Thanks man. Things have already started heading back in the right direction. We just need to get through a few tough episodes before we catch up to real time.
@@BradOwenPoker Congrats on 666k subscribers, life sometimes gives just lemons, either you starve to death, or you keep eating them till you love their taste. Happy to see my favourite poker player grinding the downs like a champ.
I have been dreading this episode. I watched the Lodge stream live and it was brutal to watch. I have gone through downswings where NOTHING goes my way. While I play small stakes, I kind of know how you felt. Thank you for sharing the painful moments. Keeps it real and reminds me that poker includes a ton of losing. I am very much looking forward to the Cambodia streams. :)
The "Three lost buy-ins and you're done" rule Mike Caro put out on "rough nights" I attend to. The stakes got a bit higher at one place I played, and I had gotten one bad beat after another that night. So I just felt the pain, and after the third lost buy-in, I didn't want any more.
I have been checking for this episode every day since I saw the games happen live. Appreciate you posting content like this so much. The way you transparently present losses is so important for players interested in getting involved in the poker life. As always, you presented this honestly and with grace...its why your blog is so great to watch. Also...I thought you played well. That straight laydown was masterful.
Brad, I had already seen the clips from that session like everyone else probably, but I’ve been waiting for this vlog for the sole purpose of being empowered by your resilience brother. Thanks for being you and keep at it💪🙌💯
Thanks for keeping it real Brad. One thing I like about you is that you wear your heart on your sleeve. It’s just tough watching when you look so dejected. Keep pumping out the great content! Cheers!
Thanks for sharing this even though it was an excruciating session. I love how through it all, you exhibit the same high level analysis, candor and sense of humor you do in the winning session vlogs. The content you put out is a true service to the poker community. If it’s any consolation at all, content like this is extremely helpful for players such as myself on how to continue to play optimally during downswings or a single session where you’re running exceptionally poorly.
I said this before to you Brad that I love your honesty and how you keep things real! It's an incredible part of your DNA! You 100% have made a huge impact on the poker community and I know that will continue for many years to come!!
Man, I watched this stream live, that was brutal. Sometimes the cards just don’t fall your way, but you hate to see it happen in these nosebleed stakes. Look at the bright side, you’ve hit the big leagues, which will come with some big losses, but if you keep playing solid poker you’ll make it all back and then some. Keep up the great content!
Good on you posting this type of content. Most people don’t have the character to put their losses up out there. It’s been crazy following you for years for you to now be in the position to take a hit like this. Keep moving up man.
The amazing thing about you is that you show your learning experiences, as well as your successes. Not to mention that we’ve seen you bust someone, and give their money back later, giving them a big turnaround. You’re a real class act.
I applaud your ability to maintain your composure during this stream. How you didn’t reach over the table and feed Kus a fat stack is beyond me. One thing in poker is that you can NEVER bluff bad poker players and it showed with Kus and Freddie. I watch every one of your videos and try to incorporate strategies from you into my game.
I knew that there wasn’t much hope at the outset, but kudos to you for sharing and sticking through it. Also, thank you for emphasizing bankroll management and that you can afford these losses because it’s important for people to know not to do financially reckless things. As always, absolutely LOVE your vlogs! You deserve all the wins and look forward to a HUGE upswing!
It’s funny to think about how such a short while ago, Brad would have never been comfortable sitting at a 50/100 table. Glad to see the great progress!
He's still not comfortable. He doesn't have the ability to be a winning poker player. He's too conventional. Seems like a guy who read a few poker books and decided to give it a shot The most dangerous players are the Stu Ungar types who treat real cash like monopoly money. They understand implied probability, where they are in every hand, and, most importantly, how to take advantage of timid players and punish the donks.
@@RobbieStacks90 agreed ! He’s a nice guy ! Those nice guys don’t belong in nose bleed games vs pros or degens with deep pockets ! Bad prop bet acceptance! Do s Nancy Reagan and just say no! He don’t have the bank roll
Feels like I been watchin you for an eternity now. Have learned so much from ya. This stuff happens man don't beat yourself up over it. You're still one of the all time greatest.
