      Very nice to see you in your own element there in Florida again. .. I'm a big fan of the 2 sayings" If it ain't broke don't fix it!" And also " Dance with the girl that Brung ya!" I know you said about going back to Texas and Vegas but if you're doing good on the home front and have a place to live right near where you play... Why not stay?! Keep up the good work..

      I found your channel because it was suggested. Even in the first video I saw, the hand analysis was really good... basically the opposite of watching a Rampage video. It's tough for most poker vloggers who live in the shadow of Brad and Andrew. You truly do a great job and it's fun watching you play. Keep it coming man!

    To answer your question, I play PLO cash for a living. It's not about ego
    If I can make more per hour in a smaller stakes game than playing higher stakes against tougher opponents, I'll play the smaller game everytime
    I don't have to prove anything to anyone, but I do have three cats to feed and they like to eat!

    Being some one who played for a living for 5 years and now I play about twice a month…
    If you’re a “professional” player then it’s always whatever your bankroll is.
    As a recreational player, for me at least, it’s whatever table is the most fun/talkative.
    In MD (Maryland Live) the 2/5 is usually the most entertaining. 5/10 is usually real boring and 1/3 there’s a lot of try hards…gotta love the 1/3 poker pros lol
    I play poker now for fun. Im still competitive af when I play and play the same way I did as when I played professionally, but I’m not coming to a casino to pop in headphones for 6 hours and not talk.
    When a higher game opens up I’ll usually put my name down, but will get up and go back down if the table is all sunglasses and headphones.
    Basically if I see a table with more than 3 beers in the cup holders that’s the table I want to play at..don’t care what the stakes are as long as it’s no limit.

    I enjoy watching you play either high stakes or lower stakes to be honest. I think one thing about you vs others is you are transparent and humble and you don’t let the highs get you cocky and more than that you don’t let the lows get you down and in a ditch. Keep making videos that you want to make, I think what I care about as a viewer is watching you play what you enjoy playing.

    I appreciate the acknowledgment of your fanbase, despite not knowing us personally. I've been watching those guys (Neeme, Owen, Mariano, Rampage, etc.) for years and I think that, compared to them, you have unique style. You consistently ask questiosns to your viewers, and you respond in kind. You're also very humble about your success as a player. You've obviously watched and learned from those guys too, but you have a different flavor you bring to the table. Keep it up and you'll be at that level within the year. Big fan and I've learned a lot from watching your channel.

    To answer your question at 8:45, I totally agree that you should look to challenge yourself with tougher games if you can afford it with your bankroll. Personally I am planning on sticking to 1/3 and occasionally playing 2/5.

  • @keithb4077
    @keithb4077 2 года назад +1

    8:45 Lex, I would guess that a balance of both makes sense; using higher levels to sharpen you, but also lower limits to both reduce variance (esp since this is your living) and to experiment with advanced concepts.

  • @mikerage1011
    @mikerage1011 2 года назад

    Yo lex. Best thing to do is keep moving up and testing yourself as well as your session win rate as well as your profit and loss win rate then when you move up in stakes if you see a significant drop in your stats move back down and then get better and try to live up again. Basically find your sweet spot as far as what limits your playing and stay in your comfort zone
    So if your playing 2-5 winning let’s say 75% of sessions with a 300 dollar session average for profit. Abd then move to 5-10 where your stats are. 60% with a 230 session average. I would drop back down. Just play where the stats make sense. But Definetly test yourself every so often. This is what I have done over my career and it’s served me well.

    Lex, I'm a tampa hard rock player that typically plays after 8 pm any night I can. The lower the stakes the more trash the ability and you have many opportunities to have profitable sessions knowing the field your up against. The reg grinder players who play for a living are some of the toughest players ever who typically play higher stakes. All in all, choose your games that you believe will give you the best edge if your goal is to be profitable long term..
    On the flip side, you could have beast mode confidence and play those high stakes games and get lucky to win some massive pots! A bit of yin to the yang I suppose.

      @@IconicGamers Yep you are right. In pokervlogs there is quite often a clickbait like "huge pot and aces." But usually there also has to be something intresting in hands he is playing. This is more of entertaining than poker education cos there is very few hands in one vlog. And he previously also said that he do not try to teach. Also he can not reveal all the secrets cos there are faces that come to casino often. He can not tell in vlog that someone is total fish or speak about poker tells cos those other players might also watch this vlog.
      I watch this vlog because Lex is very humble, genuine nice dude. This content is better than Rampage or Owen in my opinion. If you want to learn, play online poker cos there you can play hundreds of hands in an hour and stakes are minimal so your maximal lost is also small.

    Ever hear of the Peter Principle? It states, "In a hierarchy, every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence." I feel the same is true as stakes get higher in Poker. Skills that are profitable at one level may not be profitable at the next. Many players rise to their level of incompetence and stay there until they are broke.

    I started going to a rock quarry in 2018. I asked for permission to hand out my business cards. I was given a trial period and I go 2-3 times a week and pass out pop tarts , peanut butter and cheese crackers , water and granola bars with my business cards. I buy the office workers Christmas gifts and somehow my cards got passed around so much I had to advertise for box trucks as well. I quit working for someone else and started my own business because of the success I was having. Market yourself when you are in any public setting is the best advice I can give on reaching more viewers and subscribers. I hope you get above the goal you have for your channel because I look forward to the uploads !

    You definitely run hot in Florida compared with Texas. I’d keep my ass rt there playing those same stakes and maybe make a stab in a bigger game once a month or so. Your post flop game is so strong and your finally past that stage of being a little timid about calling big bets or making big bets on the river. Your game has gotten tremendously better over the last several months. Congratulations Lex!

    Love smaller games with weaker players but we have the stones to step into the blue room with much more qualified, seasoned players. Depends on availability in Texas. Texas players LOVE to see that flop!
