Don't worry about disappointing me. I just hope you can make enough money to avoid needing to get a real job.
Depressing
Thanks - I’ll do my best
people forget about youtube revenue lool he’s good
Ain't Happening
No expectations except that you be kind to yourself, my man. Thank you for sharing the poker and your heart. Better times are just around the corner.
Thanks so much man ❤️
Honestly you will never disappoint me man, I don’t think any of your fans are here for the wins we are here for the journey. I just saw you posted and literally dropped everything I was doing because brantzen posted. you have inspired me to start my own journey in poker which is a rollercoaster for sure but that’s poker and I would have never have done it if it wasn’t for you 😃
❤️
bro you definately didn't humiliate urself....no body plays mistake free sessions....keep going
i really appreciate your honesty and being able to follow your poker journey transparently. hope the cards and chips turn in your favor in a huge way brotha
LOVE YOU BUDDY! This video is heart breaking 💔 except for my bluff vs you, that will be one of my best plays forever lol. That king on the river saved me
Everyone has bad days at work where they make mistakes. Most of us never have to worry that our bad days are going to be broadcast live to the world. Mad respect for taking a shot, and mad respect for continuing onward in spite of setbacks like these. In general, you play really solid, and I watch because hearing the way you think through hands helps me improve my own game. Thanks for pushing on through.
Great vlogs and I appreciate the honesty and humility. I've played with you at much lower levels of course and you are solid and a really good player who does great vlogs. I've played with some of the others and I would never play with them on the live stream or for that much because it seems to be entertainment more than solid poker most of the time. That leaves too much to luck and variance. It takes serious guts just to show up, play and show the results even when luck was not on your side. Keep going!
Thank you so much for your kindness and grace ☺️
Brother keep your chin up! Been watching your content since the start, and love what you do. We all go through stretches where it sucks and it feels like we've forgotten how to play. Just keep your chin up and keep on pushing forward!
Thanks so much Spencer!
Wow. Brantzen that was amazing. The emotion and honestly that you put into that video. Wow. Thank you. Inspiring for us true grinders. Thank you.
Thanks so much for this comment 🙏 I’m glad you enjoyed the video - I’m doing my best to show the context and emotion better of when I play, so I’m happy you liked it!
Always with the fire intros 🔥
❤️
Keep grinding brother! You’ll never disappoint us.
Hey man just have a good time and play your game. Don't let people mess with ur head. First and foremost have fun with it!! I get it a lot is on the line but this is poker. Nothing is consistent and there are gonna be ups and downs. Have fun and try your best! That's all you should and can do. We believe in you but we also want to see you believe in yourself!! Goodluck!
Hey man. First video of yours that I’ve watched. Just gotta say, it’s poker, the best players make mistakes constantly, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. Just try and learn from your mistakes and don’t be so hard on yourself, it’s supposed to be fun 😅
Thanks man! It just can be tough when all your mistakes are in the limelight on such a big stage - thanks for the advice and kind words man!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and insights on what it's like for playing on a stream. It's easy for viewers to criticize every move, we are all guilty of it for sure. But as a player on the stream, you know it's going to happen so it's in the back of your mind. Takes guts to put yourself out there on the stream like that. Playing on stream seems like it can easily turn into a quicksand situation.
Thanks brother - always appreciate you ☺️
You are a good poker player you know this game getting outside advice can help I’d imagine every pro goes through a moment like this
Realest creator on YT finish January strong bro!
Thanks my man ❤️
hell of a video!
Trust the process homie all part of the journey
Thanks brother ❤️
You definitely didn’t disappoint me. I’m proud of you that you had the opportunity to get to play on hustlers. Most of us will never have that opportunity not even once for several reasons. And you are playing against players who are all pretty decent players (besides on tilt and casino king). They are both the definition of fun players. Anyway you should hold your head up high. Because poker is not easy and I think most players would let the spot get to them even if it’s just a little bit.
