You’re a solid player Lex just on a bad run, the cards will come good for you soon enough. Love your vids, showing the real highs and lows of playing poker. Not as easy as people think.

[@timmyp34]

Agreed Aaron, like on the last hand. I would have gone all on with 3 queens and lost it all,you did better by just calling. The announcers babbling about " not playing your best poker", BS.

I am just grateful that we get to see a true inside perspective of life as a poker player. The last 5 minutes weren't whining, it's going over a session which happened to be shitty this time. I just think it's a cool you're doing all this based off of starting at $1/2. That's a huge W in and of itself. wishing you all the run good bro

You deserve major credit for being honest and posting your big losses along with your big wins. A lot of poker vloggers gloss over their bad sessions, but you put your viewers right in the driver seat of what it's like to have a rough night. I really felt for you on that AK vs AA hand. Looking forward to the bounce back sessions. Good luck. 👍

[@truefish281]

he is a real one.

[@joeyp3094]

Most often when you win big it's because you have either coolered someone, have an opponent that vastly overvalues their hands or are taking advantage of calling stations. When you play against better players, #2 and #3 are much more rare. The stations are trappers, overvalues are actually bluffs and someone inevitably will have the deck running against them. Bottom line: if you're a poker pro that isn't a tournament pro, spend more time playing against splashy amateurs and less against livestream veterans.

[@QuickShade]

perfectly said

[@khipperify]

Thanks for the transparency Lex. Seeing you share the good as well as the bad times makes my loss this past weekend more bearable. So when you're sitting in the car sulking about a considerable loss, just know you have supporters out here who can relate to your pain. Keep grinding my guy.

[@ytlongbeach]

Hey Lex, I met you at TCH Austin a couple weeks ago, and that was cool, as I've been following you since near the beginning of your vlog. I think you're analysis is good, and you're playing stakes and games you can beat. I think you're under-rolled, and when the inevitable string of losses comes your way, it causes you to tilt and then your play does suffer [like the bad fold a week prior to this game] and then there's a downward spiral off your A-game. Of course, it's awesome you understand all this, and that is tough for people who are living it. This episode is truly epic for poker vlog watchers. I don't want to see AA winning big pots every hand like some other vloggers. I want to see the ups and downs of real poker life, AND THIS IS IT !! Give that sweet dog of yours, Rogue, a big kiss and nice walk. Cheers !!

[@TheZ350Z]

Happens to the best man. Anyone of us that’s played professionally has experienced this scenario. You’re human man. It’s completely natural to feel that way. Showed significant resolve and strength to leave the game. Extremely hard to do so in that specific scenario. You will bounce back! Keep your head up man.

[@bobbykornhandler1742]

It is amazing to listen to you be as vulnerable and raw and blood-letting open. That’s what keeps all of us coming back as we watch, listen and learn from you. Not only do we benefit from your insights as a professional poker player: your analysis of the game as played - which is thoughtful, based in sound theory and cogently articulated - moreover we profit from your deeply honest self-reflection and felt experience. These are the traits that draw us to you and are those that make you a “winner” in our hearts and minds and that IS what’s most important...the $$$ will inevitably come.

[@KevinJacquelin51511]

So Brad put out a vlog a week or so ago where he lost 10k I think. Instead of letting the tilt get to him or getting down on himself, he took it in stride, took a break for a few days, then played softer games at lower stakes and didn’t film those. He got that 10k back a week or so later. This isn’t meant to come off as a harsh criticism or compare you to other vloggers or poker players because to be a successful poker playing vlogger you need to be authentic. However, I would take that into consideration going forward. Play soft games, don’t film, and just focus on the poker the next few sessions. You’ve made a name for yourself on this channel in less than a year. You’ve shown how skillful you are at poker. But I do believe you can make this next step in your career as far as how you handle the game mentally.

[@johnkotch2342]

Your not alone, Lex! Your right, we do have your back and are here to support you! Keep doing what you are doing and things will work themselves out. The only way to get through a downswing is to play through it. Go get'em, pal!

[@BarryBizzle]

Tough, tough situation Lex. It's a true testament to your level of character for showing us these bad runs too. Massive respect that you walked away from the game there knowing you were tilting. Your luck will turn around again, you know it will. Hang in there, just try to keep playing good poker as you always have before. I love your content and your authenticity. Wish you all the best luck in your upcoming sessions. All the best to you bro.

