Malaka$tyle is one of the best! Which pro do you guys think looks the toughest to play against?

[@lemmingbcn]

Adamo must be a real pain in the ass to play against.

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

@@lemmingbcn confirmed

[@barrylock2704]

I’d hate to play against Jamie Bobstein. Can never read him

[@Cplayer1]

I would say belabacsi

[@marvellkanmomixa1997]

In every highstakes mtt ive played I had the displeasure of usually being oop to CDarwin and nasty minder

[@BBZPoker]

I had a lot of fun working with you on this & you're doing a great job putting it altogether and making great videos!

[@idahogreen2885]

Pretty high praise lex. Coming from one of the youngest legends in the History of Men.

[@DTk5584]

I’m really digging how you show the hand “as played” then diving into the analysis. Never seen that before and I think it’s super helpful and a new non boring way of doing hand review. Keep it up dude

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

Thanks bro, :) I did think it would make it more immersive and visual

[@jackocal]

Loving the variety on this channel at the minute, keep it up Lex💪🏻

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

Awesome Jack, thanks. We're going to keep adding things

[@justinhaber3863]

This is amazing content! Your really raising the bar with these videos, there has to be a more powerful word then thank you! Just awesome! 😊

[@Cplayer1]

I forgot to say I love this new idea you came up with, i am literally going to watch your videos every day keep going 👍

Dont watch, you're killing my poker revenue

[@rando9574]

since i saw u 10 years ago or so in a live game on tv and you were raising every hand vs this same guy, and he kept folding - ive been a fan ! awesome

[@nintendokings]

Loving the new KZbin content. Merry Christmas, Lex

[@luoat7637]

I really love this series, coaching with BBZ. Even though at this stage of my life, I would love to get rid of my character as poker player, I enjoy playing and learning and crushing the field.

[@napo7756]

Hey lex, finally on KZbin! High quality content btw, keep it up, LFG!

Love the style of the vid... Thx to Lex and Jordan for this one 🙏

[@milkd.4206]

Thank you for these videos Lex and BBZ. I really enjoy them. Enjoy the holiday fellas.

[@BBZPoker]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@anthony6058-d7m]

I'm enjoying all these new videos your putting out I'm watching all of them

[@thebarrybarry]

How good is bbz !! The way he can so effortlessly see the ranges and what combos are doing what on each street . I picture him analysing hands like one of those child prodigies spinning a rubic cube side by side into submission, and it’s just solved . Another great video boys 🙏

[@BBZPoker]

That's very flattering and more generous than I deserve but thank you very much!

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

He has such an insane amount of at-hand knowledge

[@thebarrybarry]

@@BBZPoker this is probably what keeps you at the top , your humble enough to treat every day as a learning day . Sorry for the cringe and happy Xmas chief .

[@janpiet9921]

For impressive players, tinnoemulder comes to mind. Every time I've seen you run deep in something big on stream he was still in it as well (not good enough to judge high stakes players game wise but results wise I've noticed him most).

[@casinokam2695]

Futti18 is another that comes to mind

[@expresso99]

The BBZ hand analysis goes so deep. Really enjoyed it, thanks Lex. 😎

[@sk8rdaniel]

Great analysis and really broadened my level of analysis. I don't even play much poker these days but I like to learn.

[@saavy4113]

Great content lex❤️ Learning a lot new things from u , one trick In which u said raise 9 bigs if u have 10 ..don't jam , u'll get much more fold equity I tried it yesterday 3-4 times 🤣🤣 really works

[@crazzerss]

Youre my fav european player loved you on the big game. Keep it up

[@rodneyswinney3920]

Love these videos keep them coming

[@anthonychambers9776]

Thank you Lex and BBZ, been watching along time. At a weird transition in my game, uh understand what I need to do is mental, as to playing. Not listening to my gut ie whether to check bet reraise 3bet. Was out of tge swing for 3 or 4 months feel like my mentals went away. What to in in diff spots, before I would be more rapid alot quicker with decision making. Just wonder what you think might help? Always a pleasure.... Started with you in your young days TBG

[@BBZPoker]

For me speed and precise execution come with confidence. Confidence comes from knowing what to do. Knowing what to do comes from studying. You can fake it to someone else but you can't lie to yourself at the table. If you don't know what to do you'll hesitate and lose conviction and make mistakes.

[@numonjonismoilov9365]

Great format! Keep it goin✌️

[@Edkey]

Great coach indeed, he gives you great teachings BBC

[@dengavrin1026]

Amazing content! TY Lex and Jordan! Legends!

[@BBZPoker]

Thank you!

