"That's why I played those hands that way. Sometimes you're gonna run into it and that's fine but this is the way I want to position myself in this tournament world, and this is the type of player I want to be. I gotta stick to my guns" -Instantly liked after that quote. Love it.
Hey Lex, great video but I have a question about the hand at @58:00 You say it's easy to snap it off but come to think of it the only bluff hands in villains range that we are beating are broadways and A2-A5. However there are a ton of hands that beat us: any 6, any 8, sets, T7, T9 and any overpair (although though they are likely to 3bet preflop). The only value hands that were beating here are JT,QT,KT which decided to bluff turn and go for value bet on the river which is somewhat more unlikely given that we have a T blocker. So correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think we're getting the right price given the villains range in this situation, so maybe making the tough fold is better here? This is just one of those hands...
Oh, loving this lex and all other work that u do bro. Tnx. One honest question: I live in a country where gambling is illegal and poker can send me to jail or worse. But the last 4 years I fell in love w/ poker and started playing it and thanks to RU-vid, I had a lot of chances to learn. But a lot of times, on this podcast & other place, I hear: hitting the lab and study on my game. I very much love to do that, but how can I actually do it? I mean the WORKFLOW, potential software I can/should use. I don't have access to master or visa card or PayPal either.(should i let go of the dream?) Can someone plz help me plz? I would be very much greatfull
Kreliss my country is under sanctions by USA. I live in Iran. I can't play on pokerstars or any other sites that u guys can play. Some illegal sites in Iran and live poker in back rooms. Yeah, u guys are lucky... even RU-vid is filtered here,twitch, facebook and... But could someone plz tell me the workflow i need for working on my game?
wish i saw this video 3 days ago. I won a ticket for 109 and 55 and used them in scoop bountys and that's what I done played to passive and got eaten alive !!!! I'm a micro-low grinder I think its called absolutely crumbling haha aw well u live and learn ! GL Lex love the stream
Sorry but the AK check in position when K drop on river was AWFUL. You hit the magic card and check. Im 100% sure one of the would call a bet, maby both depending on betsize.
Lex refuses to share his results because he's a losing player. Without Pokerstars money he couldn't afford any of these high buyins. He doesn't want that information becoming public but he hasn't won a major tourney online, EVER. Of course he's not a winning player in $1k's and $2k's.
Its so funny. I can see the same things happening in his tournaments that always happens to me at pokerstars. Its just not possible to reach a final table of big tournaments or if you reach one, you will bust like in 9th oder 8th place with ridiculous suckouts. I also played at Full Tilt and at Pokerstars.fr (france). On these sites ecerything was completely normal, you could win key flips and you could also win tournaments, I was making profit there. Everything was fair. But in pokerstars.eu sonething is completely wrong, its not possible to make a profit there.
Boqn Gochev youre usually always getting payed when you hit a gutshot... hence the name gut shot... its like a shot in the guts - its disguised and people dont see it coming. The only time they dont call is if they have fuck all.
How is that Ssick_OnE guy better than LEX when he f**en bet & called all-in with a gut shot. Fishes do that on play money tables and not in 2K tourneys unless they are fishes too. Gut had 7 outs and got extremely lucky after that idiot call.
wow bro i opened the vid and couldn't bear even 1st 30 seconds with all these theatrics and voices,I mean for someone who's interested in poker this is too boring but might be workin maybe for larger scale of people than me so I'm just giving some feedback like more into the game and less into voices , mimics and jokes(might be only me).
for sure hand replays are good esp if the hands are played by good players,but i find tonka for example very more entertaining and funny ,but lex well...the guy's just a typical narcissist who tries to look cool to his followers.Def not to his bad if it works for him,plus that's just how it looks to me/my opinion .Especially if ppl love these mannerisms then my comments are out of topic.
