I Won Over $50,000 for the BIGGEST WIN OF MY LIFE! | Poker Vlog  

0:45: Great slowplay with KK given positions and stack sizes: I think if you jam you don't give villain opportunity to bluff ALSO KK is technically an occasional flat even against a 3-bet, let alone a 4-bet. On the flop, super important not to raise here so we can protect our range from barrels later on, but when the turn brings in the second flush draw this becomes a jam--at such low SPRs, playing to deny equity is more important than anything else. Def running good to make all of the technical reasons to trap come together in this example. 4:52: Standard monkey-in-the-middle on the flop, made even BETTER by the fact Phil is playing so passively pre-flop and can have a bunch of pretty strong hands (AQss?!?). The flop squeeze is great since Turbo has got to be ultra-capped, and having him call preflop probably implies he's got a Q or T which reduces the amount of QQ/TT/QTs from Phil's tight flatting range. Also, having the Js is probably good backup allowing you to bluff spades on future streets. I DO think that this combo should give up on blank rivers but KJ without a spade should jam river to unblock spades, BUT you shouldn't KJo without a spade as often on the top. Very well played. 10:46: After a bet from Phil on a HORRIBLE board and then a raise from Turbo, we have no reason to raise K3dd, I think that will just tip everyone off to you having a nutted hand and there aren't THAT many bluffs in your range here, and it's also likely that you don't need a re-raise range here. Flat is great, and on the turn it's a mandatory check (instead of lead) for the same reasons--you don't really need a flop 3-bet or turn lead against this action multiway on a monotone board. Have the 3d is very sexy here, however, and does increase the likelihood you'll cooler someone. On the river, I think betting 50% probably can represent some air hands, but it's just very unlikely you're going to get much action from worse betting particularly large, though it IS possible the raiser got scared with a low flush after both players called his raise and he wanted to slow the action down, a story that having the 3D really assists with. Overall I think the river bet is a tad large against the hands you're trying to make indifferent (which should be the hands they ended up with aka sets), and the SB call might be a tad loose, BUT we know that multiway we prefer having 5x 4x 3x 2x hands, so in theory this can't be bad if you think you've got talent edges over any of the players. Really proud of the work you've put in and your trust in the process. Seeing where you choose to put on the gas versus where you lay very sneaky traps shows a lot of growth in your understanding and execution.

Congrats Wolf…well-deserved, you’ve definitely put in the work! Congrats on the card house business venture as well…

I stumbled upon your channel about two months ago and I've watched every single one of your videos since then, and just now recently caught up - very entertaining! love from Norway! ❤

6:45 “BANGG” missed opportunity

Its been amazing watching you grow as a poker player!

Donking the turn with the flopped flush is the optimal play in my opinion

Love to see it! Great narrating

Thanks for coming!!! Sad Phil Laak lost. 😢😢😢

I think for the flopped flush, you’re only going to get the most value is if you raised on the flop. The turn doesn’t change anything unless the board pairs and you have 1 less card for your opponents to pair up. That was a hell of a heater

Makes me so happy to see you playing these big games and crushing ❤️

I really appreciate the redacted stamps for livestreams as someone who watches your videos to improve my game. I know some people might like it and some might not but it's entertaining and helpful to be able to watch a livestream without being able to see the other hands. Just some feedback from a viewer.

Bang, what a weekend... I played all 3 casinos this weekend, Alex. I'm talking with GLC to see about a home game this summer. Hope you're up for it...

MY G!! This is THE BEST CONTENT!! It's QUICK, VERY informative without all the slowed down analysis like Rampage and Brad videos. THIS IS WAY WAY BETTER CONTENT!!! BANG!!! Keep it UP MY DUDE!!!

A lot of times in those spots with a hand like your flush out of position I’ll flat then lead the turn on a good card- there is no real good solver data for that situation but my logic is that raising will fold out most of the non nut flushes and if you lead like 40% pot you can actually get jammed on by hands you beat. Live poker is tricky though.

Congrats 🎉for all the good news. Well deserved from my perspective.

