technically the vast majority of his poker profit (on-stream) has come from that one hand, he's barely a winner apart from that. I love Mariano but it's true lol
@@paulhiggins140 i suspect he was massively winning back in the day when he was playing smaller, which was before he started splashing around so much. But yeah, the higher stakes stream stuff dwarfs all of the past.
@@pokertroll320I agree...he was definitely killing it in poker when he was just doing his stream and playing much much smaller stakes. But he likely would have never had 150,000$ to lose playing at those stakes. So he may be losing in poker now, but he's clearly winning in life. Definitely should go back to his roots tho for a bit, he's the best when he's on his A game.
I remember just a couple years ago.You guys are playing 1_3 and now your at the top of your Profession. Keep on keeping on. Nothing's easy, I work on a drilling rig. I fell and undisclosed height last winter and broke my back, the recovery is one of the hardest things that I've ever gone through. I expect to be. Fully recovered and in shape by probably november, That being said I always thought I was a good poker player until I saw you and brad owen, And all these other fantastic poker players that make blogs. And I realized. No matter how good you gethere's always somebody better out there. Always remember you're one of the Best in the world at what you do, I don't know if this helps you at all but I feel for you.
I appreciate the honesty especially at the end. I think we all have been there and you described it perfectly. When things go bad luck wise you tend to play bad and push. I saw it a few hands where you didn't play yourself, you were triggered. It feels bad to watch cause it reminded me of me. You are a great guy Mariano, and your showing the reality of poker. Just stick to the basics next game and focus on playing well. Not so much on big pots. You got this.
i can with 100% confidence say that i have no idea what its like to lose 300k in one week, or 158k in one session for that matter. Most i've lost in a session is maybe 2500$ and that made me want to jump off a bridge. Common misconception in this world is that just because you have a bigger bankroll it somehow would hurts less, money doesnt lose value just because you have more of it. 300k is 300k no matter who is holding it.
I appreciate the transparency with your poker career. This documentary style vlog was super cool, I hope you and Joey get together to film like this more often. Keep your head up, you're going to turn it around this year! Best of luck!
Mariano, thanks for being so real, even when shits not going great lol. we all appreciate the real/painful side of poker, esp from a player as good as yourself. opens ur eyes a bit. ur the best for being real, and it adds that much more emotion and power to ur vlogs. thanks for the content u make brother - ive learned a lot from u, and its helped cheer me up when i havent been feeling the best, poker or not. youll be alright - hopefully next session is a little bit friendlier
Hey Mariano, I've been a fan since the drop and loved all your videos and your beats. I always knew that was you putting the music together. It's been a rough go lately but you are an amazing card player and you'll turn things around ! Good luck on the future felt and keep your head up. We are rooting for you ! Cheers Xavier !
your a bonafide you tube legend bro... just keep doing your thing, the $$$ will come back to you...thanks for these brutally honest ones, has to be hard to do...
dude if all your videos were like this you would hit 1 million subscribers fast , loved it man , loved the real conversation you had with your girlfriend after that big loss , it was so refreshing and real
I like the raw emotion.. cuz that's how your suppose to feel after a bad session.. we all can relate with that.. with that being said.. you'll get them next time
That's for the honesty. It most be tough to put out a video when is going bad. That's the way it goes sometimes but I know you will turn this shit around. Good luck brother
Love the way you expressed your feelings and emotions at the end. It is indeed a vicious circle of running bad and playing bad. Been there and it really feels shitty. Hope you break out of this next time you sit on a poker table. Cheers!
How down to earth is this guy? Really appreciate his demeanor in this downswing. Just 100% class in the way he talks about his play, and poker in general. Rooting and expecting quick turnaround.
All aside from the huge loss great Vlog!! And yes, it was very hard to watch. I like to see you win. Your poker game shows that you’re human. I love how you always put things in perspective afterwards all Poker aside things are great. I think that’s why you’ll always be thriving in life. I don’t like the word successful great video. Cheers. Hate to see the loss but can’t wait to see the bounce back.
I don’t usually commend, I silently enjoy the free content and laugh or get frustrated occasionally seeing some bad plays. Now, as a pro who is making his living in Europe in little bit tougher games, I want to thank you. Thank you for going there in pain on front of the camera to show the world how it feels. We all been there and we all came back stronger. Studying poker after losses feels like a personal battle. But we all come back stronger. So will you!
Good video. I gamble vicariously through you. I'm lying i still play and i learn a lot of strategy from channels like yours. Keep it up you're a very good player and the video quality is top notch.
Mariano, mad respect for showing us the real truth and talking the the camera fresh right after the session even when thats probably the last thing you wanna do after another huge losing session. You are the boss.
You are absolutely one of the top Vlog dogs out there! Your personality, your content, you are professional, personable, interesting, intelligent, and humorous!
