Facing Huge Raise on the River @MGM National Harbor | 1/3 Poker Vlog

[@jake_villanueva]

Run it up!!

[@BrotherLove3]

Good fold with the K5 and as you said, that's why I do not play them type of hands!

[@MacksBet28]

Precisely my man. It saves you alot of money

[@BrotherLove3]

@MacksValue I have gotten to where I only play K8 suited or better and only K10 off and it has saved me a lot of money. Poker is the greatest patience game I have ever played. If you really wanna win at it. You must be very selective on what and when you play in hands.

[@MyFitFirst]

Like the new layout!

[@MacksBet28]

Thank you it'll be in the rotation for future videos

[@TheNow_Now]

K5s hand is definitely interesting. I would just fold pre being out of position to a 6x raise ($17) multiway. Maybe heads up to a smaller raise $10 or $12 you could call, but I would just fold preflop. I think river is an easy fold too. Like you said, those river raises are just soooo underbluffed at low stakes. All of his bluff combos, he would have likely bet flop with, like AsKx etc. And if you think anyone at 1/3 is ever turning AA with A of spades into a bluff lmao that just isn't happening.

[@MacksBet28]

I agree just in the moment you don't want to be bluffed. Obviously it's an easy fold I'm theory but I don't think in the moment anyone just gonna snap fold

[@nicknc729]

👀👀👀

[@MacksBet28]

Yupppp

[@kaysuhdila4725]

Attacking weak bets is always good. It was definitely an exploitative raise which is completely fine. There’s definitely some heads there who would snap you off, so knowing who you can bluff is a great skill. Nice vid!

[@MacksBet28]

Yeah in 1/3 with no overcards alot of people don't even understand how strong a hand I could have. Just that they have an overpair so definitely gotta choose wisely lol

[@tomprice4016]

That dealer in second hand is the best dealer at MGM, imho.

[@MacksBet28]

yup i definitely think she is awesome!

[@sn00py_1]

I love here. She is a great dealer and just a sweet person

[@MacksBet28]

@@sn00py_1 yeah she's like the crowd favorite 💯

[@YoshiBugatti]

Nah you mean the dealer in the 1st hand lol

[@jamesont22]

I like the river jam on ace jack I agree with you a call is just super nitty and your missing value. Played it well!

[@jamesont22]

I think queen ten of spades hand is fine as played! I do think your bluff bet sizing should have been a little bigger because you’re giving him a great price to call at that sizing but still a good spot in a 1/3 game for a bluff. Not sure that works in higher stakes where players under stand value and pot odd better

[@jamesont22]

I love your fold on the straight hand. Especially at 1/3 stakes that’s winning poker! Like you said at lower stacks river raises are just very rarely bluffs into multiple way pots

[@jamesont22]

Great session!

[@MacksBet28]

​@@jamesont22I agree in low stakes people are more looking at dollar amounts more than the pot odds so you have to play accordingly

[@MacksBet28]

​@@jamesont22I agree. I mean knowing it's low stakes it's a very trivial fold. But at the same time in the moment you just want to win the pot. But it's saving so much money to just fold. Turn raise is almost always the nuts. And a river raise is ALWAYS the nuts lol. That's the saying

[@BillyBoi911]

Keep it up 💪 I like the new editing Also, you should invest some of these profits into a microphone haha. Would up the quality of these vids and good ones aren’t too pricey.

[@MacksBet28]

Will get it done soon for sure!

[@armank9927]

You played well

[@MacksBet28]

Thank you next video even better

[@thatguy2408]

Prudently aggressive. That is how I would describe your style. You are good at picking your spots. Liking your vlog dude. Keep it up. Looking forward to your climb.

[@MacksBet28]

Thank you. I feel at low stakes ppl do too much telegraphing how much they like their hand so gotta take advantage of them lol

[@spencertaggart2937]

Think you might’ve got lucky turning top pair 10 into the bluff, most people aren’t folding over pairs there😅 if it works it works tho!

[@MacksBet28]

Lol i just went with my read

[@Badyelpreview]

Hope to see you at MGM sometime man. Love the videos

[@MacksBet28]

you can catch me there 5 days a week im 6'2 so if im walking shouldnt miss me lol

[@Blase21]

Yoo what up from Moco MD! I think your hindsight analysis on the AJ hand is probs right; only gonna get called by better but I think the raise in the moment makes sense after he only leads out for 40. The Q10 one I liked the raise a lot after he bets the same amount as flop but I was astonished he folds QQ there. Very nitty or afraid of monsters. Real nice fold on the K5 wow way to take your time on it AJ hand I think maybe a bet on the turn could’ve been nice as a feeler bet to see where you’re at Nice vid glad I stumbled upon it

[@MacksBet28]

Yessir many videos up and many coming. I agree with all your points. The second aj hand tho. What hands would i target for value?

[@Blase21]

Probably only 10s tbh so probs not worth it in the end. But it could be a spot for a semi bluff kind of bet, w the increase of equity getting a gutshot to go w the pair and nut flush draw

[@chillmfwill19]

Yea the new style is better than the older videos

[@MacksBet28]

Appreciate it. It's a little more work to do but I don't mind if it looks more aesthetic

[@atillaeren9484]

I like this set up better, get to see the cards on table. Much more clear. Stay hustling G

[@MacksBet28]

My man I appreciate it 🎉

[@nicknc729]

Face cam a nice addition 👌🏾

[@MacksBet28]

Yessir just keep adding layers to my editing

[@elaineengland]

I like the voice overs!

