Can I just say I appreciate the effort you put into these vlogs? I subscribe to a few poker channels and the quality of your vlogs is by far the best IMO.
What a fun vlog! You get us so pumped. Your hand break downs are amazing. I up my game with every breakdown with your commentary. On to the next one. Go get it! Been a follower for years back in the early twitch days.
2nd comment: omg that T2 hand. I love the logic you talked through about him likely betting his own hand on the river if he made it because it doesn't look like you have much of a hand to bet with as played. That's the kind of thinking that separates good players from great players; good stuff man.
Guy at bellagio few weeks ago told me I looked like Kevin Martin- I couldn’t confirm or deny cause I thought you were primarily in the online realm. Now I can see it lol. Glad I hopped on the vlog train! These are so dope, gets me fired up
Great Vlogging! I appreciate the hand reviews, very helpful. I was there, made day 3. Hope to see you for a meet and greet this year at the monster. Keep the content coming, best of luck on your journey!😎
bro i rarely comment on any video, or anything for that matter. i watch a lot of poker vlogs, im about halfway through. I LOVE YOUR VIDS!!!!!! no bs, good vibes, good plays, well put together. idk if you even read these, if you do however; KEEP IT UP! I could def see you being one of the next biggest poker ambassadors. keep up the grind!!!
Very nice call there with the Doyle, pretty sure I would've checked it back but tough to find a call for me. I don't really play tournaments but well done sir 👏
I will say this there is a lot of poker content out there, and I will say this its very enjoyable to see your enjoyment for the game and energy for a game that can be such a grind. Plus your just very genuine and I can feel it through the computer screen. Keep up the grind and good work, and thanks for making poker enjoyable to me after it has felt like such a drag after playing many of hours after 5 years
In the AJ hand I think you always just call the river. Even if you're good it's not by much, and you can't expect him to call with worse more often than he will just have you beat; and he isn't folding better.
Great run great video. KJ was a punt tho. We have to find a balance between being aggresive and preserving our stack. That's why poker is a beautiful game.
In these massive field tournaments with loads of different players you are only gonna play with during a short timespan: for sure go a more milky sizing of like 120-140K on the QQ hand as an exploit. Save the balanced stuff for smaller field tournaments against more skilled experienced opponents imo. My few cents.
Hey @KevinRobMartin, I'm a big fan. What I think about the AJh hand is just to flat the river bet because your hand is not that strong to call a 3bet on the river. AJh is just a bluff catcher on that spot. But overall it was a good fold! GLHF on your future games! Jah Bless!
I moved to Vegas from Ohio 22 years ago. Rollin in my Cavalier...Red, it's a red Cavalier..!? (anyone who knows what movie that is from is a legend) Anyway I primarily bet on sports but I played poker my entire life and this was just before the boom, so I was ok. Anyhow, I am constantly impressed by your analysis when put to the test and your reads, breakdowns, but more then anything, the most important thing in poker, risk/reward analysis. Its not always about the right read, but is it worth raking the risk to be right . Had to Monday morning Quarterback a little, lol, (come on Kev you are supposed to play perfect every hand for ever! 😂) I did cringe every step of the way on the AJ of Hearts hand, but I really jaw on the floored on the river! A rivered top pair not even top kicker with a spread board, sooo many two pairs, so many sets, str8's and got bailed out with the horrible 3k into 18k bet! There is no "raise for value" on that river...it's just literally not a thing...on what...A8, A2, the QJ I guess...but an easy nice pot, or easy get away from any tough decision! Anyway I have loved you since BB days, then my other fav thing Poker, which simple math dictates that = You are my favorite human... or at least top 100. Keep it up we are all behind you!!!
HI, thanks for the great content just love all the vlogs at WSOP , Great play so far ,I must say I think the big difference why your in a positive profit value is you are willing to go down to very low BB ,Whereby plenty of other players are not willing to go less then 10BB sometimes That 3 bet to 3/4bet wow, I bet that guy had KJ or at least 2 pair, don't feel bad I think it was a good laydown, and even if you lost a big pot there, see it as bet for info
Funny that T2 is called the Doyle Brunson, I'd call it either 'terminator' or 'in the drivers seat.' In all fairness, that hand sucks other than nobody expecting it (Hellmuth would freak out if it beat him.) I wonder if any of my hand names are popular: K2 'a mountain of a hand' or K9 'a real dog of a hand.'
You played really well and you have good energy. That 99 hand was a good fold even though you had the guy dominated. If you had him covered, you could have gone with it, but not for your tournament life.
The AJ of hearts hand should've of just been a call, you're only getting called by better. Plus you find out what he had for a cheap price if you're beat.
When you think about it would villain really 4bet shove better hands? (When you had 99) my read was AQ,AK… I don’t think I would of been good enough to lay that down with his sus line
K-10 hand-Don’t think a bluff would have worked on river… he switched to Check call mode… on AJ hand-think raise is very viable on the turn. I think the river is a fold as played… tough hand.
is the hand where the guy bets 3k on the river not so clearly him trying to induce a raise??? he is in position so he is not block betting or anything like that, idk im just so confused by your reaction on that one! I get that maybe hes going small for thin value sometimes, but surely him raising shouldnt be SHOCKING
how many people are at one table if theres UTG+7? so that’s 8 people already and I’m assuming youre calling hijack and lojack utg+x for some reason? so then cut off, button, small blind, big blind? 12 handed? I havent played a live tournament before so maybe there’s something im missing but its kinda funny to me theres like 3 different ways to call the positions I don’t really play live tournaments.
That small river bet, raise, raise hand is just OH BROTHER

