I think you meant July 15th (tonight)for your online meet up game lex. Just letting you know bud

He’s lost so much in June, he doesnt even know what month it is. We’ve all been there

[@kurtsteven6228]

Hey lex can we play on pokerbros in Florida?

keep your head up dude!

[@derekpalmer8286]

Your honesty is quite a relief. This video is real life. Thank you for showing the truth of the ups and downs of poker.

[@christianbache4074]

Heaps of respect for the transparency and honesty Lex O. That is why your vlog is one of my absolute fav ones. Raw, honest and not polished.

[@CJ-xi5gm]

Welcome home ! Look forward to seeing you at Coco when you're feeling like traveling North for some action. Love the humility and good luck getting out of the downswing

[@mkader2494]

Happy for your win! Rogue looks super stoked after that trip to the dog park, he must be thrilled to have you home. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to the next vlog.

[@OriginaldoBo]

Been struggling coming back from bad sessions. This Vlog is so relatable thanks Lex

[@samtraygis1337]

Playing 2/5 from about November of last year til about March is this year I had 9 set over sets.lost with backdoor flushes, lost with full houses . lost with kings back to back ... Lost with aces ,, it was sickening man .. I feel your pain even though your playing higher stakes... I basically just quit it made me so sick... Taking a long break.. so until then thanks for your vids!

[@cameronandrew1853]

This past weekend had set over set, aces cracked by 88, flush over flush twice, and missed monster draws for a loss of 7 buyins in one day. Fml

[@tuanf01]

Good to know there are others getting the bad beats also. It's best to walk away and take a break for a while. Good luck!

[@JKeen88]

Had kings cracked twice today (although once was against AA) the other was against AK villain caught ace on the river. Also lost twice with AK all in to pocket jacks who make a set on the turn.. it hurts

[@jatin100100]

Bro...it is the best and the worst game at the same time.. All the best with your break and keep studying the game 😅😅

[@eshootziscrs2868]

I played one session where I ran two pair vs a draw and paid off the river just to see the A 10 that I called my opponent holding. A little later I flipped a set of 3s from the small blind for a full house 3s and 8s. Turn was a 10 and I got a read on the opponent, checked and they showed me 8 10 suited for the over boat. One round later I flipped a set of 6s on a JJ6 board. Same opponent called. Turned a 6 for quads giving opponent Jack's full. Money in and J on the river. I called it a night. But I've also taken 10 9 for trips all in against J9 and rivered a ten. Relax you guys, people like Rampage can't exist without dozens of others gaining bad beat stories. How come nobody here seems to have even a single suck out story? Come on guys I bet there are are a few. Just don't remember those I suppose.

[@JLRRyan]

Thanks as always for the real. Ive been playing for 20 years now. I still struggle with the balance of not being too splashy but yet not too tight as my ranges will be so capped. Hence, the game we love

[@zsoltszalay4821]

Hey Lex Yes, it's ALL about MINDSET!! 😉 It's pretty obvious that you know how to play poker. If you play bad or good that's simply mindset. ( I'm not talking about set ups and bad beats 😉) Everything else in life is also mindset. How you show up and how you treat and approach different scenarios. Quit smoking? Mindset Lose weight? Mindset Save money? Mindset BTW!! Nice to see Rogue. 😉

[@JohnSmith-ml2zr]

Glad to see you win a session lex. I definitely concur on the run bad times it’s such a hard pill to swallow we’ve all been there if you play long enough. Thank you for being real with us and showing us the truth about how it really is being a full time professional poker player. Looking forward to the next vlog. Sending you all the run good!

[@davidthompson62]

Lex, Nice to see you back on the plus side. I like what you said at the end about mind set and it is true in general. Just keep playing your game and you’ll make back that money and more. On a previous post I told you I’ve been on a month long cooler of about 10g’s. What I forgot to add was that I’m still over 50g’s+ on the year. On a lighter note, I don’t know if I could make it 17 days in Vegas without my little Carin Terrier!!

[@Whodat4126232]

Congrats on 125! Like most, You’re one of my favorite poker vloggers. As you mentioned in your video, you show every session, bad or good, and always keep it real with your viewers! The transparency is amazing and genuinely exciting to watch, keep it up lex I’ve got a feeling this is just the beginning of your poker journey. Love your videos and appreciate your effort:) Keep killing it!

[@no1ghostrider]

Yeah that's really hard life you choose bro, not as easy as it looks. Really good to see how mentally strong you are. Good luck man

[@rrrgaming1485]

There getting to be more "real poker" vloggers on KZbin. But your story telling of you mental game ,your thinking, how your feeling, past situations affect current ones. To me just seems the best still very personable!!

18:57 "He taps the table" is a very gentle description of his action. lol

[@schwerpunckt163]

Great vlog Lex! Thank you for being honest about your losses, it’s not easy to talk about that stuff.

I really like how you explain your thought process. You helped me alot to become a better poker player. Thanks Lex!

[@MarkDavidBlack]

Hey Lex. Thank you for another great video. You know the variance is always something you're going to have to deal with. You really need another way to combat the variance by having another income strategy. I'm not sure if you're already selling merch but that's something to think about.

