I Play $90,000+ Pot w Phil Ivey On My Left!!! Magnus Carlsen, Botez, Yassuo Play! Poker Vlog Ep 219

[@MaSTARMedia]

Just explained to my wife how cool it is to see you go from 2/5 to playing with the best in the world. What a journey it's been dude!

[@luisrg436]

And she said... don't even think about it.

[@UmmYoureChinese]

these players are not the best in the world lol, not even remotely close. this is a very soft lineup barring Ivey, and Ivey is nowhere near "best in the world" (Ivey is probably the goat sure but not elite at NLHE cash in 2022) (this isn't meant as a diss/hate towards Brad)

[@fozzy7199]

It's probably easier to move up when you are making 200k/yr from YT in addition to your poker winnings.

[@YallaMiami]

@@fozzy7199 but here is the thing. He played with 40K and he’s literally comparing that to what he was making a year as an accountant. He is very smart and knows how not to move up unless you have a good bankroll regardless of how much his KZbin income is. He have 700K followes and I’m sure he is making enough to play on high stakes but he doesn’t. Now compare him to Mariano and Rampage. Who just lost 100K on the hustler stream and he shared he been going a down swing!

[@BradOwenPoker]

​@@fozzy7199 Less so than you'd think. If I had spent thousands of hours studying and playing poker rather than making YT videos for the past 5.5 yrs, I would likely be playing very high stakes still and I'd be an even better player. I've been beating high stakes games the last few years despite that.

[@apollo3679]

Damn that “the last thing I told my dad was that I sat with the best in the world and I won” part was epic, Brad. Keep going. No breaks. These blogs are getting better and better.

[@berniemcginley3616]

Been watching you, since almost the beginning (but, have seen every vlog). You've ALWAYS been a class act, but your decision to be with your family? (I'm sure you thought it thru....( do I stay and win one, for Dad, things like that)...... THAT was a class act! As your Dad looked down, from above, I think he would be proud of you, and realized "I raised my boy right!" But, to STILL make the money.... WAY COOL!

[@Stenanikte]

Gave me so much chills! Amazingly written and edited!

[@theodorehsu5023]

Just remember to pace yourself and give yourself a chance to grieve for your dad's passing. Let yourself do what you need to in order to cope, talk to whomever you need to for it, and don't forget if you need moral support we're all for you, Brad.

[@skiller135]

I think I speak for your whole fan base when I say, its been a blast watching you absolutely kill it. Watching you start out playing small casino tables, to you playing 90k pots with the biggest legends in the game. Here's to many more successful years to come! I hope I get to see you on the tables my self one day.

You’re a top shelf fun guy, your mom and dad raised a good man. Carry that with you to help fill part of the big hole in your heart that came with the loss of your dad.

[@camtheduelist]

Brad, I've been watching your channel for a long time. I've never left a comment on your video but I just wanted to say that you have left a positive impact on my life with the content that you share with us. All the cash games, tournaments, and meet up games have all led up to this very important part of your poker career and it brings so much joy to see you succeed and play with some of the best poker players that you grew up idolizing. It's a dream that many of us have that you absolutely deserve to experience. Very sorry to hear about your Dad's passing. It must be tough going through that and we respect you sharing that detail about your life with us. I just about teared up when you said that one of the last conversations you had with him was when you shared this amazing poker experience with him before his passing. I'm sure there wasn't a single dad out there that was more proud of their son than yours. The fact that he lived to see his son fulfill his dreams makes me think that he left this world peacefully. I'm very happy I stumbled upon your channel all those years ago, and the amazing impact you had on my life as well as countless others wouldn't have happened if it weren't for your dad. We as a community are so grateful for him and to you as well. Cheers to the legend, Mr. Owen

[@KimbrellBrad]

So sorry about your dad! I lost my dad 6 years ago (i'm 62 now) and miss him every day. But I also hold him (and my mom) in my heart and relish the great times we had together and all of the love they showed me...even when I felt I didn't deserve it LOL. Keep your memories of your dad close - more will come as time passes. Most of my memories today are of all of the things that my parents taught me to make me as successful as I became. I am very grateful and you will always be as well!

[@rwthomas2039]

My heart goes out to you, Brad. Losing your Dad as you sit in the largest game of your career is a horrible roller coaster for you. May your memories of your Dad be far greater than the game of poker. Just know that he is sitting next to you in future games watching over you. God bless, Brad.

Your big-time tournament score is coming!

[@jonathanhenderson9422]

Hard to express how happy I am for Brad doing so amazing in such a big game, and how excited I am to see such coverage of an event that brings my favorite poker AND chess players together! Been a poker player for decades now but chess is a recent passion so it's awesome to see these two worlds colliding. Phil, Brad, and every poker player should be very afraid if Magnus starts taking the game seriously. Though chess and poker are two very different games the intellectual skills that makes Magnus dominant in chess could easily make him dominant at poker if he put in the work to learn it.

My father passed away young as well, and as hard as it is, I can tell he did a great job with you...

Been watching you since around vlog#30 through all the ups and downs man I been here holding it down, I’ve watched one or maybe two vlogs where your dad say and played with you and I just wanna say that no one is ever prepared to lose his father but you learn to live without him being present. I’m truly sorry for your loss brother and your family will be in my thoughts. Keep crushing it and continue to show dad who is truly the best in the world and I’ll be here waiting and watching for that moment. 👍

Sorry for your loss Brad. I hope you and your family can stay strong during this time. It’s been a pleasure watching your videos, you truly are awesome.

My condolences, Brad. That was a genuinely touching tribute to your father. He sounds like he was a great dad.

This dude is extremely professional, extremely happy for you that you’ve had this opportunity to sit on that table. Waited patiently and it paid off. Your pops is happy for you man.

This video shows not only how well rounded your poker game is, but how you prioritize all the things in life. Many blessings to you dude.

Brad, this is by far the BEST vlog you have put out. Not just from a video production stand point (the skit was hilarious btw), but from an emotional stand point of talking about your dad, your drive, what he meant to you. Congrats on all the success at that game (CHOOSING to give Ivey position on you takes a set lmao), with the WPT and all the success and with The Lodge. Moving to Texas in January, so I'm looking forward to making my way to Round Rock. I feel honored to have gotten a chance to talk to you at your MUG at The Hustler (I was the one in the Dwight Shrute shirt lol). Anyway, keep doing your thing, my man. See you on the felt. P.S. now I can officially say that I will be waiting to take YOUR bankroll in 5 years lol

That was the best game to watch you play. I was more nervous for you having phil to your left. It was even more special having the best player in chess playing too. wow!!! Losing your father was so heart felt. Family is always first. My condolences🙏.
