Riding the Roller Coaster | Poker Vlog

[@ilovebrandnewcarpets]

I picked up on this channel a year or so ago, but just this weekend started watching the first vlogs. It is LOL hilarious to watch you play 1/2, and then click this and it's "yeah it went pretty good I won $22,000" lololol 🐐iano

I’m wondering if you would have any idea on how to find a backer. I do fairly good playing poker jus don’t have enough backing to be able to handle the swings or the by ins to some of the bigger tournaments that I play. It’s hard only having one bullet when most the ppl you play with have unlimited by ins. Jus curious if you knew how to go about finding someone. Thanks bud

I've been going back and watching your beginning vlogs.. you gave many wins early on. At what point did you feel you made jumps in stakes? Would love to know! Thanks as always.

[@MarianoPoker]

Around 12 months ago I started trying to move up as fast as possible. But that approach is high risk, high reward. Not recommended

[@hymnofashes]

Every poker pro says this: I moved up too fast, took too many shots, wouldn't do what I did!

[@aznpokering4184]

@@hymnofashes That's because a lot of the ones who do that don't get the chance to even tell people not to. There's a ton of survivorship bias because you don't hear about the guys who took too many shots and didn't make it. For all the Garretts in the world there are 100 others who crashed and burned.

[@hymnofashes]

@@aznpokering4184 yep. If you run hot and then get an overlay of a KZbin channel or you can sell books or courses, you can use that income stream to get coaching and catch up to the autistic zoom grinders... At least far enough to crush live high stakes games that you can use your personality or reputation to talk your way into. It's a narrow path but some can take it. There are very, very few "pure" grinders who just did nothing but play poker and move up and now live well. Especially not in today's games. Maybe 12 years ago. I'm not saying poker is dead or some shit like that, but we're talking about making fuck you money off skill alone, and while that is still possible, it's the hardest hard way and you're probably going to need considerable talent as well as catching the right transitions at the right time in your life. Much easier to turn yourself into a brand/business. And far less dark/lonely/monotonous.

[@boojay7076]

I think you burned money 4 ways with aa, also one of your outs “ace of spades” opens up flush possibilities, playing out of position aswell… you will sometimes have to hit runner runner if your up against flopped straights. Not to mention the difficulty of playing this OOP against 4 players. I think it’s better to give up and use the $120 for future EV.

[@QuintBlitz]

"If you got it, you got it" Think I have never won a hand at showdown after saying that..

[@user-qu8rh3ib4p]

the last time i said that the guy had a royal straight flush

[@Jermo484]

The AQ straight hand is an odd river sizing to me. Wouldn't a smaller bet just always be better? He probably isn't ever calling the $3000 with worse than a Q and if you bet something like $1000, isn't he just going to raise you to $3000+ if he has a Q anyway? Then you make at least as much against a queen and still make something against two pair or a set (or maybe 87). Unless you have some very specific, very consistent read on this guy that he'll just always flat a less than pot bet with second nuts or won't ever call with a weaker hand here anyway.

[@anthonyp5863]

No. He isn’t. Calling with anything except a Q anyway so why not fire big? If you can bet 2x pot and get your opponent to fold the second nut straight you will be able to abuse and exploit him sooo much in future hands. You also have to do the math. If he calls 3k 50% of the time you make 1.5k. If he calls 1k 75% of the time you make 750. Easy

[@feaster8417]

I'm curious about your comments on the AA hand early in the vlog. When the board came 765 two-tone I feel like aces are still very much in the lead a lot of the time, even though you said that you likely didn't have the best hand anymore. Overbetting to take down the pot makes a lot of sense to me, as further streets have a lot of opportunity to improve your opponents hands. Am I wrong for playing like this in these spots?

[@alec4262]

I don’t think you’re wrong. Usually that’s a draw heavy board and I think it’s important to heavily charge your opponent for those draws depending on who you’re playing against of course. I’m not a pro by any means though so would like to hear others opinions!!

[@eddyshasha1996]

The way I see it is that a over bet (maybe not as big as he did it) is giving strong draws oes + flush a bad price to call. If they do, he makes them play a -ev move. On the next two streets it’s very likely Mariano has reverse implied odds as his hand has very little shot of improving. That’s my two cents of why I big raise here makes sense

[@GraceAlder99]

Your around 50% Vs four player's. So bet or checks cool. I'd prefer your line all the time.

[@manlyminnesotan]

Wow, did anyone else have a small stroke during the intro as I saw the $5.29 a gallon gas price behind Mariano? Guess we're spoiled here in the Midwest with $3.59 as the average!

Hey Mariano, I see you don't vlog all your playing, and quite understandable it is, but what I would love to see is your month by month breakdown of your profit and losses.

Most poker vloggers, including Mariano, share that information periodically. Either annually or semi-annually and they typically show their wins/losses by month. I have never seen a poker vlogger share updates like that every month. But who knows, maybe someone is out there doing that.

[@life2.0beginandwin67]

@@markjklein Ofcourse, but, I truly find it fascinating, and also one of the hardest things for any human to stomache, and that is the swings in "no limit hold 'em". And it would be neat if someone was to do it on a monthly basis, and talk through the pyschology of how to handle the down swings mentally, and even how to handle large wins...i.e. not going out and blowing the winnings on coke, and hookers.🤣🤣🤣

Hi, from Spain

[@mycommentpwnz]

Your opponent who called off 3k to split a 1.2k pot isn't very bright. I mean, that is POKER 101: Never call massive over-bets to potentially SPLIT a pot. Mariano might have been bluffing on the turn, just REPPING the queen when he bet 500$. HOWEVER, once the RIVER WAS A BLANK, his "bluffing" potential went down to about 0%. Nobody bluffs into the second nuts.
