Really like the fact you show winning and losing hands. Really good to help players learn from your mistakes and good moves! My most favourable streamer around.
imagine if Andrew wasn't a pro poker player, imagine he was just a creative guy making up these hand stories... "hmm, think I will give myself pocket kings under the gun for this hand and a pesky ace will come on the flop...not very favorable.." love the vids really, keep grinding
Let’s pretend marshal mathers never picked up a pen. Let’s pretend things would’ve been no different. Pretend he procrastinated had no motivation. Pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin they could blow away with the wind.
What's up Andrew, I'm 17 and have just gotten into no limit hold'em. I discovered your channel a couple days back and have watched a bunch of your vlogs. Played with my friends today and, using your methods, won $25 (in a 10/20 cent game, $10 buy in). Your channel is next level and I've already learned a ton - really think it is going to blow up. Keep grinding man. Cheers.
Got me to subscribe. Best Poker Vlog out there. A lot of succeeding at something, is visualization. What Andrew is doing, is really good for the mind of a rounder.
Recurring theme of some Polka or Oom Pah Pah music backing... for Polker Hands.... that would actually be hilarious! Or 1 time gag... play it totally straight and deadpan. Neeme is vaguely German right? That's all the cred you need! And then you can have a battle over "fair use" with that OTHER poker RUclipsr. This stuff writes itself!
Respect man. so glad you're showing the real scenario and show all the losses and wins unlike other pros who just show that they are winning all the time to make people think that poker is easy. All the best for your future sessions mate. Will keep watching regardless of the Ls or Ws. Maybe on the river where u got the aces full, in my opinion, if i were in that spot, i would probably make a really small bet like 200-300 to get some value. Pocket 10s would raise the bet, an 8 would make the call, two pairs like ace 10 would make the call and even weaker hands like a single pair might make the call. Shoving there would definitely have some merit but overall if your opponent has let say a 10 or even ace 10, it would be hard for your opponent to call your shove on the river.
I love that you're getting back into longer vlogs with MORE HANDS AND ANALYSIS. brother were dying for that kind of content!!!! If you made a 5hr video of just hands and analysis everyone would watch and wouldn't miss a second haha
Andrew really impressed by how you were able to put your massive loss behind you and continue to play at the top of your game, really difficult to do. The AA hand is extremely interesting to analyze, I think your c bet on the flop was spot on, nearly impossible for your opponent to completely miss that flop. The surprise obviously came when he check raised, I think you showed balls for lack of a better term to smooth his raise, I feel that I might have gotten it in at that point for fear of allowing him to hit one of the many draws out there. In the end I am not sure what is the most profitable play, smooth or jam on the flop but I like your line a lot! I believe it is most profitable over the long run.
Hey Drew, the reason id 3bet flopped top set with AA on that board is because his most likely holdings are big combo draws that may look to get it in. Or raise turn in order to get some value if he misses river or has a real hand which can't fold anyway. Of course if a heart hits the river you look like a genius stacking him without ever putting a single raise in post flop. But river sizing seems irrelevant since he's most likely check folding most his range in this spot (doesn't make sense for opponents to trap here since we check back most of our ace x combos, except for maybe AK specifically). Thanks for the great content as usual! Kia

Love your Vlogs Buddy... been following almost from the start... Great seeing you being so honest and sharing everything, keeping it real... I just booked a Holiday to Vegas for November this year... I'm a complete amateur Player and only play in local Pub games here in Scotland... Still I'm happy to come drop some cash when I'm over and see what happens... If I spot you when I'm over then a drink is on me :) ... Ps.. I love a good chat at the table, makes for an enjoyable game... like you said in a previous Vlog... Keep crushing it buddy
Vlog is favourable! Andrew, do you ever play in tournaments? I'd like to see how you change your style up in a tourney! Great videos, hope to see you on TV one day!
The Jetta Hands! Best video moment for me, "the only way to get back that money...starry night SLUTS"...ahahah, it's on purpose, please do admit it. Great, great stuff as usual, so classy. Thanks
Andrew, this is the only channel where I like the videos before even watching. Absolutely love these vlogs, and thank you so much for putting the efforts to make these the best poker vlogs out there! Cheers! 🍻
I literally wait for your vlog every single day! Love the way you do it! Seen many other blogs but nothing even close to this! Keep up the great work and like how you say "pretty favorable" lol Good luck with every hand you play brother!