[@marktholens3133]

When @bbz told you the check on the River will tell you he has not a 9, that’s the moment I was mind blown. I thought how played on turn the check was the way to play. Thanks again

[@ryannealon1819]

I didn't hear K6 dd mentioned, which would love a big bet on the flop and check turn to realize equity on the river?

[@PUPPAXDD]

Merry christmas lex!

[@fateindustry]

That was crazy... I actually guessed exactly $20k was going to be what I thought you were going bet at 1:36. 😬

[@janpiet9921]

In the second hand, you guys mentioned that you have a lot of hands like A8, but why is that a better call than KQ? As you mentioned, he should never take this line with worse for value and I doubt you lose to any bluffs with KQ there. Or do you think you have enough flushes that you can just call flushes and fold strong queens and middling aces? Would be interesting to hear what to call there and why.

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

I just have enough Ax to call with, so adding KQ just makes me call too often. Also Ax blocks his valueshoving combos, whereas KQ doesn't. He's never going allin with a Q over my bet

[@janpiet9921]

@@LexVeldhuisTV Yeah that makes sense, blocking boats. Is that also a better blocker than the king of diamonds for example. Or is just any hand with a relevant blocker a call here?

[@colinbrash]

So for hand 1 I get the river is a bet, but you didn’t talk at all about what to do against a raise on the river… which seems important to evaluate if you think a bet is good??

[@Ths_1]

Hi Lex! I have just started my journey, aiming to invest time in poker long term. Right now I am play a lot of 9 player sit & gos. I am worried I am incorporating your style for long tourneys to this different format. Any things to keep in mind for these type of 1 table tourneys or do you approach them the same?

[@gazzy5303]

Lex who’s the toughest opponent or a tough opponent that springs to mind you’ve played live and for what reason?

Why do you block A4 with your QK ? Thanks for great content Lex !

[@bartkobben]

He was discussing it hypothetically if he had a hand like A8hh, with which he would be blocking A4.

Lex I really, really enjoy your vids. I watch poker since back in the day. I know you since 2009 through poker after dark etc... sadly I am a german player, we will not get any stars rewards from 10th of january. I am a fun player these days but there is no sence for me to continue. Its very sad.

Good shit lex!!!

[@johnrupesh4535]

The check on the turn was hella confusing by malakastyle on the turn. Good fold in the end.

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

he'll balance it though, especially with this stack to pot ratio

[@DavidElGnome]

Juan is a beast

[@jussiraikkala1482]

When you multitable, you really don't have the time to think all these through. What do you base your decisions then? Is it theory, gut-feeling, million hands experience? I think that the studying and history that you have in poker, your gut-feeling is the correct one on most situations. Because all the theory, education and experience make that gut-feeling.

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

I think the more yuou do this work the better and quicker your in-game instincts become. Because for sure I'm not thinking about this much detail, but repeatedly reminding yourself where the raisers off-suit raising range is dense around is very very repetitive and helpful

[@jussiraikkala1482]

@@LexVeldhuisTV Daniel Kahneman's book Thinking Fast and Slow talks about this. Often your gut-feeling is right. And if you overthink the situation and change from your gut-feeling, you probably go wrong

[@jussiraikkala1482]

And we are talking about the same thing. I'm not saying that you can stop studying and just go by your instincts. I'm saying that the more you work and study, the better are your instincts and your first analysis of the situation is the correct one. And therefore you can multitable, because you don't have to think so much.

[@dihillen]

I believe i dare to say i disagree with this analyses. Just because i play a certain style as a bigstack that i believe he is doing too. For me as a bigstack especially bl vs bl wen ranges are weakish i tend to exploit gto players and only go for big pots 20/30bb or higher(because there is where the payoff as a bigstack is)where the gto player overconsiders ranges imo. Because consider your opponents preflop play,does he 3x with any broadway with a diamond? And does he bigbet the flop to put weak aces in a tough passive spot?and would'nt you bet at least 50% pot at the river for value if you had an ace yourself.... From his point of view,if he loses 50bb from his 200bb stack it does'nt harm much...but the 20/30bb add on is huge for a bluff like J10 with a diamond or Q10/K10/KJ...because he played it big,he can rep more aces and flushes than you do.

[@naantjez]

Was waiting for this!

[@leechecksfield7882]

I love u lex but in the second hand you should be leading the turn 0% I don’t know why we are even discussing leading the turn when the ace pairs after a pot size bet on the flop, and the river leading range should also be 0% with the hand we have ☹️

Not convinced the coaching helps lex. Your a great player with a lot more experience than Jordan. Jordan doesn't have the results you have. No offence but Jordan reminds me of Jamie Oliver great at talking about food but the end result doesn't taste the best. Respect your decisions lex
