DO NOT make this MISTAKE at the POKER table!! // Poker Vlog

Playing $5/10 @ Harrahs

[@adcscooter4517]

The audible sigh is always the nuts. Great fold in that spot.

[@nategordon8127]

Always lol

[@Firefighter3935]

Reverse tells

[@PhilipJReed-db3zc]

Telling him about his tell might be +EV for vloggers. The rest of us should avoid it.

[@depalma13]

Except it wasn't in this case.

[@nategordon8127]

@@depalma13 effective nuts he should never have kk sometimes he will have jj but would usually 3 bet that as well so he has kj or a single jack which is pretty much the nuts.

[@goonable2]

Lex, this is the most honest and eye-opening (and watering) poker video I've seen in a while. None of the melodramatic B.S. you get from the other channels. Just straight-up & straight-forward thinking through each hand and the rationale behind each move. THIS is how you learn to become a better player! Keep up the great videos. You are a fantastic player and everyone of us have gone through the same benders. Cheers!

[@perrycd]

The sigh - raise is the most reliable tell in live poker. Snap fold aces on the JJK board.

[@BrianDouglas-r2h]

Crazy amounts of pocket pairs. Excellent VLOGGER Lex. Your speed of speaking and explaining is just perfect

[@michaelkurtz4447]

One of the more realistic poker videos. Thanks.

[@ludwig77]

#199....allow me to be the first to congratulate you on 200 vlogs! Congratulations Lex!!!!

[@Kalster1]

Great video, thx. I am very surprised when you checked on the river when you made a flush with 7-10 of clubs. In my experience when the river gets there and changes the nut hand most aggressors will check back.

[@lucashood9265]

Been playing with those pros to much. That A 10 was a quick fold everytime

[@niftysin]

Great tell on that first hand! Not easy folding aces. But noticing that tell was a class act action!!!

[@mikewilliams3509]

I literally told my girl you should never sigh then raise and she even said yea it's obvious he has a jack there and she doesn't play poker at all lol

[@dangnguyenhai8971]

I cannot see how it’s not easy folding aces here. 1st: poker live is under bluff, and reraise on the river even makes it much more under bluff here 2nd: if they wanted to bluff, they would start on the turn. Check call flop and turn then reraise on the river is completely trips or better. 3rd: bluffs here maybe include AQ or Q10 for gutshot draw with 1 spade but Aces block so many combo. Easy fold? Yep too easy

[@bomblade15]

I watch quite a few of these vlogs from various people. It amazes me how many hands they hit. They seem to play 8 hours or much less and hit more sets than I hit in 40 hours.

[@powertruth0776]

Well that’s all they show you really… it’s like watching WSOP .. you only real see the brutal hands b.u.t. In actuality they have played for 10 hours and folded 1000 hands

[@bomblade15]

@powertruth0776 I know most of them only show interesting hands. But they still show several sets that they hit every session.

[@KillerDiaguR]

I thought the same thing These dudes are life rungoods

[@marksimpson2321]

I resubbed after a break. Very good quality vlog with your rationale each decision and no bs

[@geoffreybond7447]

HONEST SELF ANALYSIS re the ‘winners tilt’ and entitlement etc Lex!! So real dude. ❤

[@TheImpracticalGamer]

1:52 You beat stuff like AQo with the Ace of spades but old guys minclicking is never a bluff. Good laydown

[@traviscoates6878]

I’ve been experiencing winner’s tilt a lot lately as well, minus the winning however...

[@seanwaltrip5235]

Good content Lex. I like your after action reviews of your play. Definitely can learn from your mistakes.

[@mumblesbadly7708]

Lex, you gave a GREAT description of “winner’s tilt”!!!

[@robertsherman8482]

The sigh raise is always the nuts

[@lw4164]

One more thing…when listening to the action pre, I was thinking a big 3 bet is prob best. Going multiway oop w KQois a recipe for disaster. Personally I would 3bet big pre and go from there. Gotta thin the field in this spot

[@captaintrips6115]

You put out a lot of great content, thank you. Yeah, first hand was an easy fold with A-A on the river with the sigh raise. Actually not sure about the $500 bet itself….