Damn son! Thats an awesome win, Wolf! Been watching for a while, my man, great to see you doing well, reaping the rewards of your hard work. Best of luck on The Fort venture, sir!

Hi Wolfgang! Loving the content (especially the Short clips). Having the King-high flush with so much action in front of you would definitely make me pause before getting too aggressive. Obviously sets make a lot of sense, but people love suited aces. I'd be a little nervous that I was behind given the action. Wouldn't donk-lead the turn so I could get more information first. I'm definitely betting the river though like you. I might've opted for about 1/3 pot to get called by slightly weaker hands, but overall I really liked the way you played the hand. Great session. What a win! Congrats man!

Good to see Wolfgang in the green. Don't go crazy like Rampage and play super high stakes

Congrats ur a very humble guy u deserve it

I expected a BANG! with that top set flop at 6:35

thats why you should start mixing in fast plays on monotone boards with made flushes and nut flush blocker

What a performance Wolf ! Best video I’ve seen on the channel !

Wolfgang you played like a gangster!!! Nice one!

Nice to see your poker career taking off. Guess no more 1/2 for you!. When can we see you at Hustlers game buying in for 100k? Good stuff, congrats 👏🏿

You’re like the Jeffersons man, keeps loving on up!

Videos should be longer it’s never enough 😂

Nice win!!! I think you have to bet somewhat big on your king high flush. To see where you are. If someone has the ace high flush, then you just chalk it up. Someone has to have a set at the least.

Congratulations on a great 50K two-day run! Hope you keep running good!

When you flop the second nut flush you raise half pot on the turn to get any sets to call or raise, then ship it accordingly

The K3 diamonds hand was difficult to play. I’d say it’s player dependent, as tough as Phil is you may have to 3 bet flop and Bet turn. Obv that’s the play when you see their cards. Overpair with Ad probably bets turn.

Congrats my friend. Well earned, couldn't think of a more deserving guy!

all i’m thinking is vegas and the mirage 😏 love it haha

U ran great , crazy bluff with 22s at the end, great read on his hand, Idk if I could have pulled it off cause I would put him on AQ, AK, but u was right and u good a good hand to fold

also hand that 4 way that you flopped top set, betting small was definitely the way you should go. When youre multi way otf solvers are always going to want you betting small. Must have been amazing winning such a big pot vs your hero

Definitely running good but you played all of the hands really well. Except the K3♦️ lol.

Definitely would’ve donked turn can can be raising often with just the ace of diamonds and check back when called in 3 spots

Definitely raising flop was the optimal play then small lead on turn to get max value 14:12

in that k3 suited flopped flush if someone bets you always raise the pot, every time

As an amateur poker player, if I would’ve flopped a king high flush, I would’ve definitely bet hard on the flop to get hands with sets to come along for the ride. Basically, you know if the board pairs on the turn or the river, you’re sunk.

Love your vlog! Though, I like your graphics better than these streamed ones from the card houses--the card graphics are too small to see on my phone's screen. 😢

So cool to watch how far you’ve come since your 1/2 days. For the king high flush hand, I would raise the flop small. Something like 2.5X the bet. Anyone with the naked A♦︎ would call. Then I’d bet 40% on turn and rip it on any non board pairing or diamond river. That’s my two cents.

You get an amazing dream sun run spot after all the run good you have had in these sessions and still managed to fuck up the hand by not raising the flop with k3 dd .

Dam good nights bro! Love the videos

Great job young man👍🏻

Hindsight is 20/20 of course, but I think it makes more sense to raise the flop with your made flush. The problem is, as you said in the narration, your overcall there is very strong in its own right. What hands would you do that with? Probably just what you have. If you raise there I think it disguises your hand more (you could do that with a queen and ace of diamonds, for example), and it puts you in position to make a bet on the turn when a blank comes instead of feeling like you have to check. The worst thing there is to give a free card on the turn.

Ohhh man, you would've made a killing against the two sets buuuuutttttt it could've easily gone the wrong way, and the board could've paired. You've arrived where you are playing the way you do, so if you're successful in your style, then play it your way, bro! Congratulations on the win! Hope to get some of your run good on my sessions!

