Early bird today, Doug. Lovely bluff, glad you got to reap the hand at the table, too. Great for your image.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I normally don’t show, I made an exception and the reaction was priceless.

[@craigvinet3883]

Thanks Doug! I look forward to your vlog every Sunday AM with coffee. It’s been very enjoyable watching your journey

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Awesome, thank you!

[@Karmageddon85]

Well done! Great awareness to know when to make a move like that. Great vlog Doug!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks 👍 perfect set up for a bluff attempt.

[@beachfraser3747]

Good run of cards, these people play a chunk of cheese, pure punters, you should be making a pile of $$$ , best regards from the UK, Fraser

Action at Capitol is the best around in the 1-3 streets. If you can’t beat it, you should find a new hobby.

[@tomjohns8691]

Very detailed and nice graphics. Be helpful if you can also imclude total number of hours played as well. Thank you!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I play short sessions in general, very rare to play more than 5 hours. I do post a timer in the upper left corner with my current +/-

[@tomjohns8691]

@@dougmccuskerpoker Thank you. Great content!

[@scotttennyson1577]

Wow this out early, were you up all night? LOL. Good job as usual, always enjoy watching your blog.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

It was a late finish indeed, but I messed up on my release time.

[@MarcusRao]

Hey Doug, great videos! I just recently started a poker vlog myself! Keep up the great work! 🎉

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Good Luck, I'll check it out!

[@sarthakmajithia991]

Yay! I have been waiting for this all week 😃

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@ariera9873]

I read somewhere that pocket AA go from about 80% (heads up) winner down to around 42% (3 way). You weren't wrong to price out extra villains with the way you were running/table cred for the session (up to that point) until you improved and improved again!😐🤔🤨😏☻🤠🤓😇 While it is an important dynamic to shift gears, it is an incredible play when the poker gods tip you off as to when to shift gears and decide to hit you with the deck after a long spell of run bad. Makes you look like a genius when the plan comes together also- well played (except you should have let as many villains in as possible to be results oriented 🤣). No better feeling than having a losing session turn around in short order with a couple/few big pots! It's what makes the game and keeps us coming back. Love to see it!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks, feels good to turn around a rough session and get a win. Smaller raise with AA could entice the big stack to call without getting a good price.

[@johnnyblaze8030]

Great bluff Doug on that $2,030 pot OMG🎉🎉

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Perfect set up for a bluff, had to go for it.

[@michaelmclaughlin1958]

That bluff against A4 would have been really difficult for me. Being down $1000 and risking another $1000? Wow, your live reads are phenomenal. Wish I could be near as good as that, but of course I don’t know your opponents as well as you do.

[@ianshirreffs5604]

Nice $850 score never hurts. You played very well, Doug!!! Maybe 2 prime ribs?? 😂 Well done.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Zeus did get prime rib leftovers.

[@Kevinttvv]

Nice bluff! Perfect in your range feel he would have called your straight or more likely would have if it was made don’t know you said he was an action player but rackin up.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

My image helped, his desire to not lose a big pot was another factor

[@Dustin_Platt]

That hand where the opponent had J10 off, the second or 3rd hand? I mean, a gut shot? I don't get it.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

He felt priced in and he is an action player. If I had another 100 or so behind, I think he snaps fold.

[@NorCal_Poker]

Nice comeback! It was an action table to say the least 😆

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Got wilder after you left, fizzled out about an hour later.

[@RobinsonTran]

Fellow poker vlogger, great vlogs just subbed 👍

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks for the sub!

[@apocalypsepromotions7676]

We can't wait for vlog #200, Doug and Zeus!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I will do something special for 200

[@rcook2608]

Always appreciate the hand commentary 👍🇨🇦

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks 👍

[@CoolHandC]

Another great poker Vlog, Doug!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks again!

[@helenrachel1520]

Nice comeback Doug and win thanks for the video😅

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@danielgiordani7625]

The 7/6 Hand was a cool one!😊

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I just had to try.

[@kmdskins]

Earlier than normal. You were up early

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I messed up on the release time. My bad.

[@kmdskins]

@@dougmccuskerpoker no worries, I was up. I watched it right away.

[@loomtasticrainbowloom1305]

Hey Doug! Great bluffed really happy to see it went through. When looking back on it, why did you decided to do so? Is it because you were trying to make something happen? Do you believe you will again if you were winning ?

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I called the raise with the intention of bluffing flush cards and valuing straights. He was hesitant to risk his chips, felt like it would work more often than failing.

[@WINALLNITE]

Loved this one the 7/6 suited hand was sick hood play

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks, I had to do it once he checks back turn.

[@WINALLNITE]

@@dougmccuskerpoker which was a terrible play by him lol all in hand over

[@markg6796]

Nice bluff with 76! 🔥

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I had to go for it 😀

[@ztaher3891]

Ur videos are encouraging man thank you

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

My pleasure, thanks for the kind words

[@spaffron4285]

Zeus is always critical but he had to love that bricked straight draw bluff

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Zeus enjoyed some prime rib leftovers that evening 😀

[@dirtydirts246]

Sick bluff. Love to see it.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks 😊

[@keithb4077]

3:25 - maybe you were used to having a larger stack when thinking about this call. Calling 100 with

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Yeah, wasn’t getting the right price, it was a bad call.

[@keithb4077]

p.s. you more than made up for it with some solid and crafty play on some other winning hands!

[@thomasrichardson-ev1wp]

I hate bomb pots great thought process and guts to win that pot.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Bomb pots are not my favorite, but that hand worked out.

[@joeyp3094]

Forget strategy, that fold of bottom pair for $10 may be the oddest thing I've ever seen. No guarantee you have anything there being you checked turn, crazy!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

It was strange indeed, I would never fold there unless I actually see the hand.

[@gattosazio5778]

nice comeback!

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Thanks you, happy to get back to even after that start.

[@Frosty2211]

Also I hate when Jack ten flops when I have a big pair

[@rudenurse2561]

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

[@Frosty2211]

Great comeback hard to do down 1000…

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Got lucky

[@JayDiavolo]

Hey Doug, are you looking for assistance with editing/thumbnails/graphics? Just came across your channel and I believe it has a lot more room to grow with some tweaks, let me know if you're interested in working together

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Can’t afford one

[@dacgours55]

I’m late to the party this week.

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

Party doesn’t start until you get here

[@richardklein9568]

Doug what are you doing checking AA on a draw heavy board??? People chase and do not like to fold so you need to be value betting your strong hands, why would you let them draw for free or brick and fold??? You are leaving soooo much money on the table. Very large hole in your game.

[@Mike-sr6gd]

Play how you want... If you think he's that bad go to capital and play him and make sooooo much money.😢 I hit a straight flush at stone's today so don't start in on me either

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I agree that value betting AA there is the proper play. I do like to mix things up and take different lines for balance reasons. I play against many of the same opponents daily.

[@stevenmartin2070]

Would love to see a blogger that posts all Losing sessions too. But then probably not enough subscribers like real life poker.

[@mrhumble2937]

Maybe he never loses

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

I post both, I’ve been running pretty good this year so far.

[@chrishenry9540]

I need to cruise out to capital casino and get me some of that douggy dough

[@dougmccuskerpoker]

My money is in action, come visit.