[@roryvonbrutt7302]

I always really liked that poker room❗️ with the bar, the high ceiling, and the track out front. Glad to see it's hopping‼️®️™️ ""great vlog by the way""

[@Fatpigkenny]

I just had a big losing session….this vid is giving me PTSD

[@craigerc713]

Haha

[@artstudio6610]

How much? $200 playing 1-2 nlh probably lol😅

[@bilyonarelifestile2226]

u called multiple big bets with multiple opponents with TPGK … SPEW

[@stephens2272]

I've been stuck my whole life. I live in ptsd

[@jsh0822]

Trivial fold, multiway I think it's extremely optimistic to get 3 streets of value with Aces on any broadway paired board.

[@alwoolum7395]

Good video. I've experienced "winner's tilt" but never had a name for it. It's not just variance but variance with ego & the expectation of winning.

[@workout868join8]

It’s called being up-stuck. Being up $1000 then losing back a few hundo. That’s getting up-stuck

[@tlea31]

Hi Lex. He does have some bluffs here, AQ with the As or AT with the As. Something like QT with the Qs is also possible. Or to be really gangsta TT or even QQ (with a spade) which he now realises is no good. I am not sure whether these players will turn QQ into a bluff. As far as value, he is repping really only KJ for a flopped boat or the turned nut flush with something like ATs. Wouldnt he check raise all in on the turn tho? Dicey slow playing a flush on a paired board, what if the board double pairs or a fourth spade comes out. Similarly, I am discounting him having any Jx. Those hands should always be check raising flop with a flush draw out there. As far as hands you have to call down with, AA without a spade is kind of so so. You have some AK here which would play this way, mayb AK is a better call down due to slightly blocking KJ. You also have some AJ here for trips top kicker which would play the same way, as well as some flushes and boats yourself. All in all, mayb going for 3 streets with AA was a bit thin and you should fold once raised. On the other hand, like I said his line just doesn't add up, he is repping very narrow of KJ or the nut flush. Its a real coin flip. I am going to go with... call.

[@tlea31]

Omg just saw his hand wow did not expect that at all. Omg like, is JT even a raise there?! Its very thin. What is he hoping to get called by? Basically AA or AK. He still loses to full houses, flushes and better trips. You could easily be sitting there with AJ. Wow to x/r JT on the river.... I don't like it. I think his reaction was authentic, like he knew he was most likely beat but was pot committed. Very interesting hand Lex.

[@leviwhatever6192]

I love the brutal honesty.

[@pillcosby6569]

That A10 hand really shows how much you have lvl ed up. A good player would fold. Those hands can only make you a stronger player. Nice vlog man

[@cbasslobbys379]

“Frickin $1500 “😂

[@r77oliver]

Not the kind of video I wanted to see before going out of town on a poker trip, but maybe it's the one I need seeing as I've booked wins my last 3 sessions? I definitely need to find a spot to sigh/min raise river bluff judging by the comments lol.

[@GeorgeLadopoulos-dz7iu]

You didnt fold enough,you be surprise how much you can save by folding,pocket 8s easy fold,Aces easy fold,comon now you know the game

[@jkpln]

winners tilt so real, had that in a session last night. especially in one night

[@mr.sizexi510]

Pro tip Lex: Once you go down that much and fight your way back to get back in the profit and it’s past 1am it’s time to go home. The game is never that good.

[@catak74]

Lex, Love the Vlog..Can you recommend any good resources or training site for 1/2 strategy? Thank you

[@kaceydillin7367]

Hi. I have never played at a casino. At 19:58 the guy with quads gave you 2 black $100 chips after showing the quads. Is this some sort of etiquette thing to do when he has a monster hand for the loser for going to show down? I plan to start playing in casinos soon so I ask because I wanna make sure I am a good player and follow all the etiquette type stuff. Thanks!

[@mattstieg5388]

The guy raised 800 and Lex called with a a 1k chip. Opp gave him change before dealer got to it.

[@kaceydillin7367]

@@mattstieg5388 oh ok. Thanks for clearing that up!

