At least it worked for engagement! I’m here from the Bart Hansen video lol

[@Pribylovski]

Not sure if the jam accomplishes anything that 5k wouldn’t but love the heart, always fun to watch bro keep up the grind

[@laartwork]

Or even 2k. He either has it or doesn't. I hope Sam doesn't become Lex-O and out play himself.

[@mattperil6074]

14k into a 1.8k pot with pure air lolz… i actually like Sam a lot but this so so bad :(

[@richardsimmonsjuggernautof9781]

@@laartworkhe’s way better than Lex

[@ssaun2179]

Im thinking about 1.5 to 2 times pot is great. I dont mind his reasoning there though, I think the best possible holdings is trip 10s but dam he just lit 10k on fire

[@richardsimmonsjuggernautof9781]

@@ssaun2179 that’s the one thing I’ll quibble with about him, he thinks that ppl will fold really strong hands all the time, we shouldn’t be trying to get trips to fold, it’s just a losing proposition long term. He’s built up the image where he could do these shoves 20x in a row with ONLY value and it wouldn’t matter, you don’t have to be balanced here, we don’t want to try to get to trips to fold but we do want to win the mix when we cooler them!

[@recPokerFish]

Sam i was playing 5/5 at Hustler last week and one of the players was from Vancouver...ur name came up and everyone at the table who knew your vlog agreed u are a legend...

[@BluffaloSam]

That's awesome, thanks for sharing that!

[@imashokU]

You're inspiring to watch, really love your game. It's clear how hard you work on it. Seeing how you handle the loss just screams to me that you are going to the moon with both your roll and this channel. Keep going!

[@htlmworm]

Just had a big loss myself, it's a really crummy feeling but the important thing is to take a breath and learn from your mistakes. I've been learning a ton from your videos and I can't wait to see you run pure in the future.

[@mikeh7917]

Bart Hanson brought me here, sort of.

[@sammyboy2k2]

hey man just wanted to thank you, I found your channel last month and while I've played for a couple years now you've honestly taught me some things that have massively improved my game and feel more solid than ever hitting the 2/5 table. Mostly stuff pertaining to balancing range(raising with the bottom and top) and bet sizing, stuff that I used to not quite understand and ignore bc the way Doug Polk talks about it makes me confused and wanna off myself.

[@fransfermont6193]

Losing 20k and still having a smile on the end of the video is admirable. (even a sarcastic smile) I am sure i would not be able to do that. Nice vlog except for the huge punt which was still entertaining in a way. 👍👍👍👍

[@goingbackrs7054]

I remember seeing the punt on Reddit a few weeks back and I was waiting on the video. Goodluck on future sessions! I look forward to the next new video

[@attismyth791]

youve won me over - took that in stride excited to see where this goes

[@richardsimmonsjuggernautof9781]

Yea Sam has a great attitude, never lets the swings get him down

[@bobbycookson4087]

Lmao hang in there Sam. That 10x overbet was cray and i absolutely love it.

Bank roll challenge is now under 100k? ... let's start keeping track again

[@GamingIsland62]

Bro saw Tricktime fire a massive overbet bluff and said “hold my beer”

[@TheJNBLs]

this punt actually might make you more money long term. You are a household name in Jacksonville now. Love your content.

[@evandickson4295]

Damn Todd really looked you up with the A high. Just found your vlogs and really excited to dive into them. From GA but really want to make it down to Best bet at some point.

