[@crossfitnrv2181]

Lex, which would you choose to have? Brad Owen's: a) KZbin subscriber count. b)Height.

[@omkarparab7702]

Money saved is money earned man. Some boss folds in this vlog, learning moments for all of us.

[@Legolas1717]

Except some of those might have been winning hands. All the calls and raises were a loss 😂

[@JNailon]

Lex a great way to get a person to show their cards on a winning hand is offer to tip the dealer $5/10 to show. I have done this several times and it works.

[@atanasdzhivdzhanov4252]

I can confirm. I have seen the folowing scene in a 1-2 game 300 pot A: would you show? B:No A:What if I give you 5 bucks B:No Dealer:Giving chips to other players not allowed anyway. B: Ok I will show if you give the dealer 10 bucks tip. A gives tip and B shows but I don't remmember the hand...

[@dawnmarie2893]

Love the bluff. It made sense in theory. Surprised he didn't raise the turn on a draw-heavy board. On a side note, it's nice not to see you break down every single hand and give the same verbage over and over like some poker vloggers. You have just the right tough without becoming redundant. Hands down the best new poker vlogger.

[@kdnz]

You and rampage play heads up and you guys can just level each other for hours LOL

[@rileyvick8998]

Lex would crush Rampage I'm pretty sure.

[@Dxnielxlee]

@@rileyvick8998 the pocket KK hand says a lot about both of them. theyre a donkey

[@mattystacks7226]

Rampage can’t beat $1-3, Lex would literally destroy him. If he didn’t luckbox a bracelet or have KZbin revenue, he would be on indeed.com getting a job. I like rampage but he’s fundamentally horrible

[@coreyckr]

@@mattystacks7226 love keyboard warriors. He’s accomplished more than you at poker most likely yet you still hate. Keep up the hard work.

[@michaelstephens9852]

@@mattystacks7226 rampage wins more than he loses and has a bracelet. Can you say that? Both players occasionally donk punt off cash from some bluffs but that's poker.

[@tmark33m]

oh man, that punt was epic.. akin to Rampage's $11K punt yesterday

[@flamcheeseful]

Where can I see that punt.

[@StevieSparkZ]

Rampage's play was worse in every way, but it happens.

[@davidgrant3026]

That bluff was brutal. Your logic made sense until he called.

[@zag7steve]

I totally disagree. Lex's logic "made sense" in that it is one path of how we could have gotten here but you have to think of all the paths and weight them. The river 3-bet bluff was 1300 to win 600ish so it has to be correct a whopping 68% of the time to be the right move. The assumption that the villain was rebluffing is clearly less than 68% of the paths that get him here, because it is so rare for a recreational player to raise-bluff on the river like that. I see a big hand that was slow-played as being more likely. Save your assumption that someone is rebluffing for times that you have a decent bluff catcher, so you only have to call rather than jam to apply your theory.

[@stevemurphy3298]

Having watched one of your videos for the 1st time, it's pretty clear you are playing outside your level. It seems like a non stop clinic of how to play every single premium badly. It's almost a perfect video of what not to do in every scenario you've filmed. However, best of luck you do seem like a genuine and very nice guy.

[@michaelwillis4532]

Great folds. They can’t exploit you when they don’t know what you are folding. Not many players think on the level that you do. I love the the fact that you dump them big hands bc they have bigger hands so many times. Great video as always!

[@tiger221166]

First villain when you had KK and he jammed on the river - 99% he had AK there. Not wanting to show the suckout is a giveaway. Good fold

[@rafaelalvarez3474]

No he knew he couldn't win unless he bet

[@roadrunnerstill5437]

This is the best poker channel on yt!!! The reason being is because I think you are a genuine and honest person. Can’t wait to see you on tch live. Hopefully I could catch you at the rock one day and say what’s up

[@ianshirreffs5604]

Subbed and liked! I like the content and will be watching in the future. Good luck in TX lol, they never fold. Hope you win big and get some Bradley dollars haha. Sorry Brad. Just kidding, but not about winning big. LFG!!!