[@sammajdi2931]

Just came back from Vegas, exactly same hand , I had pocket aces, same raise, 3 clubs on board At turn, river was heart, he went all in, after 2 minutes I showed him my aces and fold. I asked him to show me his cars, he said NO !! Later I saw him outside the poker room and asked him about that, he said good fold.. king & queen of clubs.. I lost so much $$ but saved lots of $$ by folding aces..😢😢

[@mattjharlan]

Lex buddy Rip the turn with 10♣️ 7 ♣️ especially if you’re stuck. Of course the times you do it’s a case of “to many outs” lol. Still lot of equity!

[@pot_kivach160]

15:53 what a fish! He snap called all-in. (with a pair of QQ).

[@oshriecohen7482]

Thanks you very much. I think A5 was in the range and even if not I think you should fold after the turn raise. Please continue to upload so nice videos to improve our game play.

[@rockonufa02]

The sigh** raise is most likely a very strong hand, don’t blame you for folding aces there, I would of folded too

[@kirkbitu2985]

Enjoy the hand reads. Nice to hear thought process

[@moriorinvictus]

Most honest vlog on YT. This was a poor session by any standard.

[@chunckyfreshnut]

Do bluff work at smaller tables 1,3?

[@sundevilsteve]

Great video dude! Thanks 4 posting it....

[@ericmendoza8474]

Lex I know it hurts to lose with aces….As much as it does, thanks for showing the Ls you take because you are definitely one of the only ones that really shows it all big wins big losses…..You’re still a great player bud keep it up cause I know you will definitely win

[@churchofthedrillers9276]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts

[@TheWillieg1]

Thanks for the advice.

[@MrMattss]

Nice video, I think vs the A5 you can fold turn or river, greetings from Austria ❤

[@labdwakin]

tricky tricky play with the A5... thing about it is that you have to hit for it to pay off and it's expensive if you miss... I wouldn't second-guess myself too much over that hand... he probably would have gotten me to call too

[@1193mac]

Truely it does make one feel better to know it doesn't just happen to them. Good luck in the future!!

[@sethley2335]

Love you Lex O!!!!!!! But KQ hand was a very obvious punt :(

[@lagrubscene418]

Try and convince me that running it twice is not stupid and a waste of time.

[@lagrubscene418]

I won't try, because it is stupid and a waste of time. Don't forget nerdy, geeky and geeky and nerdy

[@powertruth0776]

Man I hate when I flip quads or the nuts and get no action 😂

[@thurgoodjenkins4311]

What is the kill button?

[@malcolmale9772]

Great video glad you showed loosing hands it helps

[@scottoshea9440]

In the first hand, the fact he raised on the river is pretty telling, but the size of the raise screams that he has a boat, and the audible sigh before said raise says exactly that he has KK or JJ imo.

[@loganlasvegas]

Like your transparency. Not best plays, but honest.

[@luishenriquez8824]

Aww man sorry you went through such a rough game.

[@MecheGT]

You wanna hit another qaud 😅😅😅 I can't wait to play you at hardrock

[@pettis14]

As a pro playing with a great group of guys how much of a kickback is required to the game runner(s)?

[@therealbinarymaster]

Love your vlogs, but this definitely was one we won't re visit!! 😉

[@davidkrafsig195]

Before he shows A5 clubs, I guessed A5 spades. A/5 of spades is the likeliest bluff turn raise. A/5 clubs is a stupid bluff raise on the turn that got super lucky. A/5 spades is an excellent semi-bluff raise on the turn.

[@edwinguerrero8138]

Why not lead river with t7 cc hand?

[@Racing_Tendencies]

Amazing content as always

[@andyburden4571]

Dang, those slot machines must be tight not a single person playing, good luck.

[@ericnerenberg7064]

Good message, I needed that. GL friend

[@AndreGaneme]

Always learning from you! I like to play online and with friends. I consider myself ok when it comes to know the game and how to play. I would like to go to a casino here in South Florida (I live in Boca) for a $200 max buy in $1/$2. Where do you suggest?

[@therealbinarymaster]

Oxford in Orlando area isn't bad

[@CleanMoneyLLC]

I want to just follow u around to the games your in WOW these vlogs can’t make enough for u to play this bad 😂 or can they 😆 I def want invited to play with u any game any stakes

[@Dmatafonov23874]

Call raise on the flop with just a pair and no redraw is usually bad idea. As you see, even bluff has plenty of equity and if you are againt value - two pairs or set, you almost drawing dead

[@nicetele735]

. .Your self- sanyasis portion was excellent .

