Guys... Stop commenting on the “TWO OUTTER”. I assumed you all would catch on that I meant he hit the “2 outs for the King” and not the flush or two pair outs! My mistake for assuming that 😂 It was a editing mistake to not elaborate and I will try harder to be clearer in the future... now stop it!!! 😂
Always backseat drivers ;-)
You did perfect against him with ur AA I think except I would have raised pre flop more and if someone calls they call but if not then you don’t loose money to a weak hand but good play
I would have checked that river too
I understood what you meant by two outter! If he had hit the flush he would have hit the nine outer, just relative to hoe the hand played out!
Got me missing live poker for real...
I’m honored you watched! 😊
Where have you been Andrew???
Andrew sighting.....
I assume you will be getting(if you haven't already)some of your B-roll music from @PokerfaceAsh. Those are some groovy tunes!
Neeme. WTF.........Where have you been?? Any vlogs coming up?
Good job checking back that river against the calling station!
Absolutely love the check back on the river. Cringeworthy card without question.
For a river bet, you can’t get a better hand to fold or really any worse hand to call, so a check is absolutely awesome.
Thanks for sharing your background and showing the basketball skills. I miss those days of high school sports. You’re tremendously talented and this poker thing is definitely your niche. It’s mentally challenging and you always have an opponent to test your skills. We crave this competition as athletes. Love the smile,it’s perfect!
Props to Brad Owen for linking PokerfaceAsh's Vlog in his last video! Ash you're doing a great job, you're fun to watch.
That behind back pass on the opening credit was nice 👍
Glad to see some vlogs coming out of AZ, and this one is good already. Cant wait to see you navigate some tough spots when someone max raises you yet you got pot odds.
Good to have a female poker vlogger on the scene! I really enjoyed your video and respect the fact your out there grinding and chasing your dreams. It was nice to see some shots of Talking Stick as that was my home base as a reg for about a year or so before I moved out to Vegas and intermittently before that. Happy grinding and good luck!
Your music is dope 🔥🔥🔥
Your review of Talking Sticks is almost spot on to my experience. I have found that the staff is not too friendly. On the AA hand, I agree with the check on the river.
Ash, the music does adds to the vlog the same as it does with the other vlogs. Very nicely done. 😁
The AA hand. Given the thumbnail sketch on the villains image, it seems like he was likely looking to get call trappy at some point during a hand. In short, if he's playing his hands virtually face up and would have alot of Kx in his range, an exploitative check back is fine here and U minimize your loss.
Another fine vlog as always. We'll be here for vlog #3. 😊
I completely agree and weighted him heavily towards any K combination. As well as straight draws & flush draws which don’t call river bet. As he was VPIP 95% lol
Liked your little intro on yourself. To me just being a starter on a high school team in your sport of choice is enough to earn respect. Even more so to play at college level (any division) and to be an All American. Respect!
The AA vs K7 hand is a definite check back when the K hits the river. Nice job👊
Ah there was a flush draw on the board also and from the dynamic she described he could be playing any 2 cards. I think going for thin value and closing vs a check raise is also ok in some spots.
Nice fold on the river. I love playing poker in talking stick.
Super hyped to finally see a poker vlogger from AZ on TH-cam!! Just moved back home to Mesa after going to school in LA and playing at the Bike, Commerce, and Hollywood Park Casino. I have yet to make it out to Talking Stick and We-Ko-Pa. Super excited to see where the vlog goes and the music that comes along with it :)
Yooo! That’s awesome! Thank you 😊 welcome back to AZ, hope to see you at the tables 😎
What a pleasant surprise to see this young lady starting out on her poker videos... sounds like you are a smart and well balanced person with a great attitude... best wishes 👍✌️
Outstanding vlog. My suggestions: shorter b-roll, and maybe sharing the results for your cash in/out. Great job!
Yes, I forgot to mention the buy-in and cash out at the end 🤦🏻♀️ thanks for watching!
Nice vlog. Looking forward to following the journey. Good luck on the felt.
After many decades in the game as a reg and rec I love the grind and growth, only plo for me now. I remember playing in the tent at Scottsdale at TsR or what we used to call CAZ.
Hey, Ash, subbed a while back and I'm going through your early vlogs. I liked the format, a little of your past, a little of your present, and some live poker play. This was early in your vlogging so don't worry about your editing and the sound. You did miss doing a recap on how well you did, looked like you were up 200 but hard to tell. I like that you do your own music entro. Do you use a digital mixer to lay down the different tracks? Have you watched any music videos from Dovydas? He performs a lot solo in small venues while his wife films them. He will have a couple guitars including a seven string, a keyboard, an electronic drum pad, and a loop station. He plays some of his original music but also takes a lot of requests. If he has heard but doesn't really know a particular selection, like Steve Vai's Tender Surrender, he will pull it up on his phone and listen to some of it, lay down a beat, the bass line, and a rhythm section on the loop station and then play the lead live. He is very good, you should check him out.
