[@fawadpoker4003]

lex that bet of 8000 with AAA on river was really nice, you really induced him, very well done, you made him look like blocker bet, which made him shove as bluff

[@lh5636]

en kun je mij uitleggen waarom bbz zegt een op 4x hopen goede keer bij 25%. ik zou zeggen dat is negatieve ev omdat je er vaker langs zult zitten ook al is het lastiger in te schatten of hij fold of callt. beste verlies nemen 100% fold?! daar ben ik ook nog niet achter

[@TheRovardotter]

What does it mean when he marks a player yellow?

[@andymac5569]

defo respect the heart , and r u calling his shove on river with AJs , ATs, A5s... wen the queen comes AK is a tough call aswell

[@OsefKincaid]

We block A5s and that's the only one of these hands that he might play like this (probably not even).

[@oliviergrenier3574]

Do we have that wide of a range when we cold 4bet pre?

[@vladbcom]

6:50 I'm wondering what's the rationale for this call? With only 6 clean outs (excluding the clubs), at 14% pot odds alone are not enough. If you plan to bluff club river, that's 15 outs, or ~33% which would seem enough to justify the call.

[@jonathanbosma2546]

You cant just + the equity of the club lol.. thats like saying he has 100% if he bluffs all rivers

[@jonathanbosma2546]

Besides that, he would have 17 outs than, not 15.

[@76jossa]

Seen that you won 93k recently was that tournament shown yet ?

[@lh5636]

moet bij 6:56 nooit turn callen? of ligt dat aan high stakes? hoor graag van je. want hebt 16% outs j high zal bijna nooit spelen en 40% pot odds nodig alle outs behalve groen wel zeker win..

[@leothelion5491]

The Q River you lost some value there...you had top pair...worth a shot half pot maybe at 10.25 hand, hey you the best lex , I'm never tell you how to play

[@peterdixon3475]

I totally appreciate cash games may differ. but why do u take the lead upon hitting a set of kings etc post flop and bet compared to high stakes players such as Linus and Trueteller et al; they almost check by default.

[@samrizza8785]

A lead is a little disguised as it can appear you're trying to take control of the pot with nothing - it's annoying af when you're on the receiving end of it. Like if I have KQ suited and the board comes J 8 2 rainbow, you have a clear C-bet but if that's taken away, it's kind of jarring - like, should you continue? annoying! It can seem like villain is up to no good, but if they have a set of jacks, they're in a great spot if I have, say, Aces, and come over the top and jam.

[@joshtownsendpoker5862]

You C-bet many many hands because you have range advantage so this balances to where opponent can call with bottom pairs, gut shots because typically size down. KK hand all A-high combos were available because Lex had KK so with 2 Broadway cards, F-draw & then backdoor F-draw means Lex can barrel his Flush draws of both suits like this at times and could have Ax as well and river bet can be perceived as missed F-draw BC board & texture worked out perfectly for this to be option or Lex can overbet river hoping to get opponent off chop with Ax.... players bet and size up with big draws and big river bluffs if they miss and think could get through so using value hand same way will get calls from good players. Rec player he probably doesn’t take same line against

[@samrizza8785]

You're watching a tourno where he went all the way - I'm sure if you play, you've gone deep in a tourno before - because you got good hands, got action and then didn't get coolered - the combination of the 3 is so rare - most tournos he plays he won't run anywhere near this level - theses guys play a ton of tournos every day and most they don't cash - nothing to do with Stars at all Sometimes you run well. Most of the time you just don't.

[@joshtownsendpoker5862]

Horrible shove with AJo vs EP open shallow stack so he’s gotta assume dont have much fold equity there smh AJs+ maybe is at least lot better but I think 1010+ AQ+ should be only shoves by him but player never fail to surprise me. Honestly I’m folding AQo (in $1K but I’m wuss lol) bc he’s never supposed to have AJo but as always just as I often end my runs are a right call/play not holding vs attempted chip donations lol AJo vs ur range just isn’t worth it AT ALL players don’t understand risking 1/3 stack in spot at range disadvantage ITM is insane. If you were in MP or especially HJ or CO vs AJ there that’s much more plausible but all those seats in between represent how much tighter you are opening....

[@Phil8sheo]

May I suggest adding garbage time black screen to the end of your videos? Make it 30 minutes more so that we can not tell when you go out based on the length of the video alone. Good run Lex. Get it in good dominating, what can you do? GG!

Shoving with 55 on the river early in the 1k... He may have balls, but he's still a fish.

[@ChocPretzel8]

Mega fish that hand was played the worst possible way.

[@30953928]

No balls that’s just awful play and I think Lex played this terrible tbf! Any other player would’ve folded flop after that bet and Lex should never bet that flop with your opponents range. He has the board smashed. River bet was ok to get value from a Q but he’s turning his hand face up......Very lucky he was against the only player on the site to do something that silly.

[@hafednaoufal3018]

Yeah the 3 bet was ok but the cold 4bet call was a big mistake and at the river he only represents QQ. But i agree that lex should never bet that flop. I think he made that bet because he knows his opponent is a fish.

[@fawadpoker4003]

yeh but lex induced him by betting as a blocker bet, so he see the door open, so he shove, because he knows he can't win the pot by pocket 55's.