[@gavinslivin5243]

That dude who called u with ace high is the biggest punt I ever seen. What did I just watch??? I wish he was at my table holy shit

[@3qlw4utho3p4ht]

Seems like a Robbie situation

[@Sp33dyBeanz]

@@3qlw4utho3p4ht not even close lol. the only reason robbies became a situation is it was jack high. if robbie called with ace high nobody would think twice. just think shes a fish. ace high is perfectly reasonable to call down with even if its a bit punty if u truly dont think ur opponent has a pair lol

[@jeffshackleford3152]

[@davezajacjr.5494]

I am a new watcher of the vlog. I really like your play style. You are clearly a very good thinking Laggy player. Tough for sure! for whatever 2 cents it's worth(even though you took it down) the K9dd DBBP was way to ambitious. Villian just snapped you off big-time too in a previous hand with A high. in a full ring DBBP those were bad continues on flop and turn. every other hand I've seen on this vlog and other's shows you are a total beast!!!!! Keep it up:)

[@aspiringwhale7306]

say it aint so sam. we love to see it and we all appreciate the fine work you put out there. man ra poker loves this place.

[@jarrettcraw1628]

Hey Sam! Will you be in Orlando or Tampa at all or just going to Miami? When are you going down?

[@reecedover3492]

Sam hope you see this mate all the way out from Aussie, you are an incredible player very studied and versatile. I grind 5/10 here and think I’m top of the food chain, please don’t come to Australia LOL. Your play with JQ is absolutely beautiful, stakes don’t dictate a 10x overbet in theory. I’m sure you would have bet the exact same with k10 kk k6s, although k6/56 would have been better candidates for the line still perfectly executed especially the way your opponent played 106. Playing this deep you would expect opponent to raise flop or turn with value to get it all in by river, instead he is aggressive fish and you just ran into it buddy! Keep it up awesome work

[@maxwellman6055]

keep it going sam!!! your journey is amazing to watch.

[@iandonahue7732]

Love ur videos and the attitude !! Ur a great poker player man

[@BUFF4LOSOLDIER]

Ouch. That one hurts. Gg dude, better luck in the next one

[@logansmith4690]

With the T8 vs AJ how does he call all 3 street??

[@MikeKoler]

Say what you want about the line but for Sam to have the balls to vlog and post about this says a lot. Love watching these vlogs and he’s probably the most skilled vlogger out there. We’ll be seeing more of Sam that’s for sure 💪

[@shahabshirazi6441]

Have you given 10x bet sizing to a solver with similar hands and it liked it or was it just a pure exploitative play? It’ll be interesting for me to know. Thanks for the content. Hope you’ll bounce back soon.

[@pawnee68]

Love your content. thank you for sharing. Keep grinding.

[@drewmartin6240]

I think even a 2 x pot bet on the river forces villain to just flat with his boat since you have an uncapped range, it’s no merit in shipping in that gross of an overbet when his draws are gunna fold to any sizing and his value hands are going to look you up excluding kx that might think about it, it’s hard to be linearly balanced in this situation because would you really be going 7x pot on the river with kings full or 10s full of kings, or does 2 x sound appropriate since you’re targeting a range that you block so much of his value. Anyway I like the heart and the acknowledgment that you have all the strongest hands in range but it just doesn’t warrant that sizing to accomplish what you’re trying to. Keep grinding bro

[@TheNow_Now]

Just consider the punt an investment that will get you invited back any live stream! Sounds like a good investment to me 😉

[@jerezmercado498]

Ouch that’s crazy sam but i give you credit for that gutsy bluff moves ✌️✌️✌️

[@megandugan2185]

Huge fan of the vlog man, you’re very entertaining. If you swing through Tampa to play on your way down or up from Miami. Tampa hard rock has some really good/underrated games for Florida poker. Keep up the good work man.

[@jimallinx]

Respect for going for it bro. Better luck next time and also be careful in that parking lot at night!

What was up with leaving the table after you shoved river with the 98 before your opponents had made a decision?

[@tiki4rafiki390]

what.. villain called dude

[@richardsimmonsjuggernautof9781]

@@tiki4rafiki390 I watched the live stream, after Sam shoves he leaves the table before the players have acted, Carson tanks briefly and then calls when Sam is still outside of the table area..

[@Nicname]

Sam, a couple of questions. What camera setup do you use to film at the table? Also, how do you take notes for recorded hands? I used to make poker vlogs and have been thinking about getting back into it. You're an inspiration, brother. PS. Went back to the beginning and am watching from vlog 1. Through three vlogs, I love your play style even in the 1/3 streets.

