I’m newer to playing small stakes in hard rock Tampa and it’s nice u don’t do what many others do and only show the wins. I find my self in this spot and it helps to know this happens when u play every day…great vlog man!
I clicked the like button for your transparency and great representation…. You are on the right grinding track and keep hitting those tables because in the long run your game will be an upswing. Gd job sir!!!
It's great to see vids when you win, but the analysis is worth it too in every one and it's great that you apply rationality and thoughtfulness even on the downswings. Keep it up sir!!
Personally, I really enjoyed this vlog. I'm so happy for you when you post a winning session, but it helps to see the realities of what occurs when playing for a living. It also makes me root for you that much more when you do have a good session. It's admirable to see you take the loss in stride. Kept it up! Better luck next time.
I really appreciate when vloggers post their losing sessions. As someone who is just starting out losing sessions make me question myself a lot but it’s nice to remember that it happens to everyone. Great video! 🤘
Love your vlogs! And thank you for showing the real side of being a pro poker player. I definitely prefer the real genuine vlogs over some of these fake vloggers who claim to win the "biggest win of my life" on every other poker vlog.
Keep up the good work brother you are doing a great job you have been down this rabbit hole before and you will turn it around you are a very skilled player
Thanks for your continuous content, Lex. It's great to see your poker stakes progression. Win, lose, or bad beat...you provide real content. Good luck on the felt!!
Some days we just have to suck it up and learn how to manage negative feelings/emotions. By sharing some of your days like this, you show us the reality of the poker player life.. ups and downs. Thanks and better luck next session.
Ruger is soooooo happy to see you. Remember, he is part of your world, but you are ALL of his. Not getting your huge winners on video and losing is THE WHOLE GAME! You win, you lose. That's Poker.
Really appreciate this video!! I'm going through a similar down swing where I'm consistently losing small to medium pots and I don't play every day, so it's wearing on me. Seeing this video reminded some of the best out there go through the same.
I think viewers me included enjoy watching sessions they can relate to. Although there weren’t a ton of monsters It’s still fun to sweat the action and hear your thought processing. Better luck next session 🤘
I feel ya pimpin…..Experiencing that myself and yet listening to your positive words and it once again reminds me that the swings will come and go as long as Im playing my best poker the journey continues!!!! LETS GO!!!!
Basically, you maintained a prudent Range... The Flops were not cooperating. Thank you for posting. Glad you didn't try running monster-bluffs out of frustration.
Thanks for sharing your losses too. It gives us poker players hope when we are on a down swing watching crushers like you go on down swings. Good luck grinding out of it. You got this!
Thanks so for sharing. I like seeing these boring sessions too as that's part of the game. You were playing well, otherwise getting no flops, you could have lost much more.
Man i just started playing 2 5 again here and there and it feels like i cant hit a hand and im playing way too aggressive.. im glad you showed this vlog because this is the way poker is !!!
love your sessions and your humble voice-over. I enjoy watching your vids and your strats on every hand you got involved into. Good Luck and make more next game
I had to scratch and claw my way back today at the poker table. I eventuallly ran my KK into AA preflop for everything against todays Table Nemesis. I hit the K on the flop and Homeboy blew his top. 1350 pot put me a little past even and my Win Streak continues. After get cornholed early on ALL my runouts, it was nice to get lucky myself.
It was pretty aggressive especially when Lex has a range advantage but I actually don’t mind it when you have backdoor clubs. Pretty advanced play imo blocking sets and 2 pair and having back door equity
Regardless of how well you play, you still need to make the best hand pretty often. Most players who had your cards would have lost more. It will be your day to smash the game when your luck improves!
I'm working through my first prolonged downswing on my graph. It's been like 8 months. I need to make adjustments and I am. There's always something to learn or get better at.
Always nice to see you, shame about the downswing. A suggestion, i think I'd prefer not to know which hand is the last one of the night. It seems to defuse the tension, as I can pretty well gauge if you'll wind up winning or losing on the night at that point. It's more exciting, I think, to keep us guessing.
I am happy you posted this video, it shows the true representation of poker. I play poker and you have to deal with variance, and you have to deal with good/bad sessions, exciting and boring sessions. Great video! Hope you play in the WPT this December would love to meet you!
Before I see the flop on the KhKd hand at 7:00 +/-, I TOTALLY agree with a flat out of position. Considering his $2,500 stack and your willingness to get stacks in no matter what, let him jam, even with an A-high flop🤮. You've seen this done with QQ & JJ too, Lex! GREAT play pre - now let's watch the outcome...🤔
Loved ur video today. Sometimes this is how poker goes. There were couple of spots u couldve gone for the bluff and get owned. You dodged them very well, and i would say thats a win! Ur session couldve easily been -10k/20k. It is best not to battle someone either rec or reg who is running hot, especially when u r not running good. Great job on ur session and this video. Just subed today!
