      Yeah you're blocking two of them to only end up being against the other two aces all in preflop. I can't remember a hand on ANY stream where someone six bet bluffed preflop. The closest thing I could remember is that insane hand by Ivey in Monte Carlo when he either six bet or 7 bet jammed Q high and got Jackson fold. People just don't do it. It's like the check raise bluff on the river in a $1/$2 game, it just doesn't happen.

    Sad to see Mariano put on a fake nice guy act when in reality he's a disingenuous human. My friend and I experienced his true colors at Hustler.
    He sat in our smaller game after the show a few months back. He was constantly going all in, laughing when he sucked out and belittling us. My friend beat his AK with a straight and he rebought and kept saying we would all stay stuck poor playing there. Don't fall for the facade.

    • @AlexDuvall
      @AlexDuvall  Місяць тому +4

      In high stakes poker games, players 'sell action' so they don't have to risk so much money to play. Here, Mariano is saying he never sells and always has 100% of his own action. Compared to Rampage for example that often sells action.

    • @Psyc0tic

      Sometimes In high stakes people buy action. So I would give you 10k to go play a poker session, and I get a certain percentage of your winnings. Makes it so it you lose, you don’t lose as much as it’s not all your money. But if you win you don’t get 100% of your winnings

      It's a way of hedging your losses, I think more common in tournaments. Say you have a good history in tournaments, and want to play in the world series of poker ( WSOP ) but don't really want to pay the 10 K ticket, you can sell action ( maybe a friend pays you 5 K in exchange for 50% of the winnings ). The downside is that you could end up in "makeup"; indebted.

    Offcourse that was a "TOUGH CALL" in the Tan V. Mariano hand... I do not care who you are a novice or Phil Ivey, it is never easy calling a big river bet when NOT ONLY did the front door flush come BUT ALSO there is a 4-Liner to the straight comes in as well EVEN if you do have a SET which in this case is MERELY a bluff catcher!!! Yes he may have taken a lil longer to make the call but it totally was a TOUGH CALL...

    Every one enjoyed watching him when he played reasonably well, picked good spots for his bluffs and and made sure to have an edge by having at least some preflop hand selection.

    Not really surprised seeing those app game crushers lose big. Made their money from shady practices not playing cards - to much confidence given they blew up so fast and also coz they are used to winning all the time when they have suss edges on app.

    When you see a guy making plays like these, he's been on a heater for a long time. He could be a bad player who's been on a heater, or he could be a good player who's started to feel entitled to winning hands. And for the record, firing at a guy blind like that is intentionally insulting. But if the opponent is really weak enough to try that, and he just keeps on calling... he's got something.

    Mariano feels the need to put on a show to keep on playing there. HCL probably indirectly pressures them into this.
    And it shows. Because the hand makes no sense. Pretty sure he fell into that trap of "what are they going to think if i fold AK on stream" in his head and shoved. Cant think any sane poker player that would shove in that spot in any other game

  • @kevma107
    @kevma107 Місяць тому

    If you can't relate to the plight of Mariano (and Rampage) you just haven't played enough poker (or your consistently a losing player, or both) . Four things are at play here; boredom, the law of large numbers, patience and discipline (the lack thereof). At some point live poker goes from being fun and exciting to mostly boring and often annoying. As you start out and grind your way up it's fun and often exciting even when you win small amounts of money. As you continue to play and your bankroll grows you need to win larger amounts of money to maintain the 'high' like a drug addiction. You want more and you want faster. At some point you become jaded. This is inevitably followed by a loss of patience and discipline and then a painful spanking or two (or ten). It's the oldest story in the book of poker.

    • @campisimike
      @campisimike Місяць тому +1

      I imagine neither will go "broke", for different reasons whether that be alternate income from/because of poker, or being backed by someone. But as far as being able to sustain their play the longest? Probably Mariano because between the 2 of those guys, he looks like he sometimes does try to play good poker. Rampage has literally posted to social media that he needs the bigger action and can't play lower stakes to enjoy poker, which is a 100% sign of a gambling addict. Plus a lot of his poker logic is now "I can't ever win money if I never take a stand and gamble" (his exact words in his last vlog).