Andrew this was really on of Your better vlog's I feel like. I also really enjoyed Your thoughts and feelings on taking a big loss and how You put it behind You. We have all take that devastating losing session and I like You really feel how a person responds to this is what makes the Person. Do You let this cloud Your vision, or do You learn from it and use it a tool to get to the next level. I like You and all players around the states look to something when I have this feeling and I break out the log book also and remind Myself of the past and I get over it very fast, but the first 24 hours or so is sicking that's for sure. If things ever for some reason don't work out in poker (Your doing awesome) You should head over to Hollywood and take up directing and or acting. Your that enjoyable to watch. Also kudos to Your Parents as the have raised a very fine Young Man. You take care of Yourself. And keep em coming, Man 43K subscribers Look at You go!!
Dude I just saw you at the MUG this Wednesday at the lodge. I wanted to come say hi but you were already swamped with people doing the same. But I just wanted to say in case you see this that you are a huge inspiration to me. I’ve been playing poker for about four months now and am going through all your old vlogs in order. Booked a 1k loss last night, which is one of the biggest losses I’ve had so far. You’re insight on looking at the big picture and my profits over time is really helpful. Hope to get to meet you sometime in the future when there aren’t 600 people trying to talk to you.
Andrew, you inspire me to step up and try higher stakes poker than my normal 1/2 NL game. I will buy in "for the max" on a higher stakes table this weekend when I go please at the Hard Rock! Keep up the vlogs sir, some of us GREATLY appreciate them and look forward to watching them daily. Thank you for being you Andrew, Bryan
Congrats, you had some very nice hands in this video. I agreed with most of your plays on review of the hands. I always enjoy the postmortem analysis and your positive attitude.
About blocking and blockers: Might be worth a vlog segment on analyzing blockers. Absolutely important to do, as long as kept in perspective. Blockers reduce the card frequency for villain's range, but usually not to zero. And crazy stuff can happen, like a JT2 flop holding JT, villain 1 can have JJ and villain 2 can have TT. *Extremely* unlikely, but not impossible either. So other factors, like action to that point and table rep of villains have to be considered as well.
Your intro comments are so on point! During your next q&a can u discuss your methods for anti set mining or defensive poker strategy with top top or top two? I have busted my stack more times with this and it does bring those negative emotions and start the next session with trepidation. Seems like sometimes I'm on the money and really can read people well and make the lay down but most of the time I really can't. It's more difficult than counting cards I think requires paying a lot of attention and for me finding like that quiet place in your mind which isn't always there. Rambling but if you could share any tips would be awesome!
"next q&a can u discuss your methods for anti set mining or defensive poker strategy with top top or top two? I have busted my stack more times with this" There are definitely things to look out for, but in general, there's an old saying that if you never value-own yourself, you aren't betting enough for value. True, you want to minimize losses, but that can't carry over into playing scared all the time and leaving money on the table. If you are confident you've got the value part of your game dialed in, that's the time to start looking at adjustments for defensive play -- but most people never get the value part dialed in, an I'm no exception.
Hey Neeme, I'm nearly 2 years late watching this video but wanted to share my thoughts on the last hand because it's a situation that I feel I get put in a lot in my local games - Preflop and flop are pretty standard. On the turn facing that bet on that wet of a board vs a "good young" player KQ should be a call, but obviously you aren't thrilled about calling 2 streets on some runouts. KQ is the best hand you can have in that spot on that runout, assuming you bet nearly all top pair or better to protect your hand multi-ways on that wet of a board. Even if you do check some aces, KQ is towards the top of your range of possible hands. On the river you could argue folding vs an OMC type player, but if you fold KQ here in a spot where the villain can have some bluffs then you fold the second best hand you can have assuming you bet all aces on the flop, best hand you can have being KJ. If you do check some top pairs or better on the flop, what are they and why? Great video as always, come do a meet up game in New England if the Patriots win!
Back with positive attitude. No dwelling around here, for sure. Also noticed you were crushing with your bets. Okay, so you let a little equity go, but you flexed to make your mark at the table. All important when up against bullies/bluffers. Loved the three 4 play. Favourable to see you back at the table. UK Paul.
Glad I'm catching up on your Vlogs. Glad I saw this one. Sound advice on not looking at one big loss a one game, but to look at the week, two week, month season as a whole. I'm definitely going to need that in mind.
