Hey Lex. I’ve been lying on the couch for two days with the flu. Saw your video come up and it was finding a piece of candy! Thanks for your hard work!
Great video Lex, keep pumping out the great content. Us Aussies don’t get the chance to visit the US of A much so watching these vids each week takes me back to Vegas and give me my poker hit each week. Thanks Legend 😎
Love to see the great comeback, especially in a higher stakes game! You need to post where you are planning on playing in the future so those of us who follow you can meet up (besides your meet up games). Great to finally meet you in person (Best Bet Jacksonville). I always promote everyone I follow and as always I truly appreciate the videos brother! Pet the doggie for me and good luck at the tables.. 💕🙏
Lex, seriously. There are a lot of people leaving great comments that you should be liking. Ashley reads every comment and likes most of them bc she realizes that the subscribers matter. Psychologically, people like it when you like their comment. Hence, more people will continue to come back. Very nice session!!!
Lex, On the Q8 hand, it's a great defend. Also the feeling you would face a larger bet on the river is because it isn't a $2,000 bet, in reality it is a $2,900-3,000 bet. The loser pays the table, if he gets called and loses, it cost him more. If you call and lose it cost you more. A big part of why the Q8 is such a good defend is because there is an extra $900-1000 as part of the pot. Not sure if a walk counts as a win in the standup but he really is incentived to get involved, as are you. Given the extra money in play, a thousand dollar open wouldn't be out of line, makes it a lot harder to call with Q8 off but you know if you fold it cost you your blind plus paying off the table. To call cost you about the same but at least you can win. You're just deep enough to do it and shallow enough to be dangerous. Heck I said shove on the flop, then looked at SPR. The stack is suddenly closer to 300 bb instead of 5000. Folding means likely losing $900 without a chance to win with skill or luck. I'm suggesting that when heads up in the stand up game, we have to think each hand is like putting a $900 dollar straddle on. Our bb is increased significantly when we fold. Only for the specific hand but it's really not much different than posting the straddle and folding. The leveling wars are pretty interesting with unique dynamics introduced through variation. Bomb pots, seven deuce, stand up. They are actually different games with similarities to Texas holdem. Like heads up, short handed, full ring, tournament. I think it's more interesting than the mixed games. And truly the stand up game is similar to a single table tournament with a very distorted value for winning. Big swings in these games, easy to get real deep into the pocket. Enjoy watching you play and you explain your thoughts well, even disagree with yourself. Videos are top notch sir.
I really like where you are going and loved the wtf am I doing. Lol we all do it and you said best. Some times I feel to groggy at a lose stake game and forget that the range is much wider. I’ve punted 900-1200 before even playing 2/5 5/10 and that sucks!!
Good stuff Lex. It's pretty clear that your A-game beats the mid stakes handily. Just trim the time you're in your C-game and you'll crush 'em every time.
Congrats on the win! I could be wrong, but aren't you leaving a lot of value out on the table? I feel like you could be betting bigger in spots, especially at those stakes.
Great video, as usual. When there are several new ones on the 2 dozen subscriptions I follow, I always watch yours first. BTW, I know you are not a wine drinker, but how was it? That particular vintage from that Chateau lists for $140 -- the high rollers you played with probably get that comped.
Just a small thing on the last hand when he announced "Two Pair" at showdown you should've assumed you won already (given the board) because in poker lingo typically if he had any two-pair with an ACE he would most likely have said "ACES-UP" so if you noticed you may not have needed to ask "WHICH ONE?" since you 'technically' had the highest "non-Aced two-pair" hand with the nut "Queens-Up" ... but anyways, very nice run @ 10-20!!! Congrats!!!
With the standup game dynamics you definitely can check raise with 2 pair on that board, you are going to have a lot of bluffs also. You should still be trying to win the maximum in the hand which could have been a lot more than the $800 penalty for losing the game.
If the cash out is over $10k is there tax paperwork involved? Curious to know. (I bought in for $16k once at Orange City earlier last year in order to play a 25/50 private game and had to fill out IRS documentation.)
Do you think on the 88 hand, you're double blocking the nut straight there, that you can raise the turn? You might do that w overpair anyway. Donks (esp after 3-bet) are almost always just ok top pair hands and not much more. Zero donks there w a 6x IMO. Are you worried about him calling a raise?
I don't think a 5 bet on the KK hand would be an overplay. The 4 bet shove was from the BB with a small stack. Also, he's 4-betting the button 3-bet. His range is wide open. You're basically playing a heads up hand against the button. I think a flat call can be a good play if you're trying to induce the button to squeeze. Looks like the way the hand played, the button wasn't that strong. He probably had a hand like AQ and was just never going to put another penny in after calling the pre-flop shove with you in the middle. I think the flop lead was probably perfect. All of his over pairs are coming along, and anything else he was just going to check back.
Nice win, Lex! 🤗 But, dude! You GOTTA play better at lower stake games when you’re waiting for a seat at higher stakes. ‘Cause that is a serious leak in you game.
I think Q8o is a reasonable call in your situation: SU game, vs. Last Stander, vs. Dead money in the Straddler. Worried about running into the top of standard UTG range with only sets to that you block most of, JThh, KJhh. Not a happy call, but a call.

Man… what a exciting game.. my heart was beating watching this 😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
Great session bro!
