FIRST $10,000 Pot In The Wildest Game of My LIFE! Playing High Stakes With Whales? - Poker Vlog #51

[@leehjones]

23:30 c'mon Ash, let's not have voodoo. Running it twice has exactly one effect, which is to reduce your variance. Whether you're in front or not has nothing to do with it. In fact, the only relevant question is "Do I want to reduce my variance in this spot?" Given that it's the biggest pot you've ever played, I'd think the answer would be "yes". Certainly Dave wanting to run it twice was probably an indication that you were in great shape, because he's likely a victim of the voodoo too. But your decision should be unrelated to who's in front right now - again, it's *solely* a matter of reducing variance, which in this case, I'd think your answer would be "Let's run it four times." Congratulations on the massive win and keep up the momentum.

Your hand reviews, breaking down the player, honest thought process in the moment, are top notch. Paired with the quality editing, you’re must watch. I’m happy to follow along your journey.

[@DONK2]

A very clean, honest and informative vlog, indeed. The J9o laydown was badazz! Well played - Cheers, -DONK2

[@christopherashford4194]

Boss fold, indeed

[@scottmichaelson7378]

I now know what it feels like to be a person moving up in stakes for the first time. Great insight. Great to see you so humble, and admit how nervous you were. Loved the vlog ❤️

[@PokerfaceAsh]

Congrats!

[@robertblair7698]

I watch some of your videos twice. Every time I move up in stakes, it's necessary for me to play tight for bankroll management. I usually learn something from every video where you are stepping up

[@danielbastardo7164]

Go get em ash! Ran into you at the south point and just shouted at you before taking 2nd place in the 30k tournament. Thanks for the run good buddy!

[@DeathofRyk]

Your vlogs are starting to be one of my favs. Great content here!

[@kzamd]

Your analysis is so enjoyable to hear. I learn a lot from you - thanks!!

[@Platopoker]

What an amazing session. Excellent adjustments for the game dynamics. Great Job!!

[@hattershouse710]

Love how you have leveled up so fast. Keep it up! Oh and nice car!

[@sn00py_1]

Congrats on an awesome session! It's great to see the girls finally making our voices heard in this game.

[@bigbaldguy]

Bravo!!! Great call Ash!!! I hate playing weasels like that. His body language said it all and you made the right, AWESOME call! Hope to get into some hands with you someday here in Texas!

[@leehjones]

18:00 I think I prefer a check-raise in the flop with your set of 8s to charge all the pair+draw, etc. But I get that it's a big game, nerves, etc. Turn is a no-brainer call and you shouldn't be apologizing for it. You're getting 5:1 on a 3.6:1 draw, so you've got a call even if not another dollar goes in the pot. You're giving your viewers some really solid poker advice now - your improvement since you started the vlog is huge. So in this case, just tell em: it's math, I have to call here. Either the board pairs or it doesn't, but don't hate the hand - that's what we call "poker".

[@BridgePewDiePie]

Honestly keep up the good work. I love the engaging commentary

[@oldsoldier4209]

I think seeing these vlogs after watching streams are the best ones. We get to see what information is revealed in the hands you don't play, and figure out how that affects your play. 🤠👍💕

[@n8guy]

I miss seeing the hands you fold, but this was great analysis and really helpful. Thanks, and congrats on 25k!

[@zachwall4075]

DOESNT MATTER IF HES WEAK OR STRONG, RUNNING IT ONCE OR TWICE

[@martinkeller2365]

Good win! Been following you for a while now. Nice to see you move up.

[@elaineengland6373]

Watching from the start so happy to see you win and grow so much!!’

[@leehjones]

8:30 Really good sizing pre ($200). If you whiff, fine. But as you say, if you keep piling it in pre and they keep calling with junk, eventually you get all the money. ❤️ the bet/check analysis after the flop, and why you chose to bet (because they have no fold button).

[@RodEubank]

Ash I think I play kind of similar to you. That guys all in is very hard to call. Glad you did! You and Ashley Sleeth are the best women vloggers out there.

[@TheComicrican333]

You’re killing it Ash, slaying the commentary clarify of thought process, nice job!

