After that diamond flush I was waiting for the classic Bradley twist "you turn over the 3rd nuts, your opponent takes a second and then shows that HE has the second nuts, you lost yet another pot to a wild card..."
I was literally about to comment the same thing. With the way things have been going for what feels like the last ten sessions now, I was pretty much expecting it.
I was about to say the same! He had that same voice he always does. In my head I’m like “stop it Brad! It only gonna make this 5 millionth cooler worse!” I was pleasantly surprised 😮💨
@@themi6sportsnetwork171 most of it was unexpected and non standard calls to his bluff attempts. Brad has always been a very aggressive poker player, and that is what sets him apart from most others.
Imagine having a life where every video you put out on RUclips needs 5 minutes of updates and notifications at the start 😂 Living your best life Brad. Love that. Thanks for the quality content! Ps. Booty Shake and Hits is my favourite compilation album 😮😂😂😂
Ground-hog-day watching Brad play poker. Kicks off session with confidence and excitement, losses big hands early and cheaply, plays catch-up for the rest of the episode.
You have balls of steel, Brad. I can not get over your resilience. Energizer bunny vibes. Keep pushing. You will swing out of this and when you do, you'll look back and this blip will be a bunch of learning experiences.
If anybody knows that dealer, you should tell them two things. 1. stop riding in your car with your elbow on the window. That vibration hurts the nerves and makes your hand numb. 2. Stretch the elbow tendon. The best stretch for this is where you make circles with your thumb and pointer and put them on your face like eyeglasses. But the rest of your fingers point down toward your toes. Elbow is up in the air. This will stretch that tendon and make your fingers have feeling again.
@@KittyCentral12 I don't think I claimedhis elbow is hurting. I am saying the way he keeps flexing his hand is a telltale sign that he has injured the nerve that runs through the elbow to the hand. If your hand is numb you can do the same exercise. If you want a study on it, go see your doctor.
Brad, I've been following your journey for years, and I can see you're in a bit of a rough patch right now. I’ve never seen anyone consistently come out a winner by playing like this in the long run. I think it's time to get back to basics, right? Stop trying to play every previous hand all over again-just focus on the one in front of you and play it in the best way possible. This means folding, even if you suspect your opponent might be trying to bluff you. Do the math. What's the hand range? Then make your decision-not based on avoiding a fold or chasing a big win to recover losses, but based on the long-term expected value of playing that hand a certain way. It’s not about the short-term win, it’s about the long-term result. Lately, it feels like you’ve gone off track. You’re gambling too often, hoping for things to turn around, remembering the few times it worked this year. But that’s the tactic of a desperate player-the kind we look for as they leak money slowly but surely. Honestly, it's been tough to watch. I used to really look forward to your videos, but lately, I dread them because I already know what's coming-a hard fight to get unstuck, and at best, breaking even by taking unnecessary risks. Or worse, taking a big five-figure hit, which honestly, the math says is inevitable with the way you’ve been playing. It’s brutal to watch at this point. Sure, you’re not as reckless as some like Rampage, but you’ve clearly lost your way. You’re trying too hard, instead of just accepting that the past is in the past. Stop thinking about the money you had and focus on playing the best you can with what you have right now. Everyone has a losing year-it’s part of the game, right? To me, the solution is simple: drop down a level or two, regain your confidence, and work on your game (which I’m sure you do regularly). Pick your spots more carefully when playing at higher stakes. This recent loss? It was on you, mate. Most situations had you mathematically behind when you lost. Solver analysis, experience-everything was telling you one thing, but you kept doing the other. That’s a clear sign of a type of tilt that might not feel like tilt but definitely is. It’s when every hand feels like the one you can justify staying in-that’s gambling, not playing poker with skill. That said, Brad, I know you’ll turn this around. You have great people around you, but I just can’t keep cheering you on when I know this pattern will keep happening unless you make some changes to regain your composure. Stop counting your money for a while and start counting like a card counter. +1 if you played your A-game, 0 if you played solid but not your best, and -1 if you feel like you had leaks. If your score stays positive, you're on the right track. But if it’s negative (and right now I’d say it’s quite high), you’ve got to play lower until that number tells you it’s time to move back up. /Cheers mate
I wanted to say something like this, but did not want to drill it like Brad was at the dentist. However a rethink, in whatever form that may have to take is on the cards. As a poker noob I can't suggest anything on gameplay however Brad is a good math analyst but not adept in sociology (andrew neeme - 'staying in/jumping out of flow' - using table dynamics to visualise what each player might do) and Brad allowing himself to get a little drunk whilst heavily stuck, not considering the vlog must necessarily paint something of a target on his back. Also Brad is not psychologically adept like Mario, using his antenna accurately/spookily. No idea where to go to move forward well; I do not joke when I say it is possible to make a deal with the enemy of one's soul. That is not an option. Going back to accounting having lost more than half of one's bankroll in one session absolutely is. I suggest bringing chess/ bridge and a neat tidy Omaha game into the fold. Wont waste comment time as to why. Never pray for good cards, pray to play your best game. We love you Brad!
