- I think it's about time we had a fun little get together with some of you fine folks out there. What better place than the f*cking Mirage? (That's a quote from Rounders. This channel is PG.) We got 4 tables of $2/$5 no limit going on a Thursday!
After the poker you guys fed me way too many beers. Sorry about that, Mirage. It was them, not me.

Thanks for being here, guys!
Here's a fun interview I did recently with The Billfold about managing poker money: thebillfold.com/royal-flushes-and-finance-f937ca8cf9ec
P.S. I'm never drinking again.
"I'm never drinking again", yeah, I've said that 100 times after a hangover XD
so thats how you play 6-2 +ev
@pitthepig...he just said a "break" Neeme will never stop even with the hangover....that guys just seems like he is living the life...does he ever have a bad day?
Andrew Neeme ....Suggestion for next game.... friday july 28. i will be visiting vegas then from the Netherlands then.
Andrew Neeme hey Andrew me and some buddies are coming out for the main event and would love for you and Brad to get up another game like that while we're in town if you can. Sounds like it was a ton of fun. Funny, I had a buddy out there playing at the Mirage this same night and he told me you were there playing but obv he was on a different table.
Hi Andrew English Dave here on vacation in Cyprus.... nothing better than laying on a sunbed with a few beers catching some rays and watching you're latest vlog. Thanks again for all the hard work and effort you put in to making these for us, it is greatly appreciated
Sounds like life is pretty damn good English Dave.
I'm trying to figure out what makes Neeme's vlogs so damn good. Is it his video style, his look, the poker analysis?... I don't know but I just can't help but keep watching.
I was thinking the same thing, its all that plus his positive attitude on top of it all which is very inspiring and keeps us all coming back.
It's all about that balanced ego.
mjdj45 i think its his delivery, super friendly, breezy guy, feels like he is really talking to you instead of at you. good production value as well.
mjdj45 I think it's the fact that Andrew seems like at least one friend you have or wish you had. Someone with a proficiency and no major ego. The breakdowns make poker seem approachable. He is good for the game and extremely entertaining. He has inspired me to take my game more seriously and I know I can't be the only one.
"I'm trying to figure out what makes Neeme's vlogs so damn good." 8 to 12 hours of editing per vlog episode.
Looked like a great time. Awesome that you and Brad promote the game of Poker with your fans and also help fill in poker rooms that would not normally be as active for a Thursday night. What you guys do is great for poker. Cheers to you Andrew. Very cool!
Thanks for another great vid, Andrew. Your attention to detail and editing really do show. I know it's a lot of work to put these together and it is much appreciated!
It is a ton of work. But so far it's definitely been worth it. Thanks for noticing.
Andrew you have the ear of 1000s of diehard poker players and fans. You are incredibly valuable to any poker room that you choose to Vlog from. I predict that this will become blatantly obvious to poker management and you will compensated financially and given greater freedom to Vlog at the table. You could easily sponsor something like a "Tuesday" game at a room that normally doesn't get 2-5 and easily create an income stream for the casino that wasn't there before. I also think your fans would love this general idea. nevertheless, great Vlog and continued success!
sure the casino might make $1000 off a night of 2/5 rake in a night after expenses, but seems like the whole casino industry doesn't seem to like their patrons possibly being filmed and put online when 100s of thousands of people will see it.
Andrew, undoubtedly you are truly a nice guy. Without ever meeting you, this genuinely comes through in your Vlogs. Continued success and favorable flops.
I'm starting to realize the production quality has a lot to do with the incredible music choices, you've got good taste Neeme!
i think this might be one of your best vlogs yet, everything came together perfectly, ive never been so invested in a video, well done andrew!!
14:10 "THERE'S my money card, the Jack of Clubs. I have a full house. I want him to THINK I'm pondering a CALL, but all I'm really thinking about is Vegas and the *$@#!& Mirage..."
your vlogs are always so chill to watch. beside poker, this is a lifestyle channel.
How did the JJ not raise you?! You run good haha.
goombas3040 Yeah that was pretty favorable for Andrew.
