Lex, You seemed like you were relaxed and locked in pretty good for the whole session. You are definitely getting more comfortable at these higher stakes from what I have seen from the beginning of your vlogs. It is just a matter of time before you are consistently playing and winning at these bigger games. Mariano is another one of my favorite poker vloggers, and he has a similar poker journey as yours, in that he started playing smaller games and worked his way up to the big leagues and is now a regular at these stakes. You and Jungleman seem to have hit it off well! he seems like a really cool and interesting guy! I hope you enjoy playing with those guys as much as we like to watch you guys play together! Keep Pounding brother! David Ridgeway

Dude is terrible lol. Yeah he makes insane plays/bluffs. You’ve got to realize 75-80% of time your opponent can’t make a hand to call you down(> top two, set, straight, flush,…) w the sizing/frequency his bets represent. And it’s not cuz of his skill level, sometimes you pull off bluff cuz of variance, just happens the run-out unblocks all his bluffs. Just couple weeks back saw him just go crazy in bounty game, up like 1M in first 4 hours. But lost all it in matter of minutes playing the same way.

Lexo! Looked like a pretty fast and loose game as is par for the course at the Hustler. Enjoyed watching and thanks for sharing. Great content and nice opener with the clips from your wrestling and crossfit days. Looking back at your early days in Texas, you had a tough go of it and you battled your way through it. With your competitive spirit, I have full confidence that you will be back in the black in no time. Growing pains when leveling up are just part of the process. You've been there before and made it through by applying your skill and determination. It's not how many times you get knocked down, it's all about how many times you get back up.

[@fransfermont6193]

I would stick to 5/10 Lex (not being results oriented). (those stakes are also more suited to the stakes your viewers play) Less stressfull and you have a good winrate at those stakes and you make lots of profit and a good living there. After a big losing session like this it takes a whole lot of hours at 5/10 to recover, which can put you on tilt more easily or forces you to want to keep playing higher than your usual stakes. Just my 2 cents and not meant to hate or to be negative. Ty for the vlog. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@yannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn]

Great discipline & great mindset, keep it up ✌🏼Wishing you better luck!

[@matthewgary6843]

Lex, I've said it once in the comments and I'll say it again... your idea of "thin-value" and the way you conclude what sizes to bet with it are... conflicting at best. Some how you equate "thin" to mean "max" almost every single time.

[@lexopoker]

You can do both at the same time . If he calls with 77 here like he would. That would be an example of thin value for the max

[@magiciangob]

The "thin" is describing his chances of being best here (say 55% of the time) rather than the size of the bet. If you have an A-hi flush you can bet for thick value, but in the 99 hand you're still winning more than 50% but the value is thin. Doesn't hurt to swing for the fences either way, you're just going to have more variance when you're going thin. It can add up to a huge edge over time and is really effective in low stakes.
