Great video, thx. I am very surprised when you checked on the river when you made a flush with 7-10 of clubs. In my experience when the river gets there and changes the nut hand most aggressors will check back.
I watch quite a few of these vlogs from various people. It amazes me how many hands they hit. They seem to play 8 hours or much less and hit more sets than I hit in 40 hours.
Well that’s all they show you really… it’s like watching WSOP .. you only real see the brutal hands b.u.t. In actuality they have played for 10 hours and folded 1000 hands
One more thing…when listening to the action pre, I was thinking a big 3 bet is prob best. Going multiway oop w KQois a recipe for disaster. Personally I would 3bet big pre and go from there. Gotta thin the field in this spot
You put out a lot of great content, thank you. Yeah, first hand was an easy fold with A-A on the river with the sigh raise. Actually not sure about the $500 bet itself….
Hi Lex. He does have some bluffs here, AQ with the As or AT with the As. Something like QT with the Qs is also possible. Or to be really gangsta TT or even QQ (with a spade) which he now realises is no good. I am not sure whether these players will turn QQ into a bluff. As far as value, he is repping really only KJ for a flopped boat or the turned nut flush with something like ATs. Wouldnt he check raise all in on the turn tho? Dicey slow playing a flush on a paired board, what if the board double pairs or a fourth spade comes out. Similarly, I am discounting him having any Jx. Those hands should always be check raising flop with a flush draw out there. As far as hands you have to call down with, AA without a spade is kind of so so. You have some AK here which would play this way, mayb AK is a better call down due to slightly blocking KJ. You also have some AJ here for trips top kicker which would play the same way, as well as some flushes and boats yourself. All in all, mayb going for 3 streets with AA was a bit thin and you should fold once raised. On the other hand, like I said his line just doesn't add up, he is repping very narrow of KJ or the nut flush. Its a real coin flip. I am going to go with... call.
Omg just saw his hand wow did not expect that at all. Omg like, is JT even a raise there?! Its very thin. What is he hoping to get called by? Basically AA or AK. He still loses to full houses, flushes and better trips. You could easily be sitting there with AJ. Wow to x/r JT on the river.... I don't like it. I think his reaction was authentic, like he knew he was most likely beat but was pot committed. Very interesting hand Lex.
I always really liked that poker room❗️ with the bar, the high ceiling, and the track out front. Glad to see it's hopping‼️®️™️ ""great vlog by the way""
Pro tip Lex: Once you go down that much and fight your way back to get back in the profit and it’s past 1am it’s time to go home. The game is never that good.
Not the kind of video I wanted to see before going out of town on a poker trip, but maybe it's the one I need seeing as I've booked wins my last 3 sessions? I definitely need to find a spot to sigh/min raise river bluff judging by the comments lol.
Thanks you very much. I think A5 was in the range and even if not I think you should fold after the turn raise. Please continue to upload so nice videos to improve our game play.
Call raise on the flop with just a pair and no redraw is usually bad idea. As you see, even bluff has plenty of equity and if you are againt value - two pairs or set, you almost drawing dead
Just came back from Vegas, exactly same hand , I had pocket aces, same raise, 3 clubs on board At turn, river was heart, he went all in, after 2 minutes I showed him my aces and fold. I asked him to show me his cars, he said NO !! Later I saw him outside the poker room and asked him about that, he said good fold.. king & queen of clubs.. I lost so much $$ but saved lots of $$ by folding aces..😢😢
Before he shows A5 clubs, I guessed A5 spades. A/5 of spades is the likeliest bluff turn raise. A/5 clubs is a stupid bluff raise on the turn that got super lucky. A/5 spades is an excellent semi-bluff raise on the turn.
this video made me feel better about folding pocket 7s to someones all in, and possibly doubling up on the final table. just to lose a all in A/K the very next hand
Lex I know it hurts to lose with aces….As much as it does, thanks for showing the Ls you take because you are definitely one of the only ones that really shows it all big wins big losses…..You’re still a great player bud keep it up cause I know you will definitely win
Hi. I have never played at a casino. At 19:58 the guy with quads gave you 2 black $100 chips after showing the quads. Is this some sort of etiquette thing to do when he has a monster hand for the loser for going to show down? I plan to start playing in casinos soon so I ask because I wanna make sure I am a good player and follow all the etiquette type stuff. Thanks!
