Running Hot, Dragging Pots, poker vlog 176

[@vincentolmos2263]

Happy to be featured shuffling chips like a psycho. ✌🏽

Lol

[@keithb4077]

Doug- it always surprises me to see you playing 1/3. You play (and think) better than a lot of channels with vloggers playing 2/5, and even some of the 5/10s. Keep up your solid growth, good play, and great content. 👊

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks so much for the praise. I am working hard to improve my game and test myself at the next level. The 1-3 game at Capitol is great and I hate to leave a good fishing hole. Texas might be the perfect opportunity to play larger.

[@michaelmclaughlin1958]

Flopping 3 top sets, turning 2 nut flushes, winning with 65 against 53? You definitely were running hot. Not sure I learned much today except that running hot is fun, but I enjoyed it.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I was definitely running great, never won a pot with 6 high before 😀

[@ronlamaster9301]

Nice session Doug. I am happy your running better as of late.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks 👍 I couldn’t miss that first hour.

[@CoolHandC]

Great Vlog and great “run good!” Shout out to Zeus!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Much appreciated! Feels good to run good.

[@fransfermont6193]

Nice run doug, winning there with the 6 high says it all haha. You love to see it! Smooth sailing, nice vlog. 👍👍👍👍

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks 👍. 35 years playing poker, first time I’ve won a pot with 6 high. 😀

[@edburrage6596]

Excellent day Doug. A hot streak is always the time to take advantage of your streak.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

It’s been a while since I ran this hot.

[@davidgeorgecross815]

Enjoyable as always. Great narration 👍

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Glad you enjoyed it. 😀

[@gavinstrelitz1558]

Sun run, nice. Good session all round

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Yes it was! When you win a pot with 6 high, it’s a great day.

[@HuggiePoker]

Nice session! Hope to see you when you're in Texas, Doug!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I hope so too! Will send you a PM in the near future.

[@johnchristopher1260]

You know it's your day when you win with the second nut low...

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

First time winning with 6 high in 35 years of playing.

[@timshaw5963]

👍 Love the Win with 6 high 😀🤪

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Been playing 35 years, and that’s a first for me.

[@ianshirreffs5604]

Keep up the great work Doug!!!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks, will do!

[@JorgeTorresDeLeonMtyMx]

Hey Doug, I am back to watching your videos. Excellent run out as usual!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Welcome back!!

[@JorgeTorresDeLeonMtyMx]

I went on a 5-week vacation to Europe. Back on hustling , Poker grinding at least twice a week. Greetings from Monterrey, Mexico!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

@@JorgeTorresDeLeonMtyMx vacations are great for recharging your poker game. I always feel well rested and energized when I return.

[@RhymesWithCarbon]

Poker is easy when the deck likes you like this!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Yes it is, wish it happened all the time.

[@wayneduckmann5819]

Great vlog. It's cool when live streams have poker vloggers. I hope you get asked. Good luck at tch.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks, I did submit an online form asking to get on their stream. No response yet.

[@wayneduckmann5819]

@@dougmccuskerpoker I hope it works out. Wolfgang is all over those Texas livestreams.

[@joemarks3719]

Nice sun run.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Yes it was!😀

[@nick_rotondi]

those capitol casino chips look so fun to play with lmao

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

😀

[@helenrachel1479]

Nice run Doug 😅

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I ran very well 😀

[@tomblount5635]

Well played 🎉🎉

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thank you sir.

[@jameslinn6918]

have fun in Texas

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Should be fun.

[@5thRiverRat]

Mr. McCusker..... I play at the TEXAS CARD HOUSE in Texas and sometimes in Austin..... Hopefully if I'm lucky enough I'll get to see you there and meet you in person !!! Your fan..... River Rat 🐀

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Hope we meet also. Will know my schedule better as Nov approaches.

[@Fignuts35]

On AJos hand vs the KQos where your opponent showed up with top pair, do you think you might have been a victim of winners tilt considering how hot you had been running that session? Just curious your thoughts considering you felt maybe you were a little too sticky.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Could be, I thought he had a K or a draw…..he had both 😩

[@joshshapiro5970]

Harly said, "really well done and he hopes to be a great teacher like Zeus" He just turned 6 months and weighed in two weeks ago at 98 pounds!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

That’s a good size!

[@joshshapiro5970]

He is a bit bigger than the previous "mini mastiffs"155 and 135 respectively. I think someplace between about 160 and 180. Zeus looks to be a good size too! @@dougmccuskerpoker

[@fluffysheap]

I think at 14:50 you should be betting the side pot for value, no? The guy who has the straight is all in and you can probably beat the other guy who likely has two pair or a lower set. It's possible on this board that they have opposite ends of the straight but the guy to your right isn't really playing like he has a straight.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I thought that the best chance to get his chips was to let him hit when drawing dead. If I try to build a side pot, it would have to be a very small raise. If he happens to be slow playing a little straight, it can be ugly for me.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Sweet taste of victory

[@jasonp2463]

First!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

You win!

[@craigwask6098]

Easy game

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I like days like these.

[@bryanjohnson8162]

Dude that was such an old man fish player thing to say oh well if they fold I got aces I'd rather scoop up a small pot and lose a big one now you got aces and the nut flush blocker You need to be trying to get more f****** value out of that hand guy Don't be ridiculous!!!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Out of position against 2 opponents on a draw heavy board, what sizing would you use?

[@smokinjoe4709]

Austin? Damn, that's about 200 miles down south of here. Maybe I can make it...

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Hope you can 🤞

[@kmdskins]

Do you ever play the 2/5 game there. ?

[@rudenurse2561]

" you smash that 2/5 when running so ridiculously hot..." - Zeus #godmode

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Not often, it plays very big on most occasions and the 1-3 games are so juicy already.

[@kmdskins]

@@dougmccuskerpoker come play in Portland sometime. We’ll play together and I’ll take you to a nice dinner. Maybe a MUG at Portland Meadows poker room. No rake no time charge. $20 daily “membership fee”.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

@@kmdskins $20 is ridiculously cheap! How can the room stay open for that!🤷

[@kmdskins]

@@dougmccuskerpoker they live off of the bar and food I guess. Crazy, right. And the food is pretty good for bar type food and it’s inexpensive too. Great deal. Dealers aren’t employees, they’re “volunteers” and collect only tips.
