    We can all agree that Sebastian Malec is living the dream of every poker beginner 😍
  • @oscarhuzell4662
    Going into the crowd and taking a selfie while waiting for a shove-call on the winning hand of your first poker tournament is an all time boss-move
  • @ALLCAPS
    You can tell he's actually a good guy... he just has to act the way he acts to get into peoples heads. But other then that, crying after winning is like one hell of a pure reaction and you can tell how much stress he had there, at the table.
  • @yudiputra2595
    “Is he saying he got 9 or no in german?” I love the commentators xD
  • @donkinney3658
    I am so happy for him. What a run. I was feeling every emotion with that young man . Just the RIGHT amount of TALK.
  • It was amazing they both called each other last hand perfect. Congratulations to the young lad who won.
  • Reichenstein made a lifelong fan out of me. That's class we can all learn from and strive for. Congrats to Malec.
  • @SnailMan63
    I really appreciate the title. It doesn’t spoil the end
  • @MrScrax
    Hope to see more of this kid, he's hilarious.
  • @BruBish
    Uri is class… but poker needs more characters like Malec
  • @Datsun510zen
    Malec's release of emotion at the end with his buddies was priceless. He was carrying an unreal about of tension throughout the game and I can imagine it was beyond cathartic to finally let it out. Sebastian said a few times "just call so I can go to the bathroom". He had the nut flush so in his mind I'm sure he was thinking "JUST CALL BEFORE I EXPLODE !" So real, just like the Jeff Buckely song.
  • @wolfVFV
    18:20 its so amazing that they both call each other hands exactly

    really shows how deep this game can be and how many information you can get jsut by the betting and "reading" the opponent
  • Amazing for the kid , delighted for him and huge props to Reichenstein, amazing class , lost like a champ
  • I never watch poker but this match was worth a like , the commentators make it even more interesting. Loved the whole thing from start to end . Unbelievably pure reaction at the end
  • its insane when they predict each others cards exactly right in the last hand. the talk between them and everything around this last hand was some of the most entertaining poker stuff ive seen.
  • @dwelt80
    Some legends say that Sebastian still needs to go to the bathroom to this day.
  • That pure joy and excitement sound as he feels the feels as he is hugged by his friends is perfection. More bro joy is needed. Bros holding bros. Love it.
  • @baronsonics
    Matches like this bring a tear to my eye. Beautiful performance