Vedio was great as always..I always look forward to watching new ones when you post them and you excellent player..I do have question you mentioned in past that if table is not good for whatever reason whether it's bunch of pros or if you getting coolered it's time to switch table or something...my question if u at table and someone is sun running do I feel like it's time to move from tbem cause it seems like they can't loose even if they not better player??
Sucks having a rough session like that, sorry dude always rooting for a big W for you! I feel like the KJo hand was a little spray though, I think you can just fold flop given his 2/3 sizing since you don’t really have flush equity, and you’re not that happy with your pair outs. Also holding the J it’s just too think for value on the turn blocking the major draw.
Love the videos and the honest side of poker. Have you ever come up and played at Orange City poker and racing room? Some really good action there. Also was wondering if you ever do any coaching? I live in Central Florida and would love to come down to seminole and play and maybe get some tips and guidance. Love the channel and maybe I'll see you at seminole when I get down there.
Define Euro pro. In what way do they play differently than any other pro. What are their tendencies? Always love when you hit a card that helps you but improves your opponent. 😢
I love your commentary on your videos, explaining your choices. I feel like I am learning while being entertained
I always love the honest sessions! It sucks, but it’s a good and fair video for the audience you have. Kudos for sharing. Things will turn around Lex!

Making and posting this videos was a good choice! I follow you because I like the authenticity of the experience. Good luck!
It's great to see vids when you win, but the analysis is worth it too in every one and it's great that you apply rationality and thoughtfulness even on the downswings. Keep it up sir!!
I appreciate the honest sessions, compared to so many other bloggers who show winning 80% of the time
Your honesty is great, the journey surely has twists and turns.
Keep grinding Lex.

You're a real genuine guy who shows the ups AND the downs and that's what we love about you!
Great video Lex...and I don't think I'm the only one when I say that we love the transparency and honesty that we find here on your vlog channel!
Enjoyed the vlog. You are obviously an honest guy.....hope you run great in your next session !!

Respect the transparency. The upswings never last, but neither do the downswings. Keep fighting
Appreciate these types of videos, reason being is this is what I go thru a lot. It's nice to see I'm not alone
I feel ya pimpin…..Experiencing that myself and yet listening to your positive words and it once again reminds me that the swings will come and go as long as Im playing my best poker the journey continues!!!! LETS GO!!!!
I respect your words at the end of the video. All facts good luck we are rooting for you..
Basically, you maintained a prudent Range... The Flops were not cooperating. Thank you for posting. Glad you didn't try running monster-bluffs out of frustration.
Your insight into consecutive loses of 6k and 3k is a cautionary tale on having a ready bankroll for the swings
Thanks for sharing your losses too. It gives us poker players hope when we are on a down swing watching crushers like you go on down swings. Good luck grinding out of it. You got this!
Way to keep it real for the people who don't understand the poker life
The common mans poker vlogger...appreciate the honesty and the content...great stuff.
We learn a lot more from losing than winning. Thanks for posting.
Good on you for being transparent. As long as your ups are bigger than your downswings.
the last 3 minutes is the real side of poker
Thanks so for sharing. I like seeing these boring sessions too as that's part of the game. You were playing well, otherwise getting no flops, you could have lost much more.
Good video, it's the reality of poker and people need to see that.
Lex you are my favourite poker vlogger , keep grinding man ! A big upswing is waiting for you ❤ .
Please post all your sessions, your analysis is solid for any size pot.
Seeing the regular ebbs and flows of a session shows how poker is. There isn't always high drama at a table.
Man i just started playing 2 5 again here and there and it feels like i cant hit a hand and im playing way too aggressive.. im glad you showed this vlog because this is the way poker is !!!
Real life poker at its best.
We’ve all been there.
Let’s go Lex!!
Thanks also for keeping it real, Lex! A big part of why I focus on your channel - i can RELATE. Keep grinding, Brother!✌🍀
love your sessions and your humble voice-over. I enjoy watching your vids and your strats on every hand you got involved into. Good Luck and make more next game

Lex you should consider making youtube shorts for better reach
That 4 5 check raise was insane by him. I don’t blame you for that spot.
It was pretty aggressive especially when Lex has a range advantage but I actually don’t mind it when you have backdoor clubs. Pretty advanced play imo blocking sets and 2 pair and having back door equity
Thanks Lex for keeping and showing it real👍
Exactly how I felt Sunday. Never won a hand, Set over set etc....
Good video as usual… you really get a sense of the life of playing poker for a living including both the ups and downs
I feel your pain. I had a month of my first downswing in many years this month. Finally had a winning session the other day. Hang in there.
Keeping it real, Lex and not deluding yourself makes you a winner in the long run mate.
Liked the line from your opponent in the first hand
Great vlog thank you for sharing with us. Sending you all the run good for your next sessions coming up.
Its good to know im not the only one that gets in there with Q6s when its a potentially juicy spot
Lex - yiou need to share these types of sessions. It helps to understand what can happen to us all. Please continue.