In the first hand, the fact he raised on the river is pretty telling, but the size of the raise screams that he has a boat, and the audible sigh before said raise says exactly that he has KK or JJ imo.
I think you're way too harsh on yourself. I would give your play today a C-. They ATo hand was the worst played on them all. Very spewy. The KQo hand is somewhat bad but not as bad, and the pocket 8s hand is a somewhat reasonable fold. In general mulitway pot you can play tighter, which the pocket 8's and KQo hand were. I'm surprised you didn't fold on the flop. Anyway love the honesty and love watching you go through the motions. Good luck and keep up the hard word!
Aces hand is a punt IMO. Pretty hard to go for three streets of value when there are trips and a potential flush on the board. Love your videos just think that hand in particular should have been played slower
Bothered me that you didn’t consider suited wheel as a possibility in that hand. Raise flop try and take it down and if not, hope you pick up equity. Textbook.
I don't blaim you for calling the 1k to see an A5s. Redemption by analyzing and learing. That AT however ouch. Courage got punished. But great vlog again
The hand where you lost to the A5 was cursed from the start due to positioning. Imagine what would have happened if after calling for 1k you get check raised. Just not the position to be in for that hand unfortunately.
I agree with the fold on the first hand. If he’s bluffing there I don’t think he’s ever going to be raising so small. I prob would have checked the river bc as playing what is calling that you beat.? Maybe only king jack and how often is he calling 500 with that. I think to thin
The sign raise is strength every fucking time. It’s the fish’s way of trying to get you to call because he’s trying to make it look like he doesn’t want to raise. It’s so cringey. You know all this. You have to fold and I’m sure that you do.
The audible sigh is always the nuts. Great fold in that spot.
Always lol
Reverse tells
Telling him about his tell might be +EV for vloggers. The rest of us should avoid it.
Except it wasn't in this case.

The sigh - raise is the most reliable tell in live poker. Snap fold aces on the JJK board.
One of the more realistic poker videos. Thanks.
#199....allow me to be the first to congratulate you on 200 vlogs! Congratulations Lex!!!!

@powertruth0776 I know most of them only show interesting hands. But they still show several sets that they hit every session.
I thought the same thing
These dudes are life rungoods
The sigh raise is always the nuts
1:52 You beat stuff like AQo with the Ace of spades but old guys minclicking is never a bluff. Good laydown
One more thing…when listening to the action pre, I was thinking a big 3 bet is prob best. Going multiway oop w KQois a recipe for disaster. Personally I would 3bet big pre and go from there. Gotta thin the field in this spot
I’ve been experiencing winner’s tilt a lot lately as well, minus the winning however...
I just had a big losing session….this vid is giving me PTSD
Haha
How much? $200 playing 1-2 nlh probably lol😅
u called multiple big bets with multiple opponents with TPGK … SPEW
I've been stuck my whole life. I live in ptsd
I love the brutal honesty.
Trivial fold, multiway I think it's extremely optimistic to get 3 streets of value with Aces on any broadway paired board.
Lex, you gave a GREAT description of “winner’s tilt”!!!
Been playing with those pros to much. That A 10 was a quick fold everytime
You put out a lot of great content, thank you. Yeah, first hand was an easy fold with A-A on the river with the sigh raise. Actually not sure about the $500 bet itself….

Good content Lex. I like your after action reviews of your play. Definitely can learn from your mistakes.
