Made to Play Challenge: FINAL TABLE

This is life-changing, this. It’s big if you lose this one, Joel. Huh? It’s life-changing. Might as well go the full nine yards now, Joel. Just chuck it down, mate. Ooo. Might as well go the full nine now. I don’t say too much. When the cameras are rolling, you’ll see the action. There is a world in which I could win this. I’m going in there cold and I’m going to shock them all and take that money. Forget the Mr Nice guy. Now it’s game day., They’re going to see a different side to me. I deceived them. I’ve never lost poker before. The magic of poker is, the perfect blend of skill and luck. But this is anybody’s game. Welcome to the 888poker Made to Play Challenge. We’ve got five of the biggest football fan influencers around. They talk good game off the felt, let’s see if they can do it when it counts. We’re playing Winner Takes All poker. Let’s find out who’s gonna be our champion. Kelechi, man, press something. I don’t know what is happening, man. We’re in the same boat. Oooo. If you’ve got two Queens, it’s really good. Like, two more Queens. Mate, there’s there’s no point in explaining, he’s not getting it. Two pairs. You don’t even know! What you’re talking about. Making moves me. Bruv, it’s you, again. You weren't lying I thought he was hustling me. He won’t, he won’t.. No. Nah. Around the table? Rory, actually. I think Rory. Er, I think Rory, I think he’s got experience in it. Rory Jennings. Don’t want to give too much away here. He’s quite proper, he’s a very knowledgeable guy. Yes. You just look at him, he looks like he’s, you know, a bit of a rogue. You know, I’ve been playing for a few cents here and there. You know, being a Chelsea fan as well, there’s something a little bit dark and sinister there and I think, and I think it’s going to show up on the poker table. This lucky charm. My poker skills and my football team. And I’ll be blessing my opponents, by the time they know it, I’ll win the money. My poker is a little bit better than Arsenal at the moment. As you’ve seen, Arsenal, we haven’t, you know, finished where we, we wanted to finish. I think they're about the same. But my poker skills, hopefully, I’m a number one winner. On the front foot, very tenacious, very aggressive. It is very pleasant on the eye, but when you get up close, I don’t think it’s gonna be very pretty. He’s got nothing. He’s not even going to raise him up. What's that boys. Learning on the job. That’s what you call it. This is life-changing, this. It’s big if you lose this one, Joel. Huh? It’s life-changing. Might as well go the full nine yards now, Joel. Just chuck it down, mate. Might as well go the full nine now. Ooo. This is me out. Oh, Rory, you’re gone. No. Rory it’s over Mate, as soon as I saw ace and a queen I am like, you go. Come and help me. I’m livid. I’m upset. But I will be back. A huge shock as we lose pre-game favourite, Rory, in fifth, the first to leave us. Super unlucky to run ace jack into ace queen. Sometimes in poker, there’s nothing you can do. Four left for the prize. Ooo, I’d say you won that. We’re gonna need a break, we’re gonna need a break. What a huge pot, that could be decisive in this tournament. Joel has a flush, beats Flex’s straight.. Flex, every right to commit his chips on that hand. A huge hand, but sometimes huge is not quite good enough. Joel takes it down and now has a big chip lead. Might as well just play it all in, Flex. Yeah, I would. You might as well. Yeah. You might as well. Go big. Ooo. Kelechi is all in, good luck, Kelechi. Two players all in. Flex, it’s over. You get me bruv. You get me. I’m disappointed. I’m not gonna label it as a conspiracy, but something’s up. And so we lose Flex, in fourth place. Knocked out by Kelechi in a three-way pot. He’ll be very disappointed, I don’t think he ever quite got over losing that big pot to Joel. We’ve got just three players left. Kelechi’s all in And Kelechi wins with an eight on the river. Well done. Remember, the game is the game. Shark. And Ped’s gonna be eliminated third, bad luck. Good luck, gents. It’s winner takes all, isn’t it. I'm just a little bit disappointed, it felt,

like something was going on in the room. Two Arsenal fans. Ped leaves us in third place. Never got that big hand to really get going in this tournament, but third a really creditable result. He leaves us heads up. Joel still with the big chip lead. Let’s see if he can keep that focus that he’s been showing so far and bring this all home. Bruv, let's talk, let’s talk. You wanna talk now? Let’s talk now. You want to do the talking? Yeah, yeah, let's talk. Arsenal making it into the final and there’s, gonna be an Arsenal winner. Wow. Bro, easy on me now, easy. You know what. I’m choosing violence. Kelechi is all in again, this all could be over. A pair of aces is gonna take it, Joel’s gonna be the champion. Kelechi, bad luck. Second place, well played. Joel, you’re the winner. Thank you very much. Ah, fair play, fair play, fair play. Fair play, mate. Yes Well, better than I expected, to be honest. So I was almost there, you know, and I’m very happy with my performance. Gonna take these off for a second. If I’m honest with you... Sharks. Hustlers. Kelechi. What a joke, he told me he’d never played poker before. Yes And look what happened, he made it into the final. Nobody expected me to do anything., But I came in there, played a bit of mind games, you know. Joel Beya. I’m not even joking, Joel Beya was texting me,, asking me, what’s a flop, what’s a straight, How does it work, what’s the river mean?. As if he didn’t know. He just secured four bags without breaking sweat. It doesn’t usually happen, an Arsenal final. You know, I feel like a European Champion. I peaked too early. I won the first hand and.

from then on, it just went downhill, so a disappointing day. I’m gonna have to go home with me tail between me legs. Flex and Rory. Man United, Chelsea. The rivalry stays strong. It wasn’t strong today. I was cheated out of it by people who said, that they’ve never played before. Joel. What can I say. And he had. Simple as that. He lied. Of course. So did Kelechi as well. How has Kelechi come second? Something’s up, something's up. And I wanna know what. Of course I expected to win.. Of course. All right guys. Gonna take a selfie. Say cheese!,
