I went through a months long downswing, glad I didn’t give up… it all came back and then some. Love how much effort you put into your vlogs and editing- it doesn’t go unnoticed- editing is tough- I dabble
Nice man!!!!! I love the motivation!!!! A6 was obviously played quite bad, but we all make mistakes here and there and glad to see your motivation!!! Keep with the focus and learning and crush it!!!
If Rampage had this much self-awareness about his poker skills and motivation to study and improve, he would have lost much less money in the past two years. I applaud your commitment to being a better poker player, and I wish you the best on this journey.
@@christopherton He lost about ONE MILLION DOLLARS in cash games mostly by playing like a donkey this year!! This is excessive, even ridiculous, by any standards. No matter how much money he is making from other sources, he should NEVER be losing this much money in poker in one year! And if Rampage had even half the self-awareness and motivation for poker that Kiran shows right now, he would have lost much less money in cash games this year.
@@VegasPoker123 you’re watching partial videos. Edited They’re trying to provide entertainment. We wanna see guys punt and scoop large pots. It’s just like Hollywood Did he really punt a million ? Maybe. Probably. Now he creates videos to chase that milly. Sponsors love him to sell their products while people loook on. IMHO
@@VegasPoker123 watch Corey eyrings videos. Very little is actually about poker. He’s telling a story. Trying to get views and subs through an interesting POV
@@christopherton I am pretty sure Rampage didn’t intentionally punt a million dollars just for “entertainment value” and extra clicks and views. It’s not like he’s earning $10 or $15 million a year solely from his TH-cam channel, merchandise, and sponsors. If he actually did do this, he’s a bigger idiot than I thought!
The Q10 hand is a great example of pretty average poker. Your in their battling in a marginal situation, you make your hand and instead of going for value or allowing villain to potentially bluff you make a wacky all in overbet which has 3 possible scenarios (1) he snaps it off with a full house K9, 99, KJ or flush;(2) he folds trips because the front door flush came in and a possible straight is on the board or he puts you on a full house; (3) he folds complete air as has nothing and was bluffing because he thought you had nothing. So you completely let him off the hook. So an all in bet there just can not be a +EV play. Maybe you can justify it because you are constantly bluffing and in there with garbage all the time but I still feel you are almost always facing these scenarios.
You need to do whatever other POKER influencer is doing. They’ve realize that they’re not any better than the average decent player, and they have decided to monetize their audience and become professional influencers and use POKER as a hobby. Spend a lot of time going to different poker venues, Win or lose a little bit as the losses won’t matter compared to the income from your side gig POKER influencing. Everybody wins under the scenario. You just aren’t significantly better than the people you’re playing cards with. You are significantly better than the average person trying to put out entertainment on TH-cam. The work needed to make your first choice of income, your most profitable form of income, you’re not willing to do, and even if you did do it, you would hate the kind of poker player you would make you. So congratulations on being a wonderful entertainer and good luck monetizing your subscribers, I am one of them and I am rooting for you.
Kiran? "How does one get to the Philharmonic? Practice, Practice, Practice...." IE= study, study, study... Also? Patience is a virtue (but requires massive discipline...) I learned to come to enjoy getting to know my tablemates while practicing that discipline..spots and hand selection will Always come around... Good Luck, my friend... *"It's the friends we make along the way that will be our Best Blessings" 💪🏾💪🏻💪
The two hands I saw were 10 5 off and a5 probably the last two hands I would ever want to see attached my chips being all in - tight may not always be right but it works more often than not
having a whole montage ending with i'm gonna get so much better and just win then cutting to the dumbest OOP squeeze is wild lol. Good luck getting better tho, seriously!
The one thing you’re going to have to understand, and this may take away one of the major regions while you play poker, is that playing better will be much much more boring than you’re used to. Solid POKER, assuming you’re not in very loose games with whales With you probably not at the stake you’re playing, is boring. It’s just who can play tighter than the other guy. If you can’t play above the rim, and that’s very difficult to learn you either have you don’t, then playing tight in position is the only way to win Long Termin the games you’re playing. This is a realization that I have had to deal with over the past few years.
i think your logic when losing was sort of shifting towards a doug polk style of winning pots by bombing turn and river with blockers . but one thing i heard jungleman say is that solvers still prefer to pile in money with a favorable run out. when i think of how i want to play hji stakes i think of mike x and how his very tight aggressive nit style still works
Not being critical by any means but you hit quite a few hands & rivers that you're not always gonna get...if you've been running cold maybe tighten up a bit.
I remember watching your first video 4s years ago. You were one of my favorites as your play and explanations were next level. Next thing I knew, you were the only vlogger playing absolute rags. It was unbearable. Stopped watching it. Id imagine you went on a bad down swing and kinda felt unlucky and started pressing. What ever the case may be, I just want you to know your on the right track rn and have the capabilities of being one of the best in the world. Stay patient, keep your head up, you got this bro Edit: if your looking for motivation, look no further then those videos. Literally miss the long winded explanations.
You know what the problem is …you lost patience bro I’m going through this same scenario I don’t have the time to play so I donk it all away in the end lol 🤦🏻♂️
The hustler have some shady practices, I enjoy watching it . But I don't trust them or there security protocols . But you're looking healthy bro keep it up
Take a small break. Study constantly, like Jonathan Little says to do. Go back down to the level you were killing it at. Make sure you're resting, eating, and exercising properly. Talk to friends of the same poker level, and ask what they do when facing adversity. These things will reinforce your skill level, and reclaim your confidence. Truth, Kiran.
He says he's gonna have to maximize his wins right after playin 2 hands so bad that he won the minimum amounts possible. I didn't see how the hustler hands played but seein that one was T5o, its hard to believe the sessions didn't go well. Definitely here for the chaos but constructive criticism in poker is crucial.
You claim to have made $50k a year over the past 10 years…..A $40k downswing is called variance, not to mention HCL is not real poker. It’s extremely entertaining but some of the play is “made for tv”
I used to play poker for a living you don't have what it takes. No disrespect just my honest opinion. But if you stream enough maybe can keep you playing.
@@RandySchmitz I was pro making that in 2015 when 50k was 50k! Now I’m in tech sales and couldn’t imagine living off 50k… with the swings of poker too… 50k is nothing today.
$50k a year isn't success. That's $50k with no benefits. You can make that much flipping burgers. Give this up, go to school and do something useful with your life.
Bro im sure im not the only one telling y this but the first thing you need to do to win is lose that jay nose ring and that queer hair color and man up.. you will find a hole new world in the other side of things… and believe me… some testosterone will boost your confidence.

