He gave every month's results except September and October, which he said were winning months, but I assume were small wins since he didnt list them like he did the others. His total without September and October was $137k, which includes losing $17k in December, so he was up over $150k going into the last month of the year. Add a few thousand more for September and October and Im guessing he made just over $140k.
@@Clockmngtmnt I mean idc if he won or lost, just wondering why he said he wasn’t going to get into the numbers and then immediately release his month to month income lmao
Transparency is always a good thing. Especially if you want people to watch and inspire other people to play. Every other vlogger shows their results for obvious reasons.
yes. it is part of the journey. I am not going to track the results for him. Also, he is not vlogging every session. that means there are parts of the year that are missed. Part of putting your poker life on RUclips for public consumption is to recognize you are creating interest in that poker life. The final results are a big part of that interest.@@sylvainguinepain5624
Lex, Happy New Year. Thanks for making the content. I think it's very valuable. There is absolutely no reason why you should be precise about your results. I couldn't agree more that it's basically just an ego trip that's totally unnecessary. Hope you have a great 2024. I am going to :)
Nice intro Lex, no words, just beautiful scenery and Mother Nature. Our lives are so busy, sometimes we forget how blessed we are. There’s something therapeutic about going hiking or just being outside in nature away from the concrete jungle. Best of luck in 2024!
Appreciate the content Lex! As an intermittent low stakes player, I’ve use content provided by you and others on RUclips such as Brad Owen, Doug McCusker, Rampage, and the Hustler Casino Live and The Lodge streams to really utilize hand ranges in many spots allowing me to open up my game and increase aggressiveness when needed. I’ve learned a ton and look forward to more content! Thank You!
Congrats on a successful year brother. You are still my fave for being so open and playing style. I always enjoy the uploads and learn a lot each time. Vegas looks awesome, bummer you didn't go so well this time. Wishing you the best of luck and run good this year. Thanks for all of your hard work.
@@Stockholm_Syndromein the US it's taxed at twice the rate of normal income since it's considered self employment for tax purposes (meaning you have to cover the employer and employee contributions). Of course this is before write offs but still it's insane
@@FishstixPokeroh ouch! Happily, my government has a tax deal with the US so if I ever visit, I will be able to recover the tax monies paid. Eventually.
I play a lot of low stakes poker $1-2 NL and would love to read your book. Can't wait till you have that out. Thanks for sharing your end of year rough estimate. I always love the Rampage and Owen's end of year how they did vlogs. Brad shows his Poker Tracker data for the year which I love ! I understand why you could feel uneasy about sharing that though. Really happy you had a great year. You put in the hard work and earned it. Thanks again for the vlogs.
pretty disappointed in this. one i got click baited into watching for the year results. posting your results for me would be to see how much a full time poker player can make playing the midstakes. obviously its going to be different every year but a general idea would be nice.
Jack the Savior. Please do some vlogs about that competion. I really enjoy the offtopic once in a while. Its good to see u fuxkin beasting the gym while being good at poker. Happy new year
Lex, I’m a big fan of your videos however I feel this Clickbait headline to lure us in and then not disclosing your winnings was really poor taste. I hate to see you stoop to that.
Man I hated Wynn too , nice room but ran bad , didn’t like the fisher price looking chips. Just all of it. But absolutely love Bellagio as well. Maybe we all love where we do the best 🤷🏻♂️. Thanks for another year of good vids Lex. Happy new year !
HNY Lex ! I’ve watched you since your early days and think you’re a genuine person and hope you stay true to your roots and beliefs. I love watching your vlogs and wish you even greater success in 2024 😊👍
Thx for the scenic intro.. nice job winning some high stakes game in the year of 2023.. will be watching the hustler live and good luck in the year of 2024!! ✌️ peace
LEx, really like the vlog. You are in the top 5 vloggers, IMO. I disagree with your reasoning on not giving a $ amount for your year results, though. Much of your audience is invested in your journey and watch your work throughout the year,. You should inform us of your final results to give closure on the year, and help us be more invested n that journey. It is not bragging to say your results, when you are a vlogger. It is allowing your audience more insight into what you did through out the year.
😂🎉 Happy New Year 🎊 2024! Finally 2023 IS OVER and The BEST IS YET TO COME! My Guess Lex for your 2023 Winnings is 200K + or -! HOPEFULLY A BIG+! Keep it Rollin Lex O Poker! Paul in Pompano Beach 🏖️ FLORIDA 🌊 USA!