Wow!!! I'm glad I read this before I offended my two cents. Very well said, right on point. I'm sure it will feel a little harsh, but I really believe this comment is accurate. Doyle said that " money saved is money earned ". I hope that you are able to see this as a positive, we your fans would love to see you and your family do well .

Hey I agree and also been wanting to say something like this. My friend who also watches said this exact same thing as well. We’re rooting for you nonetheless!
One thing I've always loved about your channel. The transparency and humility. Man, how I'd love to win one of those golden passports!🎉 Great vlog as always Brad.

Just got around to watching this one. Always love hearing you talk about your Dad and family. I try and live my life in a way that my kids will be able to look back in a similar fashion some day. See you at the Freeroll I managed to get a passport.
Agree. Opponent checks to the river then opponent finally bets the river. Brad does not like his hand but somehow in Brad’s wildest dreams he thinks the opponent may be bluffing. Opponent bets a river knowing that most likely someone will call then how the hell can that someone believe opponent is bluffing enough times to make it worth calling him.????
@@Mordecai154 , Of course check raise river can be a bluff. How often though??🤷🏻. This isn’t about check raise; It’s about opponent checks flop then calls your bet. Opponent checks turn then calls your bet. River card hits the board, but now, opponent does NOT check! Instead, opponent bets the river ahead of you. Opponent knows you’re trying to show strength,and you don’t even like your hand, but you call your opponent anyway. Allow me to assure you that in this scenario and similar scenarios that your opponent is NOT bluffing!!
@@BradOwenPoker LOL keep up the awesome vids. Keeping it real and all can't always be easy. That said, those (semi)coolers are unreal. Boggles the mind and boils the blood.
Quick question - What made you go for a Bet on the A6 vs AQ.. standard move to check back … Only going to get called by better (you admit you should have checked back ?)
Man I just want to say I appreciate you posting, I have been on a pretty big "to me down swing" I was up 15,000 for the year and dropped to at a loss of 2,000 to now being up 1,000 and watching you handle it has been amazing. Getting beats that just don't make sense. Worst one was AQs Flop comes AQQ and we are all in after the turn K we flip them over and He has AK and what comes on the river the case K. 13k pot.
I miss Sonoma County ❤ Also, SR Taqueria wemt downhill, you need to check out Molacajetes Taqueria. Best Mexican food in the North Bay. There are 3 locations in Santa Rosa, btw
Hey Brad. I have said it many times but i will say it again. thank you for posting losing sessions. That is the real world of a poker player. I will always watch sir. thank you again. Mad respect.
I miss my dad everyday ! We have to keep their spirits alive ! Maybe find something in all his things you can take with you to the poker table… I have a cube top to my dads cologne, reminds me of him and smells like him
Hi, Brad. I always enjoy watching your channel. I have a question regarding the wpt. Gold, giveaway, how do you know if you get chosen? How do you get notified
Thank you for this..this shows that everyone has these kind of sessions. Its imperative, also, you cant count on anyone to fold now days. Even when theyre SUPPOSED to, they DONT.
I’m only 2 1/2 minutes into your video and I have to stop and tell you something that I’ve already told you before, but it needs to be repeated. The feeling you have an express about your father is identical to the feeling that I have for my dad who is 92. I have six kids and every single one of them seems to feel the same way about me that you and I feel about our dads and I can tell you from first hand experience that there is no greater honor that you can give your father than what you have expressed to all of your followers on your RUclips channel and I applaud you for it because I (and many other of your followers) feel exactly the same way.
