Brad I appreciate that you include all kinds of hands, even the “less interesting” ones like your A-10. Those ones help me so much in becoming a better player.
Well then let me break away from what I consider a costly mistake I see Mr. Owen make too often: when you flop a flush but only have 6 high or anything under King - don't chase. Too many times you get lured in and then suddenly you have to call a huge bet on your hunch that they don't have it and they do.
As someone who works in tax and has a low skill level in poker. You’re an inspiration to those of us stuck in the cubicles dreaming of brining 3 stack of high Society to Vegas and leaving the office grind behind.
Brad I think I’ve been watching since episode 12 or something like that. You’re continued success at the tables and on here is so deserved and I’m happy every time you post. Keep killing it man.
Seeing your growth over the years has been an honor Brad. I feel like this journey you’re on has involved me in some sort. Congratulations on becoming the WPT ambassador
JJ would have 6 outs, wouldn't he? all the 8s plus the remaining 2 jacks? As usual, this vlog reinforces why there's 600,000 of us who love this channel!
Hey Brad just want to say that I appreciate that this episode had a little bit information in it in terms of teaching. I think many of us like to watch these videos to learn, and seeing you explain some more fundamental concepts of when to 3-bet, or even identifying fish or whatever, makes the videos all that much better to watch.
Hi Brad, want to share my first poker experience here. (It might be a bit long) Been watching you for some time and was very excited when I had the chance to go play poker at a casino for the first time. Bought in for $200 (Canadian) for a 1/3 $300 limit hold'em. After half an hour of uneventfully losing my limps and big blinds I was down to around $120 without seeing many flops. I picked up A7 spades, calling a $15 raise the flop comes K88 with one spade, player to my left raises to 70, all others fold. Tired of folding for the whole session I call with only 40 or so left in my stack. Turn is another spade, the player puts me all in and I call. Due to my beginner's luck the river is another spade, I hit the nut flush, he had flopped kings. Up to $240 now the very next hand I pick up 96 off, in a 5 way $6 bet pot, flop comes 866, I flopped trips. At this point my hands already begin to shake a little due to my low run good tolerance, I bet $30, all except one fold. Next card is a blank, doesn't change the board. I bet big for value, $70, he calls again. At this point I was too excited to think about the opponent's hand but at this point it becomes somewhat obvious he has a pocket over-pair. River comes for another six, giving me quads! I obviously shove for the rest of my stack and surprisingly (to me) he calls. He shows pocket aces for a full house, but I come crashing in with the quads. Doubling again I'm at around $480, and way too shaky to even stack up my chips. Nice guy to my right offered to help me stack them up, and overall was a great help in that session as he obviously is quite an experienced player and was nice enough to help me settle into my first real money game. At this point I've decided that I had enough for my first night and was 90% ready to rack up. Next hand was 74 off which I folded, still busy stacking my messy chip pile. But before I could decide to leave I get dealt pocket kings somewhere close behind the blinds, I raise to 15 to the limpers, player next to me raises to 30 and all others fold. I consider my hand and make the fateful decision to 4-bet to 100 to get a fold out of most hands. He in turn shoves all in and has me covered...getting quite dizzy at that point, but I can't let go of the kings so I call and get the bad news...he's got aces. The board is as blank as my face when he shoved all in 15 seconds prior and neither one hits anything. Got left with nothing and had no choice but to walk away a loser that night. But I'm determined to get better and come back there one day (but maybe some online poker first) to win big. Cheers for your content Brad or whoever else reads my epic tale ✌️
where did you play? i played my first 1/3 cash game 2 weeks ago at casino niagra. nice to see that brad is getting other young people into the great game of live poker
Continue to love the videos Brad and love watching all of your success and growth. You’ve done an amazing job building a multi faceted career! You deserve all the good things that are coming to you! Really love your good nature and your sense of humor.
Hey man, Ive recently come back to playing poker after about 2 years, during those two years away ive been watching your vlogs quite regularly and i just wanted to say that just by watching and learning off you since ive been back playing poker ive noticed ive become much better, winning more often and it feels amazing. Just wanted to say Thanks man, keep up the vlogs, keep on crushing.
Love your content Brad. I played in my first charity poker tournament this year after watching your videos for a while. Kept thinking about how there’s no right way to play jiggities!
Nice session, and wise booking the win when the table makeup starts changing and making more profit becomes more difficult. And congratulations on becoming a spokesperson for the WPT, they choose a great representative for their tour.
I been playing on and off since 2004. You have been the only poker vlog I have ever watched. You def have a unique blend of poker strategy with a lot of comedy mixed in. I'll always be a fan and it's been a rush watching you move up in limits like the top comment says. Keep it up man
Loved watching the livestream with you on the lodge. Now I get even more Brad content! Been a sub for years, keep up the great work. You’re my favorite player!