[@hannah1943]

you are my favorite poker podcaster. you seem so much more real and honest. hope to play poker with you someday and take your Chips.🙃

Great to see Rogue ! Don't let those bad beats change the solid play Lex...enjoy the vlogs as always.

Welcome back Lex. It musta been so sweet to see Rogue !!! If our doggies could only talk....lol. Anyways way to fight back and show the determination. 1 vlog/ 1 session at a time but man #125 what a poker/life journey.

[@GAinJAXONVILLE]

Glad your back home. Rogue missed you...lol ..so glad you are on an upswing..."There's no place like home."

[@Matt-dc8lp]

Best of luck Lex. Bad beats happen but what has made you successful is your constant ability to learn and adapt.

[@DDB_Pincab]

Hi Lex and thanks for sharing. Could you please tell me what type of playing cards are used in this poker room ? They look great, how about the feeling? Thanks.

[@roofnugs3202]

This Vlog F'ing rocks! It goes beyond being entertainment, it's actually educational. Lots of players dream of playing poker for a living and they get sold a completely false idea of what it's really like by most of the other Vlogs on KZbin. Lex really shows you what kind of a gut check it throws at you on a daily basis.

[@JB_FL-q4o]

Hey man I'm a new viewer from Davie, FL here. that's my doctors office background of first clip!! lol. enjoying the content

[@Clipse01234]

Good session Lex. I once heard Doyle talk about being stuck in a game. He said ask yourself "Would I stay in this game if I was winning?" If the answer is no, its time to pick up and live to fight another day. Nothing worse than being stuck in a bad game. If the game is good, you gotta stay and keep battling!

[@bgreen3670]

Keep fighting. This is what separates the men from the boys. However downswings of substantial financial loss require a break to regroup, and decompress. It will shake off the mind set that you are cemented in right now. Find different card houses. In fact the Peppermill up in Reno is starting to see the action it had pre-pandemic. That is due to an influx of California residents moving to the area in the last two years. The room is excellent, the manager runs a great room. All we are waiting for is the Run-it-Up tourney to start again. The last one was set to run the week that everything shut down in 2020 and no word of it ever starting up again has crossed my ears. There are great players, good action and games everyday of the week. They run a 1-2 level, a 3-5-10 level, and now a 10-20 level with winner straddles. We used to have big 20-40, and 5-10, 10-20 before the Pandemic started but things cooled off quite a bit. It is starting to get the action it had pre pandemic, and I know you hail from Florida, but next time you think of heading to the West Coast, make a stop at the Peppermill. You.wont regret it. Good luck going forward.

[@111Jeffrey]

Funny LOL! At the end of your video,you are putting your dog to sleep by talking!😆

[@richardt7132]

great video Lex! loved seeing a video on your perspective on how to deal with downswings.

[@Michael-hr5wf]

Keep going Lex, it's gotta be tuff on the mind, playing knowing the downswing can get big, it must come Into play sometimes taking shots on draws etc for big pots.. It's like when does that run bad end, I'm still on running bad, losing all my flips, most have been ahead on the turn, the river is a bitch. Sometimes I just want to quit

[@joblo2925]

Mindset is everything.. poker is a fickle gm.. keep grindin lex

[@daveshazam7171]

His vlog most accurately represents what playing poker full is like. Other guys have huge sponsorship deals, sell merchandise, get paid appearance fees, have backers etc. lex is just in the streets trying to grind! I think we can all relate to that a helluva lot more than what most of the others guys are doing. No hate on anyone but this is real life imo.

[@BadTurnPoker]

Big Fan. I find a good way to turn around a downswing is to play shorter sessions. Like as soon as you go up you have to just leave. Got ignore the hit run feeling but take a win.

[@robertb2985]

“I’ll throw up on the floor”🤣🤣🤣Definitely been there bro,keep grinding man your a hell of a player,just on a bad run

[@robertbassinder]

Just dont change the approach. Variance when running that high will make you question your analysis. Its slimmer than the 2% variance runouts bc your getting coolered by a slim range. More like getting smacked by a .02% 10 times in a row.

[@marcusbelton5134]

Had to put my baby down yesterday so seeing Rogue really helped perk me up. Thanks for the vid lex

[@marksimpson2321]

I think Lex is one of the few vloggers who is experiencing a downswing. Poker vloggers haven't played long enoigh to start experiencing huge downswings. (Though 18k at $2/5 isn't a big one )😅

[@TheScapegoat420]

Do you think you could walk around with Rouge without a leash? He just doesn't seem like a runner. Just wondering.

[@EricA-xd9fn]

Keepin' it real. Thanks for showing the ups and downs.

[@jvjoe4376]

Humidity and Rouge, the magic is already working. The vlogs are always enjoyable to watch. Running it once, you are a hard ass. You run it twice, you are a softie. Personal choice with the players personalities at table at that time.