[@jasonhounsell3297]

“I’m trying not to pay off recs on the river when they take aggressive action” -- punts into a river raise with 8 high with the all in 3bet 😂😂😂

[@stevenwashington917]

NORMALLY WHEN I BLUFF A PAIRED BOARD WITH 8 HIGH I LOSE TOO, MUST BE A COINCIDENCE : LOL ....LOVE THE VLOG BRO AND BEST OF LUCK WITH THE CHANNEL!

[@lees4138]

I wouldve ripped all in with AA on that board, but definitely scary seeing so many bet big on that board

[@dangraffenius1988]

Some pretty sick folds!! I think I might have lost it all on the AA hand but kudos to you as it was probably the right move. You’re my favorite vlogger, keep up the great content!!

[@danielgarland9838]

Another great video Lex! As I have said repeatedly you can learn from your videos and when I'm playing on the strip I am promoting you like crazy! My spiel to my opponents is when I see you again and you have told me that you have liked and subscribed then I will be doing a table change because of your increased knowledge of the game!! Hopefully we will meet up when you come to Vegas next month!

[@rbswan9897]

Loved that you show the punt. Thinking was good but slow play plays that way too. Love the vlog bud. Also, the big folds seemed correct, wow, how frustrating.

[@GetRichorDieScratching]

I’m an idiot but on the first hand couldn’t he also have King/Queen of Spades? Just a thought, not sure if that’s totally out of line.

[@marcoscoronado4575]

For sure man but idk he seemed pretty nutted there, I put him on AQ, AK all day. I don’t think he would’ve jammed with the A on the River although he did use to sell his strength story

[@joeyp3094]

Lex I have to ask... I get occasional rebluffing but that was a very small pot of $180 after the turn and you led $100 after the river. Now when he raises to $400...people typically make a play like that as a bluff if the pot is much higher no? Strange spot for them to make a move that's all.

[@newspaperman281]

Tough session, but not one you can't bounce back from. I enjoy your vlogs and analysis. I had sessions like this one, but when i left i felt like won. If that makes since. I'm a 1/2,1/3 player, so when i make these folds it's always spot on. Anyway keeping grinding.

[@DAWEAP1]

It’s so rare to see a 3B bluff on the river. Love the heart but I’m wondering how much of your consideration was so you could show it on the vlog

[@JS_Golf]

Love the vlog man. Was excited to find a FL boy playing some cards. Hopefully will make a trip down soon and play a couple hands with ya. Great way to handle a tough night! GL and hope you get to meet Brad!

[@zacharyjimenez5021]

No that was a logically fold with aces

[@jdicari9534]

@@zacharyjimenez5021 thing is if you folding aces kings and sets just go home bro

[@rickyr6178]

Hes folding aces in a tough spot especially when every calling 500$ its hard a call especially if you know he going to bet the turn. The pocket kings is a different scenario he shouldve raised on flop big.

[@devintittle8096]

With no realistic draws on the board lex is definitely beat here getting called for that much money in 3 spots. J5, 52, any set, he’s beat here by at least 1. Aces just a pair at the end of the day

[@troyleachjr4424]

[@davidlewis9281]

Lex I think you are a really good poker player. Ive been playig for about 15 years mostly on line but some live too. I would love to meet up with you some time and hit the felt with ya. Love the vlog and I know it takes a lot of work to do the vlog and i appreciate it. Thanks for the content bro

[@richardc3693]

I said to myself with the bluff on the river when he showed j7, he had a jack. I find myself in that spot a lot, and most times just over thinking and fall victim to Fancy play Syndrome. He was telling you he had a big hand you just didn't believe him. I know that's just one hand but I find myself at the poker table in those spots and lost enough money to say fuck it he most likely has it. Better to give them credit then chips

[@thepoorelephant4978]

Probably the best poker advice i've ever read. Very well stated.

