The reason your channel is so successful is BECAUSE of your transparency. Keep being you and f*ck the haters. Your growth as a player since your 1st vlogs is truly amazing

[@Trust_Jesus]

I'm the old school @C G on KZbin! One of the 5 winners of the $1000 give away you did over a year ago! I never comment on your videos but just wanted to congratulate you on how far you've come since that little give away you did! Who would of ever thought you would be sitting here playing against these names! Good job bro!!!

Hey Ethan! I just want to say since I started watching your videos, I went from losing 75% of the time in 1/2, to now losing 95% of the time in 5/10. Sure, I owe Fat Tony so much money I had to send my mom into hiding, but I am still hopeful as I write this with a smile on my face and a Louisville Slugger broken arm ;)

[@robertw8897]

I see a lot of folks bashing on Ethan here. Anonymous poker 'experts'. Ethan does make some bad plays. He also makes some good plays. He has a couple of rings from WSOP, and he has done well in a few other tournaments as well and that is better than most of us. Tournament poker is a mixture of luck and skill. Sometimes, you have a take a chance. You try and limit those chances and to take the ones that lean towards you, but you do have to take that chance sometimes if you want to win. I have won a few smaller tournaments. You don't win by always having the best hand. His vlogs are honest. We all get to see the bad choices that most of us would edit out if we were vlogging it....lol. There is a difference between giving him feedback and just being a d***. Some of you are being d's. And even if he does not play perfect GTO poker, his style works for him overall. His wildness gets him paid off when he does have a big hand. IMO, his weakest spot is not tournaments, it is high stakes cash on a stream. I think he feels like he has to put on a show when it is being streamed and it frequently costs him dearly. //cheers

[@gnelson17]

Well put. I love his transparency. Yes, "sometimes you have to take a chance... you don't win by always having the best hand". His skill set is great and getting better. One day, he will be amongst the pros he looks up to. He is the best Poker Vlog easily! @Rampage Keep going strong!

[@cocoman00]

Wow! You got to the tournament on time.

[@perec8417]

With the A6 hand you have hit the straight. Also with in the last hand he didn’t have AJo but AJs and flopped the nuts.

[@DadbeingDad2023]

I was just looking at that and was like that’s not A high

[@rjsieboldtable]

I would probably have folded my way into the money if possible or picked up a pair. No shame in folding for $13K

[@logansmith4690]

I would’ve def folded the q8 and qj to hold on until the money

[@supersmoo7377]

I’m pretty sure on the QJ offsuit hand, your last hand, that you’re supposed to fold to an EP or MP raise, even with 6 BB’s remaining in your stack. Now if it was folded to you in the HJ with that hand, then you are allowed to jam.

[@williamroberts980]

I echo a previous commentor, your openess is the big attraction.

[@JH-jl5me]

QJo is a fold, but a push if it folds to you there, that ATo call was the big mistake tho me thinks. Overall amazing, keep it up!

[@Scuurd1]

level 17 you said you had ace high but i believe you had a straight! Amazing video either way

[@patrickv6194]

@19:36 It isn't Ace High but Straight with the 6 in your hand.

[@lolfluffy]

And the last hand AJ hearts is somehow AJ off suit

[@PokerJeezus]

The QJ hand with 6bb facing a raise is a fold. You have no fold equity and your opponent at worst will be flipping but often will be 60/40 or 70/30 against you

[@dynammetry4855]

That last hand the other dude flopped the nut flush, just so you know and can feel slightly better.. He didn't have off suit cards, both were hearts. GGs, at least you got those bounties

[@joshuapatrick682]

At some point the bounty becomes meaningless right? It represents like 25,000 chips (assuming you start with 60k) worth of value which means hunting them is no longer a viable strategy when they’re only worth 4 bbs? Or is my logic flawed here?

With only 6bb, you don't have much re-shove fold-equity, so you need to fold alot when someone has already opened.

[@goodvibes7343]

Hey Rampage dont be gutted for going all in with QJ, thats what anyone would do at that situation.. well thats what id do, ive been in same situation in a poker tournament lately my QJ vs AJ , a Q showed up at the turn when my opponent was celebrating lol i beat him n take the pot then he acted like a baby 😂😅, ull get it next time with QJ u have no idea how many times ive seen it beat higher/stronger hands while losing with pocket Ks is so common... i just subbed, cool content GL 🍀

[@guibox3]

To be honest, I would have felt far more comfortable shoving with QJ off than A6 off. Being so close to the money and going out sucks, but you could have gone out with no bounties and been stuck $10K. Only being down $1000 in that scenario is pretty close to a 'win' IMO

[@goodvibes7343]

Exactly, id do the same and wouldnt go all in with A6... as i said in a previous comment ive witnessed QJ beat stronger hands so many times while Pocket Ks lose more often..

IMO, that kinda play is what has made him wild and successful at cash, but likely crushed his bankroll for the wsop. Over the long run, those moves will catch up.

[@Optable]

in high stakes Turbo set ups, even with the best crushers in the world, these games run pretty standard aggressive+, with the higher 3b/4b frequencies against covered stacks to bounty up, and you'll find VPIPs early on are high to build up the stacks for the bubble, which has become more standard early on to build those piles up. You'll commonly see the usual semi bluff spots we may define them as, considered pure value bets in certain spots. I also tend to notice significantly wider suited connectors that show up a ton 3-4 way in late position or the blinds, as so many of these holdings 56+ will crush spots against offsuit Broadways or gapped face cards. Almost non existent overfold frequencies early on (outside of our tighter opponents with decent stacks waiting to pick up some better spots to do so.) But much higher over calling and even limp raising frequencies. Stack depths were also noted as primarily short near the bubble. With wicked fast increasing blinds against these players, strategy before the money follows typical high stakes scenarios such as those limp raising frequencies. What you will also find is how fast they can calculate their equity against likely combos in multi way spots, which is really scary to play against in lower stakes. Koon and Dwan discussed certain spots and how quick they were able to determine their exact equities. Much more turn/river overbetting, and the most optimal strengths being the near perfect sizings based on hand strengths science with majority shorter stacks, and minimal opportunities to wait for any sort of premiums. Before the final 4-5 tables, strategy usually leans towards a ton of 3b folds to 4b and aggressive protection bets. More early street pot building, flop bets leaning heavier towards polar ranges on boards that make us scratch our heads. Ethan's play style will play much better at higher stakes, however it's key to develop a reverse range for yourself against what other players might put you on in a given spot, which the best will use for close decisions on making bluffs or value overbets