Nice video, never easy to get back on the horse. With your AA hand, you mentioned that maybe a lower bet on the river was in order. What is the *least* you would be on that river? If your high is $800, what is your floor for that bet?
Great video as always Andrew. May I suggest you might also want to mention sometimes what your opponent might have for your hand range, like in the K/Q hand you could also have many of those missed draws or combo draws.
Great call there with KQ Andrew. I think it's key that you somewhat knew your opponent there bc there's a ton of hands that beat you. Kudos... and thanks for putting great videos out pretty often!
Andrew, About that first hand where you had no show down value, but had good equity on your draws and fold equity, do you ever have difficulty pulling the trigger on those type of hands after running bad? As a pro, you move on from the bad run and make the correct play, but in the moment does it weigh on you a little heavier given a recent negative results. I can't speak for other viewers, for me giving the hand histories form the car works fine. Your videos have a lot of cinematography value, but when your giving the dirt on the hands, the backdrop doesn't need to be stimulating, at those moments the hands are the star of the show.
Andrew, I have to say that the racking up and cashing out sounds are some of my favorite noises on youtube. Unfortunately you're in second place to the Primitive Technology guy - his videos are just gorgeous soundscapes.
Andrew, is there anyway you could think about putting effective stack sizes for you and your opponent in heads up pots, or maybe just yourself in multiway? Atleast for me, it helps me make better sense of the hands in regards to the decisions. Again, love the videos!
Nice session, getting back on the good foot. Quick question. Do you ever think while you're away from the table for any duration whether running good or bad, what hands you may potentially be missing out on? I know when I leave the table especially after a cold run of cards I feel as though I may be missing those hands I was looking for.
He's Back! Andrew KneeMe! Lol! Man, you make everyone's day when your vlog comes out...but when you win ($$$) it makes me Happy living in Vegas. Oh Yeah Andrew! No luck on the Starri Night Slots. Lol!
1. Ahheeemm....what game did I say he needed to jump into? 2. First hand was not played optimally. The set of Aces-even with the flush draw-was played well since the opponent showed a willingness to put more bets into the pot. However, on a couple of the hands you did what I have problems with (river) by betting too much. You could of bet $300 and gotten a call. Might have gotten the same result from opponent if he sensed that you were were just value betting light, but worth a try. 3. :) :) Happy to see that you are alive and back to the grind. 4. Being a person trying to control my gambling you killed me :) with the opening "This is it..Starry Night". LMAOOO!
andrew, you're such a boss homie. thank you so much. I just got a new job, time to regrow the roll and get back to it! Thank you for the motivation my brotha.
Awesome video! Very grateful for all the hard work you put in! Love your perspective btw the way. It's said the one trait that successful people share is..................... resilience! Accept the past and surrender to the present moment! Thanks again!!!
Love how you played AA bro. I wouldn't 3b otf cos we already hold 2 Aces, chances of him having 1 are so slim now and if he did have the last A or TT/88, we would prob be stacking him anyway. We wanna give him the chance to continue bluffing if he was and not let him get away lightly if we 3b him. Also by calling the c/r with some monsters like top set, we can protect some of our draws like KQhh or 97hh if we did cbet with those and get c/r. Like the jam otr as well to get max value from top pair or a smaller boat. If he missed his draw or was bluffing he's gonna fold to a small v bet anyway. It also lets you balance your bluffing range otr when you shove with your missed draws like KQs or 97hh etc. Call down with KQo the last hand was nice too. Liked your hand analysis for that one.
Great vlog Andrew. In the KQo hand at 16:48, do you ever 3-bet from LP in that spot? That's what I usually do with that hand in that situation, unless I think I'm gonna get 4-bet too frequently due to an aggro villain, or one with whom I've established a dynamic because I've already 3-bet him (or her) this session.
I do, but KQo is almost too good to 3B there, if you know what I mean? I'd rather 3B with JTo or hands like that. I'm not going to get into much trouble with JTo, but I could with KQo in a 3B pot.
Andrew, love your videos! Can you please put a dealer button chip next to the hands so that we can see where you're at instead of you telling us where you're at, ie, utg+1 etc. Sorry, but I'm not great with the lingo, but when I see the dealer button, I understand the positions. Thanks and keep up the great work!
