\"MarianoThere are times in a poker game where you just have to go with your gut. That was the case on a recent episode of Hustler Casino Live, which featured a battle between high-stakes YouTuber Mariano Grandoli and Wenzhi \u2018Wesley\u2019 Fei.<\/p>\n

It started with Wesley getting the best of it, dragging a pot of nearly $140,000 when Mariano got a little wild preflop with 10\"Diamond 9\"Diamond. Wesley\u2019s K\"Diamond 10\"Heart flopped top pair, but Mariano clearly regretted shutting down his bluff attempt on the river.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, he added on an additional $200,000, bringing his stack to over $300,000.<\/p>\n

Wesley still had him covered slightly when the two tangled again. With blinds of $25-$50 with a $100 straddle, Wesley raised to $4,000 from early position with A\"Diamond J\"Diamond. Mariano three-bet to $15,000 with 10\"Spade 4\"Heart on the button. That brought a call from Wesley, who was a 69% favorite to win, according to the Card Player<\/em> Poker Odds Calculator<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The flop came down K\"Heart 10\"Club 9\"Club with Mariano catching middle pair and Wesley with an overcard and Broadway straight draw. Wesley checked and Mariano fired $20,000, now with a 55% chance to win the pot.<\/p>\n

Wesley check-raised to $40,000, which prompted Mariano to ask him if he was trying to raise. Wesley confirmed that yes, he was trying to raise, but later on Instagram would clarify that he meant to raise bigger to $60,000.<\/p>\n

Mariano called and the pot swelled to more than $110,000. The turn brought the 7\"Heart and gave Wesley more outs for a straight with a double gutter. He bet $80,000 and Mariano went into the tank with his second pair, weak kicker.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just feel like I have the best hand,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

After some more consideration, he announced all in, putting Wesley to the test. He asked for a count of Mariano\u2019s stack and saw that making the call would cost him another $162,875.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow did we get here?\u201d Mariano said with a laugh as he realized the pot size. \u201cThat\u2019s a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not adjust your screen,\u201d said commentator David Tuchman. \u201cWhat you are seeing is correct.\u201d<\/p>\n

After going through the math, and ignoring some table talk from Henry Guttman, Wesley folded and Mariano dragged the pot of $440,875. He then told the table, \u201cI don\u2019t know what I\u2019m doing,\u201d as he turned over his hand, stunning his opponent.<\/p>\n