I always really liked that poker room❗️
with the bar, the high ceiling,
and the track out front. Glad to see
it's hopping‼️®️™️
""great vlog by the way""
15:53 what a fish! He snap called all-in. (with a pair of QQ).
Good video. I've experienced "winner's tilt" but never had a name for it. It's not just variance but variance with ego & the expectation of winning.
It’s called being up-stuck. Being up $1000 then losing back a few hundo. That’s getting up-stuck
Lex buddy Rip the turn with 10♣️ 7 ♣️ especially if you’re stuck. Of course the times you do it’s a case of “to many outs” lol. Still lot of equity!
“Frickin $1500 “😂
Pro tip Lex: Once you go down that much and fight your way back to get back in the profit and it’s past 1am it’s time to go home. The game is never that good.

Most honest vlog on YT. This was a poor session by any standard.
Great video dude! Thanks 4 posting it....
Thanks you very much. I think A5 was in the range and even if not I think you should fold after the turn raise. Please continue to upload so nice videos to improve our game play.
Great fold to the sigh-raise on the river with AA. But TERRIBLE call on the river facing that 4-to-a-straight on the board.
With the AA hand river isn't a bet-fold, it's a check-call.
Yeah Ace 5 was the first and only hand that came to mind when you made that bad call with King Queen and a queen eye board
That AA hand... the $500 bet was bad, but the $1125 raise was definitely worse. Easy, but good fold.
Call raise on the flop with just a pair and no redraw is usually bad idea. As you see, even bluff has plenty of equity and if you are againt value - two pairs or set, you almost drawing dead
Good river fold. That acting job was terrible on villain’s part, saved you $500.
Just came back from Vegas, exactly same hand , I had pocket aces, same raise, 3 clubs on board At turn, river was heart, he went all in, after 2 minutes I showed him my aces and fold.

Like your transparency. Not best plays, but honest.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts
Enjoy the hand reads. Nice to hear thought process
Before he shows A5 clubs, I guessed A5 spades. A/5 of spades is the likeliest bluff turn raise. A/5 clubs is a stupid bluff raise on the turn that got super lucky. A/5 spades is an excellent semi-bluff raise on the turn.
Insta like for jumping straight into the hands like that
this video made me feel better about folding pocket 7s to someones all in, and possibly doubling up on the final table. just to lose a all in A/K the very next hand
Lex, Love the Vlog..Can you recommend any good resources or training site for 1/2 strategy? Thank you
Amazing content as always
KQ hand to me felt like A5 spades or a bluff. Tough spot
That’s one dead tell live read 110% ..sigh and big bet or some obv bad tell then big bet is always nutted. Smart lay down.
Lex I know it hurts to lose with aces….As much as it does, thanks for showing the Ls you take because you are definitely one of the only ones that really shows it all big wins big losses…..You’re still a great player bud keep it up cause I know you will definitely win
Love you Lex O!!!!!!! But KQ hand was a very obvious punt :(
You wanna hit another qaud 😅😅😅 I can't wait to play you at hardrock
Thanks for keeping it real
Guess I was wrong, but shouldn't you have called, that live read.with the sigh would have saved me too
I think all in was the play on the turn of the 10/7 flush hand. And I hate the check but I guess your mostly only getting called by better.
Lex's river bet with aces (first hand) was way too thin IMO. A check is better for multiple reasons.
You had some really bad luck, but this is realistic poker. Playing with several others at a table, the odds are always against you.
Only watched the first few hands and this vlog reminds me of the 'how to play pocket jacks' pardoy.
You didnt fold enough,you be surprise how much you can save by folding,pocket 8s easy fold,Aces easy fold,comon now you know the game
.
.Your self- sanyasis portion was excellent

The guy raised 800 and Lex called with a a 1k chip. Opp gave him change before dealer got to it.
@@mattstieg5388 oh ok. Thanks for clearing that up!
Why would you punt like that without a spade ♠️ blocker???