[@A684977]

Fantastic vlog. You will get to 50k subscribers soon!!!

[@WillPage]

Tough session... I too am trying to improve my river folds... There is a lot of chips one could still have in their stack at the end of the night adopting some good folds right? I empathise with you, it's pretty difficult "the not knowing" but I guess we have to trust our reads ... folding the AA was certainly the right move. I would be AMAZED to learn otherwise. Strange how the other two players folded the turn after calling such a big flop bet though.

[@danielcheng771]

I think for the AA hand, you were essentially priced in for a call on the flop at that point, and could fold the turn since it was a jack

[@mryoungshark4086]

I just found your channel couple days ago and I binge watching video after video since thank you for this great poker content Lex 👏

[@Jelleasy]

Awesome folds imo, thx 4 the vlog bb

68 bluff is very we thought out. Your analysis/game is good. Keep up the good work 👍🏼

[@TheMikey617]

In the pocket kings hand you’ll notice at the end he kinda slams his chips as he stacking after he mucks what kind of indicates that he had strength, I think it was a good fold

[@jacobfoley3846]

I noticed that too. I had no doubt that fold was the right play before, that action confirmed it.

[@aztecwarrior9729]

That AA hand. He had balls that's what he had. That J on the turn though... good fold

[@mycigaradventures8322]

Sometimes when you play AA tricky you have to have the discipline to fold them good job Ozark p.s. that was a weird f****** hand everybody had something on that dry J52 flop smh

[@johnw3034]

What a bizarre hand! How did BTN and SB both call flop and fold turn? Maybe they had A3s and 43s? Weird stuff

[@marjungamon1722]

love watching you play high stakes man.

[@supersham4548]

I don't like the 8 high re bluff on a rec player. When a weaker passive player uses a large polarized sizing I have found that they usually have it. I wasn't surprised you got snapped there. Great vlog. I feel your one of the few who are brutally honest about wins and losses. Posting two back to back losses has to be very difficult. Much respect sir. Keep grinding and the run good will come. However I suggest you find softer games.

[@ESPPoker]

HAHAH Lex you absolute MADMAN with that 8 high bluff. I know getting snapped off did not feel great. You will get them next time.

[@rodr7451]

Love your vlog Lex, but man I didn't like the way you played those 1st 2 hands. You have to jam or raise to commit yourself with KK on the turn and let the chips fall where they may. Maybe even run twice if he wants after a jam. And you have to keep piling money in with J9cc on that turn card. Missed a ton of value with villain having 2 pair. Just my .02 cents. Keep up the good work!

[@rodr7451]

Edit: Make that the 1st 3 hands...lol

[@davehuie7793]

Love your vlogs. You show both winning and losing vlogs which I appreciate. Also why was that buttoning up his shirt when people were walking in. Was this guy walking around shirtless before coming in? Is it that hot right now? 😂

[@erichuston1884]

On the K9 hand where your opponent had flopped the set with 5's you had 2 outs on the turn. You weren't drawing dead, but I think it's important to realize in game if your opponent raises you, what are your outs that are actually clean when they continue barrelling off. Good fold tho and solid play all around!

[@dustin9106]

That punt was hilarious 😂

[@caseyjones3076]

Thx for sharing your losses also. Most the vloggers have never lost a session...

[@joetaylor7442]

[@danieljohnsson1862]

Rough session. But I do like the folds. The AA hand is brutal. I also agree that you are only being called by a hand that beats you if you rip it. A lot of money in that pot though. But I would probably end up tanking myself and just let it go. The bluff is interesting. You really not repping anything but 7s yourself though so I could see you being heroed by A high there.

[@mauricedzwigaljr.3578]

[@davehinkle3012]

Playing a bit to passive in this video imo. I think I would have played more aggressively when I actually had my hand in the spots shown rather than try to be tricky and build up the pot. I’m probably wrong but a small win is better than a slow play and they catch their hard.

[@freakyfrank4303]