[@kirkbitu2985]

I need to start showing cards to camera. Im always curious what i had … lol

[@Kelavis]

A5 came to mind… crazy that person made it to the river…

[@Boxman911]

Calling with the pocket aces on the river would be a crying call for sure,,,, I would reluctantly fold

[@faismasterx]

With the AA hand river isn't a bet-fold, it's a check-call.

[@NV-ME]

Is anyone else sick of the WSOP thrill team ads. WSOP is really picking from the bottom of poker "celebrities".

[@brandonsmitb8905]

Yeah Ace 5 was the first and only hand that came to mind when you made that bad call with King Queen and a queen eye board

[@justanbaker8937]

Lex the king queen is a fold on the flop. You are beating yourself

[@GetRichorDieScratching]

Good river fold. That acting job was terrible on villain’s part, saved you $500.

[@joecronly1302]

Bet river with T7ss flush imo. They are going to check back all the non flush hands pretty much always unless you have reads. Nice work on the bankroll building...dust yourself down and back to A game. Good luck

[@petesiragusa8372]

Why would you punt like that without a spade ♠️ blocker???

[@johnbrinkworth687]

Do you play with and Luke in the private game on Tuesdays and Thursdays also Chauncey

[@DeezLouize]

Pot control on the turn with that kind of run out is usually a good idea

[@peterk814]

Honestly you seem like a lot of fun to play with. Note the sarcasm

[@therealbinarymaster]

Guess I was wrong, but shouldn't you have called, that live read.with the sigh would have saved me too

[@henrygonzalez8642]

Let’s go lex! Way to battle back 16:42

[@ruthlessgoat3702]

You had some really bad luck, but this is realistic poker. Playing with several others at a table, the odds are always against you.

[@ThePoliticalLambaster1]

Only watched the first few hands and this vlog reminds me of the 'how to play pocket jacks' pardoy.

[@mikewilliams3509]

Which mistake were you talking about saying don't make this mistake ?

[@GuarionexCerda]

Love your video lex

[@joelcarpio529]

Asking to see the river on that quads hand can only hurt you as if by some crazy miracle a fifth 9 pops off the entire hand is dead and they would go to the camera to return the chips to everyone as they were prior to the hand (I've seen it happen before).

[@sampantiliano]

I think all in was the play on the turn of the 10/7 flush hand. And I hate the check but I guess your mostly only getting called by better.

[@kansascub]

Aces hand is a punt IMO. Pretty hard to go for three streets of value when there are trips and a potential flush on the board. Love your videos just think that hand in particular should have been played slower

[@qlow5956]

That AA hand... the $500 bet was bad, but the $1125 raise was definitely worse. Easy, but good fold.

[@nelsondigital4664]

I had pocket aces recently cracked by a set of 6’s. Based on that I would fold the aces, but otherwise I would call the 1,000 raise.

[@mikehergenroether6160]

That's a min-raise for value on the river. Usually means a monster.

[@creepycall]

I would have folded in a millisecond. Rise on the river in live games is almost always the nuts and in your case could be both flush and full house or trips all of them beating your two pairs. Yes it’s exploitable to fold to a river rise but the frequency of being a bluff in live games is often way lower than online.

[@ryanconover240]

I agree with the fold on the first hand. If he’s bluffing there I don’t think he’s ever going to be raising so small. I prob would have checked the river bc as playing what is calling that you beat.? Maybe only king jack and how often is he calling 500 with that. I think to thin

[@gunesdindiren1919]

very fun episode thank you

[@dleaux]

this video made me feel better about folding pocket 7s to someones all in, and possibly doubling up on the final table. just to lose a all in A/K the very next hand

[@RonixOne32]

Thanks for keeping it real

[@shaymicah4194]

If you're not leading the raise preflop then you allow others to dictate and options to get comfortable with their range. If you raise 100+ preflop I don't see A5 coming along. Then if you half THAT pot I don't see A5 stay in

[@keithgee770]

Great info. Thanks LEx O
