A couple weeks ago on the last hand of the night I ended up in a 3 way all in with pocket 5’s in a 1/3 game pot was about 2k and they held up without improving. I’ve only been playing 2 years and I don’t get to play as much as I would like but I’ve come to realize that being fearless is one of the most important parts of this game. I have a awesome career so I get to play without really worrying about the money so much but I study the game all the time and do my best to fix issues in my game. And you UA-cam guys are the reason I even started playing. I figured if you guys can do it so can I.
Yep. Especially with the flop, there’s really no stright draw so only flush draw and both players having flush draw seems unlikely. It’s more probable that one player has insane equity like A3hh and another has something like QQ or TT, KT, AT etc. all of these have more than 70% combined equity aginst JJ. Hell, A4 or A3hh has 55% equity to JJ’s 45%. Even with a drawing hand you are only flipping.
@@Seriously_sirius2, I played once over 7 years ago, it sucked. If you don't speak Spanish, it's not any fun. I've more on my trips to Florida. I live 5 hours away from San Jose.
Wow, I couldn’t have done it myself. Even 2 action players have it occasionally. Did either one show their lower set? It’s about time you had some good luck too. Keep plugging away
Well done fella much needed, no one more deserving. Much love fella keep it going. You have been my go to after work, cold beer laptop on and watch Lex o ..x
Lex! I was yelling at the screen for you to fold! Then you went all in and I just about had to turn off the video! Congratulations on your win!, I was so stressed out! I wish I could hit the thumbs up a 100 times! Enjoy your weekend!
That call with JJ at the end struck me as pretty light. In a three way all in you're almost never good there. You needed to hit that set to win 9 out of 10 times
I agree...hell I fold two kings in that spot easy. Without flinching. And he doesn't have the jack of hearts...meaning one of his potential outs completes the most obvious draw. He got super lucky...
I think we can pretty confidently call vs the original jammer since it's unlikely somebody just rips it with a set with under 2 SPR and he is very capped pre-flop. The raiser coming over the top makes absolutely no sense. Why raise the big overbet with a nutted hand when you can flat and try not to scare Lex off? If we think he is almost always putting in the 4! with QQ+ I think JJ is usually ahead vs this player. It's an uncomfortable spot but both players are not playing this like they have a set and they almost never have overpairs based on pre-flop action.
Impressive play with the JJs at the end... What did you put them on? I figured one had a set (maybe top top) and the other a flush draw with such a disconnected board. Or were they just that loose that 2 pairs were possibilities on that texture? I think I fold there assuming I'm no good and lose out on all that profit.
Broooooo if you played yesterday record it and make like a 50m long vid of two day I love watching you bro. Keep up the good work I’m 20 years old and when I turn 21 I’m going to start making vlogs you inspire me to do that!!
Nice vlog as always love yr content...I was curios wht the players had in 15k pot..I mean it was obviously right call but how often are you ahead on tht flop with overpair agaisnt 2 opponents specially when over pair is one higher to the flop...nice hand though would u say reason u called was cause u were stuck and wanted to get it all back and then sum... lol... in just wondering in case I'm in tht kind of spot..Is it really a call there or should you be folding??
Very nice huge pot there with the JJ, its a thrill when you know deep inside this is the dream spot. Two action players with wide ranges have comitted all their money and you are likely ahead in a massive pot. The 56cc hand though was a big punt imo. You described the player as a tough sticky reg, and i dont think going off with zero equity bluffs for stacks against a sticky callinghappy player is a good adjustment.
Can’t you just see the old man sitting there saying, “Nice catch, kid. Keep it up and you’ll be broke by Christmas.” Of course there’s nothing sweeter than getting all your money in bad and then catching that two outer for the win.
Tough play on that call although he was smart waiting 2 minutes to get a strong read. I recommend Wim Hoff breathing you'd be surprised how much it allows you to control your heart rate once you start practicing it. You don't have those spikes in your heart rate anymore. And very good breath control because you have trained your body to saturated oxygen and you'll be shocked how long you can hold your breath after a while. Of course I'm not recommending you hold your breath during a poker hand but it's all part of the training. To new viewers I'm basing this on all of his comments from previous videos and having been someone who's watched every one of his videos
That's a great call. You really know your opponent in that spot. I mostly play 2-5 but I dont think I would ever call there. Great way to rebound from the prior 2 sessions
@@scchicago5822I think the first to shove had something like top pair or 34 for open ender. Next to shove realized he could be bluffing and tried to isolate with maybe AT or 99. QQ maybe but not likely. He shoves for 4500 and lex was only 1500 more and he didnt even snap. I think JJ was likely good
@@logansmith4690 I agree. Overpair to JJ doesnt seem too likely in that spot. Lex being a solid pro, I think he knows his opponents well enough they would overvalue/turn their hands to bluff in that spot.
That Call with a single over-pair against an All-in + re-Raise was a tribute to your underlying bankroll management. If that was your mortgage or rent payment for 3-months, you'd have had to grudgingly fold. Glad you have the resources to withstand $12,000 swings.
I might be wrong but I’m guessing the hijack had a pair with one heart and the button player had a 10 , so I don’t see why this was a bad call and how Lex got lucky ?
I would never have called with JJ there. Good payday to reward your courage there!

