High Stakes in California!!!

[@All-in-on-GME]

I wanted to not like Mariano or his vlog at first but quickly found that impossible - seems to be a super pleasant dude and always showcases interesting hands and analyses regardless of the stakes!

[@Randomized1337Guy]

Loving the consistent quality of these. Don't obsess over how long they are, anyone watching for the content enjoys how much you pack in each episode. I'd even say you could start going over hands that you don't bet but also don't instantly fold. Hearing your thought process on all kinds of angles is great.

[@simpsonzack22]

That Vanessa Selbst joke was perfect. 😂

[@houndearaudio]

I heard her name and was like what?? She’s playing on HCL? i was driving and couldn’t watch. I’ll have to go back and get the joke

[@wristwatch-trader7237]

Pretty risky joke, he's gonna get cancelled lol

[@mattyyoungcloudsart3008]

Wow, just want jto say its awesome seeing people like Rina displaying such good sportsmanship when they lose a hand. Smile, laugh it off, and buy back in. Beautiful. Bravo

[@hauvtoj]

Blaming on the dealer isn't going to help any.

[@wristwatch-trader7237]

Agree, but I'm not gonna get too excited until I know her net worth and source of funds. Depending on the % of your net worth out there, easier (or not) to smile and laugh off...

[@pokerqAK47]

It’s because she doesn’t endure it on a daily basis 😂 It’s so easy when you play like once a week.

[@calebwong5831]

Is this the Rina who was involved in Mar's scandal?

Mariano, what's your best poker strategy? I'd love to try it at Hugewin.

I haven't been watching your videos for a few months because I stopped playing poker myself, but it's always great to come back here! Also, I like that you include dates of the sessions now :)

can somebody explain some questions i have about his hand around 7:30? i undertstand why he bet, but i dont understand his bet sizing. i also dont know if calling the 3-bet is something i would do since my novice intuition is telling me to fold lol. im new! please teach me :)

What a play vs Jungle K9

[@ElenoAlvarado]

Thank You for explaining why you make the decisions you are making in the hands.

[@rgncal4872]

What’s up Mariano, I use to play with you daily at San Manuel before they closed , I remember that was like the beginning of your blog , glad to see you are grinding at big games now, I play in LA at the gardens every once in a while , I still go to Morongo lol , play their 2/5 1k capped game , really happy to see you up in high cash games!!!

[@sammajdi2931]

[@TheOne-eg8rd]

kind of random and off subject, you said you play your drums in the garage. Where I am from, there are a lot of spiders. Do you get spiders or webs around your garage? Also love the poker videos hahaha

[@caithomas6363]

Great vlog as always, enjoy your time with your father 🙏

[@kickdeboll]

Mariano playing like a BEAST

[@stumeister97]

he does have strong hands on the JJQ thats why he mixes in bluffs, def playing raises on that flop

[@NicholasStein]

I watched the straight flush hand on the live stream and have been wondering how you would commentate it. I remember thinking jungle’s table talk was hilarious and I was sure he talked you into this disastrous call. I was also thinking that you might let the table talk come through on your channel.

[@MarianoPoker]

It had no effect on my decision. Maybe I should listen better

[@Keil253]

Good vlog, enjoyed the insights.

[@andrewfei6389]

I may be wrong but pretty sure @11:15 the lady goes all in then holds back some chips? I don’t know the value - they may be like 1/2 dollar chips for buying stuff I don’t know how casinos work - but does look odd for sure.

[@MarianoPoker]

$10 so it doesn't count at a $25-50 table

[@andrewfei6389]

[@cohenhand7887]

Respect for the Milwaukee tools o7

[@lordtraxx4217]

I don’t think for bedding king queen, suited in a loose game is at all out of line, calling with it would be more out of line. In my opinion I preferred the four bets in most cases.

[@MarianoPoker]

Bedding preferences definitely vary

[@Wildest_Wahoo]

11:02 - If Rina was actually all in here, then she still had to chips in her hand that she put down in front of her after the hand was over and then added extra chips on top of it. I don’t remember what chips are what at hustler, but looks like 2 yellow chips.

[@wfdraco809]

Those chips don’t play

[@tphuynh85]

Nice call on that straight flush, "Ethan"!!!

[@michealruss728]

What a duo. HugeWin casino is also lit and very rewarding.

[@Fulltilt-p4g]

A mans tools say a lot about him. I should have guessed you were a Milwaukee man. Elegant, efficient, classy. You get better with every episode Mariano!

[@wristwatch-trader7237]

I'm 19 mins in and so far so good. I like the continued betting with the flush. That sounds standard, but you mucked it up last time in that spot, so nicely played this time. :) And nothing you could have done against jungleman - if he's going to go runner runner flush, then so be it. I could even see him raising a set of 10's there, hoping to get called by aces up. No way you can fold there...

[@chrispavao9038]

Good game to watch Mariano

[@nicky_t1468]

Mariano: no big pots in the blog Also Mariano: so i take down a 100k+ pot 😂😂😂😂😂

[@fisspa]

27:10 What do you think about a raise to like 45k once in a while? I feel like if he (spec Jungle) really had a big hand that’s beating AA here, he prob overbet.. Feels like he really tried to get paid from A high and if you raise I feel like he pays it off alot of the times with any pair because how you played it. What do you think @Mariano?

[@theodorehsu5023]

The first hand against Jungle he had a gut shot straight flush draw, so that fold wasn’t too too bad (he would have gotten at least a flush on the river probably). The second when he DID get the straight flush, oof, sometimes he could go hard.

[@TheWow1983]

On the K4 vs 74 hand - I think when she bets out 3.8k on turn and you see that should you call, she has a pot-sized bet remaining - you're going to decide right then and there that if you get a clean river card, youre calling any shove since that's what she set the pot up to be with her turn bet.

[@timsullivan4566]

Rina's occupation given as "Professional Mermaid"???? 😆😆😆

[@kevinwalsh2545]

I totally believe it, she's beautiful!

[@alexthedeal1827]

Watched latest hcl poker session with Mariano and you are ffin funny!! Women's golf, some other remarks, men.... probably super intelligent as well, has it all

[@leojoseph6385]

Keep up the solid play and Stay Balanced! Jungleman was probably upset with himself that he didn’t have a bigger stack when he got the Straight Flush against you.

[@heinrichh.6369]

Really enjoy those more detailed thoughts process explanations! Great episode and well played 👍

[@macanuhisifa2724]

[@WoWDart]

9:44 do those few remaining chips not play?

Might just be a couple chips like 5 to 10 bucks, like tipping chips, but idk so I'm asking.

No Shot you just played drums and you looked like that right after?

[@Nerdywr]

Rina does have a big over pair that’s for sure

[@Nuksukow]

Hustler is incentivized to set the deck up for you. The more you win, the more you return, the more you give them free publicity via your vlogs. These deckmate 2s have changed poker everywhere across the US.

[@theodorehsu5023]

Great first day, avoided catastrophe second day, so not bad for a 2-day deal. You’re probably better than Rampage right now.
