A few hours ago, the World Championship of Online Poker on PokerStars saw Douglas ‘WCG|Rider’ Polk set a new record for the biggest-ever win while streaming poker on Twitch.TV!
Back in April this year Doug “WCGRider” Polk won $163,000 while streaming his game live on Twitch. At the time, this was the biggest score ever streamed live on Twitch.Tv. In July a Russian low stakes player won a random €250,000 spin and go tourney while streaming, breaking that record. And WCGRider managed to snag the title back after the $455,000 ship for his 2nd place finish in WCOOP event number 53 $10,300 NLHE 8-Max High Roller.
This was a second place finish - WCG lost a coinflip while heads-up with AK again his opponent’s QQ, leaving him short-stacked. Soon after he shoved with 55 only to come up against another QQ. Winner, player "Grindation" made $586,000.

^ he changed it up when he was big stack at end of day1 (100bb). He quickly lost his stack day 2, and really impossible to "change it up" playing 50bb deep and less MTT poker |

It takes a trained eye to see his non abc plays. His postflop play is insane. I saw a lot of floating, and bluff catching. He made a few bluffs with air too. Good poker is just being the most balanced in every situation, picking your spots, and yet still exercising extreme discipline. |

The so called abc players do not play like doug and often fold in spots where doug doesn't and never bluff or overbet in spots where he would. |

In Day 2 this was SB vs BB only
He simply shoved when he had a better hand than average BB and due to stacksizes and position postflopplay was not an option.
Dont see how this is anything spectacular
But well i stopped playing Poker long time ago and was never any good
maybe i am missing something