Love it when you block opponents cards

Yes poker is really fun when you keep hitting the cards you want. 😅

I think you played the flush correctly. Pretty hard spot tbh. I may have continued checking and tried to get someone else to take the betting lead and then raise for value.

13:58, I think in the long run betting the flop is good because they'll probably call hoping for a board pair and then put you on missed flush draw thinking you have one diamond once you check the turn.

I think you played that flopped flush well. Possibly a smaller bet on the river could’ve gotten the two players with flopped sets to raise but profit is still profit so gg.

when he flipped that 7 5 of hearts against the kings i got flashbacks lmao always seems to be the case with me when ppl raise my premiums and have weak hands they always seem to flop some stupid draw to beat me

Dude, you're on fire! There may be next level for some, but you're already way beyond my ability. It's been so fun watching your journey, and I get the sense that you're not only a good guy, but a hard worker. I think you have a world-class disposition for poker! Blessings abound. Well done.

Kd3d flush, donk smallish block bet turn if get raised, reevaluate. Nobody raised u on turn, with that river, lead out whatever. You're still certain you have the nuts. But if scare card river - non A diamond or pair, check - reevaluate.

I would have play it exactly the same as u did, but ofc, im not playing against legend him self. I belive i would have stuck off my homies from local games if they would have sets on flop. Anyway, great content, as allways. Greetings from Czech republic !

That hand w 22 was so good

This actually happens a lot more than you think - tons of action on the flop, then the turn checks thru. You almost have to donk-lead the turn yourself in that spot. It sucks, but that's what happens when you're OOP, you just don't have great options. You might as well turn your hand face up at that point, and just say you're betting until and unless the board pairs or another diamond hits the board.

Phil Laak?!!!!! My favourite poker player. The nicest guy in poker.

Tough spot with the flush, played fine

Also I think a lot of players are telling on themselves that they fastplay too much rather than give villains room to bluff, especially on wet boards, even after seeing someone punt into your set the first hand. 😂

Absolutely you lead the turn with that flush! Given the action, at least one player has a set here and is never folding. That means that nobody is going to bluff with just the Ace. So you can bet, knowing you're only getting raised by the made nut flush and get the set(s) to put more money in; and if someone's else has a smaller made flush you also get all their money.

I think im betting smaller on that K high flush river. You would probably get a crying call from one of the sets.

Bring all the vloggers buddies to your new club card house to support you in a home game

You’re by far the best poker RU-vidr all time

Your best chance to make money vs sets, 2 pair, and A◇ were on flop and turn. One player will almost always have a set or A◇ 5 ways. You have to go for value in these multi way pots especially when all 5 players are calling bet on flop.

wow good job! that is awesome!

It's always easy to second guess if you're not at the table, and it's not your thousands of dollars on the line. It's especially easy if you can see the other player's cards. I think you played with some bravado, and some caution. You did well against high caliber opposition. That's pretty good in my book.

last hand check is totally fine just sucks everyone checked back which they definetly wouldnt do with a high frequency.

Donking in turn would be better in my opinion, the cold call in flop out of position is almost indicating you got a flush, especially the other 2 players who hold the sets.

You played the flush great, no way you could have known two sets were gonna fold. If anything i would've tried to get into Phil's head to see what he was thinking. Congratulations on the hands with Phil!

Love to see it!!!

Just game feel, but I think if I flat the flop with 2nd nut flush I think leading Turn after a safe card comes out is the route I'd go. Because you're out of position, checking is fine too if you expect someone may bet, but these guys are a bit too good. They're not likely to see your flop-flat as anything but a flush of some level and won't open Turn for you. Maybe put in like 5-6k here and see if a set will boat-mine. I don't expect you left the full ~28k on the table as you said, but might've left a smaller chunk of it behind and/or gotten to win the same amount without the river possible swinging the pot to someone else.