Thanks so much 😭
Your a great player. Gotta get out of your head sometimes... Your always your worst critic. Keep on the grind and spend time with your family
keep your head up bro ...... we are human s we all learn everyday .... the whole day in life ,,,,,, I m learning from all of your videos ......
Man I was really hoping that stuff at the end was tongue in cheek. Just play your game bro don’t worry about us.
Keep grinding bro and ignore the haters. Love the content and I’m rooting for you.
Let’s go brantzen you’re real for pouring your heart out in this one
❤️
Humility is a good trait to have. Play with your head, not above it. To thyself be true.
Don’t allow the naysayers to live rent free in your head bro! This is a journey. Always remember that even the greatest poker players still make mistakes. You’ll be just fine 💯💯
I believe your a great poker player. If your card dead or spot dead than there’s nothing you can really do but to pick the right hands to play. To me…you sound really hard on yourself. Maybe bc you have high expectations. It’s a huge disappointment when things don’t go the way we hoped and having expectations. I’m not one to judge on how someone might play one game of poker, but an average maybe. I try and not to judge anything but the cloths I have on for the day Idk know how it is to have to put up videos of poker playing. Thanks for showing me what it is like.
Yeah I definitely can be tough on myself - thanks for the encouragement
Hey bro. Don’t be sorry. You are just a human who does what you love. We are human that makes mistakes every minute. Who cares when you make it. Just move on. If we only concern about success and failure, poker and life will not be fun anymore. Success, failure, happiness are not real. Everything is just a temporary. Love you man and love your content. I’m really do hope you and your family are healthy ❤.
Change his diaper too? Wow these comments are so weak. Man up
Still love you Brantzen! And your poker Log 😂
love you homie you got this
Hey, keep your head up and stay on your journey, we all make mistakes and get nervous moving up in stakes ,plus you're doing it on a line stream .keep moving in a forward direction
Thanks :)
not sure what solver says with AJo there but seems okay for block bet there on river esp with Kx, Qx too. tho maybe your hand is strong enough to c/c river depend on size since u have nut no pair and no diamond in hand.
anyways. much bigger game than the 2/5 at bellagio ;-)
Keep up the good work.
Brother..... this message is from an absolute nobody on the internet that greatly enjoys your content and is glad to be with you on this journey..... get out of your head and don't even think twice about what I or anyone else thinks only those you go home to every day matter.... you have talent use it for you and you alone..... I'll be watching
People will always be trolls, remember that. Just keep up the videos and ignore the noise. We’re all human at the end of the day and all make mistakes at the poker table (and in life) regardless of how good or bad of players we are.
I don’t think any of your supporters feel disappointed in you when you book a loss/play bad, anyone hating is just a hater fr, the people who consistently watch you do it bc we want to see your journey. Just keep playing your game man and good luck
it is hard to play poker for living with family and without the deep pocket. you did well.
I can’t tell if the somber tone is satire or not. If it’s not, bro mega F all the haters, shake it off and do you. You got this bro!
Thanks man! Yeah, unfortunately not satire - but I always appreciate you and all your encouragement!
Except for the hand with 66, I don’t think you made any blunders. With JJ on the 6 turn you could bet small to fold out his perceived 15 percent or so equity, but you can still check back to bluff catch on many rivers if the guy is active/bluff happy on the river.
Don't worry about it. Hard days will come and go
The apology was hilarious dude. Just got a new subscriber.
It’s all good mate. Poker is a game of variance. Poker is a zero sum game. No one thinks any less of you. In fact, people should think more of you for having the bravery to put yourself on a stream with tjat exposure. Fair play 🙌🏻
It's just poker no one really cares just play the game. I don't need to tell you that the losers are the ones that throw out bad comments, don't let them get in your head. Live Love and Laugh that's who you are!