[@flyzfw]

Playing poker in Texas is hard! I’ve been practicing at the Dallas 1/2 game. It’s crazy because there are a lot of maniacs that have been running out on me lately. I ALWAYS come back to a few specific videos of yours were you discuss these downswings and how to handle it. As long as I keep playing sound poker the run-good will return, I know because you have proven it to us through this channel. So, Thank You for being so honest and sharing these down times, they are infinitely more valuable to us then always flopping the nuts because they teach us about the hardest part of the game, controlling our emotions and managing the variance. Even Brad O took a big loss recently, went back to 2/5 and made most of it back. It happens to everyone. I look forward you seeing you return to your winning ways soon. You are incredible, thanks for the inspiration and leadership.

[@anthonymorris6801]

Lex I am pleased to know that you realize we are here for you and we are! Your vlogs are excellent and this one in particular, because of your sincere honesty, is exceptional. You are a very good poker player who is going through a down turn. It will end, not soon enough but it will. Thank you very much for your frank assignment of your game and most of all your feelings. We will always support your volg. Best wishes

[@mikehaddix9795]

Lexo i watch you on a regular basis you have inspired me to play bigger Stakes. Had a couple of really good sessions and stayed so focused because I was playing higher Stakes and the exact same thing has just happened to me. I was getting great hands that became second-best after a brutal River card and also made a $3,000 fold that is still haunting me today. Things will turn around because your game is good keep the entertainment coming as peons in Florida still watch

[@roadrunnerstill5437]

100% in your corner lex, look forward to your vids every week. thanks for always being consistent with that. I also gamble for a living and ill be the first to say, what lex does is not easy. sharing loses is very difficult when gambling for a living. and its not like lex is on here trying to sell us some crappy corse on how to get rich quick. dude just shares it because he has a passion for the game. Thank you lex, 99% of the people in here wanna see you win, not only in poker but at life as well. GL

[@JayLampang]

Hey Lex, hang in there buddy, things Will turn around for you, we're all appreciate of all your contents you put out, I don't know why people don't appreciated that. Good luck as always sir.

[@FreezingTempest1337]

One thing I gotta say: believe it or not, hearing you express these valid and true feelings on your bad sessions actually make me and many other players like me feel a bit better to hear that even pros who are way above our level also have emotions and go through what we all go through sometimes. Keep your head up, brother. The swing always turns the other way. Just gotta shake it off and get back to the table when you feel fresh. :)

[@alansorenson3501]

Hey man this was my favorite vlog of yours, and your words spoke to me, definitely rooting for you in future sessions

[@202mattboy]

by far one of your best videos yet for me, keeping your composure, knowing its not your night, being able to admit you'r not the best player at the table, your an awesome player and by far one of my faves to watch on KZbin. Keep that Positivity Up, waiting for the next vlog ♣♦♠♥

[@bethesharkpoker]

Brother, i appreciate you showing your true self and the true nature of the up's and down's of poker. The mindset is EVERYTHING in this game. Every time i've been in your current position i'll take a few days off, drop stakes when i come back and just crush my way up in comfort. You got this, my dude! Oh and screw the haters being jerks in this!

[@kellya.5203]

Rooting for you Lex. Thanks for making these videos, I always look forward to them. Cheers!

[@chriszehren3856]

Lex, keep your head up! Remember, you don’t always get to control what happens to you, but you always control how you react to and handle it. You walking away when you are down, handling the run bad with class, and baring your soul in this video to help others who have gone through this and other rough spots is admirable. It’s tough, I know. Two of my last three sessions players have turned or rivered quads on my top set. Poker DOES NOT care. It cares how you handle it, how you play the next hand. Thank you for the VLOG, have an awesome day!

[@sumday3372]

I'm with ya man. I'm on a break right now cuz the sooo sic coolers. I got nobody to rant to, but I listened to your rant. You are right, nobody sees this side of poker untill you live it. Cudo's to you for putting yourself out there. Seeing this helps me deal with my variance issues and helps bring back my confidence to get back at it. Now do what you gotta do to regroup and keep trying, because if you never fail, that means you never tried. I appreciate your vlogs and will be looking forward to the next one.

[@icequeenpoker5880]

Respect for being vulnerable and open. Run bad happens just like run good. You'll bounce back. You're a solid player and I love your videos. You got this. The comeback is always greater than the setback.

I’m in a similar spot when it comes to the mental game. I’ve been here before and will get through it and so will you. Thanks for being so real with us.

