Don't feel bad about the results from August, sir. I'm currently up on the year, but took a massive hit to my bankroll in the same month to the tune of 46k (most of which stemmed from one massive hand at a private 50/100 game down here in Central Florida at Orange City Racing and Card Club; and yes, it was my 2nd time getting stacked pre w/ KK versus the good ol' AA). It happens as they say, but we learn from our experiences and move on forward to the next session. As always, I always look forward to Sundays when you post and once again you did not disappoint regardless of the results. I think you've got a great thing going on here so please continue telling us about your poker journey warts and all.
I thought you played the A3d hand well. Questionable call on the villains part as he’s drawing virtually dead to all your value range and you’ve still got plenty of equity with the semi-bluff.
Love the channel and watch each vid. Will sub to the new IG as well. I know you're a farmer but I wouldn't blare it out loud that losing 2k is 'the worst month of your entire career' with the train wreck video. Yes, it sucks but a lot of people can lose that in one night or even one hand. Of course, it's your channel - and a channel I both enjoy and support - but just a bit of perspective for the poker world. Keep up the great work.
That KQo hand on the Q 9 6 flop is a bit of a blunder on the Turn/River by not betting. He's an action player, time to give him the action when you have it.
I don’t know man. Yeah you get them money in raising with the flush draw but I think it’s better to keep the pot small until you hit the nut flush. I’d just call the $40.
@@NorCal_PokerI disagree. Villain should not have called the turn with JJ, much of your range has him drawing dead. Some of your range is ahead, and a small pct of your range is on a flush draw
I love when an opponent makes the mistake of making their line make no sense. Had a similar hand the other night where I had pocket 10, flop J63 he had called my 20 pre, flop I bet 40 he tank calls. Turn is a 9H bringing 2 hearts on board. I bet out for 40 again to try to get more information, he raises to 140. Now I was thinking, maybe he has a J, maybe AJ KJ but if I’m betting into him I’d imagine he’d just call then raise river. Could have hit a set….. again, probably going to just call. So I settled on calling. The river is a 2C. I thought for a minute and figured his turn bet was likely he picked up a flush draw or had Q10 and picked up the straight draw. Which both bricked out. So any bet would likely get a fold. So I decided to leave is bluffs open and checked. He instantly shoved all in. I think for a second just to make it seem like it wasn’t an easy decision, then call. I was spot on and he had picked up the combo draw flush/straight draw on the turn and couldn’t win with a check. He asked how I called with 10’s there. I said “it was tough and I was close to folding but I had decided I was going to live or die on those 10’s pre flop.” Truth though was his story he was telling just didn’t make sense on the river. And on the turn his raise told a completely different story. His river shove only screamed “I missed everything. Now I have a portion of my stack in the middle and I can either give up and let it go or scare my opponent out of the pot and try to get it back.” The problem was the 2C just wasn’t a scary card. 😂
Trying to get someone off an overpair in 1/3 with no over card is usually futile, they get married to them. You have to show them you have it when you take this line a couple times before they fold. However on the JJ hand, your line may have looked more believable if you X/c flop and lead jam turn since it looks like you could’ve chased a straight and got there.
You played A3 suited the right way you flopped bottom pair to go along with the flush & back door straight draw. Your opponent got sticky with JJ and overvalued them after the turn imo nothing you could do in that situation. The way you were betting with an ugly board like that with pocket JJ I would've folded after the turn as there's a good chance I'm either drawing dead or I'm only drawing to one of the other two Jacks going to the river
You made the right moves with ace 3 suited with a pair and a flush draw and you did play it aggressively but the player still getting sticky with Jack's you had outs to win any diamond any 3s or aces but the result didn't play out. But at least on the other game you did better just keep it up
It’s hard to tell but it looks like a lot of older players in your games from the angle of your camera the hands of the player you can see look aged. The fact that older gents seem to play tight and the time of day you’re playing could be limiting your profitability. I mostly play afternoon games due to my schedule which does limit how many drinking donkeys are at the tables. I found playing a little tighter against the older dudes has helped me a bit. Bluffing against them never works.
Don’t mix it up for the camera - just play your game. Lots of bluffs here. Trying to get folks at 1/3 to fold their overpairs when a flush and straight draw is present on the flop is asking a whole lot from your opponents. Best of luck in the future, I know downswings really suck.
You are way too smart for the game of poker. Poker is not for geniuses, but luck boxes. I think if you joined SpaceX or Nasa you could use your game theory moves and hand range anal-izations to help get us to Mars and make yourself a profit.
Lil late but 9:24 is a prime example of why not to bluff at low stakes. I’ve lost so much money trying to bluff ppl that won’t fold. Value value value
Definitely!
I love how you show your losses and not embarrassed about it. Keep trucking.
That’s the goal, be as honest as possible! Thanks for the support
Great vlog! One of your funniest vlogs yet! Keep up the great work!
Thanks for that!
KING OF BOMB POTS! so hilarious! your sense of humor-has my attention! i love it!