How to ID the male fish, look for nose ring
I love boomers who think nobody under the age of 25 can play poker 😂😂

5:24 how do you have open ended straight flush draw with the 10 of spades?
also said in previous hand he had backdoor flush draw when he also had backdoor straight draw. he is the fish at the table. ha
Good to see some poker players that don't just post highlight reels. It's a tough game. Wishing you luck and run good!
A wise old man once told me “ money won gambling is money borrowed at a high rate of interest “. Truest statement ever spoken!

From what i have seen in your vlogs lately the title is spot on.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Better than when you started 10 years ago.....I feel like people have gotten significantly better over the last 3 years.
Think he’s got significantly worse
@@DavidAlba-u4q I wasn’t commenting on his quality of play, I was talking about the player field getting better

You got that "bait" stuck in your nose... 🎣
I love your content and poker abilities
HES BACK
it just looks like no one is enjoying poker at the commerce 5-5, idk why
never play there. Bike is so much better
Go down in stakes and get your focus back!
Take a small break. Study constantly, like Jonathan Little says to do. Go back down to the level you were killing it at.

It's definitely the nose ring.
Miss you bro
Your game has always been flop no equity and keep betting and either get there by the river or get them to fold.
Good Morning Young Man
Lmao starts off the video w A6 off out of position

50k a year….. LOL

Who cares?