Agreed.... Jacks Full must push all in.
goombas3040 think it was because it was just a friendly game setting.
Andrews value range on the river is KK, AA and AK. A player of Andrews ability is probably going to fold AK on the river to a check raise so if he does check raise he is folding out all worse and only getting called by better. Personally ,with JJ, I would snap call and assume I'm winning something like 80% of the time.
Alysha Bolden you have a better reason?? i didn't say it made sense. I'm not the moron who just flat called, ask him. But that's my only guess.
cheers to the mirage for the accommodations, bout time a vegas property saw the value in vloggers. I've never been to the mirage, but on my vext vegas trip ill definitely pay them a visit.
This is first time I've ever commented on a RUclips video. Never before have I watched every video (since vlog #3) in a series. I look forward to the next one every time! Keep up the great work Andrew Neeme!!!
Thanks for the comment Kris, and thanks for being here from (almost) the jump!
Damn, should've had this 2 weeks sooner when I was there from Texas. Looked like fun...
This is why everyone loves your vlogs, you interact with the people, pretty chilled out, and never complain about the bad beats. Keep up the good work man.
Also, Mirage imo is the most laid back, people friendly poker room in Vegas. Love it there.
Andrew this format is a great new addition to the vlog! You're bringing back the social element of live play that seems to have been lost over the past few years with all the focus on online play. You're the perect ambassador to get the game of poker as a whole out of the muck. Keep it up man!
Thanks for doing these videos!
I've really enjoyed the live feeds and this video over the last few days, they have been a lot of fun.
Cheers Greg.
This approach by The Mirage, accommodating vloggers to film, paid off big time. Other card-rooms that have been getting a bit up themselves should take note for sure...Well done to you and Brad having the foresight to organise the game(s).
Nice hand 62. You did make good on the drinks. Great time Andrew, thanks.
Btw I wasn't mad, definitely surprised!!!
Funny thing Andrew - I was at the Mirage during March Madness the night you paid a visit. I was chatting with the floor man and asked if he knew there was a celebrity in the house. He said no, so I pointed you out (hope that was OK). He asked who you were and I tried my best to explain what you do. He just gave me a blank stare and said "he better not try to film while he's here". Soooo, short story long, glad to see the Mirage has figured out you are good for the room!
Glad to see the Mirage poker room still supports putting games together for friends, particularly during WSOP. One of my most memorable games was playing 5/10 at the Mirage with friends, where we were straddling in 2 or 3 spots per hand, calling dark after the flop, and basically making the couple of regs filling the spare seats drool over the drunken fish that looked like they were throwing money away. Except that my friends ended up winning. There was a sick 4-way river where the reg holding AA came in third place. I felt fortunate to break even by the end of that session, lol.
Oh breaking even in those types of sizzlers is a win for sure.
That 6-2 hand is exactly the kind of hands they play in LA at live at the bike.
guy with jacks full doesn't raise?? at least you lost minimum i suppose..
Yah I thought the same thing. However, it is pretty risky to raise on a board like that. Andrew's only options would be to either jam or fold. If Andrew did choose to jam he is telling his opponent he has one of four really strong hands (kings full, eights full, aces full, and quads) - only one of which his opponent can beat. The way the hand played out he would put him on either kings full, eights full, or quads.
I'm not saying it's for sure the best play, but I could understand why a player would want to avoid a re-raise (or jam).
I think AK could jam the river, though it ought to be a lead jam instead of check/jam. A busted flush draw with an Ace could check/jam as a bluff, the Ace in hand giving some card removal to increase fold equity. I mean, if JJ put Andrew on AK or 8x and thought a check/jam would never be called, I suppose just calling makes sense, but exactly because Andrew might have A8, K8 or J8, JJ has to jam the river for value.
S P6774 this hand irked me. He has you on kk or aa? He lost some serious value.
Not just KK or AA. He would have him on KK, AA, J8, or quads.
I would respectfully disagree. Jamming after a large bet on the river is risky business when you don't have the nuts (or nut blockers or bluff blockers).