[@johnfeltman3840]

Loved your analysis on the KK hand vs EbayDave. Glad to see your live reads paid off!

[@matthewrobinson2520]

Well done! I’ve been watching your vlogs for awhile! It really is only up from here! Congratulations on all the success!

[@ericreinhardt5625]

Great run ash. I'm always cheering for you

[@adrianamaya1932]

Congrats. You make these videos fun to watch.

[@chriselledge4793]

Hey,that's some wild texas poker.Stay alert and you go far in this game.Keep up the good work,great video.

[@avsinsandyman7988]

Love the run-it-once with KK. No mercy for the guy pushing you around all night.

[@robsteinmetz624]

Have now subscribed to your vlog. Have enjoyed it for a while now. Keep up the good work and enjoy the camry!

[@Jlockjammers217]

Best vlog yet! Killing it!

[@garynizol1739]

What’s not to like? Your logic was spot on, Ash! Patience. You always kept your head held high. Get the feeling many players would have gone “tilt.” Not you. Not this day. All the lesson’s learned along the way were the lead up to this very nice hand. Plus. It’s not like the hand was a gimme, either. You should be proud of yourself! Great job!

[@BillLevenson]

Go Ash! Love the vlog. Congrats on 25K subscribers. Congrats on the big win with the KK

[@xxxlosi]

Keep crushing it, Ash! Well done!

[@slottery21]

Watching your channel grow has been a blast. Hope that Texas is treating you well off the felt as well

[@keepcalmandre-buypoker5902]

TCH Dallas is an awesome place to play poker. I went there a few weeks ago on a Saturday afternoon and they had so many players that they had two tables set up in the foyer, in front of the check in desk. Half the table were degens who would have been happier at a Blackjack table, but we don't have that in Texas.

[@scottcoombe9979]

I have been watching you for a while. I play at lone butte and was bummed I never made it to a meet up. You videos have gotten way better. Not only your play, but also your production. I am happy for you and will look forward to future videos.

[@samjones4268]

Nice hit Ash. I just ask that since you support Pokerbros, why don't you do a vlog on that? I really want to challenge all vloggers to this that support that app . It would be nice to see you play the same stakes. 🙂

[@ChristopherB123]

always nice to have your big hands hold up

[@diceman8062]

Nice call PokerfaceAsh... Tremendous results, congratulations...

[@jeffmonroe6664]

Congrats on the 25k Club dude!

[@meflove]

EXCELLENT analysis. Seriously, this is the best one you've done 👍

[@JSwisha24]

Bravo m'lady...excellent vlog and top notch play! And congrats on 25k! The next 25k will come in no time.

[@nddst77]

Dude was def trying to push you around. Great call! :D

[@souliskex]

wow what a juicy game! very gutsy call with KK,but it was obvious in many hands that due to how big it played it affected you,and i totally get it(f.e. TT hand & K6s,totally misplayed) if u play out of your comfort zone it's tough.so valuable lesson here ,when you do take the longshot in higher stakes it is very difficult to play your A game,on the other hand even B+ game is enough to print $ in such a soft game. GG NitfaceAsh

[@gablen23]

Just like it used to be in poker, when you flop the nutz, or a very strong hand, they outdraw you, and when you have AA, or KK, they put you to the test, hehe. Nice call, great win!

[@BetOnDrew]

Sick spot with Kings!!! Nice call Ash!

[@jacobalbarado4993]

Loved the vlog and charisma! It feels like you're playing against the house when you're going 5 ways every damn hand lol. I live in Austin so I know

[@PokerJeezus]

You should want to run it multiple times as the equity favorite As an extreme example, if your opponent has ONE out, running it twice protects you from the beat where you get scooped In addition, in that spot you're guaranteed to get at least half the pot, but usually you'll win it all Likewise your opponent that is behind should want to run once as they are hard-pressed to scoop on two runouts

[@Zack-pq2fn]

Awesome laydown with the straight!

[@lemiless]

I enjoy following your journey. Way to go!