But, if neither Andrew nor Villain are on the Button, how would that work? Say Andrew is in the HJ (2 to right of Button) and Villian is in the BB (Big Blind)?
Just an oppinion for the hand where You held aces: I think the turn is a clear all-in. His flush and/or straightdraws are still alive, he might also call You with strong aces or any hand with an 8. Problem with calling imho is that he'll pay nada if he bricks the river with the drawing type hands...
watching from the Philippines here, bro! and I'm so happy right now!! thanks for all the coolest vids! I hope we can see each other here on July 27 for APT
and heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeFOLDS! much suspense than the horror movie!
Love seeing your videos my man, they;re top notch. I'm hoping you're in town in vegas June 16th-18th so we could get in a session despite me being there for a music festival. Cheers!
Like the info and the card community showdown, looks professional and if you maintain this method you can better predict at what point when your up is too much based on percent gain
Andrew: is it bad etiquette to leave a table after winning a big hand? I'm a recreational player and I find myself staying way longer than I want if I'm up big or just won a big pot. Thoughts?
Andrew! Thanks for all these vlogs, basically watched all of them! they have really helped my live cash game! So much so, it gave me the confidence to enter my first live tournament, where I placed 2ND!!! in a field of 75 people! thanks too you I made a nice profit! thanks!
Very nice! What was the buyin? No one offered a deal on the final table? I don't think I've ever seen a 75 size field tourney go to an actual heads-up live. Not that I've seen a lot of live tournies.
buy in was £20, and it was a turbo tournament with there being 30min levels before the break and then after the break there was 20 min levels. 5000 starting chips as well allowed for very little wiggle room. when we hit final table, me and the person who beat me had around 65000 chips, whilst the others had around 25000 chips.
Hey Andrew. Love your vlogs. What app are you using for your gains and such? I'm going to start griding a bankroll for larger games and need a good app like that. Any info would be awesome.
Hey Andrew you told me once you use premiere pro editing software but there seems to be a few different ones? Estimated cost around 100, 200? Or which version? thx Bo
Andrew, great videos mate. Rather favourable. Kudos from Australia. Have you considered playing at live at the bike given you're originally from Los Angeles?
Okay, did some thinking about your AA top-set hand: For one thing, when he raises you on the flop, the flat-call is BY FAR the best play. He most likely doesn't have ace in his hand. So, that leaves smaller sets and COMBO-DRAWS. Of those two options, it's most likely he has a combo-draw. At this point you KNOW his cards, but he isn't exactly sure what you have (he's most likely thinking you have AK.) In situations like that, it's best to KEEP your range advantage and smooth call, being as your hand will remain deceptively strong. So, why risk more money IN THE BLIND? Call his bet, see what comes, and act accordingly. Last thing, on the turn the villain bets 330$, and in my opinion, that is one of the FEW times in which something close to a MIN-RAISE might have been appropriate, it COULD like look, "I know you're on the flush draw, and I'm not letting my AK get cracked for so cheap." He's most likely drawing dead, or possibly to a 1 outer (straight flush), BUT you'd be giving him SUCH a good price he CAN'T really fold there. Sure, if he makes a flush on the river, your min-raise on the turn will prevent you from extracting maximum value, but if the river blanks (which it will most likely), the hands over, so why NOT tax him BEFORE the river comes? I suppose to get the PERFECT answer in that situation would depend on stack-sizes, but I prefer a small raise on the turn.
Really like the fact you show winning and losing hands. Really good to help players learn from your mistakes and good moves! My most favourable streamer around.
Thanks Tom. 👊🏼
Im still stuck on the 1/2 in London! Massive respect for you, keep on going and more importantly keep on streaming :)
Gotta say, right now your videos are the things I look forward to most on RUclips. Keep it up Andrew!
That smirk and swag walk at 10:48 says it all! Yesterday's sheep is today's GOAT!!
Great content as always Andrew!
imagine if Andrew wasn't a pro poker player, imagine he was just a creative guy making up these hand stories... "hmm, think I will give myself pocket kings under the gun for this hand and a pesky ace will come on the flop...not very favorable.."
love the vids really, keep grinding
LOL
Well, with the amount of sets and quads he flops it wouldn't surprise me lol.
Let’s pretend marshal mathers never picked up a pen. Let’s pretend things would’ve been no different. Pretend he procrastinated had no motivation. Pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin they could blow away with the wind.
