Which part of the video was extra helpful and fun to you?

[@bentones1701]

21:49 🤪🤪

[@ElJefe0719]

The turn overbet with A10s and your explanation of that exploit. I tend to avoid making these types of bets in my microstakes games without the nuts.

[@24Cristiandiaz]

17:15 Excellent advice!

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

@@bentones1701 Rough but wp. I actually clicked it.

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

@@24Cristiandiaz So so soso important

[@PUPPAXDD]

Won my first ever poker tournament today. Ran pretty well and made some gangster plays. Love these videos btw lex. Keep 'em coming.

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

Nice dude congrats

[@fabo01274]

I won this mtt last week. Was fun to play... i ran well and my bluffs were crucial. this vid helped alot to crush it on a regular basis

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

nice congrats!

[@24Cristiandiaz]

That K9s slowplay happens A LOT in micro stakes tourneys

[@dylanellis7656]

Yep people in the micros prioritize deception more than value and are really really happy to show down Ace high .

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

Surprises like this make us so much money int he long rong though, even though they sometimes just ccatch you off guard.

[@MasterPoucine]

Thanks for these amazing advices 🔥😍

[@robindavis1224]

Maybe u should do the same video with a £1,000 buy in.. I'm sure the results would be very different...

[@losyart]

So when you r at the tables Lexy ?? It would be nice to see you in some Hot or Hot Hyper ideally at the evening .Whats your schedule??? DO you stream all of your sessions cause if so i can follow u through twitch . I just want to say hi and tell you that i love learning from you

[@Rockotron500]

yes thanks for the tips in $2.20 buy-in lol, clown

[@stuhill5126]

Brilliant content Lex. I've just gone through your videos for the last 5 years and you've definitely helped my game which I needed 🤣👍

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

Happy to help!

[@ffallenaangel]

Realy helpfull. Ty

[@jamesdolan-tm5nc]

Hi Lex, thanks for the content and teachings. I really appreciate the insights to help me better my game. As an older player (I'm nearly 40) what realistic expectations can I put on myself in terms of what level I can achieve in this game? My ability to learn new things and retain information is clearly diminished compared to my youth so should I just solely focus on a recreational/semi pro play at micro/low stakes mtt's? My dream scenario would be to convert any profits from this level to put towards one or two live EPT's or similar events(s) every year. Is a win rate at the micro/low stake mtts achievable to fund this?

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

Hey James. That's definitely achievable. I think with age also comes better work ethic, a calmer approach, and less fomo to play high stakes. At least all of that is true for me haha. I think being able to apply concepts consistently already gets you very far. The good thing about it is, if you don't start with too much money and you start learning and just playing rom the ground up you can just see how far you get.

[@cosmincosmin-in6sv]

Hi Lex, thanks for the free content! Can you make a vid about how to do the notes on random players? Or to mention it in a vid that's about other topic? Or if there's already can you point it out? Thanks!

[@LexVeldhuisTV]

Good idea I'll try to incorporate that

[@adrianoalves20]

Great play with the ATs!

[@Eric-tj3tg]

Good stuff, Lex.

[@Cas_98]

Clears up a lot, thanks Lex!

[@jamesclegg5636]

Excellent again. Feel i learnt most from this particular episode. Final tabled last night too. Loving the content and your teaching style

[@dominikdangendorf4259]

Because you speak about showing stacks in BB or chips. That's one thing that I find super annoying, switching between chips and BB. I would love BB only. But i guess no chance for this :(

[@florinsorodoc8544]

It was nice to see some folds and very instructive in general as allways. Nice to see the bigger bet size bluff mindset explained

[@omarmerican9127]

so excited when i see these videos. spin up poker stars and blow another 10 euro hahah.

[@magic-d]

Hey Lex! Are the Heads Up Zoom turbo's still running on Stars? Was my fav game but unfortunately I live in fkn Nederland 😆

[@eveamu1]

Yea they run

[@emdiar6588]

Lex, I hope you won't be boos when I tell you that the phrase ''often times'' is a redundant Americanism. The word 'often' is enough, as it already means ''frequently; many times''. No need to add ''times''. You are basically saying ''Ik doe dit vaak tijden.''

[@keithmccormack7848]

There is nothing wrong or weird about saying often times

[@emdiar6588]

@@keithmccormack7848 I didn't say it was wrong, just a redundant Americanism. Often times = often. It's odd to hear the 't' being pronounced, though. The word is pronounced ''offen'', but such is the influence of American English that I hear some Brits pronounce the 't' these days. 'Often' belongs to the group of words which includes listen, rustle, fasten, bristle, thistle, mistletoe, whistle, etc etc. We all stopped pronouncing the 't' centuries ago. America has reintroduced it for ''often''. Not saying it's wrong. Just interesting. I'm a Brit, but I speak fluent Dutch at the level that Lex speaks English. Occasionally a Dutch friend will point something out about some non standard phrase I am using, which as a non native I would never have realised. I was doing the same, and from a British perspective, ''often times'' sounds a bit 'folksy'. Again, not a moral judgement, just a fact. I wouldn't have mentioned it at all, or even noticed it, were it not for the fact that Lex uses it repeatedly in this video.

[@emdiar6588]

@@keithmccormack7848 I just found this on some American academic language site, if you're interested: ''Even a word like “oftentimes,” which appears in modern dictionaries, seems dated and has musty, quaint overtones. It’s also a term that drives people crazy because of its apparent redundancy. But in fact, the words “oftentime,” “oftentimes,” and “oftime” date back to the early 1400s, and “ofttimes” was first recorded in the 1300s, so they have a venerable history.''

[@MHGFTW]

Here's a hand for anyone reading this: Open from button with 2.2BB You call in BB with 5 7 of hearts Flop comes 5s 7c 10h Button jams 92BB into this ~5BB pot What's your play? Guess what he had... I'll let you know.

[@dennys3092]

Not too happy but call

[@nicor6415]

cant answer cause, you miss a lot of information: Did the opponent something like this ever before? How big is your stack, are bountys a factor, what kinda image are u represting before that hand, is you opponent a nit, a fish, a lag or whatever? Is Bubble a factor? What kinda buy-in, what format of a tournament etc. That u missed out all these infos, just shows that u need pay more attention in the first place. Otherwise its just impossible to get any close to a proper solution. Its like you are asking someone: What do you want to eat? And the Answer is: Food... Not helpful at all...

[@MHGFTW]

@@nicor6415 You can ask for more information without being like this mate. Buy-in was a 3$ tournament, no bounties. We literally just sat down with our 100BB stack. I have seen this guy play one hand where he called a 3-bet, then folded on the flop. My stack is roughly still 100BB. Fair to say he's prob a fish, since he had