These are great vlogs, Kevin. Looking forward to the rest no matter how long I wait.

Unreal brother! Getting there bit by bit 👊🏻
Just came across the channel love the positivity you bring to how you play.

Alot of things is amazing to Kevin, and I love it! First time I see the Vlog and I love the energy :) Keep it up!
This content is sick. Keep it up Kevin. Great Stuff!
That doyle brunson calldown was epic. Great plays great vlogs
Your vibe is incredible! Please keep these coming!
kev these are great blogs and I'm very happy you're jumping right in. burn those shades. everything else is stellar.

Loving the vlogs kev!
Amazing watch...Great job
''*snif sniff*, i smell some marihuana... which i enjoy, but not while im playing poker '' what a line love it
Leets go, great run, and nice handhistory breakdown! Appreciate all the effort.
You're becoming one of my favorite players. It's fun to watch and try to learn from you. All the best. Congrats on your success.
Hell yea!!! Hoping you make a deep run in the main!!!
I love the WSOP VLOG series!!!!
In the AJ hand I think you always just call the river. Even if you're good it's not by much, and you can't expect him to call with worse more often than he will just have you beat; and he isn't folding better.
Great hand w the T2o, nice to get a deep review of it too. You made Doyle proud w that one!
Let’s go man! UL about the 10k main but still a whole WSOP left you’re gonna smash it.
Bro . Learn from your mistakes ❤ and keep up the grind . Give em hell gl bud
I love the T2 at the end of ms gg 👍💪
Loving the content k-mart.
Had a dream last night I played with kev at the WSOP, was wild and vivid hopefully it becomes reality soon! GGs Kmart!
Maybe throwing the KdJc in check back range is good since its gross to bet/call when we block lots of semibluffs. Tough spot though and good run!
doyle would be so proud of that T2 hero call. RIP
Kevin, this content is amazing!
Let’s get an “amazing” counter going
Love the vlogs Kmart
Seems like reasonable logic!
You doing great man, keep it up
That T2 call was crazy good.
Great run great video. KJ was a punt tho. We have to find a balance between being aggresive and preserving our stack. That's why poker is a beautiful game.
That's a pretty standard call for 15 bb if there isn't a serious ICM implication like a bunch of tiny stacks near a big pay jump.
Yo what's up Kevin, your videos inspire me to break through my previous poker level. Now I feel more confident to play. Keep inspiring us!
That AJ spot is brutal.
I’m going to implement super low blocker bet to induce raise then re-raise. So funny I love it with a made hand
In these massive field tournaments with loads of different players you are only gonna play with during a short timespan: for sure go a more milky sizing of like 120-140K on the QQ hand as an exploit. Save the balanced stuff for smaller field tournaments against more skilled experienced opponents imo. My few cents.
Great video 😎
Kevin you should check back the flop with KdJ for pot control and many boards are very easy for you to play profitably
GG Nice run, Cant wait for your Colossus Tournament Vlog saw you ran pretty deep in that one as well
24:50 I was expecting the massage to move in the hotel room 😂