Always appreciate the support! And I hate those setup hands!
Nice gifs, love the Gump with the strategy. You actually made me lol

Nice vid, love the fun clips.
How do you film without getting caught?
Capitol casino is all for it so I have free rein!
Just realised you and Doug play at the same place. Do you two come up against each other often? Love the content from both 👌🏻
We battle it out every now & then!
You must not pay much attention while watching their vids
@@SpendingAddiction I generally have these videos playing whilst eating dinner / lunches so no I’m not giving it my fullest attention unfortunately.
Maybe it's time to try blackjack

Stopping at 2pm is capping your wins. You should continue playing in games that are good.
It definitely is, but it’s the only time I allocate to playing poker, since I have other priorities!
Wow good call with the straight vs trip kings. I thought for sure he had a flush.
Part of me did, but I figured trips were a possibility

That villain played those JJ well against you. Sometimes happens.

True, in the long run it was the right play, especially against people who will make that turn call!
Is this the same Capitol Casino in Downtown Sacramento? Great place love to play there
Yup!
Nice Vlog.....🔥💸🔥💸 👟🏈

@@NorCal_Poker you should make a trip down here to Austin TX come play at TCH.
@@Moye-iw6ub would love to if I ever found the time!
Your only mistake in the A3 hand was calling the $23 raise preflop.
You have a point there, but I can’t resist with the camera aimed at a suited ace 😆
@@NorCal_Poker I can get behind a call if deep, but the flop spr is only like 7 with your stack.
Tony G taught me to never overplay KJ. It’s been pretty good advice .
I like it!
It's a good limp in hand😊
Love your vids
Appreciate that!
Why do you always head out at 2PM? 🧐
Long drive home & to have time to hang out with the kid before dinner/early bed!
i'd guess last guy had either flush draw and then turn it into a bluff when he missed on the river
I was thinking big spade draw!

Also the bomb pots at my local poker room can get crazy it's only $10 to get in but it's PLO with two boards
I’ve played those before & they get insane!
That rice paddy is calling your name.
🤔
With that nut flush draw even if you jammed on the flop it would have been the same outcome, so next time just check call/fold.
That’s a possibility!
During 95o hand if you bet that club on the Turn I bet he would've folded the river for sure
I can see that!
You made the right moves with ace 3 suited with a pair and a flush draw and you did play it aggressively but the player still getting sticky with Jack's you had outs to win any diamond any 3s or aces but the result didn't play out. But at least on the other game you did better just keep it up

Solid advice, & I agree! I tend towards playing tight but gotta mix it up for the camera!
@@NorCal_Poker yeah folding more than a Chinese dry cleaner isn’t good for the camera- I get it !! lol 😂

Feels like my August
Hopefully September is a lot better!
Twice you force play and twice you blew off money when should of just called in my opinion. Jay from Tennessee 😎
Gamble it up!
Game plays big … that guy in front of u has like $2800
It was wild!
Try hiring a coach. So many misplays.
Sounds like you’re the guy for the job!
@@NorCal_Poker I charge $100/hr
you would make so much more money playing at night if you can. People will go all in with any 2 cards. find a game with drunk people
Yes I would! But not able to pull that off at this stage in life. All good though!
the memes after every hand made me not wanna watch
just being honest
No worries, that’s my style. Not for everyone!

bein card dead is NOT FUN but "builds character"......but you are already a character!!!
😆
Pocket Jaxks? Zero way i make that call on that board..
How did you win with the QJ hand when the guy had a set of Kings?? Board was As, Ks, Jc, 4s, Kh
His hand was QT so he had an Ace high straight vs opponents trips K