Hey Lex. Been watching since the beginning and haven’t missed a vlog and love your stuff. Saw the car purchase, very nice. How did I miss the motorcycle buy?
No one is bragging about how much they made! Bro stop being a hater, If you choose not to reveal your 2023 poker year that’s ok but don’t be a hater and assume why others do choose to reveal theirs!!
Awesome year! Please VLOG your CrossFit competition I’m sure it will have several views and a good change of pace. Best of luck to you in 2024 and keep up with the poker vlogs.
At the end of 2021 I started playing poker again after a long time off. Back in the day when I used to grind it all the time, there was no no-limit, but now that's the main game, so I had to get up to speed. I started watching RUclips poker videos, and Lex's vlog was the first one I started watching. This led me to Brad's and Wolfgang's and Mariano's. Learning how real no-limit winners think about hands helped me immensely, that and a CLP subscription have made me a winning grinder at 1-3 for about 4,000 hours in the last 2 years. The pocket jacks hand at 12:15 is the perfect example of how to analyze what your opponent has based on how they play their hands, and that is what winning play is all about - knowing your opponents and going with your analysis. Congrats to you and your success Lex, you deserve it and have inspired me to be successful as well.
Great vlog fam... way to keep "GRINDING" *ps, you're a f/n BEAST in the gym!!! Thanx for sharing a little part of your life with us!!! Stay the course 👏 👌 💪
Lol! I wouldn’t give my results either! I was thinking to myself why would Brad, Rampage, Mariano give their results? IRS is watching! You keep it to your self! It’s know one’s business! Thank you for the vids! I wish you all the best in 2024!
Lex congrats. Great videos. Can you tell us about taxes as a pro player? and btw Lex what the hell is other player doing after the hand is over? with JJs.
Lex I’m a fan ! But you pride yourself here on transparency! And being a “pro” poker player of course it’s nobody’s business how much you make but you should be telling your audience how much you made .how many hours played , tournaments,buy ins etc!! I think that’s a fair argument and appropriate here and for this Channel man..good luck out there
The amount matters because you inspire people so that the community keeps growing second of all the amazing matters because poker it’s a profession and life is based on results
Probably didn't make a difference considering what your opponent had left behind but did the dealer make a mistake at 15:20? Looks like he put your 1350 in the pot and 1350+500 of your opponent.
Lex! sorry about the tough Losses but, that is awesome you got to play in the big tournament, definitely bucket list goal. I have a suggestion to improve your video a bit. you have great content and i have been watching for years! but, one thing that drives me crazy. lol. is you show all your hands in great detail and discussion. but, when you have a big hand that is very exciting. you stop showing card values on screen and just show the action on the table. the problem is. i can't see what any of the cards are. so, i have no idea whats going on . did you win? did you lose? its always this big build up only to have a sort of let down because sometimes you honestly don't even know if you won the hand or not. its a little frustrating. lol. so, please, when you have a big hand and you show the action. please also show the card values so we can see whats happening. it would be a great improvement for me. Thanks!! all the best! RunGOOD
Real players that do this for a living know the total hours played and the hourly rate is actually helpful. Anything else is just ammunition for hater chatter. If you made 100k you either suck and should have made more or you suck and you’re lying. Either way it takes a lot for someone to put your life on display for anyone to criticize from behind a screen. From the beginning (knowing Lex personally) he has always been straight and deserves respect for all he has accomplished and all that he will. GL friend
One thing i have noticed in several videos now is that lex will shove with relatively weak holdings but he's not doing it as a bluff and he's only ever gonna get called by hands that are beating him in those situations. It's bizarre. Am I missing something or is this a leak?
when he checked the flop, then check raised the turn he is screaming 99. He was giving you the rope necessary for you to stack yourself. I could see this as plain as day, you didn’t even need the nut flush draw to find yourself jamming the turn because you cannot comprehend checking a flopped set back. PrOfeSsiONaL PoKEr PLAyeR!
Lex: “My 2023 income is a secret”
Also Lex: proceeds to break down his month by month poker income
It isn’t hard to do the math in your head :)
He gave every month's results except September and October, which he said were winning months, but I assume were small wins since he didnt list them like he did the others. His total without September and October was $137k, which includes losing $17k in December, so he was up over $150k going into the last month of the year.