Hey Brad! I’ve been watching your videos for years and love being able to watch your poker journey. Just saw that you watched Absinthe and said it’s one of your favourite shows. I perform in it and wanted to tell you if you ever want to come down and see the show again, it would be an honour to put you on the guest list! Keep up the amazing work ✌🏼
Hey Brad or others referencing hand around 23:00 with AJ, when you overbet river you’re literally only representing high flush or maybe set of kings right? You would never bet this large with just AK or KQ. So, then what hands of villain are targeting to fold? 2 pair at best? Just trying to understand theory more
Audio question: always enjoy the subtle backround music, sounds like there’s another backround audio track that is “human chatter”. Is that a layer? I’m sure the video mics are off because we would hear chips shuffling. Plus you wouldn’t want room mics because of copyrighted music chance.
Brad, how should I approach the 5MM WPT freeroll (yeah, I have won a seat). I think there are a few competing issues: a) no idea what the field strength will be b) it’s a freeroll, do I just nit it up to get ITM c) 2MM+ of mystery bounties makes it feel like you’d want to also build a stack and then lastly with the c) flat payouts but 500/2k get paid, I’m kind of confused as to what is the best approach
Brad this felt like a very degen style of session. I hate seeing you take beats like this but I appreciate and respect you for sharing all of your hands win and lose
Great vlog Brad! Everyone goes thru good/bad swings..." THAT'S POKER!" It feels better when it swings your way tho, good luck buddy, I'm sure your good swing is on the horizon!! Thank you for sharing all of your moments!!!
Love flying into Santa Rosa, a hidden gem of an airport. I played Graton for the first time this year. Chopped a tournament so good experience. Real nice casino/poker room.
Brad, let me ask you a question, If everybody used GTO is it still optimal? You are hyper-focused on the math of the game and Nick Petrangelo's con job to try and box players into a specific way of playing. Five bet Ace Jack suited preflop??? In what world??? The game is not a math equation. It's a language. Focus more on your reads and not what the "book" says to do.
Keep Plugging Brad ,I feel your pain ,I know you can get over these mountains....take some zen moments ,look at the big picture hope to see you out there one of these years although you have a lot more than myself.🤣
Minnesota doesn't have all that much but Charles Shultz of Peanuts fame is one of our local celebrities that you inherited later in life! :) I'd day he made the right choice. ;)
Brad - on sessions where NOTHING is going your way, how do you not pick up and fight another day? Do you feel the vlog keeps you playing longer? Do you think of switching seats and / or tables when you can makes a difference? My stomach just drops seeing this session. Thank you.
Great lessons about bankroll management here! It's been fun watching the progression...3 short years ago you we're playing 1/2 and 2/5, winning and losing a couple hundred/thousand, no way you'd have ever lost $24k in 1 secession. If you can't afford to lose it, don't bring it to the table! Congrats on all your success Brad!
Genuine question: Does anyone think it would add to these videos if there was a little graphic in the corner telling how much Brad is up or stuck at the beginning of that particular hand? I selfishly kinda want it because I don't watch these videos all at once and forget where he's at bank roll wise, but I do think it could be fun to actively watch a negative number get smaller and smaller until it finally flips to green when he climbs out of a hole. Just a thought
You have to admire Brad's transparency with respect to variance. Yes, it may seem that he is digging a hole in some of these sessions, but he is also aware of the dynamics at the table and the opportunities for exploits. Sometimes those exploits don't pan out as expected, and the hole gets deeper. Having a stop gap helps, of course, but that is a personal decision, and a policy I've broken on many occasions because I see so much "juice" at the table.
After that diamond flush I was waiting for the classic Bradley twist "you turn over the 3rd nuts, your opponent takes a second and then shows that HE has the second nuts, you lost yet another pot to a wild card..."

One of the best intros you’ve done Brad.
Good to stay centered on family, community, and legacy.
If anybody knows that dealer, you should tell them two things.
1. stop riding in your car with your elbow on the window. That vibration hurts the nerves and makes your hand numb.

I'm not seeing a cash game app legal in the US? Is that for PC and not mobile?
When are you coming to Jacksonville I would love some advice
Top line today: "Kinda rude cos I did have a coupon" LOL!!! Was really awesome to meet you in person Brad! You are awesome!
How often does this game run? daily? only on weekends?
Audio question: always enjoy the subtle backround music, sounds like there’s another backround audio track that is “human chatter”. Is that a layer? I’m sure the video mics are off because we would hear chips shuffling. Plus you wouldn’t want room mics because of copyrighted music chance.
