Share on Twitter Share on Facebook 5 min readOn Monday night, Hellmuth’s Home Gamepresented by Poker Night in America (PNIA) and sponsored by BetRivers debuted on CBS Sports.
The nationally-televised show, which will air weekly at 8:30 p.m. ET / 5:30 p.m. PT until the end of 2025, is unique in that there is no commentary. Instead, the show is carried by table talk from Phil Hellmuth alongside a cast of fellow pros and friends in an intimate, relaxed cash game setting.
PokerNewswatched the first episode and compiled a recap of some of the biggest hands and interesting storylines. You can also watch the full episode on YouTube.
Here’s how things stacked up at the start of the show:
Player | Stack |
---|---|
Nevada | $10,000 |
Randy “3Coin” Sadler | $10,000 |
Dan “Jungelman” Cates | $21,200 |
Xuan Liu | $20,000 |
Phil Hellmuth | $5,000 |
DJ Washburn | $10,000 |
Phillip Hellmuth III | $5,000 |
The game was played with $25/$50 blinds with a $50 big blind ante. Here’s a look at some of the biggest hands from the first episode.
In just the second hand of the episode, Xuan Liu straddled and Hellmuth looked down at the 9♠9♥next to act. He popped it to $300 and DJ Washburn called with the 8♣6♣from the hijack. Randy “3Coin” Sadler, the founder of 3Coin Clothing, came along from the small blind holding the K♦9♣before Dan “Jungleman” Cates three-bet to $1,800 from the big with the J♠10♠.
Liu folded her straddle and Hellmuth debated what to do.
“My instincts say to put it in Jungle,” Hellmuth said. “What is going on here? Jungle knows how tight I play, but it’s a little early, maybe he wants to get a little showy. Alright, I’m all in.”
“Speech-play all in,” Liu commented.
Hellmuth slid in his stack of $4,100, action folded back to Cates, and he called before the pair agreed to run it twice on the $8,950 pot.
The 6♠3♥2♣Q♠3♣runout on the first was good for Hellmuth, and the K♣5♥8♠A♥A♠was as well to allow the “Poker Brat” to scoop.
“The tone has been set,” Liu waxed poetic.
In another early hand, DJ Washburn raised to $250 from early position with the A♣Q♠and 3Coin called from the button with the Q♣8♣. Xuan came along from the big blind with the 10♦6♦before Hellmuth defended his straddle with the 8♥2♥to make it four-way action to a flop of 5♦K♥A♥.
Two checks saw Washburn continue for $725 with top pair and action folded back to Hellmuth, who called with his heart flush draw. The Q♥turn completed that draw, and Hellmuth checked in the dark to Washburn, who bet $1,150.
Hellmuth just called while saying, “I’m not a believer yet.”
The Q♦river wasa disaster for Hellmuth, who opted to lead out for $1,500.
“I have to pretend I have king-queen, and I have to hope you don’t have ace-queen,” said Hellmuth. “Ace-queen, I probably can’t beat. I think you have a flush, and I think you can’t fold.”
“It’s in the range. Well, let’s see what happens,” Washburn said before moving all in for $6,675.
Without hesitating, Hellmuth folded his hand face up.
“Oh, that really hurts,” Hellmuth lamented. “Especially if he hit a miracle river there.”
About midway through the episode, Cates raised to $250 holding the J♣10♥in early position and DJ Washburn three-bet to $700 with the 7♠6♠on the button. 3Coin had straddled and called an additional $600 after looking down at the 8♥5♥, Cates called, and it was three-way action to a flop of 5♣3♠4♣.
Two checks saw DJ Washburn, who had flopped the nuts, bet $900 and 3Coin check-raised to $3,000. Cates got out of the way, and DJ Washburn just called, which brought about the A♥on the turn. 3Coin checked it, and DJ Washburn bet $2,000.
“For my ego, I am folding,” 3Coin said before releasing and giving up on the $10,225 pot.
Cates straddled, and Hellmuth just called with the 4♠4♣from the hijack. His son, Phillip Hellmuth III, then raised to $300 from the button after looking down at the Q♠Q♥before Cates three-bet to $800 with the A♦4♦.
Hellmuth released his small pocket pair, and Hellmuth III moved all in for $2,625 total. Cates looked as if he was going to call but changed his mind and sent his cards to the muck.
3Coin raised to $300 with the Q♣J♠, and Cates called from the hijack with the 5♠3♠. Xuan then three-bet to $1,200 holding the K♦Q♦in the cutoff, and action folded back to 3Coin, who released his hand. Cates wasn’t so quick to ditch it and called to see a flop of J♦5♣8♣.
Cates checked bottom pair, Xuan checked it back, and the 9♦appeared on the turn. Cates checked for a second time and Xuan, who turned a gutshot straight flush draw, bet big to the tune of $2,000.
Cates took his time before calling and then checked the 7♥river. Xuan bet $2,500 and Cates hit the tank.
“Interesting,” he said while talking aloud. “What cards do you want to show me? … I have a bluff catcher. I don’t know, it’s close enough.”
Cates then dropped in the chips and claimed the $11,825 pot.
“Eccentric super pro,” Hellmuth exclaimed.
In the final hand of the episode, Cates raised to $150 with the K♠Q♠in the cutoff and Xuan three-bet to $500 from the button with the A♦6♥. Action folded back to Cates, who called to see the flop come down 7♥6♠A♠.
It was a big flop for both players, and Cates checked the nut flush draw. Xuan, who had flopped top and bottom pair, bet $400 and Cates woke up with a check-raised to $1,400. Not to be outdone, Xuan popped it back to $3,400 and Cates called to see the turn, which was the 4♣.
With $7,925 in the pot, Cates checked and Xuan bet $5,000. That was what it took as Cates let his flush draw go.