Transparency is always a good thing. Especially if you want people to watch and inspire other people to play. Every other vlogger shows their results for obvious reasons.
If you watch the vlog regularly, you know how much he's made. Do you need to know the exact dollar amount?

Two words why you didn’t reveal your 2023 poker income - tax evasion! 😂
You pay taxes on gambling income? Weird.
@@Stockholm_Syndromeyes. If you actually win up to a certain amount you are actually required to note the money you won from gambling. It’s weird haha
@@ApShagster -I see. How high is that tax? Here gambling and poker income is tax free. Both live and online.

Kudos man, I'd thought you'd be bust by now
Bro, one of the reasons we watch is to see your results. Come on, it’s just part of following your progress.
Great year Lex, happy for you man 👍
I am not a fan of the clickbait title
How you figure your behind AK hearts on board of 6-3-6 when you have Jacks??
Lex do you sell action for the higher stakes games?

100%. It felt like a bait and switch for you to not reveal it though I’m sure that wasn’t your intention.
"You WILL NEVER guess how much I made playing poker".
So I watch the whole video and then he says "Not gonna tell ya either".
WHAt ?
Happy New Year, Lex!!!!
Clickbait.
Of course the number matters. Weird flex.
Great content creators get engagement for doing great things, not by tricking their audience into engaging.
Are you selling any action for the Hustler game? If so, post a link & I’d be happy to buy a little. GL!

I can’t stand people who hold onto the cards after the hand is over as if the result is going to magically change. 🤦♂️
IRS has entered the chat
Was the hand at 14:55 NOT a muck??? I’m Confused lol
Great video. Good luck in 2024.
Rampage lost 400k in 2023. I guess he wanted everyone to watch til the end without telling us.

maybe they pay taxes like decent people
My guess is youd rather people just not start guessing how much of your lifestyle youtube actually provides. Just a guess have no clue about it
clickbait at it's finest
Could you possibly talk about your RUclips income, or how it works?
Lex congrats. Great videos. Can you tell us about taxes as a pro player? and btw Lex what the hell is other player doing after the hand is over? with JJs.

Looking forward to watching you on HCL.
You probably realize this, but the quality of your play this year has definitely been higher. Kudos on your successful year!
Looking forward to seeing you on HCL, lets GO!
clickbait title.
I like the play with AJhh, cant call oop and have a hand that has so much equity. If he’s folding any better hands in that spot its printing
Run well and play well. That's the sauce for success.
You can play well bit still do poorly
You can play poorly but still run well and win.
Well done Lex and all the best in 2024!

Thumbs down and dislike for the click bait. Unexpected from you Lex
We in same situation at 7 min shoved flop…took down the reraise. Tuff spot…he had 9s and folded.
The AJ Vs 99 hand seemed so obvious to me when he checked back flop so fast. But then again I’m a nit
THAT AJ❤ WAS WELL PLAYED ON THE TURN..ALOT OF RIVERS HE WONT LIKE
when he checked the flop, then check raised the turn he is screaming 99. He was giving you the rope necessary for you to stack yourself. I could see this as plain as day, you didn’t even need the nut flush draw to find yourself jamming the turn because you cannot comprehend checking a flopped set back. PrOfeSsiONaL PoKEr PLAyeR!
Lex how about organizing a 2024 Florida meetup game? Looking for an excuse to escape the northeast winters.
If you break even in poker, you are ahead of the curve.
