The odds of set over set at a full-ring table is roughly 1 in every 1,200 hands. But to have it happen twice in 105 hands, and be on the losing end both times...? 🤢 What rare thing has happened to you while playing?
Walked into a new room here in Houston for the first time.. first thing i see unfolding at the only table running is AA vs QQ vs JJ… and the flop comes Q A J 🥴🥴 they ran it flop twice twice and aces held
I actually got set over set 2x in a recent session just like this. Managed to crawl back to about breakeven, but yes those days are frustrating. Craziest hand that sticks out to me was KK(me) vs KK vs AA all 3 all in about 500 each. Was already running bad before that, but getting it in with the 2nd best hand in poker, and drawing nearly dead preflop, made me stand up and end my session for the night haha.
Those days happen ... your attitude is what gets your through and you have a great one ... I felt your pain and appreciate you once again sharing the ups and the downs ... I connect with you and your sessions because they are real ... keep doing what you do! Thanks, G.
Thanks, G! I appreciate your words of encouragement. I don't think I'd have as easy a time taking the losses in stride without trying to practice good bankroll management and/or having a safety net.
What a bummer session, but you are maintaining a great attitude! Just a couple of cooler run outs, but we all have had it happen to us, or witnessed it while at the table. Your game is strong, and play analysis is very spot on, just too bad on the last hand you felt like you had to shove, even if you had just called, the money was going in on the flop. I'm sure you will rebound on the next session.
Hey Mike, thanks buddy. I appreciate it! Like you said, the last hand was bound to be a cooler no matter how it played out, no doubt. It happens though. We're in it for the long term!
Hey, I watched many of your videos and like how you share many of your thought processes. There are a lot of things I cannot find in the textbook. Keep going!
Very proud of you for handling this session in the manner you did. I can’t imagine the level of tilt you went through in the moment with that 6/8 call. I mean pre flop AND post flop moves were absolutely horrible! The suck out was so undeserving. That was just one of those rare occasions were bad plays get rewarded. He, obviously, had a bad read on the strength of your hand and made a move that, IMO, made no sense. The pot was huge and to fold ANYTHING in that spot would have been bad. But you handled it with class. Keep up the good work.
Hey, thanks Karma! Yeah, it was a pretty unfortunate run of events for me, and that hand was pretty tilting. I try to keep it friendly at the tables always, since I've had my share of beats I've given players too. It always goes both ways! Appreciate you watching and the kind words.
@@HuggiePoker No, sir, I thank YOU for the awesome content! And you’re right, it does go both ways. I almost forgot about that lol. But, of course, I’m always rooting for the vlogger. Besides, my mind set is “they’re there to take my money, I’m there to take theirs”. It’s a dog eat dog world. Good luck and good skills at the tables!
Hey, I made the vlog! I shall henceforth be known as "Vlog Fan", lol. Really great playing with you, I was lucky you hit your 4 on the river. You played really well, just a rough session.
Hey, thanks Mance! Your winning that hand was well deserved, pretty unlucky runout for me there though, not gonna lie! If we were deeper stacked, I could have found the fold, but for $100 more in a $400 pot, I couldn't get away lol. Hope to see you again soon!
I was to your direct left this session and I think I made a comment like "Well, at least this will be good content." Rough session, but you should be able to turn it around...especially in that game!
Hey Cory, I remember playing with you that night (and before), and I remember your comment for sure. I both laughed and cried inside when you made it. 😂 The next few episodes will definitely more than make up for this loss, but it definitely stung that day! Good playing with you! Good luck at the tables, and hope to see you again...just not on my left! 😉
Good fold AJ pre. It looked sus when villain bets river after cold calling a raise pre. When you say something out loud, that's you telling yourself you're right. I just call the $50. Nice bink with the river King for $1,268. The 68hh hand was unfortunate. The last hand just played itself. I don't think you played any hand wrong except calling pre with Q5cc lol. It just wasn't your night. If you play solid, which you did, it's only 1 session. Keep grinding my man. You'll hit big soon, I feel it!!!!! See you next time. Thanks 👊
Hey Ian, thanks for watching and sharing your feedback! I think my Q5 hand was the worst of the session for sure, but it's not keeping me up at night or anything. 😄 Don't wanna spoil it, but the next episode is gonna be a huge one!
68, ughhhhhh! The others you can live with/expect to happen. But getting it in on the flop looking that good just makes you want to curse a dude out for playing so bad AND being that lucky haha.
Haha, dirty is a great word to describe that hand. But yeah, things have gone well since this session. I've got some more satisfying episodes coming up now that this one's out of the way!
This is well made and engaging, it will be interesting to watch your poker journey. You have a new subscriber... p.s. quit overplaying your big pairs. ;-)
Thanks for the sub! I promise I play my big pairs situationally, this one I happened to go with. If you check out episode 33, I actually make a big lay-down with JJ pre-flop, for example. See you on the next one!
@@HuggiePoker Right on, it's hard for me to tell just seeing a couple of your hands so take my nonsense with a grain of salt. I did watch a couple other episodes because you have a nice vlog. It just struck me as a potential leak, but I could be wrong.
@@sanssatori I appreciate the criticisms, it's important for analyzing and growing as a player! I definitely appreciate you sharing your perspective. I certainly have leaks in my game, and I'm constantly trying to improve. Thanks!
Yeah, that was a gross hand. He really wanted me to have all his money, too! This hand was a few weeks ago now, and I'm over it since I've had some good sessions since then thankfully. 🙂 Thanks, Doug!
Pocket Js are a fold against a 4bet at 1/3. Players give way less attention to others image at those stakes. I am guessing a bit of a tilt shove by you? Which is understandable considering how the session was going.
The $1/3 games in Texas play closer to $2/5 or $5/10 in other places. I think on average the $1/3 players here are paying more attention than elsewhere, where $1/3 might play more like $1/2. Regardless, maybe it should be a fold. Even if I called to see a flop though, it still would have been a cooler with all the money going in.
At $1-$2 you can NEVER fold when you river that boat. Yes, you will lose sometimes, but a lot of times your opponent is just an idiot. You probably can't even fold at $5-$10 if you're not too deep. You're still just too likely to run into an idiot.
Yeah, I'm inclined to agree at these smaller stakes. I think part of my thought process for this hand specifically was because I had been talking with the player for 30 minutes, and I could tell he was competent. But you're right that the are a lot of hands that will get overplayed in that spot, and folding a boat there would be too exploitable.
Not sure if there is a specific hand you're talking about, but if you're referring to the 44 hand at the beginning, it was just to show the cooler. Basically showing that I'm not calling with junk, and also because I was being friendly with the guy to my right.