This is a whole Netflix movie 🎥
🙏🙏
You forgot the finger violins 😂😂😂
brantzen your going to win a big tournament on day. play 85 percent cash and that 15 percent tournamnents... and thats how you cash in big .. but only pay tournamentts betweeen 500 and 2000.. you got this .. im afan
F that bro your doing great job I follow Mariano, rampage and wolfgame poker as well, And let me tell you something bro, no matter if you're doing good or bad, there will be haters out there. You are doing what a lot of us wish we could do, that's why they're hating on you bro, keep doing what you're doing. Keep your head up. They are ups and Downs to this game. Keep the video's comment. I would love to be in one of your positions. For a shot to be on live stream best of luck
Thanks brother
Keep it up bro would really like to play with you one day if your ever in az playing cash games let me know 😉
all love my guy
The best way to play is the way that makes the most money, that’s it! The viewers can’t say anything about you making a nifty fold to a bluff if you’re the stack leader at the table. Be greedy and sharp.
Overthinking syndrome. Happens to the best of us. Shake it off! Keep up the good work! 🙏
You’re a beast and the most relatable player Brantzen. It’s the variance game too, gonna come up soon brother
My advice. You live that moment and play your best at the table. Forget other people judgement, judge yourself.
Dude, don't apologies to viewers, at the end of the day we're just wankers watching free content, you're the one putting in the work. And don't kick yourself too hard cause you learned a lot, learning is the only way to progress and move forward, some lessons are fucking tough but what can you do.
Cheer up Brantzen and live Your Dream; haters are just jealous that they don’t have the balls or skill to do the same😉💪 In fact, You are probably living the life they dream of😉💰💵♠️♣️♥️♦️
Appreciate you ❤️😄
Don't listen to those idiots in the chat there. I haven't watched HCL in a very long time because of how toxic it is as well as its kind of lost its pizzazz. I usually just tune in for the huge noteworthy name games now
Don’t be your own worst enemy! You’re obviously a smart guy. Maybe live streams aren’t the right thing for you at this point in time. Just have faith in yourself and carry on, my man. And remember what they say about opinions, so just ignore all the negative naysayers.
You need to get out of your head. It’s not easy to put yourself out there. Keep grinding and don’t let the haters derail you of your dream!
Good game, we all do better again.
True fans enjoyed the content.
❤️
I still think your the best poker vlogger skill wise, sometimes the moment is too big
Appreciate it - just need to work on not letting the outside voices in
Keep pursuing your dreams. Money isn't the answer to everything. Enjoy life.
Dam I thought I was hard on myself. I don't think I would do well with losing my money then have a comment section shit on me.
First thing you need to do on live stream is to not worry about anything or anyone committing on how you play. They are not there you are. Second you need to play your game against the players at the table as if it was your regular 5/5. Why because they are going to play that way because it is live and want the publicity. You are playing for your income right now. STOP worrying about everyone else and be yourself and play like the cameras are not there. GL bro
I dont think you played that bad....thats poker. good days, bad days... Been playing for 20 yrs now and Ive had a lot of days like this.....just forget about it and play your game.
Mistakes are made. If you're not assessing mistakes after every session, you're making the biggest mistake of all. Unfortunately, in your position, especially on stream, everyone gets to see your mistakes. But even Polk, Owen, Neeme, and others who may or may not be on the Mt Rushmore of poker vloggers continue to make mistakes, and everyone sees it on stream. It happens. Some of these guys have a far bigger roll than you do, and that's hard to overcome sometimes. Sometimes you run bad. That's okay.
Stay within your bankroll, and exploit games you can beat easily until your bankroll has you in a more comfortable position to play in bigger games with deeper rolls like Mariano.
You're good, my guy. Don't beat yourself up. Being in a negative head space is the absolute worst thing that can happen to a poker player. Clear your mind, understand you know what you're doing. Control what you can control, and success will come. Count on it.
You should never be raising the turn vs anyone (the AKc hand vs casino fish), they’re going to have 6x way more then you, the only merit to shoving would be if you thought they were heavily weighted to Ax and wanted a chance to freeroll them, otherwise though you just shut down bluffs and only get called by Ax and 6x
You played it correctly like you said, just brutally unlucky river
Ur gonna be great....
“But, I just call”.
You might be the only person to rival my bad luck at times.
B man, what was that sad shit at the end? Don't apologize for shit you can't control.
