I think these are some of my worst hands played at the Big Game, so hopefully you can learn something from my mistakes 😉 Let me know what you think of the video down here 👇
Fantastic video bro, much obliged. Will you live stream on TH-cam?
Are you gonna reflect on some of your Big Game good hands as well? Thanks for the new videos as well! I’m liking all the new stuff, keep up the good work 😉
Wanna see some hands against phil laak😬
Love it, as your reflections are invaluable. Am loving the content; thanks mate!
Love this type of content. More of the same!!!
The big game is easily my favorite TV poker show. The loose cannon component made it so fun and made for great table dynamics. They need to do a re-run
Would love to play it again. I think the loose cannon-angle is amazing
nope,the pot limit preflop killed the game
@@ifeelhalfnaked484how? It literally saves the game
@@ifeelhalfnaked484 LMAO
@@ifeelhalfnaked484 I would actually like to see NLHE 1/2 pot limit pre-flop or even fixed limit pre late in tournaments
Freaking love these throw backs to the Big Game! I've probably seen every episode of The Big Game like 3-4 times already, not counting going back to the really good ones and watching them 5-6 times. This was in my opinion the height of poker entertainment back in my era.
Really glad PokerStars got these episodes sorted by seasons for easy watching, years and years later.
it was a good show, i liked the ones where Hellmuth and Tony G go at each other, lol
This series is some of the best if not just THE best content on your channel. Your crazy way of playing back then compared with the analysis showing how much your game has improved over the years makes it both really entertaining and educational. Hope you keep making these
Thanks Jan. It's also a bit unfair to evaluate the game back then with knowledge from now. The knowledge from now simply wasn't available then. A lot of the boards I'm betting that I shouldn't have was absolutely normal back then.
@@LexVeldhuisTV That makes a lot of sense, computers have come a long way in games like these for better or worse. "Crazy style" wasn't meant in a negative way at all, just saying that you not being afraid to just put it all on the line in every hand makes this series a lot better than if you were only playing aces.
The variety of your episodes really are amazing aspects of poker, ranging from the basics, to complicated spots, to bluffing off the other players. Keep up the TH-cam grind! I look forward to your next video :D
Only gonna put out more and more!
Cant watch enough of videos like this!! I saw every episode of the big game years ago but its so nice to see what you think about your hands, so please more videos like this😍🚀🌱
I appreciate your honesty and openness
Important trait for poker pros!
What a different time for poker. It's like a time capsule
100%
It's really awesome to see present Lex reflect on young and wild Lex. I recall a video of the WSOP where you bluff everyone, care to do one about that?
And curious; what's the biggest pot you've ever won? Biggest one I've seen is the amazing hero call against Doyle.
WIll talk about WSOP and the hand vs Doyle in this segment as well.
It is really difficult to critically analyze hands from back in the days when everyone played like a maniac, with yourself being one of the bigger maniacs as well. But you did so well in not trying to justify bad plays by your old self. Shows your mental strength.
ur the goat lex I really appreciate these videos. I placed 10th in the 7.50 last night, I always seem to loose all in with aces on the river but I know I made the right call. my game has been improving lately, all thanks to you and BBZ
Close call William, keep working man, and really glad to hear it.
The Big Game was an awesome show - learned so much from it and still regularly watch on TH-cam. Wish they’d bring it back!
So great to get your insights Lex - always wondered why you potted 66 in that spot.
Yeah just figured Vanessa is full of shit and there is $18k for free out there
I love this. Explaining your thoughts and looking back on one of my favourite tv series
This is great content I really looking forward to the next I’ve followed you for almost 8 years now…Lex is just great
love these videos, they are very helpful. Keep doing this series
Hand N°3 is nuts!!
Love the new range of content. New favorite series on the tube. Keep killin it King Lex.
That's so amazing to hear, thanks Shane!
Amazing content lex nice switcht, the community loves u ❤🔥
Love the cash game content Lex, very well done 👏
Hey buddy thanks :)
God i love this "Learn with Lex" series. Nice to watch and helpful!
Great video Lex, & amazing that you’re playing 100% your own action!
Wellllllllllllllllll... :D
MORE MORE MORE! I NEED MOOORE!! This was very interesting! I remember the Big Game and when you replied to Doyle with “Driving around the country playing home games with shotguns in the back of the car doesn’t really increase your life expectancy either.” :D :D :D
Did you notice Daniel had a thing for the hostess while you were in the studio Lex? Knowing they are married now, its so obvious, he's continuously trying to be funny and glancing over to her afterwards 😄. Very funny
HAha yeah I knew they were dating at the time
You'd have to be blind not to notice. And deaf. And have the TV turned off.
Loving these small series lex so interesting to hear your opinions especially on big game because I loved watching this series. Just curious you said it was real money did you make profit or make a loss?
I lost like $120k I think in big game. Which is only 1 buyin rofl... crazy
@@LexVeldhuisTV man that sucks, still think you were one of the best people on the show. its the reason why i found your twitch and youtube! have a great christmas and thankyou for the amazing content
Thanks for the great content! Lex. Always a treat getting a look inside your thought process behind decisions.