Living up to your name I see .
What's up Andrew, I'm 17 and have just gotten into no limit hold'em. I discovered your channel a couple days back and have watched a bunch of your vlogs. Played with my friends today and, using your methods, won $25 (in a 10/20 cent game, $10 buy in). Your channel is next level and I've already learned a ton - really think it is going to blow up.

Got me to subscribe. Best Poker Vlog out there. A lot of succeeding at something, is visualization. What Andrew is doing, is really good for the mind of a rounder.
Jetta hands is cool but have you considered calling it 'Polker hands'?
What's up guys, Andrew Neeme here.
Oh, I see what you did there . . .
Recurring theme of some Polka or Oom Pah Pah music backing... for Polker Hands.... that would actually be hilarious! Or 1 time gag... play it totally straight and deadpan. Neeme is vaguely German right? That's all the cred you need! And then you can have a battle over "fair use" with that OTHER poker RUclipsr. This stuff writes itself!
That 86 bluff reminded me of that Doug vs Alec hand. Maybe the bluffer watched Doug's video about it? lol
Love the Vlog, looking through the comments and mad respect to Andrew and how many comments he responds too. Seems like a legit dude.
Good shit Andrew, I was gonna go to sleep, but got the notification and BAM, my night just got hella favourable!
Respect man. so glad you're showing the real scenario and show all the losses and wins unlike other pros who just show that they are winning all the time to make people think that poker is easy.

My hero..... Andrew "Flopped A Set" Neeme. I appreciate your well done videos, TY
Andrew this was really on of Your better vlog's I feel like. I also really enjoyed Your thoughts and feelings on taking a big loss and how You put it behind You. We have all take that devastating losing session and I like You really feel how a person responds to this is what makes the Person.

These are a great watch. Solid production value and good analysis on the hands too! #jettahands

Was ready to go to bed but saw this upload instead! Great stuff andrew keep it up!
Congrats, you had some very nice hands in this video. I agreed with most of your plays on review of the hands. I always enjoy the postmortem analysis and your positive attitude.

Even if you do check some aces, KQ is towards the top of your range of possible hands. On the river you could argue folding vs an OMC type player, but if you fold KQ here in a spot where the villain can have some bluffs then you fold the second best hand you can have assuming you bet all aces on the flop, best hand you can have being KJ. If you do check some top pairs or better on the flop, what are they and why?
Great video as always, come do a meet up game in New England if the Patriots win!
I gotta do something with my life why do I get excited when Andrew uploads a video at 7:30 in the morning..
Back with positive attitude. No dwelling around here, for sure. Also noticed you were crushing with your bets. Okay, so you let a little equity go, but you flexed to make your mark at the table. All important when up against bullies/bluffers. Loved the three 4 play. Favourable to see you back at the table. UK Paul.
Congrats on the win. I like this bounce back vlog showing your positive mindset.Cheers!
Glad I'm catching up on your Vlogs. Glad I saw this one. Sound advice on not looking at one big loss a one game, but to look at the week, two week, month season as a whole. I'm definitely going to need that in mind.
Nice win, Andrew! Congrats! And great call with the KQ. That guy was full of sheeeeet.
Yo Andrew.great advice on the down swings and staying focused on your game
Nice video, never easy to get back on the horse. With your AA hand, you mentioned that maybe a lower bet on the river was in order. What is the *least* you would be on that river? If your high is $800, what is your floor for that bet?
Great video as always Andrew. May I suggest you might also want to mention sometimes what your opponent might have for your hand range, like in the K/Q hand you could also have many of those missed draws or combo draws.
You're my inspiration in my amateur poker style. THANK YOU!
Great call there with KQ Andrew. I think it's key that you somewhat knew your opponent there bc there's a ton of hands that beat you. Kudos... and thanks for putting great videos out pretty often!
Andrew,
About that first hand where you had no show down value, but had good equity on your draws and fold equity, do you ever have difficulty pulling the trigger on those type of hands after running bad? As a pro, you move on from the bad run and make the correct play, but in the moment does it weigh on you a little heavier given a recent negative results.
I can't speak for other viewers, for me giving the hand histories form the car works fine. Your videos have a lot of cinematography value, but when your giving the dirt on the hands, the backdrop doesn't need to be stimulating, at those moments the hands are the star of the show.
