Brother you have come so far from plan two five! I love watching your videos because I feel like we were pretty equal when you started and watching where you've come from is exciting cuz I know I can get there as always thank you sir
On that last hand it was a mistake to go for the polarizing overbet on the river when you put your opponents most likely on a one pair hand because they are only calling if they have you beat. You could have got them for a 600-700 dollar value bet. You already had most of the table stung for a lot of money so going for the throat in this situation is a bad idea.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing when you put a big dent like that out there they're only going to call you if they have you beat also when you value that you also risk being raised sometimes it's better to check back other times value bed but you can't bet big there that's for sure you're just asking for trouble
Well, he didn't know 100% he was beat. He still had an overpair to a disconnected board plus the nut flush draw. Only against a flush is he a big dog here. Even if his opponent has two pairs or a set, he's got some decent equity in the pot. Then there is the matter of the meta game. If he folds AA here and his opponents realize he can be pushed so easily from a one pair hand then they are going to start abusing him. You have to draw a line and this was a good time to show he can't be bluffed.
This is a great video and I think you made the correct play 90% of the time! Take that money to the WSOP and make videos and hopefully win a bracelet! 😎👍
That last hand last bet was scary. I dont think you can get value with all in from any 10X hands or even over pairs. Flushed missed and your two pair now aren’t top two. I think the only hands that call are the one beating you like 10 7 of heart, may be some weird 6-7? Definitely can’t get call by worse taking such a strong line betting 3 street
The 65s hand where you flopped two pair. There was $1300 in the pot in the turn. I know you're supposed to bet smaller multi-way, but i agree that $525 was too small. Like you said, you had to fade the entire deck, but you probably had way the best equity. I'd go $800 maybe even $900. If they both fold 20% equity, that's a great outcome. If one folds, you clean up some outs. If they both call 🤷♀️ you got value while you "knew" you were ahead.
I like your blogs, Lex and appreciate your transparency. You have some great emotional control with poor swings. My criticism is that I think that you talk yourself into some terrible calls and play exceptionally loose. I've watched dozens of your videos so I feel like I have a decent sense of your style. You seem to really enjoy the high-variance route...
Hi Lex, I have been a subscriber and have been watching your videos since pretty close to when you started. Great job with your content. I’m just curious, you said in this video you rely on around 50% of your income from playing poker. Where does the other 50% come from? Thanks very much, and keep up the great work! Greg
I only watched the first two hands but I think you have to bet your aces on the 2nd hand...3 players the board's a little bit dangerous you can't let them draw for free at least half pot
Hey Lex, you mentioned that about half of your income comes from poker. Without getting into specific amounts, can you share where other income comes from? Thanks and really enjoy your content.
Hit flops,had monster hands pre flop and bet sizing was very good.some of these comments had to come from players who aren't close to playing at your level
2:20 i paused the video so i dont know what happened yet but how can you be confident he doesn't have 78 of clubs? Edit, i just watched the outcome and i would of been so pissed if i was that ghy. Sucked out on
Why every time the flop comes out you say the same thing, he could have a set he could have an over pair lol. Remember you said you’re not scared of monsters under the bed anymore lol
Knew u had to have another source of income because u started out grinding at 1,2 making 15 a hr.hard to support yourself on that unless you played 400 hrs a month