Killer video
Nice run👍
Let’s gooooo run it up
Shame mate, great hand breakdowns hope the rest of your WSOP goes well 🤞
Good vlog but can we get one that has you actually filming the table or does WSOP not allow this?
LFGOOOOO! 🚀

nice vog. the only thing I think I would suggest is add the estimated stack sizes
that K 10 of hearts hand was similar to one of mine recently where I took myself to value town.
Go get em Kev
gogogo kmart!
24:53 damn I was pretty sure there I saw Drea behind bad xd
K mon Kevin ! 🙋🏻♂️

11:09 Scott Summers says hello haha
Great run! Is that GGPoker Hand-replayer available for the public to use?
GG Kmart
GG 😢 Well played
Did you not hit the flush with the AQ against the 66?
Do you have like a different GTO for bubble play? or just continue with your normal position play?
It was a great fold tbh! But if you called the 3K I probably woulda done that myself
You played really well and you have good energy. That 99 hand was a good fold even though you had the guy dominated. If you had him covered, you could have gone with it, but not for your tournament life.
those glasses are def interesting lmao
Like how the dealers slammes the cards down when all in.
He put stickers on the fire alarm I do the same thinking there’s hidden cams haha
What would you think about the 3-bet on the queens hand on the flop?
Like 120K
You should have 4-bet raised all in with the AJ as you're blocking the nuts with the J
The AJ of hearts hand should've of just been a call, you're only getting called by better. Plus you find out what he had for a cheap price if you're beat.
I think the small bet was to entice you to raise he had the straight on the flop
Something about the hand breakdowns - I think you should edit the players position correctly.. (BB left to the BU etc)
K mart u da man but how do u not smoke when u play especially live makes it so much more fun and focused
Got in the top 200 last year in the colossus dude who was to my left for a while got 5th I thought this was gonna be the one maybe next year.
When you think about it would villain really 4bet shove better hands? (When you had 99) my read was AQ,AK… I don’t think I would of been good enough to lay that down with his sus line
I would love if you could possibly add stack sizes. Either way i appreciate you, your content and explanation is perfect for people wanting to learn.
K-10 hand-Don’t think a bluff would have worked on river… he switched to Check call mode… on AJ hand-think raise is very viable on the turn. I think the river is a fold as played… tough hand.
“I smell some marijuana… which I enjoy ;) but not while I play poker” hahahahahah love you K-Mart
Lets go Anatoly
is the hand where the guy bets 3k on the river not so clearly him trying to induce a raise??? he is in position so he is not block betting or anything like that, idk im just so confused by your reaction on that one! I get that maybe hes going small for thin value sometimes, but surely him raising shouldnt be SHOCKING
Gotta fold that KJ I think. Crazy all in by him tho.
how many people are at one table if theres UTG+7? so that’s 8 people already and I’m assuming youre calling hijack and lojack utg+x for some reason? so then cut off, button, small blind, big blind? 12 handed?
I havent played a live tournament before so maybe there’s something im missing but its kinda funny to me theres like 3 different ways to call the positions
I don’t really play live tournaments.
Gn
gg 1500
9:36 on river just call ..... but on turn he bet4k u must to go 15k some like that
Wsop event blind challenge next?
Bruh I remember you busted KJ < AJ last year in the main.
that guy definitely had kj