[@MacksBet28]

It'll be a nice blend of both moving foward

[@Dirty_Harambe]

You're definitely not supposed to bet that AJ hand where the K pairs the board. Even if there are some pocket pairs that pay a little the vast majority of calls are beating you, especially at these stakes. You played it properly imo.

[@MacksBet28]

Yeah I agree. I am more likely to get called my a hand that beat me than a hand that I beat trying to bluff catch

[@carolynmcintyre6814]

Both ways are good. I do like the picture in the box

[@MacksBet28]

thank you it is a little extra work but i dont mind doing it!

[@N2Pker]

I like the window, it is good!

[@nickondrus9673]

Keep it up!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@MacksBet28]

Yes thank you. Won't stop grinding

[@VinsValue]

Great addition with the face cam!

[@MacksBet28]

My man thank youuu

[@captaintrips6115]

I am no pro, but since you were asking for feedback. The raise with broadway is mandatory, you could easily get called by just trip Q’s. I wouldn’t call the raise with Q-T suicidal, but I think you are getting called more times than not in that situation…..luckily not that time.

[@MacksBet28]

Thank you. You're opinion is still valid I agree with you on the Broadway hand but you know sometimes we don't do the things we know we should. And if he's a thinking player I think the qt bluff gets through alot more. But at 1/3 people be married to overpairs

[@harrybum13]

Just moved to NOVA but haven't made it out to the MGM yet. When's the best day to play in your opinion? You know any good home games in the area?

[@EternalSoul222]

because of the weird stack to pot ratio, I think jamming all in on the river once you make broadway is fine. I don't think AQ would fold but maybe that's the only hand that will pay you off that isn't beating you.

[@MacksBet28]

Well I think with the way ppl play any 2 there's alot of qxs that make trips that aren't boats. But to a respectful range I'd agree w you 💯

[@707ridah]

How long you been playing 4?

[@MacksBet28]

Regularly about 3 years

[@prodjhurrikane3779]

whats good man, im in the dmv area too might see you up at MGM one day

[@inka_cp123]

Bro any tips on playing 1/3 games ?? New to poker

[@MyranSimonian]

Good jam with Broadway you'll always get called by qx

[@MacksBet28]

absolutely! just gotta fight the nitty urge to check just because i dont have the nuts lol

[@MyranSimonian]

@@MacksBet28 yeah and your AJ hand is easy check back they'll never call with worse

[@benjaminp5090]

Both are straight, throw some footage of the casino display in there at the beginning and you walking to your table with chips or something, near where Ginger is or something for your intro also, keep the vlogs coming 🔥

[@MacksBet28]

okay definitely can do that! you know about ginger that means you a regular lol

[@atillaeren9484]

Either way is Gucci G but I think without the face is better commentary

[@peteclesno]

You're a helluva player. Love the open mind and keep getting better! Technical error on your opponent with QQ. If you bet the river, you HAVE to be ready for a raise. Make your money on the turn. He did neither. 🤷‍♀

[@MacksBet28]

You're right thank you. I'm getting better as well

[@jakethesnake1366]

Top right corner I keep thinking you have gigantic white hands. Lol. Good video

[@MacksBet28]

🤣🤣 whoops

[@nicholi2789]

Sick play with the Q10ss! Nice read. Also nice fold with the K5. I’m not sure I could have folded there.

[@MacksBet28]

It sucked to fold you know. But to me your skill as a player is making big folds not calls. It's way harder to fold a strong hand but when you know people don't bluff there close to ever in 1/3 just gotta fold. It hurt my heart in the process tho lol

[@NOPICKBRIM]

My dog!

[@MacksBet28]

Appreciate you gangsta

[@ChineseBandit24]

Nice fold of your K5 of hearts, but that kind of flop is why I personally would never play a suited K5, no matter how good the price is.

[@MacksBet28]

I hated it. But just had to give it up smh

[@MacksBet28]

And you're right. Those hands get you into trouble especially when hitting top pair

[@N2Pker]

That bluff was awesome if he had one pair, it is hard to hold on to one pair on a connected board.

[@MacksBet28]

Yeah that board was getting uglier and uglier for an overpair for sure

[@markhellie6837]

The river raise was an over play of QT, not a bluff because you thought your opponent was weak. If you were trying to get two pair to fold by pretending to have a set of Ts, it would be a bluff (and a bigger raise). Great vlog.

[@MacksBet28]

@markhellie6837 was not an overplay. Was a bluff because of his small rivwr sizing which usually in low stakes is an unsure hand.

[@houndearaudio]

Yeahhh boiii

[@MacksBet28]

Back again with another one

[@TheNow_Now]

man that QT hand is just clicking buttons by both you and your opponent lmao. You are never representing anything there after checking all 3 times. I don't understand your raise on the end either - you say its for thin value but what hands are you hoping to get called by that 3b pre? AK is never calling you there. Surprised opponent folded too, after betting small flop, checking turn, and then betting TINY on river. lmao I would snapping it off there with QQ after you checked all 3 streets

[@MacksBet28]

I never said I was going for thin value. I said I didn't wanna get beat by a marginal hand that I beat! Go back to hand I said I was behind and wanted a fold brother