[@elcreizzyyyallara_und2878]

Wao my brother looking at this video has made my flash back at my own life and it feels like a reflection of what I'm going through right now with poker hey keep it up and never give up luck will always favor the ones that are good at hart

You said June 15th in your vlog you probably meant July since the video is out only now? Or you're preparing summer 2023! :p

[@shawnchouinard268]

Dude go to the dog track and play some 2/5. Find an easy game you can crush and kill it there for a few days and come back. I did this after a huge downswing and I've been on an upswing for 2 months. It works!!

[@philcummings9525]

Man, i can relate to your vids ...Wish you played here in Colorado ..... your thinking is very similiar to mine ... Love your explanations and emotions ... Saturday ... Terrible luck all day lost every pot and closed my day with Aces in position ..i raise to 110 button calls, SM Blind raises to 420 ... Guy at other end of table flats , i raise to 2 g ..... everyone folds but guy at other end of table ...yes ...9/8 of spades flops turns and rivers a straight ... 3 k loss and i walked without saying a word . a given day it just seems like nothing will win some days.

[@tavogp]

i believe in you lex o . you are my favorite poker vloger i like your positive. i am going thorough a small down swing myself .

[@helenrachel1479]

Good job Lex I know how you feel with the mind set I have been so negative because of constantly losing. I am looking forward to a change very soon 😊

[@ruthlessgoat3702]

It is very tough to consistently win in poker. If you are playing at a table with 5-7 other players, the odds are always stacked against you. Failure is inevitable, so you just have to pick your battles if you want to have a chance.

[@lstruggy]

I’m about 3 yrs into my “poker break” planning coming back Aug tho I’m ready!

[@randysetting5002]

Lex, you rock dude.....Love your vlogs.....

[@BSweetVideos]

Nice win!

[@matthewjohnson5197]

AQcc ur hand actually likes leading for $400 on the river. Either that or slight overbet. Good play. Value hands that lead small (~$125) are low pairs and offsuit broadways with a club or low flopped flushes

[@dmed312]

You're playing online June 15th?? Uhhh, How do I travel back in time?

[@gkb1973]

I actually like the bet size on the AK hand. I think if you bet $350 into $1350, then it could be a bluff inducing bet. So if he jammed river on a $350 bet I might call, however if he jams on the $650 bet you can confidently fold knowing you’re beat.

[@polok890]

Your one of the few making money playing poker

[@markhellie6837]

Great vlog and session. Way to come back!

[@SeanBenson23]

I think it’s just a fold against the straddle’s cold 4 bet with JJ. SB is such an underraised position, so you’re showing massive strength with your BB 3-bet with JJ. The cold 4 from the straddle is KK, AA so often that JJ is just a fold imo

[@taeyoungsin]

How are able to handle the down-swing stress?

Still wondering why the subs are not going up fast. Keep it going!!

[@SithLordLerg]

For the online poker did you mean July 15th? Also I wouldn't worry so much about running it twice, over the long term it's evens the variance out. It's horrible when in a downswing but try to remain positive, you know that you'll come out the other side again soon. More great content, got to see you twice today 😀

[@ericmendoza8474]

Man I’ve been running the same way the past few months 🤦🏻‍♂️ I feel your pain

I was hoping that Lex was offering complimentary rides on his time machine so I could play online with him back in June and maybe get down a few sports bets while I'm there. :)

[@brendonfreeman1]

Due to these added costs, I doubt Lex is significantly profitable without youtube income. Inflation is making travel and eating out so much more expensive than it used to be. I'm curious how much he makes from the vlog.

Great hands! Volume overcomes variance no worries. Maybe drop down in stakes for awhile to decompress and give yourself a break from battling full-time players and Euro GTO crushers constantly which can't be all that enjoyable on a regular basis

[@chefjordanp5901]

Hope you crawl out of this downswing! I firmly believe in the poker community a movement needs to happen where we fold QQ JJ TT even when we have an over pair to the flop and the opponent jams. Yes some maniacs jam AK high but most of the time it’s AA or KK Good luck love the vids !

[@frankincredible]

Lex, you mentioned being angry at yourself when you chopped after running it twice, but would've scooped if you went one time... then later in your outro mentioned working on your mental game? You have to completely separate yourself from results-oriented thinking. Running it once vs running it 5x has a neutral expectation. The results don't matter at all, and of course you know that. So what's the use in being upset that you would've won more by running it once THIS TIME? I usually just go with whatever my opponent wants, with the exception being when I think losing a big pot will negatively affect their game more than losing a big pot would affect mine. Then I'll decide to spin up the variance and go once, hoping I win and send my opponent on tilt.

[@TheRealSurgical]

[@edwardkain5006]

Keep fighting. Easier said than done in a downswing, but keep your focus on your reads & strategy and off of the result.

[@rsku6044]

July 15th lex, June has come and gone. Nice I’d, thank you.

[@aaronkingcto]

The first hand where you flopped a flush, you should have bet the turn. It was the last chance you had for him to not believe your flush and prevented giving him a free card which worst case would have boated him. Point is it was your last safe chance to make any money from him since he can't call the river with any flush that he couldn't call a turn bet.
