@@garyblackwoodpoker Another thought I had, is it possible to keep all the action from preflop onwards on the screen? Maybe tucked on the left hand side of screen? Sometimes I miss something and it’s nice to read the info like a hand history to prevent me from rewinding a few seconds.
Hi Gaz! I'm going to London in a week and will be playing some poker. Any chance I will see you at the Victoria or the Hippodrome then? Love the content by the way, cheers!
I think the difficulty level is very similar tbh, same reg/rec ratio. The difference is the atmosphere, whilst it's not a bad atmosphere in the UK, the US just feels a lot more fun and laid back. Also far less strict when it comes to player affordability checks etc. I do slightly prefer it over there but I still love to play here!
sick video as always. I played live today at the hippo (3rd time playing live) 2nd from last hand before sitting out I spew off £260 with 66 on Kh flop lol to end the night down £41 + tube fair. Gotta say takes so much patience to play and they seem to hate folding.
One of my mistakes during my Isle of Man residency was not going to see a Premier league match. It seems to be an other-world experience. Maybe next time.
I feel like if you're gonna call a re-raise with an overbet pre-flop, you have to continue for at least one street on safe flops. Any opponent is gonna c-bet in a 4-bet pot, so if you're not folding pre-flop, how can you fold on a 9-high flop?
I agree, it's a bit of a wild fold. There's a difference though between facing a £150-£200 cbet and a half pot cbet in my opinion. It's a very VERY tight fold, but maybe tight is right? Maybe it's awful. It's probably somewhere in between.
Yep it's super tempting, would I raise a 7 here though? I'm unsure. I guess with two flush draws out there I would, so maybe raise turn/shove river is the play!
Been to West Ham a couple of times and thought it was like a library. Silent and disinterested compared to my team (Pompey) and a lot like watching American sport. Millwall and Orient are better options.
One thing I don't like about some of your folds is that you don't seem to consider how under-repped you are. You're playing at stakes where these guys can do anything. Take the JJ fold on 996, that's a super safe board to c bet AK for that amount when it was 4 bet already.
I don't think any hand wants to cbet for that amount tbh, generally when you're in position in 4 bet pots you want to use smaller bets, so it was worrying to me when the half pot cbet came in. It's certainly a spot I might get roasted for folding, and I accept that, but generally we face smaller bets there and when we face a bigger bet it felt much more likely my opponent had QQ+
@garyblackwoodpoker but as you said they'd want to use smaller sizing even with nutted hands like AA/KK. This is exactly why I was saying you can't predict people at these stakes in a live game. I'm not trying to roast you either btw was just saying you're underrepped a lot when you fold hands and it should be accounted for more often imo.
1. Still no sign of Victoria C-M in your vlog. 2. Drunken Lime-bike drive through the streets of London. In the dark. In the rain. What could possibly go wrong? Get 5k more subs and treat yourself to an Uber imo.
I had 13 minutes left of a ride-pass from earlier in the day! I tweeted VCM but no reply and I don't wanna pester her. Maybe one day our paths will naturally cross :)
Its a very very black wood, still hearing Tyson FUrys voice, very controversial things going on here besides boxing, cant watch it anymore :D Id unsubscribe if I was subscribed :D Props to Gary though
Something a wee bit different this week to begin! As ever if you enjoy the poker content a like/comment/sub would be just lovely
Production quality of the vlogs has seen a massive upgrade! Loving the graphics. Keep them coming!
Thank you, my editor will be most proud

Enjoyed a wee bit of fitba in the beginning. Respect for vlogging through your downswing. Hope the run good is not too far away.
Thanks! I try and be as transparent as possible, cannot stand these c***s who only post winning stuff all the time.
NittyB123. 😂 great video. I like the fact that you show the exact actions taken during the hand in the hud. Keep it up. Get some rungood
Thank you! Lots of work for the editor but worth it :)
lmao, those post poker/pint lime rides are brutal
Great thin value spots! Look forward to you turning this year around.
Thin value is the key to live poker, they just do not fold!

think you played extreeeememely well this session. gg’s ul
Up the hammers!!! ⚒️
Would have been hilarious if you made it the river with the JJ 🧲 across from you 😂😂
Hey Gary, how does live poker in the EU compare to poker in the US? Harder? easier?
I think the difficulty level is very similar tbh, same reg/rec ratio. The difference is the atmosphere, whilst it's not a bad atmosphere in the UK, the US just feels a lot more fun and laid back. Also far less strict when it comes to player affordability checks etc. I do slightly prefer it over there but I still love to play here!
Aspers is close didn’t think of playing there?
Need to get permission to VLOG, but definitely a good shout to ask them if I wanna do it again.
Just having a go scooping up all the boys up from the jay bar.
I'm a superstar at the jay bar
I will be in London in may or june! Let's play poker! Greetings from Sweden. 😁
I'll be in LA/Vegas :(
@@garyblackwoodpoker Good! Leave the British fish and chips to me! 😁
How do you play JJ 4 times with no overs
And only win twice!!!!! God I'm so bad haha

Yes, tight is right, patience is key, all the clichés. Hope you had fun!
Motherwell? So are you a Celtic or Rangers fan?
Lmfao you have triggered me so hard and you know it
NGL, I fast forwarded past the soccer clip.
You don’t have to be that guy but I feel you can say “hey can I see? Haha.” But overall you’re right “it does not matter” bravo
I was sooooooooooooooooooooooooo tempted to demand to see, but I was a good boy!
If I fold JJ on a 552 flop, I'm guna be that guy
One of my mistakes during my Isle of Man residency was not going to see a Premier league match. It seems to be an other-world experience.
Maybe next time.
Sorry to hear that Lee, I've been to plenty and whilst it's not as great as Motherwell vs Kilmarnock it scratches the itch for me :)

Love how you played this session, that AJ thin value bet on the river was fantastic. Would love to see more footie on the vlogs too
Thank you! Was fun to do something a little different, maybe more in the future
I thought you were a Citizen, not an Iron. Good luck on the felt
Kinda neither tbh, just got $ on City/Celtic to win the league, looking bleak atm!
Would've been so temptating to just raise his weak cbet on the turn at [11:32]. Yeah you had a pair, but still..

Have been to Orient once but can't remember the atmosphere. West Ham isn't great for an atmosphere but it's better than no live football at all!

They need to change the $100 chip … they look too much like the $5
sometimes the mailman has downswings as well....biting dogs, black ice, etc.
So true tbh. The perfect variance free career doesn't exist!
Not convinced the kq hand is a snap call witn the river. Really doubt many players are finding many bluffs other then j10.
We can chop + beat value, think it's a pretty mandatory call tbh, especially for the price we are being offered.

more soccer in the future and you were biking on the wrong side of the road!
Hahahaha what a wholesome comment.
I should have called a cab instead huh? It’s 20 blocks home! Color.

only watched because you didn’t call it soccer
First
Wizard
Oh my god. The KQ vs JT was just disgusting river 🫢 So unlucky because you know he would’ve bluffed on a blank as well… Jesus
Yes he was waiting for PLO which means he would have 10000000% bluffed the river!