A busted flush draw would be actually a terrible hand to bluff with as you want your opponent to have a busted flush draw. AK would also be a terrible hand to bluff for the exact same reason (you want your opponent to have an AK). Why? Because if he doesn't have AK or a busted flush draw he isn't simply sitting on nut blockers - he has a monster. From MP perspective, Andrew can only have KK, AA, J8, or 88 (both K8 and A8 fold to initial raise; AK or busted flushes would NOT want to raise the river).
The part that is frustrating to the onlooker is that we have the benefit of knowing what cards they have. Would Andrew have called a jam? Probably. The issue is that his opponent had to sweat KK, quads, and AA as very real possibilities (recall that Andrew 3b pre-flop). And I'm sure what the math is, but I doubt very many people have the ability to figure that out in real time.
When in doubt you should always look to hedge your exposure (ie. avoid jamming).
This is awesome. Shows what a great humble human being you are. Hope to run into you when I'm in vegas next week, I'll send a beer over! Cheers!
I, LOVE, THE, LONG VLOGS, plz more, can't get enough. Not only is Andrew a great poker player, but a truly great entertainer and vlogger, we love you Andrew, thanks for all the great vlogs.
"Buzzed Andrew"... new t-shirt's coming. lol
This was a lot of fun. I didn't get a seat at either table with you or Brad because I was pretty late due to plane delays, but you guys did bring a good crowd and nice game to the Mirage. Also didn't get a chance to say hey, but I did give you the head nod hey as you were leaving. Didn't want to bother you while you were cashing out.
It's never a bother, say hi next time. Thanks for being there.
Good times, I'll try and make it out to the next one! Mirage is a really well run poker room, great staff!
Agreed. Yeah come to the next one.
Played some 2/4 today and it was brought up how great your vlogs were at the table, sure enough I am watching ya as soon as get home, another great episode. Cheers bud!
Thoroughly enjoyed meeting you and Brad and playing w you guys, even though i donked off early. Cool fun playing with some really good guys. Fyi, i was the older dude in the red Tahoe shirt, also the first recorded hand w you. Cheers mate, and good lay down.
Big Larry
Great to meet you Larry.
good times, this would be on my list of things to do. camping with bear grylls, fishing with Jeremy Wade and playing poker with Andrew Neeme!
The heat is on Andrew....keep up the good work. I look forward to your vlog as soon as it comes out.
Really enjoy these vlogs man, best of luck in wsop sir.
I would love to hang out with Andrew. I mean not just play poker for 5 min. But something along a meet and greet where a whole bunch of us would go to Vegas as the same time. Go play poker go for drinks, dinner and just chill.
Chill? Bro we're going clubbing...
Had a great time playing with you guys. Fun experience:)
Great vid Andrew. I like the variety. Daily grind, road trips, live stream, friendly game, vloggers game... plus some personal stuff that u do. crikey, ur keepin it fresh man.
What a fun Vlog. With the lack of poker content on tv your vlogs are very entertaining. Keep up the great job. Also props to Brad Owen.
I have such an immense love for these vlogs! Keep doing what you're doing Andrew.
Props to the Mirage for being cool and helping make this happen! Look forward to Mirage more biz on future travels! Super idea and video Andrew! Brilliant! Thanks for your good work!
Another great vlog I always loved Mirage poker room great dealers and management keep up the good work mate.
Good on you and Brad doing a fan game. Pleeeease come do one in Tampa or even South Florida. I know some folks around here that would greatly enjoy splashing with you. Tampa Bay has some great microbreweries!
Really looked like a fun time. Very nice of Brad to be part of the fun. Another great vlog!.
You forgot something in the analysis at 10:45, we're splashing around, we're drinking some beers, and we are lucky as hell catching two pair w 6-2. Keep grinding Neeme
"Beverages that were had" sounds like a tee shirt idea. or 'Hangover was not awesome" LOL
best poker vlog video of them all, my man b-rad!!!
14:18 that's when it started to get messy ;) libations matter more than poker.