Jj wasn't good until he turned another J. JJ never good there. Most nits can't fold a overpair
So what? It's the casino, there will be more people playing. I think it's a little different at private or home games.
He has no obligation to lose their money back to them. Hit and run is annoying, but it's part of the game .

Not worrying too much about the money makes you fearless. I understand what you're saying even though it's a little bit contradictive
I swear it’s like I finish a vlog and he already posts another one. Thank you 🙏
You’ve come a long way in poker. You aren’t playing scared anymore. Love it!
Lex, you’re a master storyteller! That said, I’m folding Jacks to an all-in and 3-bet all day long.
No kidding. He was very fortunate, but kudos to him for pulling it off.

Love the honesty! It’s a tough game.
You’re awesome bro! Good decision makings under high pressure. I hope you continue running great! Keep playing better.

Wow that 56 hand is insane play I definitely need to play poker for a living lol
A *bad* insane play…
Great video Lex! Nice win!
Do you think it’s a good call, JJ ? Serious and genuine question
Always Great to see You win Lex 🥳
Nice play Lex, I watch all your videos!!!
That's awesome Lex! Congratulations 🎉
Congrats! I did NOT think you would win the JJ hand.
Damnnn 22k in 2 days. Great job buddy 👍👍👍
Congrats brother! Awesome session.
What a gamble!!! Awesome win lex!
Congratulations!!! Other than that 5-6 hand, you played well.
Nice work Lex and good luck in the next one! 🍀
Nice Pot!! Scary call on with that action ahead of you.
Whenever you run good and win money it makes me feel genuinely happy inside. Hope you read this and feel the same.
You got some serious balls.
I figured you would be back in black soon. You were playing good last 2 sessions but got a lot of cooler hands.
Let’s goooo Lex!!! Huge huge did you get to see their hands on that big hand did you need the Jack?
Nice win. Way to get back on the winning side
So glad to see you profit brother. Keep kicking ass and producing awesome content. Definitely the best vlog out!
Good for you, Lex... Great attitude rewarded.
Keep it up man! Nice dig out!
Great jam vs J9. most people are snap folding. Keep running good!
Great comeback!
Nice win Lex. It feels good to run good ;)
Congrats, great job happy for you
Love watching you bro. Get that 60k! Love to rouge.
You got me sweating that 15k pot lol
Nice man, the adrenaline must've been flowing!

Congratulations on setting your new personal record in a 5 10 game. 👏👏👏

I am so happy for you after the running bad
Wow Lex, You're The Man. 👏
Nice Lex, keep it going buddy.
Imagine you didn't call then you see J2 come. That's how you tilt over the next hour and go broke anyway. Nice catch!

Enjoying the ride
Great sess Lex!!

Nice cash Lex, you deserve more subs. You need to put some shorts out there. That will help...😊
Great vlog my guy
Calling those bets with jacks takes balls! I would've folded for sure, but that don't ask about my career earnings lol.
Awesome redemption my dude!

"This guy is really sticky and doesn't like to fold."...... proceeds to attempt a large bluff on this guy lol
Damn you’re a savage man! I’d have snap folded those jacks with all that action in front.
Did you find out if you needed the third jack or not?
Nice win, Lex. Did you ever find out what the other players had?
good job Lex!
wonder what those two action players had at the end. did you get your money in good before you hit a set of Jacks?
I might be wrong but I’m guessing the hijack had a pair with one heart and the button player had a 10 , so I don’t see why this was a bad call and how Lex got lucky ?
JJ love to see u win
Sick All-in at the end to turn the J and win it! Wow!
Maybe try to put together some shorts and see if you can get some boost in your followship :)
Wow! I thought you were up against a set and a flush draw with over cards. Gutsy call Lex!