'wrapping up the session' gets me every time
Hey Andrew! Another great vlog!
Don't know if anyone suggested this one, but you should call the segment "Hands on the Wheel!"
Andrew, I have to say that the racking up and cashing out sounds are some of my favorite noises on youtube. Unfortunately you're in second place to the Primitive Technology guy - his videos are just gorgeous soundscapes.
Great vids and analysis. I've always had trouble getting value and your breakdown helps a lot.
Great video, liked the hand analysis. Keep up the great work Andrew
Keep up the working out my man! Great way to let loose before or after a session. Quality vlogs as always
This is making me a better player. Great stuff Andrew. Really good quality
Good to hear it mate, thanks.
Andrew, is there anyway you could think about putting effective stack sizes for you and your opponent in heads up pots, or maybe just yourself in multiway? Atleast for me, it helps me make better sense of the hands in regards to the decisions. Again, love the videos!
Here now finally and things are looking favorable @Planet Hollywood
39th Volg and 44k Subs. Incredible Andrew! Just incredible.
Nice session, getting back on the good foot.
Quick question. Do you ever think while you're away from the table for any duration whether running good or bad, what hands you may potentially be missing out on? I know when I leave the table especially after a cold run of cards I feel as though I may be missing those hands I was looking for.
YESSS another Andrew video!
He's Back! Andrew KneeMe! Lol! Man, you make everyone's day when your vlog comes out...but when you win ($$$) it makes me Happy living in Vegas. Oh Yeah Andrew! No luck on the Starri Night Slots. Lol!
crushed it dude! killer vlogs man. keep it up
awesome comeback, keep up the positive attitude, all the support from snowy Charlotte, NC
1. Ahheeemm....what game did I say he needed to jump into?
2. First hand was not played optimally. The set of Aces-even with the flush draw-was played well since the opponent showed a willingness to put more bets into the pot. However, on a couple of the hands you did what I have problems with (river) by betting too much. You could of bet $300 and gotten a call. Might have gotten the same result from opponent if he sensed that you were were just value betting light, but worth a try.
3. :) :) Happy to see that you are alive and back to the grind.
4. Being a person trying to control my gambling you killed me :) with the opening "This is it..Starry Night". LMAOOO!
On your tombstone, have it say "Wrappin' up a session." hahaha
*I'm a simple man. I see Andrew's video, I hit the LIKE button.*
andrew, you're such a boss homie. thank you so much. I just got a new job, time to regrow the roll and get back to it! Thank you for the motivation my brotha.
Awesome video! Very grateful for all the hard work you put in! Love your perspective btw the way. It's said the one trait that successful people share is..................... resilience! Accept the past and surrender to the present moment! Thanks again!!!
Love how you played AA bro. I wouldn't 3b otf cos we already hold 2 Aces, chances of him having 1 are so slim now and if he did have the last A or TT/88, we would prob be stacking him anyway. We wanna give him the chance to continue bluffing if he was and not let him get away lightly if we 3b him. Also by calling the c/r with some monsters like top set, we can protect some of our draws like KQhh or 97hh if we did cbet with those and get c/r. Like the jam otr as well to get max value from top pair or a smaller boat. If he missed his draw or was bluffing he's gonna fold to a small v bet anyway. It also lets you balance your bluffing range otr when you shove with your missed draws like KQs or 97hh etc.
Call down with KQo the last hand was nice too. Liked your hand analysis for that one.
13:43 hahahaha the pause got me for some reason
"Turn is an offsuit King, that means we made a pair" haha, keep it up Andrew, we are all watching
Great vlog Andrew. In the KQo hand at 16:48, do you ever 3-bet from LP in that spot? That's what I usually do with that hand in that situation, unless I think I'm gonna get 4-bet too frequently due to an aggro villain, or one with whom I've established a dynamic because I've already 3-bet him (or her) this session.
Vs an ep open my standard is to flat. Think there's merit to other options and especially vs mp or lp opens.
I do, but KQo is almost too good to 3B there, if you know what I mean? I'd rather 3B with JTo or hands like that. I'm not going to get into much trouble with JTo, but I could with KQo in a 3B pot.