[@toddbarrera375]

Congrats on the 25k, almost 30k as I watch this. :D

[@Ryanrob444]

Awesome session Ash! Thanks for giving back!

[@Zexinninjamode]

Thank you so much for the content! Your journey is inspiring. Also what is the program you are using to calculate call / bet / fold percentages? Would like to check it out.

[@markhellie6837]

Great session and vlog! Great call on the last hand. I probably would run it twice. Even if you are ahead, (1) you can still lose and (2) E-bay Dave seems like a fun player, so I would do what ever he wants (however, it seemed like he was just being nice and agreeing to a second run in case he wins run 1).

[@jamesthorson8135]

congratulations on your biggest cash!! it's only up from here too!!!

[@scotthewitt6423]

Great win, Ash, well done. Appreciate all your analysis, especially where you think your game might be improved. Very introspective, which is what good players do.

[@techrubicon]

Great win Ash! Such a good call you are really doing some high level analysis

[@madsi7424]

Ash - great to see your game and analysis getting you to these higher stakes. Way to knock it out of the park!

[@trev9418]

Way to go ash! Your game play and confidence in your ability has gone through the roof with these bigger games!

[@josearzola0824]

so happy to see you doing so well!

[@joemorales3891]

Great job ASH I usually dont comment but I do love your content. I have been watching a while! Youre getting better an better every vlog! I love the thought process on the last hand to run it once.

[@1193mac]

Great to see you doing so well. Keep up the great vlog!

[@henryoutlaw]

Great job Ash! Way to read the table.

[@Jswyso]

OMG!!! There's almost nothing better than making a maniac eat a sheet sangwish like that. OutFuxingStanding PFA!!!

[@paulrobidoux6707]

That was awesome, Ash! Gutsy call…glad to see you make it count.

[@cbrindle3]

Good analysis of the J2♦️ hand

[@emmelcee]

I really like your vlog. You keep it real. And you have better graphics than any other poker vlog!

[@nyevegas4015]

I watched the KK hand live on Twitch. That was a great call! I was cheering for you. 🎉

[@michaelmclaughlin1958]

Congrats on the big win. These streaming games are tough. You’re smart to play like you did. It’s only up from here!

[@chrisstrohbeck4860]

Nice Win Ash, and excited about the giveaway!

[@colintimp1372]

Congratulations on your successes, on the table and the channel! Keep up the good work!

[@tia.dulaney]

Really great Vlog Ashley!

[@eltoroloco1936]

Thank you for running it once knowing you were ahead! I always get tired of the..."in the long run" spiel.....you knew you were ahead, take the pot now!

[@k1ngaagaard]

New car, new monitor, biggest pots of your career, who are you? Hahaha the run good is real, Texas is about to learn real quick!!! Let's goooooooooo!!! 😛🤙

[@nobodybigger]

I think your Twitter link is wrong on the contest entries, I had to follow someone else to get the extra entry. Anyways, love following you, you're one of my favorites and definitely becoming a great player. Hopefully I can play with you some day!

[@pat75]

BTW, thanks for using parentheses in the giveaway skill testing question! I always worry about using PEMDAS properly and getting those things wrong. Having the parentheses there made it certain! 🤣

[@clintdagasdas7505]

Patience is a virtue… well done ⚡️🤙

[@c_kling]

Huge! Nice work Ash!

[@richardgoerlich1261]

Fun video, nice win and congrats on the new car!

[@M0RALO]

No doubt your my favorite female poker vlogger. Keep it up never fold...

[@chrisleos1235]

Aside from all your decisions, you played well, I think given the chance to run it twice with your kings, your instructors are going to favor running it twice in that spot, glad it all worked out, awesome Scoop 😊

[@Fc-uw3gd]

Good luck!! pokerface Ash, love your channel. keep up the progression. Wow! What a sweaty call! I was sweating watching that hand 😂

[@pokerbharath]

[@ohgeewhiz1968]

[@qwopman9259]

Run it twice as a courtesy!! It doesn't take away from your hand or play to run it twice

[@leedee1277]

Great play, Ash!!

Great vlog and great session. Way to be patient.