Brad, you have been such an inspiration to me in my poker journey, and I’m so grateful for your vlogs. Your vids taught me all the fundamentals, and are always so entertaining. So sorry about the losses, keep your head up brother. ❤️
Brad is a true vlogger, doesn't hide his highs and lows, but man this one was hurt to watch LIVE and recap here on his channel. But like anything in life, you have your ups and downs. Look forward to your next winning session. Keep it up Brad.
Dude, there is a huge reason why your RUclips channel does so well…that’s because you’re an honest dude and you’ll show us your losses (sorry bro about the six figure loss) and your wins. I love your explanations of the hands, PLEASE keep doing what you do. It’s awesome to watch this poker!!!!
Bro, I love your game. That was a game that had bad juju all over it. You will be back soon. That game was an outlier. Hard to play great poker with unreasonable players with nothing to lose. Just so you know, when I get up at a game and get a bit loose, I tell myself "what would Brad Owen do" to get me back to playing right. You are great, and an inspiration. You do it right. Just a bad day at the office. Put tin your history book and let it go. BTW, I've watched everyone one of your vlogs since day one.
This was so tough to watch and I could feel my poker anxiety building with each hand. The important thing here is that all the hands you show, you're still playing well and making sound judgements and that's more than most players do with such a bad run.
Good to hear Brad doesn't play outside his br. Good to see him get back in there and back on the grind. We learn from our losses and grow as players from it.
Dude, I have have been watching you for 2 years now and this has been the most crushing video I can think of to date. Kuz couldn't miss. Keep grinding.
Oh Boy!!!!! Brad I don't think I have ever seen such a bad run of luck, never so card dead out of that many hands. I have watched you for sometime now & I know your head is screwed on & you wouldn't be losing what you couldn't afford. It is only the beginning of the year buddy. I have full confidence you will make it all back 3X over. Appreciate seeing the other side of the majority of other Blogs. Supporting from Scotland
I watched this one a couple times now. Really helps us nits to see how the good guys take losses. My takeaway is that when you take it on the chin, you have to keep firing. Very crazy and unexplained play is often the case in the games I play and sometimes the numbers just don’t add up right in the end. Hopefully they will next time. Just keep firing. Thanks for sharing this tough time, it helps so many of us. Can’t wait to see your next huge win.
Crazy and unexplained play is why I consistently lose games to friends. We play micros so there's essentially no money on the line which is the only explanation but being the most disciplined and learned player at the table (I'm still not very good don't worry but I have plenty of self-education under my belt while everyone else at the table has absolutely zero) and getting killed by bs calls and plain unluckiness is awful. I can't say I felt this as the most I've lost with friends was like $30 and not $130k but I can understand this unluckiness Brad has here and the weird plays by everyone at the table. It's terrible
Bro my stomach hurts so bad watching this. I’m a huge fan and love to see you crush it. The losses are tough to see. But you’re a baller and a gentleman and I’m looking forward to watching your massive comeback.
I remember when brad would lose $1500 and it was bad. To lose nearly $150k is wild. But it shows how far you’ve come. And we know he’ll make it all back and more 💯
I love how he feels sorry for himself that 100k was on him but doesn’t mention feeling bad for the people that backed him and watched him call a 1000bb jam with ace J os. As if people who play loose can’t ever find good cards
Finally getting around to watching this. So obviously lots of folks are going to say "variance is real", and when it finally hits in the opposite direction after such an amazing 2022, it's hard to complain.... what I want to say though is a big thank you for describing the feeling of helplessness... I similarly experienced a painful trip at the felt this last time I was out in Vegas and had the same thoughts almost verbatim "no matter what I do, and not for lack of trying, I can't seem to win, can't seem to hit the cards/hands I need, and my opponents all seem to be doing just that... plus it's such a great table and I can TOTALLY take these guys, but it's just not happening." For whatever it's worth, it feels comforting to know that this kind of stuff can happen to anyone. Thanks, Brad. We'll both get 'em next time!
This is why Brad Owen is the best there isn't a lot of people that would lose that kind of money but still have a reason to smile and try again! Your blessed and fortunate in other ways than just a great poker player man! keep up the awesome content and keep grinding for the top. There will always be people that like to see you lose that money but there's also people that like to see ya smile👍
