Player Accused of Cheating at World Series of Poker After Making Ridiculous Call

by Larry Leo

June 22, 202332 Comments

Professional poker player Martin Kabrhel has been accused of cheating at the World Series of Poker...

quote:
Kabrhel finished third in the $250,000 buy-in Super High Roller No-Limit event on Sunday, but has drawn cheating accusations because of a couple incidents at the final table. The WSOP is investigating.

Kabrhel, from the Czech Republic, turned heads with a very questionable call that would knock out Dan Smith in sixth place. Kabrhel raised and then Smith re-raised all-in. Kabrhel thought about it briefly and then called with 10-6 suited, whch is a garbage hand, but he flopped a six and Smith and his A-Q never recovered.

I’m failing to see how he could have cheated here as he called with the worst hand and had to hit a card to win. Unless he was in on it with the dealer it’s not cheating. Hell, in the grand scheme, it’s not a terrible call as the guy had 30 million and it was less than 1/6 of his stack to make that call. Questionable, maybe, but cheating, I highly doubt it.

I don’t see a problem. I the guy wants to go balls out that’s his game. If this had been Ivy or Helmuth everyone would say it was brilliant.

If it would have happened to Helmuth, he would have bitched like a little girl just like he did years ago when another player did the same thing to him.

Older players get pissed when the younger generation of players do not play poker the way they do. Weird calls and lucky draws piss them off.

So he didn’t play like the other dumbasses thought he should play and he is a cheater!! Lol

How did dude cheat? LMAO what a bunch of sore loser school girls. Other dude didn't have shite either, luck of the draw you loser.

A Q is not a bad starting hand at all.

3PieceSpicy•31 months

Is he being accused of counting cards or something? I don’t get it. He took a calculated risk with 1/6th of his chips to try and knock a competitor out. And it just happened to work.

KosmoCramer•31 months

Counting cards from a standard 52 card deck?

WTF?

beaverfever•31 months

All I see is a routine hand of poker in a late-tournament scenario.

SomeLSUguy•31 months

He had a chance to eliminate a player at the final table... And once you go head to head with another player, unless one or both of you have a pocket pair, his 6 or 10 have just as much of a chance as his A or Q to hit. Obviously the AQ is higher, but the probability of pairing a card is the same... plus he has a chance at a flush or straight. This is not a bad play when you are big stack.

Guy has a huge stack and probably expected the other guy to shove all in with half decent hand. Crazy play but thats how a lot of these guys play

LSU$$$•31 months

yeah, has to be more to the story than this

They keep saying Bawski cheated, but don't ever say what they think he did. If only they had 6 cameras around the table so they could watch the playback, then STFU and apologize.

This article was off, he was accused of cheating for other actions, not this call. His cheating definitely would not rise to the level of knowing what cards were coming ahead of time.

Lol. Aggie is a pussy

idlewatcher•31 months

Seems cowboy guy is just pissy the cards didn’t fall his way

tjtiger9•31 months

So dude gets mad because his bluff got called???

TheWalrus•31 months

Have you ever played poker? Moving all in preflop with ace-Queen in that situation is not a bluff and he’s way ahead

AgCoug•31 months

Kabrhel's a complete prick, but there is nothing even close to substantially show he cheated. Maybe he did, but there is not nearly enough evidence to lay these accusations.

Sisyphus•31 months

For anyone that is curious, he was accused of cheating by marking cards. Several people have made the accusations against him. No clue if it is true.

jamarr•31 months

how can he cheat? he knows the cards before they come? odds were he would lose, he knew more?