I wonder if we played in the same games and tournaments when I was an occasional player at Graton back in the 2015-2017 timeframe.
Brad, how should I approach the 5MM WPT freeroll (yeah, I have won a seat). I think there are a few competing issues: a) no idea what the field strength will be b) it’s a freeroll, do I just nit it up to get ITM c) 2MM+ of mystery bounties makes it feel like you’d want to also build a stack and then lastly with the c) flat payouts but 500/2k get paid, I’m kind of confused as to what is the best approach
Brad this felt like a very degen style of session. I hate seeing you take beats like this but I appreciate and respect you for sharing all of your hands win and lose
Love to see Czech Raise Charles, hope he is doing great!
That Bee Gee’s disc is great!
Hi Brad. Tough session. The "Bradly Wave' is still there in the end. GL in Florida.
Great vlog Brad! Everyone goes thru good/bad swings..." THAT'S POKER!" It feels better when it swings your way tho, good luck buddy, I'm sure your good swing is on the horizon!! Thank you for sharing all of your moments!!!
What app do u use to track earnings I need it bad
05:33 eight outs, right?
And is that really a semi-bluff?
Yes. 8.
Is WPT global available in all US states?
Love flying into Santa Rosa, a hidden gem of an airport. I played Graton for the first time this year. Chopped a tournament so good experience. Real nice casino/poker room.
That @CzechRaiseCharles cameo was a nice treat. I'm still a sub!
What is the dealers deal in the first hand? Strange motion.
Brad, let me ask you a question, If everybody used GTO is it still optimal? You are hyper-focused on the math of the game and Nick Petrangelo's con job to try and box players into a specific way of playing. Five bet Ace Jack suited preflop??? In what world??? The game is not a math equation. It's a language. Focus more on your reads and not what the "book" says to do.
i... don't think you know what gto is

Where is the winners for golden pass ? I was thinking we are due for another announcement.
What app do you use to track your sessions?
Thanks Brad. How many times did I call when I had a strong feeling that I was beat that’s definitely a leak in my game.
Keep Plugging Brad ,I feel your pain ,I know you can get over these mountains....take some zen moments ,look at the big picture hope to see you out there one of these years although you have a lot more than myself.🤣
Hey, I'm on that list of Golden Passport winners! Thanks, Brad!
Me too!
@@mehas1313 Good luck!

Your Dad had great taste in music !
Minnesota doesn't have all that much but Charles Shultz of Peanuts fame is one of our local celebrities that you inherited later in life! :)
I'd day he made the right choice. ;)
Whoa ... a Czech-Raise Charles sighting!
Brad - on sessions where NOTHING is going your way, how do you not pick up and fight another day? Do you feel the vlog keeps you playing longer?
Do you think of switching seats and / or tables when you can makes a difference?
My stomach just drops seeing this session.
Thank you.
Great lessons about bankroll management here! It's been fun watching the progression...3 short years ago you we're playing 1/2 and 2/5, winning and losing a couple hundred/thousand, no way you'd have ever lost $24k in 1 secession. If you can't afford to lose it, don't bring it to the table! Congrats on all your success Brad!
Genuine question: Does anyone think it would add to these videos if there was a little graphic in the corner telling how much Brad is up or stuck at the beginning of that particular hand? I selfishly kinda want it because I don't watch these videos all at once and forget where he's at bank roll wise, but I do think it could be fun to actively watch a negative number get smaller and smaller until it finally flips to green when he climbs out of a hole. Just a thought
OUCH! The force is still with you.
Using the knowledge I’ve picked up watching and listening to Brads explanations has lead me to three straight big wins my last 3 games!
jeez brad, your run bads are something else
Awesome playing with you at the MUG today in Montreal! -Greg
Showing love from Toronto! Been watching your vlogs since day 1!
You have to admire Brad's transparency with respect to variance. Yes, it may seem that he is digging a hole in some of these sessions, but he is also aware of the dynamics at the table and the opportunities for exploits. Sometimes those exploits don't pan out as expected, and the hole gets deeper. Having a stop gap helps, of course, but that is a personal decision, and a policy I've broken on many occasions because I see so much "juice" at the table.
How do you have 10 outs against QQ on JT72? 3 kings + 3 aces + 2 queens = 8 outs.
The way brad narrated 24:10 I totally thought UTG would show Qx diamonds 😂
Can you verify I am registered? I did sign up but don't didnt get any confirmation or anything it was a little weird at the end
