ladies and gentlemen a poker Legend was just born this is Vladimir corzin also known as Santa the wizard and more specifically gambledore he's described as an Estonian inventor who's looking for some life experience around 2 weeks ago Vladimir decided the life experience he needed was to play poker at the absolute highest Stakes against the best players alive today keep in mind Vladimir also said and I quote I don't know how to play poker at all I'm here today to prove to you this man knows how to play poker and as you will see he's figured out how to dominate the best players in the world this first tournament is a $200,000 buy and you got to pay a Lamborghini just to get in and first place is walking away with over $5 million now what's interesting is that this tournament had a bit of a Twist at the beginning only 50% of the people in this tournament played poker professionally the other half of the field were specially invited VIPs people like gambledore obvious VI L as the tournament progresses most of the pros knock out the VIPs and by the time there were only eight players remaining seven of them were professionals can you guess who the other player was that's right our boy gambledore is on the final table surrounded by seven sharks and that is where our action begins in this first hand tanan opens king9 suited under the gun Corin decides to get aggressive in the small blind and three bets Queen Jack suited Jan is thinking here I'm a professional I have way more experience than this guy I can outplay him so we see him flicking a call The Flop comes out Queen 32 and there's your answer Vladimir with top pair as he thoughtfully Strokes the beard and just rips t with the snap fold and gambledore immediately shows off his style he doesn't let anyone out play him he shoves all in and he'll take this one down a little while later you can see we're down to six players gambledore starts by opening king9 off in the cut off Makita bad zakowski who has won over $50 million from poker tournaments decides to call in the big blind flop comes down Queen Jack Deuce Vladimir starts with a bet and Makita with two pair on this flop is not going to slow play he raises to 600,000 chips and almost immediately Corin shoves all in obviously Makita snap calls and here we are there's 4 million chips in the middle and Vladimir here says something like what are my chances here 50 60% to win and just listen to the rest of this exchange no you have less l i don't I only have 100% I don't have less maybe less I don't understand BL says he has 100% oh my gosh Makita tells him brother you have like 20% Equity Vlad looks him dead in the eyes and says no I have 100% I don't have less less I do not understand and he immediately Binks the T on the turn to make a straight the river is no help meaning we're down to five players and sure flad got pretty lucky but this guy knows what he's doing here we see Patrick Antonius raise 69ine suited on the button Vladimir gets aggressive again in the small blind and three bets Queen jack off suit Antonius folds and corin's going to chip up not too long after we see a very similar spot Vasa bua opens queen8 on the button and gambledore in the big blind he realizes how wide these guys are opening and he punishes them here he three bets 95 suited and once again he'll take it down now this hand starts when Patrick Antonius raises Ace Queen from the cut off and Vladimir three bets Ace n suited Antonius is sick of this guy he four bets all in Vladimir looks back down at his A9 and he basically snap calls he's dominated flop comes out 574 it's not looking good for gambledore the turn is another four Antonius has an 80% chance to win this pot and yet listen to what Corin says now magic happen and now the magic happens the river is a board pairing seven meaning players chop the pot I don't even know if we can say this man is getting lucky it feels more like he just knows something that we don't a few hands later Patrick opens up Ace 10 Corin is having none of it shoves in Queen Jack offit Patrick actually shows him his cards here and makes the lay down our next victim Roman starts by opening Queen Jack himself and once again gambledore is here to punish he three bet shoves all in Roman just has to fold and Vladimir corzin is now over 10 million chips the very next hand Antonius busts Roman meaning there's only three players remaining Antonius and Corin have big Stacks your stat is the one with the short stack that needs some help so you may think that Vladimir here should tighten up wait for the short stack to bust but this man has no fear Antonius opens Jack three gambledore three bets chips up yet again and just three hands later corzin starts by raising ace2 off suit your stad who by the way this is the same guy that won the main event in 2022 he's going to defend in the big line and we get an action flop Ace 106 Santa's got top pair your stead's got the flush draw Vladimir starts by firing out a potsize bet and Espen shoves all in Corin is not here to fold he makes the call and we have another 10 million chip pot the turn is the 10 of Spades Espen needs a heart here to stay alive but he does not find it Vladimir corzin Santa gambledore is now Chip leading heads up against Patrick Antonius he's guaranteed himself nearly $3. 5 million and they're playing for over 5 million up top players go on a short break and I can't make this up Vladimir Santa comes back to the table with a man dressed as an elf I I don't even know what to say a few hands in a heads up play Antonius limps in with Jack n off suit gambledore checks his option and we're off to the Flop we see 974 roll off and Vladimir over bets the pot with his open Ender Antonius isn't going anywhere and we're off to the turn the six of clubs rolls off giving Vladimir the best possible hand at the moment and gambledore over bets again firing out 4. 5 million ships antonus still doesn't believe him INF flicks in the call the river is disastrous for Antonius the nine of Hearts comes out Corin thinks for a bit before shoving all in and getting called quickly our boy gambledore is now over 20 million chips and we see him limp in Jack 10 offit Antonius jams in his stack with A7 and gets snap called Vladimir Corin has a 44% chance to win the tournament right now he just needs to spike a Jack or a 10 go to the run out flop comes out king 73 no help for Santa the turn is the two of spades safe for Antonius and the river is the four of Hearts Antonius takes down this pot and has reclaimed the chip lead a little while later gambledore has chipped down to 8.