Watched these live. Was rooting hard for you Brad! It's obvious you're plenty good enough for these games. Can't help running bad. Keep up the hard work and no more jamming with 72 off! Look forward to your vlogs and the lodge stream came out amazing, good job!
jesus, as much as I like to beat you when im on the vlog, I'm always rooting for you. That was a sick game and some brutal spots. Can't wait to see the bounce back episodes!
Nah Brad, you are amazing. This meams nothing you have went through worse, you will to this one too. Just mark them and you take them to vt later. You are special and a living legend. The courage to post this ahows how you embrace gratefulness and are a humble gentleman. Even if you would went flat you still can make it happen again. Money means nothing compared to the love we have for you.
Just a reminder: we're following you because we inherently know that you're not always going to win. But that your play is sound. Side note, and this comes from someone who is somewhere below a rank amateur in poker: I felt like you were playing at the Lodge the same way you would play if you were playing in a tournament. Which - as you're well aware - is a different mindset. Take that for what its worth, or what its not worth. Love watching your content, Brad!
First time I can ever say I wasn't looking forward to your vlog.... Watched it happen in real time, but I was really impressed with the way you handled yourself at the table and getting through recording this vlog.
That was a painful watch. I knew some spice was coming after dipping into some of the lodge highlights. Here’s hoping that’s just a blip for the start of the year, plenty more months of the year left for an upswing! Keep killing it my guy, great content.
Damn Brad! That physically hurt with each hand. I'm just glad you took it in stride and moving forward. Good luck in your adventures, and I look forward to more of these videos!
I really respect your play. I've been playing as long as you, but I almost have quit after running bad recently. Watching you (and Negreanu) make the right plays and also lose reassured me that that's just how it goes sometimes.
That's why Brad is doing it right n has so much love ... he posts the good, the bad and this which was the ugly. It was hard to watch but looking forward to the up swing.
No guts... no glory. And boy you got some guts! So great that you do exactly as you do... show it like it is. Win lose or draw. Also totally mind boggling to show how crazy sometimes gets paid. Stains my soul for those who "disrespect the game" - as least in my opinion. The lessen they should learn is that kind of play makes you go broke... not the other way around. Really really liked watching this episode. You rock Brad.
Brutal….I’ve been on tables like this, never for those stakes though but tables where no matter what cards you get dealt, you’ll lose everytime. You’re still my hero buddy!
“He makes a pretty standard call with King 4 off suit, solvers usually mix in folding and…. Folding.” LOL Ouch man that hurt.. Always rooting for you Brad!
Well, when you're on 666K subs it's probably not a huge shock that you get torched! Mate, that was a horror show and I felt for you every time a card came out. But you know better than any of us that this is how it goes sometimes, and you have to look at the long term and you will no doubt have analysed the plays an know you couldn't really do anything different. Keep at it fella.
Tough session, makes me feel better knowing it happens to one of the best, when I feel like nothing is working for me and maybe I should give up. Get it back 💯
I know this is hardly a good comparison but I play 2-5 regularly and the last 5 sessions I’ve had have all been losing ones. I went last night after work and won 4 out my last 8 buy ins back. Hang in there man, you’re a solid player and a great guy. Bad luck only exists if there is also good luck
Dude got wrecked but took like a champ. Hang in there Brad. Things will turn around. Just like run good you got a bad run. We all cheering for you to win a tourney.
That was brutal Brad. Sometimes when you run that bad, it is best to not really get involved and let some good hands go. Your face showed that you were not enjoying yourself and when that occurs it's best to sit out and save some chips for the next session. Great content but I think we all can feel your pain.
You are solely the greatest inspiration that I've ever had to one day become a Poker Vlogger just like you Brad and I have lost at least comparable amounts of money to what I just witnessed in this video so hear me when I say that I FELT that loss in my heart, and in my soul, I wish you all of my Run-Good until I need it back when I come to run the tables with you one day, God-willing it'll be soon. In the meantime, Please keep up the amazing work and know that I'm rooting for you with every upload, and every stream that I can catch, Good luck my Hero 💜💜💜
Oh man this episode hurt my soul, but I’m sure Brad’s hurting even more. We’re still rooting for you and hang in there!
Thanks man. Things have already started heading back in the right direction. We just need to get through a few tough episodes before we catch up to real time.

