Still say you hold meet up game, group attendance/after party for Golden Knight's game. I'd travel to Vegas just for that. Bring Anna and star attraction Kayla to help. You gotta have the contacts to pull it off. Would be a spectacular.
I play $1/$2 NL in TX and we have Double Board PLO bomb pots every dealer change. $5 ante and $500 cap/player. IMO Omaha is better suited for these bomb pots as it's somewhat easier to scoop . I use to lose a lot, then I stopped playing in them. A dealer gave me some advice to only play when in late position and that helped with respect to early folding if the flop didn't hit you good. I have since moved on to playing all of them but my VPIP is probably < 15%. I know NLHE bomb pots are a different animal but you might try playing extra tight and see how that works out,
I WISH I had the discipline to only play 2 hands in four hours. One of the reasons I've been watching this channel for so long is because his discipline is some of the best on TH-cam.
Don’t sit out bomb pots. Recs love the bomb pots, so they’re good for the game. Most NL players are not well studied in Omaha and split-pot variants, so if you give it some thought, you should have a huge edge in them.
Every time I see low straights, I find myself wishing that was a Hi-Lo game just from how much more powerful those low straights become. Also that $133 win--peeps, don't be jealous! 🙃
Play the first bomb pot,if you win,you’re able to play another. If you loose your first bomb pot,sit out the next few. If you’re up a buy-in,you could gamble if you felt like it but I’d pocket the money and sit them out the rest of the night.
I hate bomb pots, especially double board bomb pots. Paying by time means our rate per hour is significantly increased. Estimating 2 bomb pots per hour, and 5 minutes per pot is 1/6th of the time you pay for which effectively increases your rate by 20%. They ought to have games where no bomb pots are allowed or rake the pot instead of charging by time. It’s why I don’t play at card rooms here in Austin. They play PLO double board bomb pots MORE then twice an hour and PLO takes forever.
5:37 No. This is not check back. You bet $250 again. Charging pair of A, 2 pairs and sets. . 6:10 there is not much to think about. Player folded a pair of A realizing they're not good. Just good play by him.
The bomb pots can be brutal or very profitable. I don't mind playing them, but if I do not have a chance at both boards or there are not at least 3-4 players putting in money, I am not going crazy for possibly just half a pot.
Asking whether you should check back a straight on river is the wrong question. The right question is asking how you can improve your play so that folding top pair against you isn't profitable.
On the 4h river in position if you’re going to reopen the action need to go for a much larger size to make it worth betting unless you are just bet folding always assuming these opponents never find a bluff. Live poker obviously theory not all that important but going $200 into $900 in position on the rover just asking to get punished ( if villains are capable)
My take on bomb pots. Keep playing them! You don't want to give off the image of being a Nit or not wanting to give action. With that said, tighten up and only continue postflop, when you flop "huge". Never continue with Q7 when you flop Q hi on one board. What I'm basically saying is do not not play them and look like a Nit. Just play them as a Nit would. Make sense?
BEN I HAVE TOLD YOU BEFORE IN THE COMMENTS TO SIT OUT BOMB POTS THERE IS NO SKILL IN THEM ITS ALL GAMBLE BETTER TO LOSE 10MIN IN TIME THEN A BIG NUMBER IN LOSSES YOU SHOULD START A PETITION TO BAN THEM WITH OTHER PLAYER......... HOW DO THEY FEEL ABOUT THEM MAYBE THE SAME AS YOU AND ME.
Against 2 opponents your hand is never a check back, especially against these two. It's unfortunate you didn't get paid off that river will pay dividends in the long run because one of those times, you will get looked up. Also, by not checking back, you never have to show down when having the best hand, keeps your opponents guessing
To aspiring poker pro’s don’t be like this. Gamble with the fish. Play bomb pots and run some -ev spots. You will make more money in the long run i promise. See how Ben doesn’t get paid by top pair vs the whale in that spot. The whale knows ben has no gamble in him so reciprocates with no action
You should have your watchers vote on you continuing your updates or getting rid of them because they are really stupid ind boring. Other than that I enjoy your content.
You went all the way to Portland... and didn't play at Portland Meadows??? 😞
His girl got him on lockdown
"... you have to preserve yourself..."
Ben, the guy SLID. THAT shouldn't happen.

Plays 2 hands in 4 hours. Wonders why someone folds top pair
You are a nit Ben. Believe it
Yuhhh okie there, relax maverick.
Are you not listening? The only hands "of note" played. He played more than two hands in that time. He just didn't talk about them.
@@robertsherman8482then how am I down $6000 for November ?

2:49 they prob hAd a weak flush draw and just wanted to buy it
Ben are you still working at the TV station ?
yep

Did you get a chance to play in Portland at all? No rake and decent action. I usually play at the Final Table.

My home game has plo bomb pots every orbit. Talk about gambling! I only play when in good position and take a stretch break for the others.

when is the DEACH wpt grift code coming? ✌️
"Is this a check against two opponents?"
Not those two opponents. You're getting called by all the sets and two pairs.
You should always play DBBP when you're in the BTN. and skinp them when you are UTG or EP.
You still took a loss in this video, it was those seats at the blazers Kings game. Upper level for an awful team 😂
Asking whether you should check back a straight on river is the wrong question. The right question is asking how you can improve your play so that folding top pair against you isn't profitable.
Looks like you've earned an OMC card when the dude w/the A folded!

Brutal cold decks
Cmon how do you not play at Portland meadows?!?!

He's the biggest nit in the game!
6:19 if u cant get paid by the loosest player at the table you shouldnt even play at that table! 😂

More Kayla pls, lol 😅😅
Yes, and add some Stormy.
`why are you calling and then folding the Jacks????? especially on that ten high flop??
That’s why they call it “grinding “.
Against 2 opponents your hand is never a check back, especially against these two. It's unfortunate you didn't get paid off that river will pay dividends in the long run because one of those times, you will get looked up.

Amazing vlog❤
If enough players sit out the bomb pots, maybe they will quit dealing them.
They very well might. But then some of the action players who love them will quit playing in your game.
Been watching since 5k subs....you and Boski are my favorites

I snap-mucked KK when he led the turn on a 9942 rainbow board

Likes video before watching - this is the way with Deach.
Oregon? Didn't they legalize meth and heroin?
Grinding it out on his leather ass? No thank you. I thought so too now I know what real work is, speaking of which are you going to get a job?
You should have your watchers vote on you continuing your updates or getting rid of them because they are really stupid ind boring. Other than that I enjoy your content.
Do you play 72 every time you get it? Learn how to skip a couple seconds or minutes lol.
Hmm no Kayla?guess she is slowing getting cancelled!! 😞
Why would you play in a shitty game like that?
Need more Stormy