Great attitude man! I come out to Vegas 3-4 times a year & almost always play that Wynn 2-5 game... Very profitable :)
my day just got so much more favourable
Andrew, love your videos! Can you please put a dealer button chip next to the hands so that we can see where you're at instead of you telling us where you're at, ie, utg+1 etc. Sorry, but I'm not great with the lingo, but when I see the dealer button, I understand the positions. Thanks and keep up the great work!
But, if neither Andrew nor Villain are on the Button, how would that work? Say Andrew is in the HJ (2 to right of Button) and Villian is in the BB (Big Blind)?
Just an oppinion for the hand where You held aces: I think the turn is a clear all-in. His flush and/or straightdraws are still alive, he might also call You with strong aces or any hand with an 8. Problem with calling imho is that he'll pay nada if he bricks the river with the drawing type hands...
watching from the Philippines here, bro! and I'm so happy right now!! thanks for all the coolest vids! I hope we can see each other here on July 27 for APT
and heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeFOLDS!
much suspense than the horror movie!
And this video was....favourable!
Love seeing your videos my man, they;re top notch. I'm hoping you're in town in vegas June 16th-18th so we could get in a session despite me being there for a music festival. Cheers!
Your video popped up on my feed, really enjoyed it and subscribed! Thanks.
Like the info and the card community showdown, looks professional and if you maintain this method you can better predict at what point when your up is too much based on percent gain
Great Video! Did pocket 8's for the other guy ever cross your mind in the AA hand?
Great videos. What are your tipping standards, to dealers and cashiers?
Andrew: is it bad etiquette to leave a table after winning a big hand? I'm a recreational player and I find myself staying way longer than I want if I'm up big or just won a big pot. Thoughts?
Nice bounce-back. Great analysis as always.
Andrew! Thanks for all these vlogs, basically watched all of them! they have really helped my live cash game! So much so, it gave me the confidence to enter my first live tournament, where I placed 2ND!!! in a field of 75 people! thanks too you I made a nice profit! thanks!
Very nice! What was the buyin? No one offered a deal on the final table? I don't think I've ever seen a 75 size field tourney go to an actual heads-up live. Not that I've seen a lot of live tournies.
Nice Scott!
buy in was £20, and it was a turbo tournament with there being 30min levels before the break and then after the break there was 20 min levels. 5000 starting chips as well allowed for very little wiggle room. when we hit final table, me and the person who beat me had around 65000 chips, whilst the others had around 25000 chips.
Cheers and well done!
Hey Andrew. Love your vlogs. What app are you using for your gains and such? I'm going to start griding a bankroll for larger games and need a good app like that. Any info would be awesome.
QUESTION:
Andrew, what is your opinion of sunglasses at the poker table? Most pros on tv never wear them, is it looked down upon?
Hey Andrew you told me once you use premiere pro editing software but there seems to be a few different ones? Estimated cost around 100, 200? Or which version? thx Bo
Some great advice.Keep up the video ! Thanks
Andrew, great videos mate. Rather favourable. Kudos from Australia. Have you considered playing at live at the bike given you're originally from Los Angeles?
'Likes the video'
Okay time to watch now!!
Okay, did some thinking about your AA top-set hand: For one thing, when he raises you on the flop, the flat-call is BY FAR the best play. He most likely doesn't have ace in his hand. So, that leaves smaller sets and COMBO-DRAWS. Of those two options, it's most likely he has a combo-draw. At this point you KNOW his cards, but he isn't exactly sure what you have (he's most likely thinking you have AK.) In situations like that, it's best to KEEP your range advantage and smooth call, being as your hand will remain deceptively strong. So, why risk more money IN THE BLIND? Call his bet, see what comes, and act accordingly.
Last thing, on the turn the villain bets 330$, and in my opinion, that is one of the FEW times in which something close to a MIN-RAISE might have been appropriate, it COULD like look, "I know you're on the flush draw, and I'm not letting my AK get cracked for so cheap." He's most likely drawing dead, or possibly to a 1 outer (straight flush), BUT you'd be giving him SUCH a good price he CAN'T really fold there. Sure, if he makes a flush on the river, your min-raise on the turn will prevent you from extracting maximum value, but if the river blanks (which it will most likely), the hands over, so why NOT tax him BEFORE the river comes? I suppose to get the PERFECT answer in that situation would depend on stack-sizes, but I prefer a small raise on the turn.
Jetta hands are favourable man, keep up the good work and good luck at the tables