So amazing to see how far you’ve come, from me watching 5 years ago to now is just incredible! As well as learning from you on the way to become poker player myself!
Absolutely loved this one Brad! I’ve just turned 18 in the UK and only played in some small home games so far but loving learning from your channel. Hopefully one day in the future I venture out to a meet up game and get my hands on some Bradley dollars 💵
I'm super happy you are enjoying playing Brad! That makes two of us, I'm playing with a few of your meet up friends at the Aria 6 days week. Having a blast! They all have a front row seat of what I do almost every night during my retirement years! It is an awesome fraternity at the Aria along with an amazing staff!! Lets go!!
Yeah, under the right circumstances. For now, I'm pretty content to be playing on the Lodge's stream to help grow that channel since I'm part-owner there.
Love your videos man! It really got me into poker and now I am planning small games with friends on the weekends and plan on going to Vegas to play before too long!
Great content man I'm from Canada and live the vlog very informative and your doing what any person who likes the game dreams about and your making it work plus your documenting amazing brother
Brad not sure if you saw the poker game hosted by a number of streamers, but Phil played in it and I think seeing you in something like that would be great. Definitely a lot of positive exposure for you considering you’re such a great guy!
I heard about it but I haven't seen it yet. I'll definitely check it out. I'm pretty happy to do streams at The Lodge. I played a few last week. I think we'll get an opportunity to play with some of those people in June on the stream in Austin.
WPT should be honored to have you Brad. You've put in the work and made our days so much brighter and stacks much higher. I love, love, LOVE your dry humor commentary
72 years old. Your vlog has increased my 1-2 games tremendously. I binge your sessions on my tv so I can’t like or comment as often as I want. I have played for 20 years and have totally changed my play thanks to you. I check your channel daily. My win/loss has improved drastically. Trilled that you career has taken off and wish you the very best. Thanks Brad for improving my game to the level I now play.
Awesome session as usual Brad! Making mondays great again 👍 hope I can be as good as you someday and do what you do man congrats on everything brotha! Thank you
I think part of what makes these vlogs so good (with Brad being the best of course)... is not showing the opponents hands. I remember a decade ago they would show the one mystery hand and that would be the best part of the 3 hour show. Keep it flowin Brad - awesome to see the come up from 1-2 as well!
I love that you are truly a poker player first, and a celebrity second. You know where you are strong. You know where the game that you can beat is. Don't let ego get in the way of your success. Play where you win. Some people seem to be habitually playing way beyond their bankrolls, and comfort levels, just to get views. I like that you still know where your bread and butter is.
Absolutely love the content. Been watching every episode since probably March last year maybe earlier. I’ve not built the courage to play an actual game yet since i don’t know the full rules and how to play but one day I’ll get there. Thanks for the sick content dude and congrats on joining WPT.
I loved your analysis at the end of the night. Big win in hand. The game is getting tougher with more pros filtering in. Knowing that it is time to leave is wise. Actually leaving is virtuous. Brilliant.
Hands with fun table talk, especially viewers that are excited to play against you are really enjoyable. Nice to be able to give people 30s of fame yano.
watching your channel has seriously improved my poker game. im very amateur and just play on weekends with my friends, but I’ve been having great folds and smart bluffs that I usually wouldn’t hit and it’s keeping me above even. I’ve made profit the past 3 sessions and I plan on keeping it going. Let’s go Brad🙏🏻🙌🏻
Me and two of my best friends are sophomores in college and we’ve been watching you religiously for a couple of years now. Maybe one day you could make our poker dreams and play at a table with us at a meet up game. Anyways, crazy to see how far you’ve come. Keep doing your thing
Hey there, I’m an amateur poker player who has been hitting up medium stakes tables for a decent living. Was playing at the table yesterday and the promotion was Jacks never lose. Heard 2 people at the table talking about Jiggities so your influence has reached everywhere! Was really surprised to hear people talking about your channel and jiggities 😂
I've been watching you for two years now. You are the most entertaining poker vlogger. Your sense of humor is top notch. I use your "player x hates money " line every time i play. You could be a good comedian or writer if the poker thing didn't take off so well. In terms of production, Jaman Burton beats you but you are still my favorite. Keep on growing bro.
Love to watch your videos Brad so glad to see you run good and being successful at everything you do. Hope to meet you one day and play a session with you. Peace and good running to you!
WPT is a really class organization with great people. I did an event for them for Baccarat Crystal in Palm Beach and they could not have treated me and my staff any better. Congrats on your position with them.
