I visited Jamil Casino because of your vlog. Best intro in poker vlogs. Straight to poker... You show your fold hands.. your commentary has just gone to another level since first two or three episodes. And you make a rec player like me feel included in the poker world.. and you keep teaching me mindset, process, and money management. I feel I can walk in with two hundred and leave with four hundred every time

[@tylermokarry9731]

I think TT is a great hand to Check back an A turn, You got your protection with flop bet by folding out the over cards like KQ, QJ, KJ; so now you can x back and bluff catch river/bet for value if x'd to, it's not really worth 3 streets of value imo and your only really betting to deny equity vs clubs and maybe get value from 99 or 8X which i don't think is that bad, but you leave yourself vulnerable to getting x/raised sometimes in which case you will prob have to fold bc you really only beat club draws and i think most club draws will bet flop as pfr on an A high flop

[@18000rpm]

FYI when you try to get an exact count in a multi-way all-in situation it gives away your hand somewhat in that you're likely on a draw. Not that it matters in this case since one player is all-in and the other has very little behind, but when you're playing really deep stacked games it's something to be aware of.

[@TerenceDTeves]

I haven’t played in a while but in my opinion, it’s not healthy getting your one and only bullet in a marginal hand with minimal direct odds specially out of position. I love how you play aggressively and can pull the trigger in tough spots. I know you can do so much better in tournaments or if you flip the switch and play with more discipline in ring games, you’ll do so much better :)

[@chriskahl6818]

That's an awesome win. I play at very similar stakes as you when I am able to play. It is always more exciting to see a player cash out for multiples of their buy in, than to see some of these vloggers who buy in for 5k and win 1k.

[@PokerBEAST]

I actually see that a lot and am also experiencing that at 2/5. Why buy in for 1000$ and win 300$ when I can buy in for $300 and win 300$

[@chriss1034]

For discussion sake, I think you should consider checking back the turn. If we give him a wide 3bet range for these stakes (88+ AJ+ KQs) you are only ahead AJ which folds, 99 and QQ which you get value from, and 2 combos of KQs. I would argue that you could push him off a chop. Probably really close on a bet or check, so I guess player profile will be a part of which line is best.

Nice fold with the suited ace. If you had a really short stack, it’s a terrible fold, but with the stack you had and running so well, there’s no reason to make that call. Nice play and nice video 👍🏼

[@pokerqAK47]

He got the odds to call. It’s a bad fold and the reason for the fold is bad too. “I have a good stack so I fold” 😂

[@mjriemen]

That is exactly opposite of what is correct. If you can win more on later streets you can call with speculative hands. If you can only win a little since your stack is short, you should wait until you have what you believe is the best hand.

[@eshootziscrs2868]