I think that at the time you (and other players) saw poker in a different way. For instance, I don't feel like blockers were such a consideration back then
True 100%
I love multi way hands
Great series
Amazing to see how you've grown as a poker player and person in all those years! Cool video, the "I see dead money" was the cherry on top
What a epic move from sb 66 call and 4 bet..... Only one possible way - tilt mode that moment
Ehhh no
Lol holy shit, I watched this a few months ago (before I knew who you were and started watching your stream). It's crazy how different you look (not in a bad way!)
This is top tier content, well done lex!
Love your videos bro. Keep up the great work!
Thanks dude!
Thank you so much for your content buddy🎉
Really interesting to see how styles have changed so much in the last 15 years. Great video.
I'd like to hear more about what your logic at the time was as well
I think the fact that Daniel just passed you $100k in chips - despite the fact that it was your money and was a pre-arranged thing - is just kinda surreal. A lot of the high-stakes stuff is very interesting because the visuals of giant stacks of cash or chips worth more than a lot of people's houses can make it feel like a whole different world. The fact that Daniel casually passed you $100k in a quick across-the-table handoff only adds to the perception that poker pros have a different concept of money compared to ordinary mortals.
Loved watching this back in the day. Like you mentioned in the k4/aa hand once you led it had to be bet bet bet.
Dnegs handing you 100k for me is just amaizing. He is Romanian by birth and he is a role model.for us romanians in the game. We respect him and my sir you are one of a kind. I ve seen that you.give back to your community something which is a great thing to do. You by far the best there is and hope you ll keep up.
I love this new YT Content. I can learn so much. Thx for that
Loved this analysis does remind me how back in the day even top pros were very aggro crazy types made for great TV feel like the game play has gotten so ridiculously slow and I'd watch this type of action even if the plays were abit out there over the robots on today's shows keep up the great content Lex
Yeah it's definitely more fun to watch. PEople today play show, but I have to say people play like gangsters nowadays
@@LexVeldhuisTV Cannot wait to see the I've hand 😍 and your thoughts
Very nice Lex!
Are you still in touch with Daniel or Vanessa btw?
Have a good one!
Never talked much to Vanessa. Still talk to Daniel though
@@LexVeldhuisTV For some reason i thought Team Pros stuck together or smth.
Thx for the answer!
@@kubas2424 I mean there were 100 pros back then, can't be friends with everyone, you know :)
Thank you for this gold.
Really enjoying these throwbacks
Loving the switch up Alex, rooting for you bro
The J3 hand, I felt your pain Lex, it was like looking in a mirror for me. 😭
Hey Lex. Thanks for this new content it's brilliant. Maybe with the jack 3 2-barrel, once we get to the river go full animal and rip all in. Vanessa's range seems capped enough, most her nutted stuff is probably raising earlier. She winds up with a few better jacks we can bluff off and she also has a lot of weaker showdown value and missed draws that could blow us off our equity (can easy see 67s or a8 turning into bluff) and we can't call. We also are blocking Jx 2p combos which are some of the best calling hands she ends up with here.
Pretty sick spot to end up in 😂
Hand is way too high up in my range to turn into a bluff. I still have 67, 78, 89, T9, A9, missed flushdraws, pocket 77 etc etc etc
When you watch it accidentally with subtitles: What's up guys my name is Lex felters 🤦♂🙈
Love these Lex thanks 🙏🏻
We will never forget about the second hand now 😆, Lex! Loving the content.
Love the content Lex. You glorious aggressive bastard.
Best poker videos around. Ive learned a lot
Did Lex play The Sherminator on American Pie????
Best way to learn, from your mistakes, keep on coming with those vids
Thanks!! Great content!
Vanessa was a sick player!
its nice to revisit this play and re analyze it. but did you know everything you do now back then? just curious. because i have come a long way since this was played.
Loving the memberberries Lex 😊
Lex i really admire your style its super aggro, i tried to emulate this style for a bit but i just can't make a profit lmao 🤣
Leading out on the first hand is nuts! Why on Earth did you do that?
New content is great Lex!
'Raising with 8's is a really bad move that tricked me out of my money.'
On the second hand I don't get why Vanessa doesn't semi-bluff raise the turn?
Bro, the The Sixth Sense reference...with pockets 6s?? Did you just do that??
isn't it possible that Vanessa had some kind of live read preflop when she potraised with 88? You don't need blockers if you have a strong feeling that you take down the pot a lot.
great video btw
VERY GOOD VIDEO LEX. Keep it up
First hand you both played well.
Very humble. I like your style good sir
Love this content Lex.
I see dead money paranoia lol
Could you afford to play these games back then realistically?
No this was very irresponsible
Nice Show, love your explaining there, helps a lot. Do you think Theres a different between live and online or would you act Same way?
I think generally you play the same way and then you deviate a bit based on playing history etc
lex i am proud of you as a dutchman you make poker great
She threw those chips in like she was throwing them away
How come lex Played such huge stakes back then and now plays relatively smallish tournaments?
2010, everyone clicking buttons LOL
U play with ur money or not?
yes
@@LexVeldhuisTV i argentina u can buy a city with that money, u know?