Love your video lex
Man I hate when I flip quads or the nuts and get no action 😂
Nice video, I think vs the A5 you can fold turn or river, greetings from Austria ❤
In the first hand, the fact he raised on the river is pretty telling, but the size of the raise screams that he has a boat, and the audible sigh before said raise says exactly that he has KK or JJ imo.
Pot control on the turn with that kind of run out is usually a good idea
2:15 I'd fold. And never look back! No drawing hand, no top pair...it's a monster! Pair of AA is toooo small to call.
I think you're way too harsh on yourself. I would give your play today a C-. They ATo hand was the worst played on them all. Very spewy. The KQo hand is somewhat bad but not as bad, and the pocket 8s hand is a somewhat reasonable fold.
In general mulitway pot you can play tighter, which the pocket 8's and KQo hand were. I'm surprised you didn't fold on the flop.
Anyway love the honesty and love watching you go through the motions.
Good luck and keep up the hard word!
Aces hand is a punt IMO. Pretty hard to go for three streets of value when there are trips and a potential flush on the board. Love your videos just think that hand in particular should have been played slower
I aws shouting A5 in my screen before the turn
Which mistake were you talking about saying don't make this mistake ?
Id make the call with AA...thats a great board for a bluff and too much money invested already.....and thats why I never made it in poker...lol..
Do bluff work at smaller tables 1,3?
Not bad... a bit swing-ee but, not bad overall! 😊
Sigh min click on the river is a snap fold in a fishy splashy game for me
Aww man sorry you went through such a rough game.
Why not lead river with t7 cc hand?
Good message, I needed that. GL friend
very fun episode thank you
I am with you when he "sighs" but raises he clearly has a J
First hand i would fold. Guys giving me the feeling hes got a monster
Definate fold he has a jack or k j I think. Fold the "sigh" always
Bothered me that you didn’t consider suited wheel as a possibility in that hand. Raise flop try and take it down and if not, hope you pick up equity. Textbook.
Honestly you seem like a lot of fun to play with. Note the sarcasm
Let’s go lex! Way to battle back 16:42
I don't blaim you for calling the 1k to see an A5s. Redemption by analyzing and learing. That AT however ouch. Courage got punished. But great vlog again
The hand where you lost to the A5 was cursed from the start due to positioning. Imagine what would have happened if after calling for 1k you get check raised. Just not the position to be in for that hand unfortunately.
Nice come back but you were definitely on tilt trying to bluff the guy off his flush especially since he could've had the queen
I agree with the fold on the first hand. If he’s bluffing there I don’t think he’s ever going to be raising so small. I prob would have checked the river bc as playing what is calling that you beat.? Maybe only king jack and how often is he calling 500 with that. I think to thin
Do you play with and Luke in the private game on Tuesdays and Thursdays also Chauncey
Lex the king queen is a fold on the flop. You are beating yourself
I'd call, but I'd hate myself for it a little.
I'm folding aces on the rvr.....too many things beat me!
I would fold AA in The First Hand
As a pro playing with a great group of guys how much of a kickback is required to the game runner(s)?
The sign raise is strength every fucking time. It’s the fish’s way of trying to get you to call because he’s trying to make it look like he doesn’t want to raise. It’s so cringey. You know all this. You have to fold and I’m sure that you do.
2:00 Raise to $1080 (dirty stack)
I would of went yolo with 10,7cc hand and ripped it in on turn with combo draw
ON THE ACES HAND WHERE THE GUY RAISED $11OO ONE OF HIS STACKS WAS DIRTY WITH A RED CHIP MIXED IN WITH THE GREEN CHIPS BUT YOU FOLDED SO NO HARM DONE
Would have checked on the Turn when I saw the 4sp
Is anyone else sick of the WSOP thrill team ads. WSOP is really picking from the bottom of poker "celebrities".
Try and convince me that running it twice is not stupid and a waste of time.
I won't try, because it is stupid and a waste of time. Don't forget nerdy, geeky and geeky and nerdy