@@pokerqAK47 actually no he wasn't getting the odds to call. If he's facing a set of Qs for example it's very likely to be the Q of hearts which cancels an out. His A 10 is drawing to runners for a straight which is very low equity. The flush draw still loses if the board pairs which becomes somewhat more likely on the turn, adding an additional 3 cards that could pair. The flush itself might have 9 outs though probability does suggest a quarter of folded cards were hearts. The 9 outs have less than a 20% chance of hitting on the turn and if he only called the opponent and the hero both have money back. He could easily be facing another bet on the turn and again his odds are less than 20% meaning he needs 4:1 pot odds to be correct. Even adding the three Aces assuming you aren't against AQ or QQ the correct odds for a call are still 3:1. His shove insures he sees both cards and gets paid if called and he hits. Should he just call and then hit on the turn it's possible he doesn't make anymore on the hand. He is oop so if he leads it's pretty face up and many hands would fold. If he checks it could check through and then he has to fade a pairing river to feel confident he's ahead. Seeing both cards does give around 34% equity ( assuming 9 live outs). The pot is like $750 and hero has $800 behind needing to call about $350. He only has $450 back with a pot that will be $1,100. He gives his opponent close to 3:1 to make a call, very little fold equity in the shove really. Essentially hero is betting $800 to win the $763 plus the possible or probable call of an additional $465. $800 to win $1,208. He's really getting 1.5:1 and $300 plus is part of a three way pot though likely his flush beats both opponents it should still be a consideration when calculating odds. Is there enough in the side pot alone to warrant the call? He could fold, lose the $135 bet and play the $800. I'm of course assuming one villain has him covered but at the decision point the pot is $763 and hero is minimally invested. He doesn't win the $800 he already has he can only win the pot plus whatever he raises that gets called, another $450 in this case. $880 to win $1,208 with little fold equity and 34% probability to improve ( the Ace doesn't help if we are facing AK with the K of hearts or AQ ) . Blocking the Ace high flush draw it's unlikely we are against a worse flush draw, doesn't leave any real two pair combos and lessens the overpairs we might see. Starts looking like AQ trying to get rid of flushes or charge them too much, or QQ/88/22 that's ahead and wants the money in before a draw sees a card. It's a mistake to think a flush draw has the same odds on one card vs two. A call here is not getting the correct direct odds and since there really is only one likely draw the implied odds are greatly reduced. Top set should call a turned heart, sometimes a riveted heart but bottom set is nothing but a bluff catcher after this sized three bet. You should expect to sometimes see 88 or QQ from hero who leads and calls as well as the nut flushes or over pairs. Meaning 22 doesn't want to see a heart, an Ace or a K. Maybe not a J or 10 either since these make the most likely sets and improve most calls to a straight draw, pair etc. I personally suggest A 10 even suited not be a sb call. Too often you simply miss and just wasted blinds. Other times you hit and get action, play oop and are unable to maximize profit, run into a better kicker or A8 that flopped two pair. The flush is often obvious and people understand it's likely Ace high since it's from the sb, smaller flushes pot control or fold. Just some thoughts

[@eshootziscrs2868]

@@mjriemen I would suggest perhaps that isn't quite true. Deep stack you can play more speculative since implied odds are higher, like set mining, low suited connectors or in some cases slow playing monsters. A short stack however, depending on our definition of short, should not be hesitant to gamble. Starting with $100 or less in a $1/2 game for example, you cannot play AK, hit one pair and wait to see the river. If no one improves and you are sure you're ahead why would anyone call? Unless they have the same pair or second pair they can just fold. You win a small pot. But if they jam, did you under represent your hand? Did they slow play something bigger? Did the river a better hand? If you play say A 10 suited and hit a flush draw on this board you would probably want to jam and realize the equity. Get money in while people still have draws to improve and a reason to call. Wait until all the draws either get there or miss and you either can't call, don't get called or you are beat. Probably something to be said about position as well. At a very passive table with face up straight forward opponents you can speculate from any position provided your post flop play is profitable. But deep stack on an aggressive active table position becomes more and more profitable, sometimes first to bluff is good. Being in early position threatens to be a stronger range. All that and I do understand what you are saying. The A 10 is an ok call, three betting only bloats a pot and you can't really call a raise. I'd rather go for some pot control and deception with the flush draw, maybe consider folding to too much action since it's possible someone else has a flush draw. Takes away at least two outs giving me less chance of improving though getting paid might be easier. We could hope to be against KJ of hearts though KQ of hearts is also a likely hand that might play this way. It's most likely we are behind and it's not a great idea to put money in when we are behind unless we can sometimes get folds too. Dry board doesn't exactly hit the sb range all that much. Twos eight's and a few Qs, not exactly a big portion of our passive range. Most sets would probably check to the aggressor on this board. The story should not only make sense but be probable if we want folds. QQ isn't a probable story to tell by overshoving a three bet, not getting many folds from real hands for these odds. Seems better to check, call, see the turn cheaper and reevaluate moving forward. Interesting hand though I've paused it on the flop after hero considers a shove. On to see the outcome. Just some thoughts

[@mickeyzeher2881]

You’re telling me if you have the nut flush draw and your stack is down to something like 20BB, it would be bad to call because you should “wait for a better hand”???😂😂
