is definitely triggered but that does not mean Martin cheated.
It's clear slander to make these accusations without evidence.
I think he was cheating, i also think dan is a little bitc h
Dan Smith sounds like a cry baby. Has anyone heard of Phil H? Talk about antics. I believe that the clip of him pushing down on the card has just a simple mind game. He knows everyone thinks he's cheating, so when he pushed down he's looking straight at the guy to his left. Like he's on purpose pretending to mark it just to upset them. And it worked. Yes he's a little annoying but that's not cheating. Lots of head games involved with poker and as of right now he's got the best head game of all of them. And if I stand for one second, even if it's against the rules, if it gets in your head I'll take a warning. Now who will be the first one to learn how to ignore him and his antics?😂😂
I know we care about Kabrhel not scanning cards and standing up.
But do we care about the sticky fingers?
100%. Someone got that close to my cards I'd cover them with chips. And give a left hook to cheating ass mutherfucker on camera. He's a Cheater and needs a life long ban. And WSOP needs to take the 5mil back and divide it up between remaining final table players.
Martin asked for new decks,,complained cards were marked