Great checkback on the river considering the live read. It's ok to lose battles to ultimately win the war
I liked your soft spoken personality, GO Ash!
the casino recording where the PA comes in reminded to of Jaman Burton on the tram in Vegas, lol.
I like your music. Light, fun, catchy.
He didn't catch a two outer if he flopped a flush draw and could hit two pair. I like your check on the river. You are not getting called by anything, but a king, especially if he knows he has blockers and doesn't have you on a flush draw. I am surprised he never took control of the hand though. You're right. Very passive player. I live in Mesa and expect a lot of passive play at TSR. Been playing there for 18 years. Enjoying your channel.
You’re a grinder....nice play on the river. Lots of these other bloggers would be firing back for value. Excellent discipline and patience. If you’re ever bored of the west coast scene, we have excellent play here on the east coast!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Glad I found your channel it's been a lot of fun & I can't wait to watch more videos
Such a positive attitude about your new journey is awesome. No matter what the financial results are in the end I’m sure your great personality will allow you to make many new friends along the way. As the great one use to say, may all your cards be live and your pots be monsters.
I agree! It’s all about the journey & giving yourself the best opportunity to succeed! Thanks for watching 😊
Keep em coming #20.... that jumpshot is
wet🔥.... good video Franky🤙
You played that AA hand the only way you could. A lot of other players would have lost a lot more then you did. Keep it up!
yep, pretty much a crapshoot at that point. this is why i never go all-in with pocket aces. they get cracked way too often.
All kinds of crazy talents. Can’t wait to see more!
Just want to say that I watched one of your most recent videos and Immediately became a Fan. You earned my Like & Subscribe with that One Video. And now I am going back and watching some of your older content. Which I am glad I did because I just learned that You are a Local here in Phoenix. As am I. I play at Talking Stick from time to time, but more often at Lone Butte. One thing worth mentioning is that NOW > as of just about 21 months ago. We "DO" Have *No Limit* Poker. No More Spread Limit like before. Anyways, maybe I will see you out and about at a Table or Two. Good Luck and Keep up the Great Work.
The check back on the river with AA is definitely the right play with a loose passive type. Not going to get called by worse on the river after getting two streets of value. Great Content!
Yooo! Thank you so much!
Awesome check on the river!
Talking Stick is definitely great although personally I am not a fan of their chairs. For that Aces hand once the top card pairs I think checking back the river is definitely the best play.
I agree. She did the right thing IMO.
You are cool.. after watching Brad and Rampage. U r definately a breath of fresh air. . I wish you all the best in your journey.. love from Darjeeling.. ❤️❤️
Ash! I learned more about you in the first four minutes than the past 2 years! Nice! Thanks! ;) Miss y'all!
Awwww thanks!! Miss all you guys!
I LIKE YOUR VLOGS (yes, I screamed because you are very good). I subbed after watching #6 (when I first found you).
Thank you! Let’s go! 🔥
good video. thanks for the background info. best of luck at the tables! pretty soon youll be hosting meetup games
You followed your gut on the river and I would have done the same. After getting a lot out of him, the poker gods was probably going to give something back to him. In the end you saved yourself some money so it was a good call. Love the channel so far, binge watching you videos at work (don't worry, Its a 24 hour shift so management doesn't mind) and look forward to more in the future.
That form on the jumper though... Hooper in the house. Lol
Love the freeway shot. Makes me miss home. Looking forward to more vlogs!
I played at Talking Stick all Summer. Great room.
Hi Ashley, I'm new to your blog. Love what you are doing. I'm a fan of other Bloggers like, Andrew Neme, Mariano, Brad Owen, and Rampage, to name a few. Good luck to you in ALL your PokerLife endeavors. Go deep at the 2022 WSOP events.
I probably would have gone into bet fold on the River. Lotsa hands you could get Callie from; pocket 8s through jacks (depending on what his calling/raising range). Results oriented though, good read.
That was a good check back on the river. If he doesn't have a king or better there what is he calling? You already said he was folding some turns that you were barreling so he is obviously not just calling down with any hand. Good job.
Like the vlog. Nice 3 pointer in the intro.. Talking stick was good to me about 10 years ago when I won the good part of a bad beat.
Thanks! I’ve never even been part of a bad beat yet 😭
Loved it! I’ve been playing poker since August 2020 and I definitely love the game. I have been really working on my game to play a lot better.
Nice to finally have a Poker Vloger here in Arizona... Good Luck at the Tables Ashley 🥳🥳🥳
Thank you so much!