1 million chips he starts by limping in 84 suited and Patrick checks back both players make bottom pair on the jack N4 flop and it checks through turn is the two of clubs Antonio's now as a flush draw he checks once again and this time Vladimir bets out 1. 5 million and Antonius shoves in his pair and flush draw and gambledore calls it off he has just 5% Equity the river is the nine of diamonds meaning gambledore is eliminated in second place and here when he's talking to Patrick is where we hear gambledore say this I don't know if I to play poker at all the thing is gambledore was just getting started if you thought this first tournament was good buckle up because I promise you this second tournament is better this second tournament isn't some Invitational with 50% VIPs no this is a $150,000 buyin full of Crushers people like Phil Ivy Patrick Antonius Makita Brinn Kenny Fedor Holtz Steven chidwick and Vladimir gambledore Corin this hand starts with 33 players remaining in the tournament Santa opens up a mystery hand in the hijack we see the small blind call and the big blind does as well go three ways to a flop which comes out 10 high checks around to Vladimir who starts with a third pot siiz bet pun just calls here with top pair and now our heads up turn comes out a board pairing three of Spades puny checks and gambledore fires out 105,000 chips puny once again just calls and we're off to the river the flush completing six of clubs rolls off puny checks for a third time gambledore has no plans to slow down he shoves all in and pun absolutely hates this spot he obviously loses to any over pair Ace 10 any flush and Vladimir is also going to have hand like four five in his range so puny decides to fold and gambledore just starts laughing he is king queen offit he didn't even have a club this man's simply a gangster and once again Vladimir Corin finds himself at a final table he has right around average stack and in this first hand he opens up que 10 suited from early position folds around to the big blind who's going to defend flop comes out Ace 95 boen checks and Vladimir does the same the turn is an action card as the five of Spades rolls off banz trips and gambledore has picked up a flush draw big blind starts with a bet and Santa just shoves all in obviously we see a call but boin is the player at risk here he has to dodge a spade here to double up and can you guess what the river is it's just economics and all of the CH as well and the Spade rolls in no the wizard strikes again as the seven of Spades rolls off and at this point the players at the table have to acknowledge what's happening listen to this table talk that was a nice [Laughter] spell and as I already said the best part is this magic is just getting started he's now Chip leading the final table when he looks down at two queens starts with a raise and the player second in chips Sam green wood is going to defend in the big blind now if you like action you're going to love this flop gambledore flops in over pair Greenwood flops a flush draw a straight draw and he's got an ace to go with it we see a 750,000 chip c bet from Vladimir and Greenwood again is second in chips he's surrounded by shorter stacks and he jams all in gambledore takes a second the dealer is counting out Greenwood stack when Corin says and I quote doesn't matter Cole the two biggest Stacks are now all in it's a fair fight it's around 50/50 and just listen to this how you feeling on this one Sant I don't have percentage I only have 100% 100% okay he's called this shot before here comes the turn it is the eight of hearts and now all of a sudden the pendulum swings heavily back in favor of Vladimir can Greenwood keep his seat no he cannot gambledore eliminates yet another player wins a massive pot and now has over 40% of the chips in play he's going to almost immediately put these new Chips to work here the big blind is 125,000 chips Corin open raises to 1.
