Your analysis and play on the AA hand with QQ6 is very impressive as a textbook example of thinking in ranges and combos. The recognition that there are only two plausible combo of hands that beat you QQ and AQdd v 6 hands of Kings (and maybe Jacks and 10s as well) with the ability to act on that info with bet on river to avoid a check back is top notch. I would not be surprised to see Jonathan Little or Upswing make this into a training video.

[@damonthomas2975]

This is why I continuously come back to Brad's channel. His play takes logic to the furthest degree and uses it to just consistently put his opponents in the trickiest situations. The other day I was watching Mariano's video where he got aces the first hand at HCL and OMG I lost my mind counting all the mistakes he made. Basically he did the opposite of what Brad would have done in each situation. I don't wanna make the guy out to be a god or something but he's the only vlogger that consistently makes the "right" play..or the most optimal move. I really enjoy watching him break down his logic and explain why he does what he does.

[@alfonsocalderon1311]

Been watching your videos for quite a bit now and everything I know about poker has come from you! Although I don't see myself playing more than once a year at the lowest stakes possible lol, I have been able to enjoy poker in virtual reality through a game called Vegas Infinite. It has become one if my favorite things to do when I find the time and I also roped my friend into playing with me weekly. Although no actual money is being gambled in the game, I thoroughly enjoy it regardless and your videos have helped me run some tables and win big hands. I'm grateful for all the content you put out not only for the knowledge of the game but also for the entertainment and vlog parts of it. Keep it up :)

[@xDMRmrkiller]

I've never laughed so hard at a poker vlogs. Believe me I've laughed before. But holy shit, when Brad said, "a similar situation, against the same opponents" it absolutely killed .e

Great lead jam in the first hand, and really well explained as to why you did. Thanks Brad

[@jarodmorris4408]

If that guy with the first hand had KK, I think he would have called faster thinking the chances of you having AA would be quite small.

[@LouisE-mp8lx]

Not just AA you lose to though, Brad could also be 4 betting with various queens that also beat KK

[@zero_zero107]

What else does he call an all in with anyway? Maybe JJ or TT? I certainly wouldn’t against Brad.

[@Nosirt]

Not really- because at that point, even if you have AA, it’s actually same as having KK, or JJ. Because pocket KK is not going to be betting like that one that board, nor JJ. So wether you have KK or JJ actualy makes no difference because you are only losing to AQ and AA either way. This is why effective range matters a lot- his KK is essentially no differnet from JJ or anyother pocket pair.

[@zero_zero107]

@@Nosirt you would call here with JJ same frequency as KK? Remember having JJ unblocks every combo of KK…

[@Nosirt]

@@zero_zero107 yes, but Brad is not going to jam with KK on the river. That’s what I’m saying. The hands KK to essentially any pairs are the same. So if you have JJ there, you never put Brad on KK even if that “beats” you- he’s never going to play KK like that so it doesn’t matter. This is why you’ll see some pros hero call with third pair when their opponent has a boat. It’s because the opponent is saying he has a boat or nothing since people don’t usually bluff with showdown value hands.