Great job! I loved the music and always looking for new stuff to listen to while I play in my online home games. It will be pretty cool to see how your poker and vlog skills progress. Good luck!
Thank you! I’m so glad you liked it & I’m excited to get better at Vlog editing! 😊
Liking it so far! What you made this music?! That’s incredible!!! I found you today lol
That’s one nice looking poker room!
watching your older videos after watching the TCH live session. On the AA hand. It's a check back. Villian's limp-call range has many King x hands. Also he is passive. He didn't raise when he flopped two pair with 5,6, ealier. On river. Your Aces only beat a missed club draw or straight draw w/ 78. Betting it wouldn't get called by worse.
Mini Magic Johnson. Nice!
Boriqua !!! (sorta) Muy Bien !! Congrats and good luck on your new, new endeavor..
Nice vlog, enjoyed the music-not to loud as some do with music. Also enjoyed your insight of the room at Talking Sticks, and agree with your description of the room, having played there on past trips before everything went crazy.
Yes, spread limit only slightly different then no limit, and depending on tables make up, will still play the same.
As too the pocket Aces hand, I might have sized up a little more on the turn, but with you'r read on the player and the fact he could have been playing any KX, either was fine. Then another King on the river, definitely checking back. If he would have valued bet the same as your turn bet, you would have a much harder decision. Don't know if he would have announced two pair with a check raise on the turn, but with the King on the river, agree he was trying to trap you.
vlogging poker is hard in general ... keeping up with hand histories while still paying attention to the action and players. Liking the content good luck on the felt
Hey 👋 Ashley I Really Enjoyed Your Content! Positive Vibes 🙏 From San Diego California 💖
1st female poker vlogger I’ve come across. Perhaps you are the first ever ? Anyway, nice change up from all the men. Nice to see. There’s tons of female players at all levels of course, so you shouldn’t be the first vlogger but maybe you are. Of course I enjoy watching the men too, but it’s nice to see this as a change up to that.
Marle over at run it once started out as a poker vlogger, but her channel had some mixed reviews.
On the villains trip kings as soon as you said you cringed, I did the same, against such a loose passive who we see continue on a turn there and then that specific card coming we essentially get no value from missed draws and middle pairs that wouldn’t let go (which now more than likely would to a bet) and as such I don’t mind the check back. Against so many more versatile players we could go for value when they won’t let go of some other pocket pairs, but given your notes on villain it was fine to me.
I agree! :)
In the hand you had pocket aces against the villain's king seven suited, you stated that he "hit his two-outer" to beat you on the river. Obviously, this is incorrect as he had 14 outs. Given that he flopped so huge with his trashy hand, you only had approximately 50% equity on the flop. Your check back on the river against this type of opponent was completely standard in low limit live poker, in my opinion. Overall, I think you played the hand perfectly with my only comment is that you should not make unintelligent comments like "hit his two outer" in your post hand analysis as it looks like sour grapes to me. Obviously, you want players to continue to limp/call hands like K7s to your in position raises, accept the variance and move on. Nice hand.
@@gregorystgermain713 🙄 spare me bro... He hit his two outer. She’s played professionally for 3 years, she knows what she meant, I know what she meant. He had 2 outs to hit a king and 9 for a flush. You can chop it up anyway you want, but frankly I’m glad you took the time to make this comment. It always says a lot about folks like you. In my experience it just means she’s doing the right thing making content, haters are the best following you can have, free advertisement.
@@gregorystgermain713 sigh 🤦🏻♀️ I meant instead of hitting his flush outs, he hit the king which had 2 outs. I know what a two outter is playing poker for a living lol. I assumed people would follow what I meant. Oops. Should have worded it differently but most people seem to know what I meant. If you think that’s “unintelligent”... you’re going to see a lot more unintelligence on the Vlog 😂 thanks for watching!
Doyle Brunson was a college basketball player. His injury led him to a world class career in poker.
I love that poker room, and I live in Vegas. 😄
Us AZ player always glad To see TSR in any Vlog. Glad Your doing this. Hope to see you one of these days on the felt \m/
Yooo! Thanks so much! see you on the felt!
New subscriber, Great quality film , commenting and content. Please keep the good work up.Thank you from Argentina 🇦🇷 !!
Love it! Thank you so much for watching! 😊
With AA. And that river King, I would insta check the river
Great vlog! Definitely my favorite casino in the Phoenix area. Best of luck to you moving forward.
Thank you so much!
New to your channel, great content, you will do well. I think you have to check back the k6 board. You had been punishing him pretty good, perfect spot for him to get payback. You were smart enough not to let that happen. Great job
Awesome life story 👍🏾
Good check back on river with AA. I know it’s probably more work, but showing the cards (instead of words) would be cool. GREAT music!
