The 97 call was absolutely incredible. I know you’re not always good there, but your ability to stay clear headed and problem solve on the river is really amazing.
My exact thoughts. Not until I started playing live poker did I realize how much harder it is to think clearly and stick to everything you’ve learnt in the moment it matters most. His thought process in that situation shows exactly why he deserves the success he’s had!!
Honestly I would have probably made the same exact call the hand made no sense the way that guy was playing it and curiousity would have got the best of me also the pot was 40k and he went all in for 18k so it’s good odds don’t need to be right all the time. Great call Mariano
You're so sick man. Some plays you're making and the thought process behind are truly remarcable, no wonder you managed to go from 1/3 to nosebleeds in just 2-3 years. I've been watching/playing and dealing poker for 13 years, and I rarely see someone that makes me go "wow". Saw your progress all the way since the begining and you're a big inspiration for me. Thanks for taking your time to work on your vlog, love every bit of it!

As someone whose been playing for 15 years and played for a living for a few of those (back when it was way easier 2010-2012) I 100% concur with this assessment. For playing 3 years the kid is just unbelievable.
The greatest thing about watching your videos, is your logic makes sense, for any stakes. Just different amounts of winnings or losing. Your such an inspiration to the "little guy". Thanks for your videos.
The moral of the story “don’t bluff Mariano 😅” As the smile suggests in the outro, hard fought battle, coming out on top at the end. Good job dude. As always, enjoyed the content, and Go Argentina 🇦🇷
Amazing call on the 9/7 hand. As a small stakes rec player it’s fascinating listening to your thought process and amazing you have the balls to go with your read there. I’ve watched you from the start and witnessed how you have improved monumentally! Plus your content is the best out there. Massive respect from the uk
Another great video. I really appreciate the breakdown when you're thinking of making a hero call. It's really helped me in my own game. Trying to put the puzzle together in situations like that is something I had been lacking. You da man!
Love your vlogs and “happy holidays”!! Great play w/ the call with 9,7!! It’s definitely not an easy call and what a great read on your opponent!! Keep up with the good run!!
Best moment: 24:00 exhausted Mariano, collapsed on the table, waxing philosophical about the hands and sessions. Too tired to be funny or irreverent - just "Wow, that was some serious poker with some weird hands." And importantly, Mariano, you get that the excitement in poker is not cards on their backs, flipping for $500k. It's when you're trying to figure out if you're good 25% of the time when mere mortals would have folded long ago. That's what makes your sessions and vlogs so good.
You made a really great call with 97! You are definitely my favorite poker vlogger! I really feel like you are the most solid player out of all of the ones that I watch! I respect your game very much! I hope to be as good as you are one day! Keep up the great work!
This is a great Vlog. I love to see your hands analysis and logic behind every decision. By the way, you have made me a better player and my Army friends fear me. Hope to meet you at one of your meet up games when I get back.
man, it's crazy to see these poker vloggers that i've seen grow. I remember watching Mariano play low stakes at Morongo, now look atcha boy. May your future be full of heaters!
Damn good called on 9,7 bro. What a fucking read! I would have folded along with 99% other players. You're the man. It's true of what real gamblers say ... you play the players and not the cards. I knew that you're one of my all times favorite vloggers bro. Great job... well done ... CONGRATS 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
I agree that some recent hands have been super tough, tricky, unique and you make a well thought out decision each time. Calling with the 79 vs AQ was awesome. Congrats on this one being a W after all of that action!
You and rampage have the stones, but your thinking is clear. I'm sure the biggest players in the game have you on their radar. It's a pleasure watching you work
You’re such a sick player. it’s literally amazing to watch. You’re becoming one of the best analytic cash game players out there. I wish you would start playing tournaments even though you always say you’re not fond of them you could accomplish so much in a very short period of time imo. Everyone loves you. Keep it up
That call with 3rd pair is insane. I don't know how you did it. I am really not even sure if it's a good call. It's an obvious deviation. I mean, he has the absolute perfect hand to be bluffing you with. Ac to block the flush, and Q to block the straight. You kind of disrespected him there tbh. You should probably send a Christmas card and a nice gift. lol
Wow, awsome hand against JU. No way I would have been in a hand with 9 7. I did enjoy your perplexed face while thinking about the all-in. Thank you for sharing your thinking process as it really helps to consider things I don't normally think about. I'll be replaying this one several times. hehe... Also, congrats on Argentina winning. I hope you didn't loose your voice after that great game. Thanks again.
I have watched you from the the jump. Your game as increased with every vlog. I dont understand it , but wtg...keep up the great play. And thanks for the vlogs..... they too have gotten much better.
Great video! But I still curious about that 79s hand, why didn't you consider him as a KQs (club) ? Could you mind help me know about more details? I 'll be really appreciated.
I'm too lazy to watch the video again to confirm if Mariano said this in his analysis, but I suspect he felt that a hand as strong as KQcc would have check-raised all in on the turn. It had only the smallest amount of showdown value, but tons of equity. Seems like a great candidate to bluff shove (assuming stack depths were reasonable for such a play.)
The 97 call was absolutely incredible. I know you’re not always good there, but your ability to stay clear headed and problem solve on the river is really amazing.

@@GH_TeamAce I would have made the call too but he would have had the nuts
I would have been wrong and instafolded the winner. Lesson = pause & think
that 97s hand was absolutely wild.. what a call
I didn't know you guys like poker, awesome!
Absolutely sick call. Jaw dropped.
your back story is crazy. Watching you play low stakes to these stakes is sooooo inspirational especially in less than a few years!
The vlogs lately have been absolutely insane and a lot of great hands. Thank you for your upload

In my opinion, you deserve poker vlogger of the year. You have made some amazingly good videos this year. So interesting.
But Brad Owen 🥺
fuck no??? I like Brad Owen too, but to say put Mariano OR Brad over my dude Ethan (RAMPAGE) is ABSURD!!

Sick ass puppy. Love how you take the time to think through all these tough spots and explain your thought process on here. Great call.
I do not know how you remain so clear headed. Even if sometimes it doesn't work out for you. This VLOG was worth the watch for sure.

Calling with the 79 vs AQ was awesome. Congrats on this one being a W after all of that action!

Pretty sick video here. Thank you, Mariano.
As my UA-cam auto picks my next video, I always know within 5 seconds that it’s a Mariano vid… that dope intro music though. So good
I love your hoodie, how can i find him? Whats he called?

Great plays. You really go for it and have big swings but that's how you win!

Thank you thank you
Thank you Mariano ! Awesome video, I learn alot from you sir!!!
hell of a call with river 9 gg

Great call with the rivered 9 dude.
Wow. Amazing call! GJ
The T8 hans was my favorite. Such a great play to turn it into a bluff
That pair of 9 call is Sik, just the thought process is awesome - thanks for sharing =)
I've seen you make some pretty amazing hero calls. But the call with the pair of 9s to the board was brilliant.
Great Call
Bro where you get that hoodie?
SICK call!
Another outstanding vlog 👏👏👏
Happy Holidays and Peace in the NY
wow the 97 hand was so sick!
Btw Mariano what do you do to learn poker? Can you share it in a video?