Another excellent vlog. Keep up the good work Andrew.
Best vlogger on RUclips hands down
Neeme you're awesome man
This looks like such a good time. Mix it up and leave a bit of the seriousness at the door. Not all of it, but a bit. I love that you did this. If only I was in Vegas instead of the East Coast of Canada. HA!
lmao the guy at 12:33 taking a photo of you forgets his flash is on
Good editing from a regular Joe with a sense of humor!
and
Just another fantastic interview on Billfold w/ introspect on the grind!
To mjddj45 he has the gift of being "camera friendly". You either have it or you don't and Neeme has it in spades. My brother works in the news biz and was an on air reporter and anchor. He worked at WRGB and used to work with Rachel Ray, who was, as many know, a nobody with no TV credentials. Rachel had the smarts to develop a friendship with WRGB's on air chef and she got on TV. The rest is history. Maybe the same for Neeme.
This is the best poker vlog on youtube!
Imagine going to Vegas to play some poker and have a good time, and run into countless poker 'vloggers' constantly busy with their phones. Nightmare.
J8!!! My favorite hand. Dan Michalski had a jersey made for me back when I helped do some work for his pokerati.com site and it had a big Jd8d on the back. :) My crew called the hand "auto win". The times I get blown out of the water with it is around the same way you did. JJ spikes a one outer when I hit 2 pair or trip 8s with it. Still liked seeing you play and having a bit of fun.
Great Vlog Andrew. I am a Very casual poker player and though I do learn pointers I am actually more entertained by your Vlogging style. Your Vlog has merit beyond the poker genre. You mentioned a livestream and obviously organized a successful meet-up. I am impressed with how you are tying in a complete social media strategy. Looking forward to more "Vlogging lessons."
When you moved over to the bar my first thought was "I wonder if the bar tab exceeds the win". Another excellent vlog.
Total for the group did, there were other folks buying rounds as well. It wasn't very pretty at the end...
wish i got to be in this kind of a session...Andrew - I enjoy your vlog and keep waiting for every video you come out with. thanks.
digging the felt color!
love from the UK. generally don't watch much RUclips but never missed one of your vlogs. ..
love your Blogs.... I'm so excited for my trip to Vegas in November.. Gonna be my 1st time..
Really fun video! I wish I could have been there. One of these days I'll hit up Vegas again and it'd be great to play some hands.
That's some full tilt in 2007 type of coolers right there...keep your head up neeme!
Great music choice in this vlog - really enjoyed it. Checking out the artist now on soundcloud. Keep up the good work Andrew!
Yeah he's got a pretty dope catalogue.
Andrew can you set up a schedule for these games as I'm from the UK and would love to come but need to make plans in advance, that would be favourable
Would like to work towards making this a more regular thing.
Vloggers game SPOILER : Neeme busts everybody, adopts a boxer from the rescue
Very decent chance I'll lose the most in that game.
I think Buster Douglas is available.
Please let Pokerkraut win a few hands. He already did a whole video about how he wants to short buy and play tight.
I was playing the Mirage back in the day of 1-2 limit. I was a broke college student. That was my gambling money for the day. Win at poker, give it back at the tables. Love the retro.
Even poker pros like to crack open a cold one with the boys 🍻🍻🍻
Splashed around and played 82o in a full orbit of straddles last night, when you're there to have fun its good to loosen up.
I think it was a great idea and cheers for doing something like that for your fans. Oh BTW Poker go announcer's gave you a plug during the one drop...:)
favorable start to my Saturday morning
Tshirt idea: "Wrapping Up a Session"
that was like a blow to the stomach when you said he rolled over pocket jacks
Love the music in this one. Like old school Vegas style.
Dam, I am at the Wynn poker room, watching this guy, and playing a poker tournament on my pad, all at the same time. Is it addiction or multitasking??
Thanks for all your hard work Andrew, I'm a poker playing truck driver and after 600 miles of driving I like to get in my sleeper birth and watch some Neeme
I'm learning a lot watching your vlog...apparantly I'm not the only one...lol...i was the 3rd view 15 minutes ago now it's well over a 1000...cheers bro we appreciate you.
nice to see live cards again !