Besides QQ it was all good
You know what they say about haters? They have No Class!!
Fuck them bro keep grinding!!!
Thanks man :)
Like this .
Bro I know I can see the cards but when you had the Jack's and the other guy raised with a k hitting the river you just uave to call it off. I say this as most would try stealing the pot and the price was about right to call too. Anyway I wish you luck.
I try to never to base my life on others opinions! Fuck em
Idrc bro its great to see u win but life has ups and downs
I thought u did pretty good bro 👍👍👍
Did they gift you guys G-shocks?
Kiero got them to give us all g shocks hahah
Officially the last video I'll ever see from this channel. Congrats on hitting over 100k subs!
Yikes, most backhanded congratulations I’ve ever seen. And bye, you won’t be missed and no one cares
At least you didn’t pull a rampage
play more with rampage to look better :p it's tough to play vs skilled aggros like mariano - probably this is where ego comes in, table selection vs good content
Its a leveling game buddy. Its like chess. Exploit exploit exploit. Never share your true thought process.
*CHA'ALT*
:')
Biggest weaknes is they lie....don't post bad stuff
Dont think about the audience just play as if it wasn't live and dont stop i dont really know how poker works i just like watching u it would be ashame if u stopped
n1
The only disappointment is that your voice isn’t the same as your shorts
Thanks for thinking of us viewers Brantzen but everyone has bad sessions or bad runs. Just do your thing and keep pushing through the hardships. If you play to perfection then you would be a soulless robot GTO solver. I for one like players to be human and make some mistakes. Sometimes those mistakes can turn into a large payout which then adds more drams into videos! Keep your chin up and never give up on yourself!
Thanks so much! Appreciate it ❤️
Your play was fine. You are being way too harsh on yourself. Making a fold to a bluff is not always a mistake. Sometimes that's the right play.
Sounds to me like you are being a bit too results oriented.....you can't base your decisions based on what happened...you have to base your decisions on what is most likely to happen, not what DID happen...you made the right play folding the JJ on the river....calling that bet will lose you money more often than lose you money. 👍
Dude you have to stop being negative. Our thoughts are magnetic, if we change our thought process it will attract positive outcomes.
Who gives a fuck what these random people think on the internet.
True - I’m just trying to show the whole picture of everything I go through on this journey
Bro it’s Algood… don’t be so hard on yourself. Could be worse! I mean, look at Airball…
Ha! I thought you were the same guy as Greg goes all in. Jk!
As someone who trolls at the time you honestly shouldn’t give two fks about what Randoms in the comments say, it’s your money at the end of the day. You didn’t play that bad, 66 hand was by far the worst thing you did, JJ wasn’t great but still was an unfortunate river for you
Bit dramatic lol
Game may be too big for you. If you had a 1k stack in front of you I suspect you would have played differently.
Why are you so depressed about that session. You disappointed me by reacting like this. "IF YOU CAN MEET WITH TRIUMPH AND DISASTER AND TREAT THOSE TWO IMPOSTORS JUST THE SAME"
Interesting quote - but yeah just always disappointed in myself when I don’t feel like I’m playing at the best of my ability
And disappointed for letting outside views influence how I play
@BrantzenPoker The way you play is perfect. I learned a lot from you. The only battle you can face in poker is between you and you. Viewers have nothing to do with this. Search somewhere else. Poker is the art of making the right decision. Poker is not all about winning or losing chips. The only thing that matters is making the right decision. It's between you and yourself. You live a dream, you live my dream playing poker for living dont make it a nightmare. Keep making that great content. You make a lot of people happy, myself including.
Keep it up, never fold...
Unfortunately the title has nothing to do with the video.
Disagreed - I think that a lot of vloggers weakness is their own egos, especially on a big livestream. Seeing how much it affects everyone’s play is unreal. Go check out Frankie C’s latest video and he went through it as well
I would go get your old good paying job back. Anyone remember PokerPriest a few years back? A lot of similarities in how this is gonna turn out….
Yeah what ever happened to him?? Do you know