Bro running hotttt...Let's goooo

yea u did the right thing counting on would of should of lol take the pot nice run but congrads on ur new card room

I don't feel too bad about your play on that second nut flush hand (KD-3D). Considering Phil and Tan had second and bottom trips respectively, they both couldn't overplay their hands. A flop bet absolutely shouts either QQ or mid-flush, and I can't imagine Tan hanging around for that. If it wasn't four deep, one of them might have gotten aggressive to get rid of like an AK, KQ or AQ offsuit with a diamond. Maybe if you'd dropped the bet sizing on the river, you might have hooked somebody, but the situation wasn't there. You could have taken a flyer on a mid-sized flop bet (40% Pot or so) and see if you could have convinced Jet or Turbo to lay it down - the open space might have gotten you more action from Phil, but most likely wouldn't have changed the outcomes, just the timing.

You made the right call

With the K high flush I would raise on the flop and punish Turbo if he has a baby flush or chasing with the A of diamonds. If anyone has a set they would also chase for a boat. Can’t let them get to the river for free.

I like the call on the flop in the K3d hand. With all that action though, you're up against at least 1 set, maybe a naked Ad, and maybe a lower flush. There aren't too many 2pr hands there. The 9c is as blank as it gets, but sets have decent equity against flushes, so figuring at least one person has that, I'd look for about a half pot size donk on the turn. Opponents know the 9c didn't improve you, and will put you on a flush, but 3-1 is decent odds for them to call with plenty behind for a set to get should it improve. KQ is getting out on the turn, almost certainly. As it stands, they obviously had you on a flush if they both folded sets on the river, so the value is definitely in donking turn after it doesn't pair the board.

Wow what a great heater Wolfgang but given how hot you were it seems more crazy that Laak & Tan were able to lay down their flopped sets (6,2) vs your flopped flush hand !!! ;-//? It was tough decision not to raise but I feel I would have proceeded the same way you did in that hand. And the chances you ever run across to flopped set folds again on a board like that in your life would be slim to nil!!!

Well done my friend

Personally on Hand 48, I would have flat called on the river. As there are a lot of one pairs that would have straight up folded as there is a flush out there leaving them to draw dead. It will be hard to put both of them on sets before seeing them call as you was the one to call first out of the 3. However I think a c bet would be better on the turn as you essentially have the nuts. (essentially as there is low chance of anyone having A high flush) The c bet would induce a bluff and also add additional money into the middle. Personally I don’t think a set is going to fold to a c bet. In the river, checking is a risky play as others could check behind leading into showdown which wouldn’t have done anything much as you would essentially think you have the nuts. I would say it is smarter going for a pot size bet or an overbet as this would be what you have done as a bluff. This would help paint a picture for future hands as well. Although they didn’t call and you can’t get maximum value, it would help paint a picture for your future bluffs and etc. I hope this helps. I am not a poker expert nor I am good or I think I am better. I am just sharing my thoughts hoping it would help you. Also helping myself gain experience if someone explains an error in my thinking. I like to watch you and learn as well. Because of watching you continuously, I have seen myself progressively improving as a small poker player. So I am thankful and hope my thought process could also benefit you.

Fast play the flush is hard or a donk out on the turn

What a fxcking two day run, was fun can’t wait to have you back on

Can’t wait to watch😁✌️

Lets gooooo congrats

Hi Alex! Pura Vida from Costa Rica!

35 hundred would have been a nice squeez on the K3 flush hand!!

I would of donked the turn and slowed down on the river if a diamond or if the board pairs

Not a bad week Wolfie!

Raise the turn with the flush

3:35 bro on the left reading a book

Your karma is gold! Love you bro

On 🔥!!!!

How do they both check a set on a monotone board with that blank turn.

K high flush: donk the turn for $5K

You forgot to Bang the screen with set of 9s lol

Bro……. talk about a Sun Run. I dream of running like this

You should just check with flush with king high 😂

How do you pay attention to everyone at the table so quickly? It seems like the game goes so fast and I really don’t know how you are able to pay attention to everyone figuring out if they have anything good or not. Maybe give me some practice tips on speeding up my game or maybe it’s just something you get in time.

id prob bet on the turn light to see where im at
