The Hustler Casino studio hosted the second Million Dollar Game from May 28 to 31, 2024. Many exciting hands were played during four extensive broadcasts. Our team selected the best three for our readers.
The first stream of the Million Dollar Game was watched by more than 27,000 people. As expected, Tom Dwan was one of the most popular players, although clearly not for the reasons he wanted. The session did not go well from the start, and as a result, he lost two pots of more than one million:
Interestingly, Tom lost both hands to the same opponent, Peter, who ended up with a massive stack of $2.52 million.
”I shouldn't have paid with 94, of course, but I couldn't do anything on the JT," Dwan said in a postgame interview. He ended the session losing $992k.
The most shocking hand of the whole program was thanks to Texas Mike against a player named "Hook.”
Mike entered the pot with a straddle with T2 and called on the flop with 54A (straight gutshot draw), while Hook bet with 78. Then the turn turned out to be a 6, and the fate of the hand seemed decided as Hook completed his straight. Mike decided to make a check-raise bluff with no chance of improving his hand, which paid Hook. A possible flush draw was completed on the river. Hook bet $160k on a clear overbet, and a brave Mike decided to check-push.
Hook decided not to bet his remaining $574k with a straight, leaving a hand to remember with an incredible victory with T2o just a couple of weeks from the anniversary of the death of the unforgettable Doyle Brunson.
Alan Keating took the program's largest bot, $2.4M. The show's regular visitor had a VPIP of 68% and still managed to snatch a huge amount of money from his rivals.
Alan, with T9 of spades, got a strong draw on a 48J flop, as this one had two spades. His opponent, Raul, hit a pair of eights and could complete a flush.
Two big bets by Keating did not scare his opponent, who connected his straight on the river thanks to a seven. Sadly for Raul, this also brought him two pairs, and he bet $200k on the river, receiving an all-in in response, which he paid after thinking about it for a while.
The most expensive cash game of the year, with a minimum buy-in of $1,000,000 ($500/$1,000 blinds and $2,000 ante on the BB), was played at the Hustler Casino in Los Angeles from May 28 to 31, 2024.
The next edition of the Million Dollar Game of the Hustler Casino will continue to bring us a lot of emotions and impressive hands.
