If you’ve paid attention to the live-stream chats on YouTube during the matches, you’ll notice the poker community is mixed on its assessment of the play. Some argue the difference in the match is pure luck, while others believe Negreanu is simply getting out-played.
Regardless of your thoughts on skill, there’s no doubt the luck has been on Polk’s side throughout most of this challenge. He has yet to lose a single all-in pot with cards to still to come while ahead. Conversely, Negreanu has lost a handful of those pots. And the overall number of large pot coolers appear to be heavily in Polk’s favor.