3 flopped flushes all sitting next to each other 😂

@@Nolimitandy That's crazy! Anyone fold KT? 😂
2 years ago, I saw 3 players flop the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd nut straight. All 3 were all in on flop.

Just found your vlog. Really dig it. Low drag, high value.
Thanks, Tom! Glad you like it, and thanks for watching.
I truly enjoy watching your videos..and the way you thinking and explaining..
Thanks, Ramzi!
I had a day like this last Thursday. Good news is got most of it back the next day. Keep grinding! Hope to see you out there some day
Glad to hear it, Ronald! Not to spoil anything, but I've since won back what I lost here too. Check out tomorrow's vlog, it's a huge one!
Hey, I watched many of your videos and like how you share many of your thought processes. There are a lot of things I cannot find in the textbook. Keep going!
Thanks, glad you're enjoying them!
Unlucky mate. played well!
That's how it goes sometimes. 🤷 We'll get em next time!
Ouch keep the faith buddy you will bounce back
Thanks, Allan! Next episode's gonna be a monster. 😎
The gut shot pot hurt really bad but it’s your attitude that will help you get through it. Cheers.
It did, and while it felt like shit in the moment, I'm past it and have moved onto bigger and better games...and wins! Thanks for the kind words. 🙂
Always gonna be days like this
For sure, man. Wasn't fun in the moment, but hopefully I got all my ran bad out for a bit! 😅

Respect for posting sessions where you get whacked.
The losing sessions are where I learn the most, gotta keep it honest to improve. 🙂
68, ughhhhhh! The others you can live with/expect to happen. But getting it in on the flop looking that good just makes you want to curse a dude out for playing so bad AND being that lucky haha.
Yeah haha, when he said he had a draw and the obvious draws missed, I was feeling so confident when I flipped my hand over.
Urgh, how dirty is this KK Hand + the Jacks..😱🤮
But I saw u close to 25k Bankroll, so No worries at all 😄
50k incoming 😎

NICE OPEN
Should have title this one, “I was the small spoon twice”. I still cringed as if I was in the hand. Get ‘‘em on the next one👍
Hah! I was a good spoon though, I really was. Thanks, man!
So gross! Excited to move on from this session.
Yeah, I was not a fan of this one. 😂 The next one is going to be insane though!
Effing 68 of hearts, ugh. Poker can be a cruel game. Shake it off.

Nightmare session at least it was a quick kill. 6/8 guts shot yikes
Yeah, let's hope that's the worst of it for awhile!

Pretty much. 😂