Appreciate the video mariano i too have been on a downswing 2 sessions in a row having flopped set over set it sucks when we run bad start questioning myself but love watching the vlogs I'm sure u will turn it round
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience when you’re down in poker.. it’s definitely a tough game and can affect your mental decisions.. but keep on going and keep thinking positive and remember you’re one of the best high stakes poker player!! Stay humble and you got this!! Love your vlogs and love hustler live stream!! Peace😊
Hard to see the leaks in such a high variance game as poker, but what I respect about Mariano is that he never reverts to blaming variance first. Tighten up the range a little and move down in stakes (if you must), and the poker gods will smile upon you once more.
If Ryan were cheating, he wouldn't need to use a phone...but if you're playing in the game, you either trust him or you don't...and at the end of the day, you're really just trusting Hustler and the CA gambling control commission (neither would risk it all for someone like Ryan or Nick)... There's a pretty decent chance he's just sitting in for a big Hollywood name that just flaked on him and he's waiting on texts for someone to take his seat
When you pause the video for your analysis can you make a marker somewhere illustrating that video is paused? I keep skipping the video back n forth thinking the video is glitched
Props for doing the talk right after the session. I recognise that pain on your face, I’ve seen it a million times in the mirror after too many sessions of running horrible and playing badly as a result. All the best getting back on track 👍
You know, bro I tell you one thing I just happen to be watching all your old videos. I’m on episode 40 and honestly I have no idea how you got to even been in possession to lose 300 K in a week but I would say that’s a pretty sweet life, look at the bright side you come really far
Damm bro..this is the most REAL thing I have scene in a long time😢..Dude..go deliver a few pizzas and go back to Morongo and fuck around low limit have fun..Smash the frickin drums..keep your head high I know how it feels on auch smaller level and remember you are loved kid❤
No where near a fraction of this kind of money. But 5 months out of 8 months so far, I have struggle with the down swings and the losing sessions. The mental aspect of it hit hard for me. Thank you for being so raw with your thoughts and emotions.
I'm watching this thinking that's me. When I'm everything goes wrong and the planets will align and I can do no right lololol. Thanks for the videos.......
When I saw the title of your short film.....I had a bad feeling. Stay cool, stay strong! I am a huge fan boy and I love and appreciate the drama! Pura Vida from Costa Rica!
You don't need a supportive comment man. I know you're self motivated and will get through this. Still if it matter your fans are always here 🙌🏽 Love from India. Lots of good hands to come brother
I can definitely relate to "seems like it's been a while since I was able to make a big value bet." Sometimes you go so long, you forget what you're supposed to do when the cards actually come your way...
Awesome poker blogs and you are my favorite poker blogger!! Maybe you will get more bad action or bad play for awhile since you have been running bad and opponents will stop thinking you’re a lockbox
You're a pro poker player at the highest level. I don't think you should buffer what youre saying with "woah is me" type talk. When Lebron has a game that doesn't go the way he wants he doesn't buffer his talk. He's a billionaire, he's an elite athlete....we get it. He doesn't have to preface everything with "woah is me". Practically no one can relate to you just like practically no one can relate to Lebron. That's OK. You don't have to be apologetic about it. You being a pro poker player at the highest level is very interesting and cool
I like you as a player and a person,you are always positive.my opinion is you play a lot of hands that a pro like you shouldn't play. All the best man from Macedonia
You play at HCL again this week. Hopefully the third time will get you back in the win column. You are just experiencing some bad variance. Keep your head high and the sun running will hopefully return soon. Peace!
Well you only ended up losing 20k on HCL this week. Kinda card dead. You didn't try to bluff as much during this session as well. Some new players at the table too. At least you minimized your losses.
Hey Brother, I know that was hard for you to close out like that on film, but I (we) as poker players grinding appreciate it. Makes me (us) feel like we are not alone when shit hits the fan...in a row. In the meantime make it a wonderful day, and as always, ROCK ON!!
Question: when you buy in for 100K, do you swipe your debit card ? Can they take cash for that much amount or even a take credit? And when u return the chips. How they pay you back? Cash ?
Love the content and self awareness you bring. Your right about Sashimi trip king hand, I think you might be off with 64 diamond tho. Chasing a weak flush on a paired flop is danger zone, I know you wanna get back at Ryan but maybe just fold the Michael Strahan pre-flop if you find it difficult to make disciplined lay downs on later streets. Much love from a 1-2 player :)
It was pretty wild how like the first 3 major hands your opponents just had full houses. IDK how you're supposed to lay it down all the time thinking 'well what if they have full houses?' Seems like a really unlucky night but nothing at all 'rampage style.' What can ya do? Love ya Mariano, keep it up!
I love the self-troll “my plan is to get Aces and two other players get Kings. The basis for my entire poker career.” 😂
I was waiting for the flopped straight flush vs the nut flush lol
technically the vast majority of his poker profit (on-stream) has come from that one hand, he's barely a winner apart from that. I love Mariano but it's true lol