Great Vlog as always Andrew, if you ever visit Sydney Australia give me a buzz!!!
Hi Andrew, you may not have been the first vlogger, but you are doing some nice things with it. Keep up the great work. I am watching with interest to see if all your ideas can get that sub number moving again.
Hella cool you did this Andrew. If you ever head out to the Bay Area you gotta do another one
I loved that meetup… and miss some of these “old school” vlogs!
hope you and Brad host more games in the future... I too am from your home state of Michigan (Three Rivers/Kalamazoo). big fan of the vlogs.
Hope so too.
Great idea of the players meet up and look forward to another one.
thanks for the vlog always entertaining hope u come to the east coast and visit foxwoods would love to play with u sometime
Really cool of The Mirage to do that. My guess is that most the big name casinos would have too big an ego to give up a couple tables/ dealers... btw how did JJ not throw a raise in!!! lol. Nice vlog!!
You and Andrew, Great VLOG's Keep 'em Coming !!!
Looked like you guys had a great time. Glad the mirage was so accommodating letting you film and all. Hope your Vlogger game goes as well as this. Also, if my memory serves me, isn't your patio the opening scene of your first vlog?
Yep same spot.
Game looked super fun!
Australia tour soon Andrew? 😂👍
Asap.
Include New Zealand!!
Andrew Neeme if you come to Sydney I've got your first beer at the star casino
16:42 - Sambuca. ugh. Bad memories.
I caught both of the live streams very entertaining. B-Rad seems like a good dude I enjoy his vlog also. The best part for yall is zero editing for those. Andrew might want to look into some "favorable" bibs and yes Jets pizza deep dish with the turbo crust is the jam!!!!!!!!!!
Lol. That stream got a little out of line but glad you caught the Jets reference.
It was all in good fun. Thank you for continuing to pump out such quality content for all of us that includes the live streams very entertaining! Sending some run good from Ga.
Also need your address or P.O for a package for mail on the couch. I've searched maybe overlooked it.
Thanks again Brent
Hey Andrew, cool intro! I'm looking forward to my first Vegas trip this summer. Would love to know your favourite restaurants on or near the strip ☺
Really like Javiers at Aria, Rose Rabbit Lie at Cosmopolitan. Off strip I like Cornish Pasty Co and Carson Kitchen (downtown), and Echo and Rig (in Summerlin).
Andrew Neeme thanks! Will be sure to check some of those out! Best of luck over the wsop!
Andrew Neeme you been to lotus of Siam? That's probably my favorite restaurant in the country!
Been there once, it's toward the top of a lot of people's lists.
Owens and Neeme.dream team. If you still bros next WSOP play in the tag team event.
Neeme loosing a $1,200 pot "Pretty funny situation there. He seems like a pretty great dude."
Lol it would've been much more annoying if it was vs some nit. This guy was not only playing the most hands but also drinking the most.
Great job! Your 6d2d call I always call a "3rd beer call". Fun to get lucky with a "3rd beer call"😁.....The J8 hand I noticed you didn't use the word "blocker" in that hand, such as "I have J8 so there's no way he could have Jack's Full on the turn because I block that hand"😂 File that under $#&t happens. Keep up the great work!
I envy your even temperament at the table. you don't rattle.
I mean I was quite surprised to have not won that hand.
I'm quite surprised he didn't raise you all in..
Another great vlog. Love the content.
Thanks Amanda.
Really enjoyed Vlog #63. Great that you created a fun casual poker night for some of your fans. Sounds like a pretty favo(u)rable evening. Cheers from Canada
🇨🇦
Guessing you had beverages Mr Neeme ;) good video though nice to see you playing with fans!
Sounds like a rather favorable night
Funny how I was playing at the mirage on vacation just a couple weeks back, also drinking blue moons haha Wish I would've met you Andrew !
wtf is that flat with jj on the river haha. Andrew's lucky to not have lost more