@@BradOwenPoker sounds like poker to me
This one hit me to man.cheers brad we are all anticipating that next upswing!💪🏻🚀🚀
@@BradOwenPoker you told us about this down swing but we have faith you’re going to crush it for the total over the year!!!!!
This episode was so painful, knew it was coming cos of the lodge streams. Get through it Brad we’re all rooting for you from London!
he didnt show the 2-7 hand.. kinda lame

hey Deb Swift!! hope all is well in your neck of the woods!

It's not even poker it's just morons (sans brad) being bored with too much $$ jamming K4o and TJo for piles is a joke.
Total Respect to Brad. Most honest man on RUclips. Reflects life’s ups and downs in the form of poker.

not sure why he wouldnt show the 2-7 hand... kinda lame
This is the real Brad. Nothing in life worth accomplishing is a smooth sail. Brad kept his composure as well as anyone can hope for. Respect❤
Must of been brutal to relive and edit this video. Kuddos to you Brad for always being a pro in the good and bad side of poker
must of...
Dude that was brutal! Sorry you had such a bad run in the “home opener”. Good luck Brad I’m sure you will come back strong!
Well, looks like I’ll be on a 23 minute “bathroom break” during work today 🤷🏻♂️
looks like imma do a 23 minute study break
Lol 😂
Some days it just ain't your day!!
Lmao right there with you
Nice. Nothing like watching Brad play for 23 minutes while you sit on the shitter

Hang in there Bradley! Long time fan. You and Andrew are the reason I got into this great game!

He is not. Bankrupt soon if he can't come to his senses.
How could you watch that and think Brad was comfortable lol

This was legitimately one of the most painful watches I’ve had on YT. You could feel Brad’s visceral pain. Hang in there homie!
Whining. Yes. It’s unbearable. Thankfully he wins more than he loses so we hear the more jovial commentary cuz this stuff blows
Dude, there is a huge reason why your RUclips channel does so well…that’s because you’re an honest dude and you’ll show us your losses (sorry bro about the six figure loss) and your wins. I love your explanations of the hands, PLEASE keep doing what you do. It’s awesome to watch this poker!!!!
Hurts extra when you are in a good game... Good luck Brad. In the long run, as you know, it's about decisions, not outcomes.
Bro, I love your game. That was a game that had bad juju all over it. You will be back soon. That game was an outlier. Hard to play great poker with unreasonable players with nothing to lose. Just so you know, when I get up at a game and get a bit loose, I tell myself "what would Brad Owen do" to get me back to playing right. You are great, and an inspiration. You do it right.

Looking forward to the next vlog with the absolutely ridiculously large win, after this disaster
This was so tough to watch and I could feel my poker anxiety building with each hand. The important thing here is that all the hands you show, you're still playing well and making sound judgements and that's more than most players do with such a bad run.
did i just see AA fold pre? 9:15 ish
Yeah, I paused the video to find that. What game is that guy playing?
He was away from the table, so his hand was dealt and then folded automatically.
Good to hear Brad doesn't play outside his br. Good to see him get back in there and back on the grind. We learn from our losses and grow as players from it.
Dude, I have have been watching you for 2 years now and this has been the most crushing video I can think of to date. Kuz couldn't miss. Keep grinding.
You are an inspiration not only for poker but for how to advance in life, this is minor blip for a winner like you. keep doing what your doing man
I was happy to see all the friends reach out to make sure you were good. You also have tons of fans on here that are rooting for you.
Oh Boy!!!!! Brad I don't think I have ever seen such a bad run of luck, never so card dead out of that many hands.

I read Andrew’s text in his voice. Very calm yet caring and warm
Brad, thanks for sharing, the text messages, stake situation, and your poker and personal life! :)
Can’t imagine the pressure you must be under playing these insane games.
Kudos to you I don’t think I could make it in the one to game down in Austin
Great videos! Watching your videos throughout the years definitely helped my own gameplay!
First time I can ever say I wasn't looking forward to your vlog....
Watched it happen in real time, but I was really impressed with the way you handled yourself at the table and getting through recording this vlog.
🤣😂🤣🤣
Absolutely soul crushing. Tough to watch. Keep your head up! Happy to hear things are headed in the right direction!
That was a painful watch. I knew some spice was coming after dipping into some of the lodge highlights. Here’s hoping that’s just a blip for the start of the year, plenty more months of the year left for an upswing! Keep killing it my guy, great content.
Damn Brad! That physically hurt with each hand. I'm just glad you took it in stride and moving forward. Good luck in your adventures, and I look forward to more of these videos!
Absolutely brutal! You got this Brad!! Ready for you come back and kickass!
I really respect your play. I've been playing as long as you, but I almost have quit after running bad recently. Watching you (and Negreanu) make the right plays and also lose reassured me that that's just how it goes sometimes.
Thanks for this contribution. Ups or down. You are always transparent with the journey. Keep at it.
Keep that head up brad, your videos get me thru my bad swings
This basically sums up every homegame EVER for me
This one hurts man. I appreciate your humility and forthrightness regarding the situation. Looking forward to the rebound!
That was brutal, really respect you for staying positive. Good luck going forward man!!
That's why Brad is doing it right n has so much love ... he posts the good, the bad and this which was the ugly. It was hard to watch but looking forward to the up swing.
Best part of this vlog is.... the dealer 😍
I watched the stream live and it was just brutal watching you go through that. Glad you are bouncing back!
OMG! I can't believe that session - astonishing!
I felt your pain this video. Appreciate the transparency on how you were feeling.
Holy banana hammock, I love to see the maniac win. Kutz is definitely the hero in this one. Yay!!
Good fold against Flinestone, that river chk raise SCREAMS nut flush
No guts... no glory. And boy you got some guts! So great that you do exactly as you do... show it like it is. Win lose or draw. Also totally mind boggling to show how crazy sometimes gets paid. Stains my soul for those who "disrespect the game" - as least in my opinion. The lessen they should learn is that kind of play makes you go broke... not the other way around.