Taking loses like a boss, things will turn around bro, just keep at it. 👊
Super honest summary at the end there, rawness of the emotion really did translate through the camera. Keep grinding.

“The vibrating seat” 😂
what ever happened with Robbie?
Obviously she’s a vibrating seat sales person. And other vibrating accessories
She gave the money back , you don’t give the money back if you’re not cheating

Keep your head up brother! Variance was always going to catch you after the SHR AA v KK/KK… you’re still the best poker Vlogger/TH-camr out there!! ❤
Brutal man! You will bounce back.
I appreciate the authenticity of your response. You are a very skilled player who will overcome the variance. Wishing you all the best.
Shout-out to Joey for the dramatic BRoll
Congrats on making it to the Top Stakes Mariano! Good luck in the Future brotha.

your a bonafide you tube legend bro... just keep doing your thing, the $$$ will come back to you...thanks for these brutally honest ones, has to be hard to do...
You're a legend mate!
This session has been an exact replica of my previous 10 sessions. I feel you
real talk at the end was great! refreshing and insightful. i guarantee you'll have a winning year in the end. upswing is coming
dude if all your videos were like this you would hit 1 million subscribers fast , loved it man , loved the real conversation you had with your girlfriend after that big loss , it was so refreshing and real
Which episode was that
"Ill take the vibrating seat for now" comment got me 😂😂

damn bro gg, youll get it back eff this
I appreciate saying "Hi" to the dealer. It's a small thing but it shows character
The down swing run is the worse feeling any person can have as a poker player. Makes you want to quit and work at McDonalds
You are absolutely one of the top Vlog dogs out there! Your personality, your content, you are professional, personable, interesting, intelligent, and humorous!
It’ll all turn around soon!!! Sun run incoming 😃 Thx for taking a pic w me after this session, I appreciate it!
“Hopefully we’ll look back at this and laugh one day” you will! I hope you remember that. Stay blessed cabron
Damn dude, this is hard to watch, just saw Ryan get that boat with 99 and I'm wondering how this video turns around to a win 😅
I love your play Mariano :) Keep up the good run ! thank you for the good video !
Amazing content as always 🎉🎉
Appreciate the video mariano i too have been on a downswing 2 sessions in a row having flopped set over set it sucks when we run bad start questioning myself but love watching the vlogs I'm sure u will turn it round
Keep it up man, nothing makes my day like seeing you post!
That close-uo montage at the end was dope, Mariano l!

I love that you are level headed when you hit bad luck or lose a little but of a tilty pot.
Also. Tom Dwan always looks like he is about to puke.
Remember; Losing big can deflate you, but I feel like expensive lessons last the longest.
I love these longer videos!!!
Why was Ryan allowed to have his phone at the table? Dont trust that dude at all.
If Ryan were cheating, he wouldn't need to use a phone...but if you're playing in the game, you either trust him or you don't...and at the end of the day, you're really just trusting Hustler and the CA gambling control commission (neither would risk it all for someone like Ryan or Nick)...
There's a pretty decent chance he's just sitting in for a big Hollywood name that just flaked on him and he's waiting on texts for someone to take his seat
Its post stream(no RFID)
How does Ryan have $200k to play with?
@@mjriemenbecause he’s a business man and not broke like you.
@@kennethko1534Ryan’s a career losing player on HCL streams so if he’s cheating he’s not accomplishing much.
Keep strong, man. Playing your usual game will soon make things turn around.
Hope to see you on the winning streak again soon!
Such a great intro to the video, nice
As long as you didn't lend Dwan any money that's a win
Keep at it bro! I don’t know what training sites advice, but you know better than most, TIGHTEN UP! Best way to get out a downswing
Production goes hard Mariano 👌🏽
Love the vlog mate sorry about the swimg
When you pause the video for your analysis can you make a marker somewhere illustrating that video is paused? I keep skipping the video back n forth thinking the video is glitched
props for facing things head on and just saw you win 200k last night (8/22) so your on the way back from these losses.
You took the loss like a champ. Variance is not fun and real; appreciate you for keeping things real & keep chugging through! Great vlog as always.
Props for doing the talk right after the session. I recognise that pain on your face, I’ve seen it a million times in the mirror after too many sessions of running horrible and playing badly as a result. All the best getting back on track 👍
I watched this stream. Brutal runout and flops. Appreciate your willingness to battle. Nature of the beast, as you know.
You know, bro I tell you one thing I just happen to be watching all your old videos. I’m on episode 40 and honestly I have no idea how you got to even been in possession to lose 300 K in a week but I would say that’s a pretty sweet life, look at the bright side you come really far
Rampage and mariano never fail to light up that cash.

I know you will win it all back and more. Thanks for sharing the down swing.
Its fine man, your play is very good overall - shit and bad sessions happen :) you will be back up very soon.
The reference to rounders and the mirage is incredible
So brutal to watch my stomach churned for you bro !! On a down swing myself so cheers to a bounce back otw 🍻

Cool music at the end
I like the subtle J4 reference... ;)
Half way through the video and he is reminding me of his buddy.
K8 is the easiest fold vs Sashimi.
“The first year of my life I’m not up playing poker” gotta be in the 1% of players who have never had a losing year lol