Good luck Lex! Keep up the good playing,
Running well helps…! Lol. Great video Lex…
Congratulations on win you are getting better and better keep it up
That two pair vs two pair hand had me giggling. So glad it went your way!
Lex we need you on HCL asap
The 55 play was ridiculous 😂
You just got another subscriber I really enjoy your video 😊
Nice come up! Just make sure you keep it!
LFG Lex! Congratulations! Pura Vida from Costa Rica!
"finally a big pocket pair" two hands after getting pocket Q's lol
Way to go Lex! 💪
Good stuff Lex. It's pretty clear that your A-game beats the mid stakes handily. Just trim the time you're in your C-game and you'll crush 'em every time.
Nice run Lex!
Love the hustle man. You are grinding out those subscribers. Like 100 per week, and still chugging along.
How could you ever be "way ahead" with 5D5s on a 8s6h8c flop???? How Sway?
Great run! A check raise on the turn with Q8 would be awesome 😊
Нет у него такого уровня и к тому же и трус
@@sakenkazakhstan7611....WOW⁉️
Nice! Congrats!
Great session Lex. Almost 50K subs let's go!
Lmao me after every tournament exit “ WTF were you doing”
Nice job Lex!
Great job Lex you deserve ot 👏
No missed flush draw on that 6k pot. The only draw was diamonds and it went diamond diamond I think. Congrats on the big win
Congrats on the win! I could be wrong, but aren't you leaving a lot of value out on the table? I feel like you could be betting bigger in spots, especially at those stakes.
Awesome session
Good work!
Hey Lex, nice video. Are you showing your stats for 2022 or did I miss anything? :D
Great video, as usual. When there are several new ones on the 2 dozen subscriptions I follow, I always watch yours first. BTW, I know you are not a wine drinker, but how was it? That particular vintage from that Chateau lists for $140 -- the high rollers you played with probably get that comped.
I don’t ever drink wine but I actually really enjoyed this one!
Everyone here has punted. Great video. I like your style and play. Good Luck! Nice session. It takes me almost a month to win $16K!
Said the same thing last weekend after attempting to hero call with ace high lol
Just a small thing on the last hand when he announced "Two Pair" at showdown you should've assumed you won already (given the board) because in poker lingo typically if he had any two-pair with an ACE he would most likely have said "ACES-UP" so if you noticed you may not have needed to ask "WHICH ONE?" since you 'technically' had the highest "non-Aced two-pair" hand with the nut "Queens-Up" ... but anyways, very nice run @ 10-20!!! Congrats!!!
fun vid!
I'm curious, what software do you use to edit your vlogs?
5K pot one player has 8-3 off and the other has Q-8 off. Lol fuck the standup game!
Thank you sir
Awesome!!!
Lex is the man
With the standup game dynamics you definitely can check raise with 2 pair on that board, you are going to have a lot of bluffs also. You should still be trying to win the maximum in the hand which could have been a lot more than the $800 penalty for losing the game.
Q8 definetely strong enough to raise w that dynamic.
Nice profit!
What’s the rake on the big game
If the cash out is over $10k is there tax paperwork involved? Curious to know. (I bought in for $16k once at Orange City earlier last year in order to play a 25/50 private game and had to fill out IRS documentation.)
Great question I’m curious also
2500 they take your ID so just break it down in increments
That is a nice wine sir. Hundred dollar bottle or so
Good job bro
Lex do you play online poker at all?
Very nice 🎉
30 minutes late to clock in for work but well worth it!
Do you think on the 88 hand, you're double blocking the nut straight there, that you can raise the turn? You might do that w overpair anyway. Donks (esp after 3-bet) are almost always just ok top pair hands and not much more. Zero donks there w a 6x IMO. Are you worried about him calling a raise?
It’s better to be lucky, than good!
I don't think a 5 bet on the KK hand would be an overplay. The 4 bet shove was from the BB with a small stack. Also, he's 4-betting the button 3-bet. His range is wide open.

Q8 hand could of been way bigger he jams river do you call ?
How can you be way ahead on 886 flop with pocket 5's?
Nice bro
Nice win, Lex! 🤗
But, dude! You GOTTA play better at lower stake games when you’re waiting for a seat at higher stakes. ‘Cause that is a serious leak in you game.
The lead with KK is fine. Gotta get value from other pocket pairs !
well done sir
Major congrats on the session 🎉👍🏾🔥
Lex you showed your pocket 8s with the two clubs and two spades on your full house hand there was no bink lol for the other player
Lex,when you heard or saw his 2 pair was 8 3 vs. your Q 8,you had to start laughing,right?🤣🤣Because I'll bet he thought that he won?😂😂😂
I was in vegas on Saturday. Hungover like a sob
Walking to Bellagio? On a downswing?
$100 bottle of wine by the way
I’ll be at your meet up game to get some of that easy fish money
I think Q8o is a reasonable call in your situation: SU game, vs. Last Stander, vs. Dead money in the Straddler. Worried about running into the top of standard UTG range with only sets to that you block most of, JThh, KJhh. Not a happy call, but a call.
To 50k. Let’s Go 😊
6:30, you say they clearly look like novice players. Curious what someone can wear/do to look like one? Can you make a vid ab this?
Great "sun-run" fam... cards were on your side 😀...
It'd Be nice NOT to know the outcome th ough!!! 🙄
Lex what do you make of MGM banning filming in there casinos?
gay