Regardless of how well you play, you still need to make the best hand pretty often. Most players who had your cards would have lost more. It will be your day to smash the game when your luck improves!
I'm working through my first prolonged downswing on my graph. It's been like 8 months. I need to make adjustments and I am. There's always something to learn or get better at.
Great content epic game of chance upswing and downswings.
You are the best Lex. Thanks for being consistent every time. May the Poker God always be by your side.
Cursing takes the game away
Always nice to see you, shame about the downswing. A suggestion, i think I'd prefer not to know which hand is the last one of the night. It seems to defuse the tension, as I can pretty well gauge if you'll wind up winning or losing on the night at that point. It's more exciting, I think, to keep us guessing.
You are the most .honest player.sorry for your loss better luck next time 😊
I am happy you posted this video, it shows the true representation of poker. I play poker and you have to deal with variance, and you have to deal with good/bad sessions, exciting and boring sessions. Great video! Hope you play in the WPT this December would love to meet you!
Keep at it Lex, you’re the greatest. You’re going on an upswing soon.
Nice to see the bad as well as the good.
Please show the Ups and Downs, there is a lot to learn from a losing session. You have one of the best Vlogs
The same thing happens online Lex. The 45 hand at mine was the guy had at 57 off suit play stupid s***getting hosed.
Before I see the flop on the KhKd hand at 7:00 +/-, I TOTALLY agree with a flat out of position. Considering his $2,500 stack and your willingness to get stacks in no matter what, let him jam, even with an A-high flop🤮. You've seen this done with QQ & JJ too, Lex!
GREAT play pre - now let's watch the outcome...🤔
Great outcome! You never found out his hand, correct? A win is a win!💰👍
Damn Lex, get out of the lightning at the end bro!
10/10 results oriented thinking
That ham where your opponent have the 4/5…. That was painful. That shit hurt my feelings.
Loved ur video today. Sometimes this is how poker goes. There were couple of spots u couldve gone for the bluff and get owned. You dodged them very well, and i would say thats a win! Ur session couldve easily been -10k/20k.
It is best not to battle someone either rec or reg who is running hot, especially when u r not running good. Great job on ur session and this video.
Just subed today!
Love your Vlogs Lex! Keep grinding! I learn alot from u sir! Thank you
Thanks Lex
Good job Lex oh, it was your day to bleed, but you kept the bleeding to a minimum, take a day off clear your head, get back in there!
Lex you’re getting very interesting and fun to watch
Nothing like some Rogue therapy after a bad day at the tables. Lol. Have you considered showing your running bankroll like David Kaye does?
Vedio was great as always..I always look forward to watching new ones when you post them and you excellent player..I do have question you mentioned in past that if table is not good for whatever reason whether it's bunch of pros or if you getting coolered it's time to switch table or something...my question if u at table and someone is sun running do I feel like it's time to move from tbem cause it seems like they can't loose even if they not better player??
We love rougeie!
I'm sorry better luck next time 😊 At least you show the real side of poker
Don't get struck Lex while filming 🌩
Lol
I like these type of vids cause I feel like majority of my sessions I start losing and or my biggest wins come from bad starts
Awesome video i Bellevue!!! ❤
mama said there'd be days like this
Well, at least your dog still loves you, even though he doesn't know that he will be eating Twin-Pet for the next month.
You’re a good player
Ouch. You'll get it back Lex!
Thanks for posting. Enjoyed the video. Unfortunately, “rage quit” aptly describes how too many of my sessions do.
This is definitely how I’ve been running lately smh a bunch of missed draws and it sucks 😩
Have you ever played tight? Only play the premium cards? Avoid Bluffing? What are your results?
Gotta run like Mariano
Sucks having a rough session like that, sorry dude always rooting for a big W for you! I feel like the KJo hand was a little spray though, I think you can just fold flop given his 2/3 sizing since you don’t really have flush equity, and you’re not that happy with your pair outs. Also holding the J it’s just too think for value on the turn blocking the major draw.
Love the videos and the honest side of poker. Have you ever come up and played at Orange City poker and racing room? Some really good action there. Also was wondering if you ever do any coaching? I live in Central Florida and would love to come down to seminole and play and maybe get some tips and guidance. Love the channel and maybe I'll see you at seminole when I get down there.
Going all in against trip 5s would've signaled Q J. Maybe works, maybe not
Lex you sick puppy
Define Euro pro. In what way do they play differently than any other pro. What are their tendencies? Always love when you hit a card that helps you but improves your opponent. 😢
Rec enjoys playing once a week and -4.5k, -1.5k, -1k, and of course last week -6k… not a good month. It happens but not often
One word FISH
*in it to win it*
✅️
It's good to see non-exciting and anticlimactic poker hands and sessions.
Why are you in Florida when theres soo much action in Vegas??!!!
Because he lives here. And there’s plenty of action in Florida.
Lex, I enjoy your videos, but I think we can be spared the footage of your dog taking a leak