I dont know.. i remember watching this and figured you two were friends so borrowing was no big deal...
expensive but awesome experience to have played that big game I can imagine....
Vanessa is such a good player
seriously? or sarcasm?
@@ricardoolivo5244 Seriously
@@neokCS it was an honest question, most people don't like her. I wouldn't dare to call her a bad player or anything, but this video clearly doesn't help her cause. Sure she won all the hands, but saving the first hand, in which she did what most people would do (just call and see what develops with AA, which seems correct in this case imo) she played like a complete amateur. Hand 2 nothing at all she did made sense, but she got lucky Lex dug himself into a weird spot. Hand 3 was total nonsense from both, but she just had 88 vs 66, change Lex 66 for 99 story is totally different. Winning and playing good doesn't always come together, in fact sometimes you win thanks to playing bad and viceversa. In other videos, I've seen her play great poker, and also make some mistakes, like a normal person would.
Oh man, wish they could bring 'The Big Game' back.
Although I guess with all the streamers getting into Poker, it's a bit similar.....but they don't care about the money and it's not really 'life changing'.
Streamers dont care about the money?
I remember that. This Episode was in German Free TV... 66 was great Spot to re raise. I think the 5bet from Vanessa with 88 is terrible.
Yeah Vanessa's raise isn't great but 99 probably already starts raising so it's not awful
3:20 Horrible flat on the river by Vanessa. With the 3 pairing your AA just counterfeited K4 and KQ the two most probable hands your opponent would have by betting the flop and turn strong. 34 and 44 are not likely because of the 3 pairing on the river and it being also a heads up pot the entire hand. In this situation being last to act I would be raising about pot or 3x on the river every time.
lol your face back then was an open book
J3 and 95 if you would bet again on the river instead of checking. she would probably fold with 95. She could still re raise you. but i don't think. she would bluff that match with just 95 high card. But K is scary card for 3J. Maybe if you would check turn on J and start bet first when K comes on the river. you would won this one
Lex, do some videos on "where are they now" (Such as Vanessa, Seiver etc) and maybe a couple of videos whereby you win :P
I never thought Vanessa as a good player, always felt she was fishing too much
Seiver on the other hand always seemed like a level above everyone else
Negreanu continues to be one of my favourite poker players
my favorite part about these episodes of the big game is that we don't realize that Dnegs is flirting with his future wife.
Lol give me a time machine and put me in this game.
W video
mega interessant weer man
Great video. First hand wasnt so bad, just bad luck, and Vanessa played good. The other 2 you both played like lunatics, but it worked fine for her, not for you hehe.
Yeah first hand is fine!
I love 2010 poker before anyone figured out how to play correctly!
I dont really understand, why you think that vanessa's pot-bet preflop is bad. Ok, she doesnt have any blockers but isnt that a good squeeze hand anyway? I mean she would only profit 5 ways if she hits a set, and if not, her hand is likely no good. So why not try to get all players to fold or at least play heads up and then rep a stromg hand. Could you explain? Nice format btw
There's nearly 5k in dead money. Nothing wrong with occassionally squeezing here with this hand. She is last to act and doesn't have to worry about action behind her like Lex. Alot of Ax should be folding to her raise. Players were playing wide, I don't think not having blocking properties out weighs putting weak Ax in a bad spot. AJ, A10, etc. are likely to be dominated. If players were playing tighter ranges then blocking would be more relevant. Besides squeezing with A rag wasn't considered a good strategy back then and probably a miniscule part of her squeezing range. The only negative I see is Daniel is next to act and likes to peel which will likely bring in other players if he calls. If Lex doesn't think she has any middle pair squeezes, then his back raise is even worse. He might think 88 would fold to his back raise. Surely a big Ax or any big pair is never folding. For the same reason he just called the first raise, he should just call the second raise getting nearly 4to1 and set mine.
Please tell me you don't fold this Jack to the maverick...
I think it's the correct play! Still do. Actually think the checkfold on the river is one of my best decisions that hand
Is it me or is the audio crackling? It's pretty annoying for me. Maybe re upload?
It's during some parts yeah, will fix it for next time. Apologies =[
@@LexVeldhuisTV no worries. First time ever in your vids. Love what your doing man.
Veldhuis showing himself getting destroyed shows an amazing mindset as a teacher, a player and generally as a human being.
The injunction to always show oneself as a « winner » costs a lot to a lot of people. We learn from mistakes and as a teacher or a coach it’s a much, much better material to show to an improving player. It’s also slightly painful which causes it to sink much easier than the « look how awesome i play » content.
Thank you Lex, hats off, and best of luck in your poker endeavours!!!!
Keep it up, Subs +1 👍
She seemed like she wanted to give you some consolation prize - did you show her what D in words HollanD and NetherlanDs stands for?
I like that shirt Lex
for me, 90% of these players who play at those cash games tv shows wouldnt make a dime at online poker today, im sure they wouldnt even beat nl100.
Silly to compare because the best player in the world back then online wouldn't be top 1000 now.
When you're losing to Vanessa Rousso you know you're playing badly.
Thanks!