Yes I will add that in the next Vlog - still figuring this out :) thanks for watching!
Good quality content. I look forward to following you on your poker journey. Digging the Hero v. Villain! Great way to keep watchers interested. People love to cheer for the good guy/girl. Also maybe instead of crowding your text box with "6s6c Flop was 7d8s9h...." use a 4-color scheme. A black and green 6 and so on. Lastly and most importantly...... great check back. Keep up the good play.
Thanks for watching! Graphics coming soon :)
OMG im from Az too. Im still learning about poker but I love it too. Glad I found your channel. Good luck
Yo! Thank you! I’m glad you found it too 😊
King is a scare card. Would’ve been a real hard lay down imo if he bet because it’s polarizing... sometimes aces get cracked.
Love watching you play, keep going.
Loved the video. Keep at it! Can't argue with any of your plays on this one.
Part time Maricopa resident here. Currently stuck in Canada until the borders open up. Pretty sure I've played with you at the Arena before. Hopefully make my way back to Talking Stick soon.
Glad you liked it; thanks for watching! Hopefully see you at the tables again soon! 🔥
Yeah you should come to Jacksonville Florida and play some no limit hold them I’m sure you’ll enjoy yourself.
Great vlog! 2 suggestions... Purely my preference so take em for what its worth.... Maybe switch to card icons displaying the runouts? Easier visually and maybe announce you cash out result? Keep it up!
Talkin Stick is a great room. Last time I was at the TS 5 of us got all in with about a $1600 pot. I flopped a set and was counting that pot thinking i paid for my trip to series in vegas. Then I guy rivered a straight. I think i won a few bucks on side pot but man i was disappointed. lol okay no bad beat stories.First time I was there they had about 30 games going on a Tuesday night.
When ball is life, 100% check the river there with aces
Great start good luck 👍
Thank you so much! 😊
Very nice! Follow u on Ig but this is the first vlog I’ve watched looking forward to more and about to watch a few now😎GL on the felt see u soon♠️🎶
Hey! Thank you so much for the support! I’m so glad you like the Vlog 😊 🙏🏻
Good check on the river w/AA hand
I had no clue you vlogged I follow you on Twitter!
Glad to see you filming I also live in the valley!
Yo that’s awesome! Thank you for watching 😎
Great music
Pssssssh. After a couple minutes of listening to you speak it is CLEAR that you’re going to crush this poker vlog game. Well spoken, charismatic, not many women in the scene (if any 🤔).. and it certainly doesn’t hurt that you’re pretty. Get ready for this channel to really take off!
Agreed. A female who’s voice is pleasant, understanding of the game, decent looks and a deep cash. Channel will blow if (relative to other poker blogs)
they're several female vloggers
@@charlesfoutch1132 havent heard of one
@@PriusMike88 Marle is one and P's and Q's Poker Vlog.
Good for you Ash. Keep working hard, even through the lows
Thank you, 💯 😊
I think the main rule is "You can't bet/raise less than the previous bet/raise UNLESS that puts you all in" You have 500, someone bets 300, you could raise all-in if you felt you had the best hand.
river size with the two pair can't be much of a mistake vs a calling station, want to keep all his top pairs in there and maybe even get a call from 2nd pair or a stubborn middle pocket pair. make it huge and you could fold out too much value. nice vlog
Truly inspired
Like the music for sure, cool to hear your story as well. Maybe we'll end up playing at the same table sometime in Vegas or at Talking Stick.
Loved it
Arizona in the house
Whoop Whoop!!! 🙌🏻
I love it!!!!
Your intro was perfect. Everyone thinks playing poker for a living is all fun and games. Its extremely hard, it will eat you up and spit you out over and over and over again.(Nothing you can do about the AA hand, shitty river)
😂🤣🤣🤣 was the villain a black guy with a hoodie??
Nice video. Good luck in your new endeavor...I think you're going to do very well :). I would've have checked the river on the AA hand as well
Thank you!!
Good content , keep it up !
Liked. Subscribed. Notifications on. Awesome stuff, Ash. looking forward to more.
I was the losing player to that 10-7 hand. Nice to see a vloger based in Arizona. See you at the tables!
Thank u 🙏🏻 See you at the tables! 😎
Already have seen a suggestion to replace the text board with visual cards and suits. The other thing that very much every poker vlogger does at the end of the video is declaring how much they won, or lost, in that section. Tracking the win rate per hour is not a bad idea. Good start.
Thanks for the feedback! And yes I forgot to mention how the session ended... 🤦🏻♀️ next time!
You’re so adorable young lady. You would be hard not to like. What a nice family story too. Good luck with the vlog. There are too few female poker vloggers, but that actually works in your favor.