[@FletchVids]

That man really snapped off your river jam with ace high?!?! What did I just witness

[@diewortmanufaktur7067]

The 10x overbet is pretty sick!!! But I guess that‘s what makes you so interesting to follow! You only need to adapt to the better players and overbet jam your medium value hands and then it‘s all good! I still don’t get it, how fearless you play! Absolut inspiration….but still think, that you must have some kind of background financial wise… or maybe you are just a pure sicko 😜💪🏼🔥!!!

[@digitaldavid5633]

It would be cool to have you do a recap of lessons learned here with different hands that we watched. Like a review looking back, and biggest lessons learned from the vlog.

[@conraddewey1709]

Still love your videos and always hate to see you lose money. But you are good enough to get it back. Scale 1-10 how much did you want to throw up after that huge loss?

[@hazardousmhmc8270]

nah that jam was fucking fire, i love it. I've seen u do it tens of times and it work, and next time you'll have it and get snapped off, keep playing like you.

[@PeterPiperPickin]

A 7.5x pot overbet jam? I have binge watched every one of your videos this past week and I know you’re really good and you love those overbet jams. I do love some fancy play syndrome myself but I just think it’s a little reckless pumping 15k into 1.8k. Looking back I really don’t think you could ever say you liked that line

[@nicholi2789]

Without a doubt the worst feeling in poker is firing a massive all in bluff on the river and your opponent doesn’t even give you a short courtesy tank. Instead they just snippety snap you off. Rough one for sure. I was watching it live.

[@MiamiMike1793]

Is bestbet just a best buy that went outta business because that’s hella clever

[@Vikingguy187]

Tough breaks man. I know you'll be thinking about that for a long while. Losses like these can be devastating. Take some time, get your mental game back and then move forward.

[@dok599]

3:29 - you say your value range is so strong here, but when the board double pairs, your value range also shrinks tremendously... I guess in theory you need to have bluffs here but opponents just tend to get so sticky here

Takes balls to post this. We all implode sometimes. Learn from it and carry on👍

[@brendonenlow2056]

Absolutely love your content and think you’re a great player, but the 10x overbet is just flat out wrong and ridiculously bad. You accomplish the EXACT same thing with half that sizing, or even a third of that sizing. I find it hard to believe you make that same bet with KK or KT. But I’m sure in hindsight you realize the mistake. One of the few mistakes I’ve seen you make literally ever, but a disastrous one. You’ll bounce back 💯

[@masterhakk]

It just looks like a player being overly aggressive

[@reecedover3492]

I disagree, I think Sam would use this exact sizing with KK, K10, but possible not 1010 blocking calling hands like 10x. We saw Sam do this exact line a few episodes ago with flush 10x overbet $500 pot but he had it and got called, just unfortunate, this line gets folds from all Kx and even counterfeit K6s. The players range should have hardly any 106 k10 as played. Playing so insanely deep against an aggressive opponent he should definitely be raising the flop for protection/semi bluff, and/or raising turn for pure value to get it all in by river against sams strong hands such as Kx aa combo draws

[@patrickdippel7336]

@@reecedover3492no that sizing with Kt , I don’t believe it

[@ismaelgonzalez9515]

I agree 100%, he’s gotten away with a few over bet bluffs because ppl haven’t been trapping him as they should when you have someone who overbet bluff a lot. If I’m these guys I would def check my stronger hands knowing I can 3! If needed or call a Jam. He literally accomplishes the same folds with betting 1.5-2x pot. But 12x! Your only getting called by hands that are crushing you. He’s gotten too cocky with that move. N you can lose your bankroll 3-5 sessions tryna be cute.

Make the decision and hit variance back to back they have it...Thought process correct but the variance was in play......Sam, lmao people gonna spit some trash but you had the balls to step in the ring to fight.