[@rosettaspencer7292]

This is a good reality video. This is what people need to be aware of. I've had a huge downswing for a bit. But, not at the stakes your playing. But, it's still the same. I applaud you for knowing when to stop. Regroup. Keep your head up. Play your game. Now go get it. 👍🏽👊🏽💪🏽

[@Dogman_Wang]

[@michaelwillis4532]

I was told at a young age that no matter how bad you have it,there’s always someone else that has it worse than you do. I’m constantly aware of this concept as my nephew that lives with me is blind,has cerebral palsy and he’s autistic and he laughs and cuts up all day long. I’m not trying to downplay your losses and I know it’s extremely difficult to continue day to day with a clear mind and positive attitude after losing your money in these coolers. It’s truly gut wrenching to go through. We love your honesty and we love watching your videos. Things will get better soon for you and you’ll recover your losses. Stay positive and happy. We are all pulling for you Lex O!

[@charuxxx]

Love how real you are lex. You know the swings. Nothing wrong with Stepping down to you comfort zone till your comfortable again. We all do it

Thanks for being real here. I only play 2-3 level and I'm on a 2 1/2 month -5k run so I totally understand your frustration.

[@KizzysoKizzy]

Lex I'm a new subscriber (few months now) of yours, and like you, I'm a former wrestler, and heart of a competitor, and that's why I love poker. I'm fairly new to the game, only been playing and studying past 3-4 years now if that. I must say, I am a subscriber of yours because I admire your videos, your play, and how you explain and think at the table. You show real emotions too, so that is refreshing to see. Sometimes we go through a downswing for whatever periods of times. As long as you are playing at your current best (whatever level that is at the moment) and making the best decisions or EV decisions in those spots you're put in, then don't second guess yourself my guy. Just keep playing your game, adjust, and put work in. Can't print money all the time. Plus you're playing in Texas, no disrespect but that is a major difference from what I've seen how they play in Florida. Texas just is crazier which makes the game a Lil harder in my eyes. I've played in TX before and witnessed it. I'm actually going to Florida to play for the first time and hope I get some run good there at Either Hard Rock or Coconut Creek. I wish you some run good too bro. Sorry for this long ass book that I now just published under your video lol. Keep ya head up bro

[@ryanmaher9995]

Hey man been watching your videos for a while keep up the journey. You have fans all over I’m from Australia and I tune in every week. You know how to play and you know the mistakes you’ve made and the luck you haven’t had. Look after yourself mate 👌👌

[@4BetBarker]

Hey man, been a big fan since your vlog started. I'm mostly a 5/10 player and have been on my fair share of downswings over the years. As much as it hurts the only thing that has seems to help me is moving down in stakes for a few weeks at a time. The money doesn't seem as significant, I can play my game more confidentiality, and I seem to think more clearly. No matter what you got fans out here rooting for you.

[@NewToSea-Doo]

Lex, thanks for posting this. I normally crush the 2/5 home game. Went to Vegas recently and lost $5K playing 2/5 with a bunch of coolers myself (ran QQ into KK, got QQ all-in preflop vs AK and flops A, flopped top two pair vs turned set, flush over flush, etc.), which had me doubting my game. I appreciate you keeping it real and showing all aspects of poker. Definitely relatable. Keep your head up, bro.

[@ercaelis2053]

Keep your head up kid! Lex, you are young and are experiencing "life" moments, the good the bad and the ugly. Coming from someone who has been there and done it, all of this is a drop in the bucket and will soon be forgotten. All you can do is learn, from life, make good decisions (in everything you do) and work hard, and things will fall into place.

[@RaulCamaraGlez]

Hang in there mate. You are a beacon of light for all of us who pursue the dream of poker. Don´t loose your confidence and you´ll see that the upswing is about to come. And also you´re haveng the worst set ups and run outs ever my friend. Keep the tilt away and the confidence in. GGs mate, and best of lucks.

Small message from France. I follow your KZbin Channel since a few months. Professionnel poker player is a hard way. I send you my encouragement. In this difficult times it is essential to protect yourself. Take some day off, play from cheaper and less difficult games to get back to trust. Texas games seem very beautiful but they are also very fast are they are. Thank you at least for sharing us also this reality of the professional poker player.

Don’t ever lose your swag. If you got down on yourself every time something like this happens you wouldn’t be where you are right now. Some nights you just run into coolers and you just so happen to not be playing well either. It hurts, but I know you’ll grind it out. You analyze and get better. Remember, you’re exactly where you want to be. If you feel like you aren’t, keep grinding. Love your content, love being apart of your journey. Keep it up brother. Better Every Day!

I think ALL of us have experienced your frustration. I could totally relate to your reaction. I’ve been on a downswing for a while but just had a win yesterday. I gotta accept the swings. Thanks for sharing

Keep your head up my guy. Wouldn’t be called a grind if it was easy. Upswing to come! 😎

You are bang on! It is rare to hear about 'running bad' / losing cos many people just want the instant gratification they expect poker brings.