“He makes a pretty standard call with King 4 off suit, solvers usually mix in folding and…. Folding.” LOL
Ouch man that hurt.. Always rooting for you Brad!
hit the feels man. Sorry for your loss.
That was tough to watch again watching it live was bad, then watching it again so brutal, hang in there old mate brad
Well, when you're on 666K subs it's probably not a huge shock that you get torched! Mate, that was a horror show and I felt for you every time a card came out. But you know better than any of us that this is how it goes sometimes, and you have to look at the long term and you will no doubt have analysed the plays an know you couldn't really do anything different. Keep at it fella.
best poker vlog, your commentary is so good. keep the videos rolling brad
Man that’s unbelievably brutal
I wish you the best to come
Tough session, makes me feel better knowing it happens to one of the best, when I feel like nothing is working for me and maybe I should give up. Get it back 💯
It's unbelievable how well these money drunk fish run. Good play and the grind will always prevail in the long run Brad, keep at it big dog!
Oh man, I was nearly physically sick for you there. Wishing you better luck upcoming. Andrew
This vlog was harder to watch than the actual stream 😣 you’re going to bounce back man! You’re still hands down the best vlogger on RUclips.
I know this is hardly a good comparison but I play 2-5 regularly and the last 5 sessions I’ve had have all been losing ones. I went last night after work and won 4 out my last 8 buy ins back. Hang in there man, you’re a solid player and a great guy. Bad luck only exists if there is also good luck
Andrew and Doug are looking at you like “oh no this guys losing it”
You have a ton of support Brad. It’s not about taking a hit, it’s about how you can take hits and keep moving forward. Keep it up.
I like how you ended this episode, letting us know that you're crushing it overall!
This video crushed me. I hope the Poker Gods turn things around.
BRUTAL Session. Not only card dead, but worse card coolered by the nuts when you finally get a hand. Great composure. Keep your chin up.
Wow I’ve never had such a heavy heart after watching an episode
Appreciate this one and as tough of a loss as it was, your commentary here is amazing. I can literally feel your pain.
Dude got wrecked but took like a champ. Hang in there Brad. Things will turn around. Just like run good you got a bad run. We all cheering for you to win a tourney.
hang in there brad, you inspire the rest of us!
You be good Brad. Remember the law of large numbers! Appreciate all your episodes.
That was brutal Brad. Sometimes when you run that bad, it is best to not really get involved and let some good hands go. Your face showed that you were not enjoying yourself and when that occurs it's best to sit out and save some chips for the next session. Great content but I think we all can feel your pain.
You are solely the greatest inspiration that I've ever had to one day become a Poker Vlogger just like you Brad and I have lost at least comparable amounts of money to what I just witnessed in this video so hear me when I say that I FELT that loss in my heart, and in my soul, I wish you all of my Run-Good until I need it back when I come to run the tables with you one day, God-willing it'll be soon. In the meantime, Please keep up the amazing work and know that I'm rooting for you with every upload, and every stream that I can catch, Good luck my Hero 💜💜💜
I wish you could have turned Freddy's and Flinstone's lies into Blarney Rubble. Damn. Love the vlog Brad, stay the course.
We’re ready for the comeback Brad!!!
