Great question at 46 mins
Before watching this i only knew about Foxens poker results. Now i will want to watch him play and will be rooting for him. Your podcasts bring the fans closer to the players and that's great for poker
This is poker interview gold. Foxen seems very humble for the success he's had. I like how this interview gets you the insiders scoop.
*Parents: Gambling is bad and you are going to ruin your life*
See $8.5million..
*We always knew he was talented at it. We never stopped him from pursuing his passion*
Vitalstatistix Stats 😂😂
1. Foxen and other pro's aren't gambling. 2. Those 8,5 million $ can be seen as 8,5 million reasons why gambling is bad. Somebody's win = somebody's loss
The key is to differentiate between luck and skill when trying to talk to people not familiar with the game.
@@glennvds6349 the real degens are on amazon. but no one has issue with them. I have a buddy who's wife is hooked on amazon. like a slot machine. Stock market is far worse as well. no issue there. It is so odd people claim gambling is so bad...
@@joaopedroferreira1746 You're not really countering my statement by saying the above. OK, recreationals have fun which is a win. Fun != financial (so this says nothing about winning or losing financially). Yes if everybody plays GTO (in the long term) there should be no winners or losers. Irrelevant. And yes you are right it is not the poker pro's fault degens exist. By saying this you say there are losers (financially) :p. Poker = zero sum game. A win in the field = a loss somewhere else in the field.
Im sure i will watch this pod many times, it motivates me to keep grinding 24/7. You guys are legends.
Lol that ain't smart at all, nobody can play fully focused 24/7, if you want to play your best game you gotta take time off too for sure.
@@bekeneel lol i was hyped. You think i literaly meant 24/7?
Favourite podcast, will certainly add a lot of value to my outlook.
Thanks for coming together to make this!
This might be my favorite podcast you’ve ever done. Foxen is on that top level!
Alex your references towards believing in yourself when it comes to diverting from theory is awesome
Have only just got into the pod, I'm just so impressed by it. Joey you have a really rare talent as an interviewer where you can totally relax people and also have an instinct for the most pertinent topics to pursue, v. GTO. Really interesting watch always. Foxen also seems really sound - thoughtful and articulate. KEEP IT UP !
Thank you very much Issac
Joey you are just on fire with the podcasts lately, these are unbelievably good. I can't even keep up with the content!
Parents ( like most people ) are very results oriented. The usual result from gambling ( which poker kinda is ) is bankruptcy.
When you start being successful then they start understanding because of the results. Until then probably they won't support you.
What the Fox says: Poker is a game of decision making. If you're a superior decision maker than your opponent, you're likely gonna win!
Appreciate the response to the Doug Polk video, much respect
My favorite quote...1:10:15..."We've never been to this country, should we leave the casino? Well, there's this 1k, so..."
1 of the most underrated pods
Enjoyed the podcast -
You might want to consider posting a short clip of alex’s response around 2h17 of why poker stars is making mistake long term by structuring the games to be do hard to beat. Was very well articulated and would good for more people in the poker community to hear that.
Love the discussion around making poker more enjoyable instead of making the experience a grind at ~2:17:00
thanks Joe really liked this video Alex is talking so much sense here. when I talk like this to my poker playing mates most of them think I'm talking another language lol
Great podcast lately I can’t get enough of these man so good great guests great talks just awesome Papi. Definitely increasing my love for the game more then ever. Appreciate what you do keep it up. Thanks
Hands down best tournament player! Alex is a true crusher and very amazing person. 🙌
Foxen is a beast and a very intelligent person. Great to see into the mind of a player at his calibers
Brandon H he'll be broke soon.
@@martinsloan8170 when is soon
I don’t think so
Funny that you've mentioned Trueteller in the end, as a day before this podcast he started a blog on Russian poker forum GipsyTeam, answered quite a few questions, provided some interesting stories and even his latest Pokerstars graph. Having that in mind, I feel like Alex has a very good intuition!
Can you share TT's graph plz
I didn't know much about Alex before this interview, he was even a bit antipathetic, but after I saw this I 100% changed my mind, what a nice dude with amazing insights! Thx Joey!
Listening to foxen and landon tice talk about poker has done more to improve my game than hours of study and hundreds of play.
Joey is the best. Thank you !
so many people have gone from freerolls up to the big time. wish my game could get to a pro level one day perhaps
Great interview. This guy is the real deal. Work ethic, smart and humble - deserves the success he has had. I would like to hit him up for poker coaching
I love your content, but seems ridiculous not having time stamps posted.
Example....
Recent Doug Polk video with time stamps = multiple visits, multiple views.
Videos with no time stamp = might pick a random stop to quickly view, hopefully hit something good.
Regardless, keep up good work.
I am a one man operation over here brother, I will get better with them in the future.
@@joeingram1 The time stamps keep me hooked.
Great episode glad he didn't shy away from the three handed spot with AA vs JJ
What time was this?
Near the 3rd hour
Him and Krissy are right next to eachother in online rankings right now, she's 20th he's 21st, pretty nuts. She's also having her best year ever even though summer hasn't even happened yet. They must be good for eachother bc they have both been crushing harder than ever since they got together.
Finally a contestant that spouts intelligent strategy. Joeys content would be better if it mixed in more of this specific content.
Def one of the best guest so far
Stellar interview, as always.
I learned so much from this interview. Thank you both.
PAPI! Awesome Podcast! Keep it up, so many good guests lately I'm hooked and don't want to miss any of them! Hey NPR, You Mad Bro?
WE ARE COMING FOR YOU NPR. JON MUCH LOVE BROTHER, THANKS FOR ALL THE COMMENTS.
NPR..😂😂😂
this was a blessing!
50:30 was A+, Ive worked in marketing fwiw
Wicked smart dude, fascinating to listen to. Feel like I relate to him a lot. Not that I'm wicked smart, but we think a lot alike. His mention of the subconscious was on point. It's responsible for far more than people realize. Maybe he's found a way to tap into some of its potential, considering his success.
One of the best podcasts ever. Could've listened for 3 more hours. I'd really love to hear you speak to Kristen Bicknell aswell!
“You throw the fight chip in...” lol. Nice
sick pod Papi, u been killin it for real lately!! Thx & keep it up sir!
Joey this podcast is one of your best ever!
Thank you Austin :)
Life-changing joe. This guy has the greatest poker insight I have ever come across. Excellent interview style and questions too. He really laid it all out there. I was considering giving up after playing 5 years to just over break even GTO style. Not anymore! This video settled the debate.
Top £ winners seem to specialise in high rollers but it makes sense the variance in that is far lower then trying to beat 20k players in a 109 tournament
Listen to weaker players so you understand how to exploit them.
If you are a better player, the more decision points you can create, the more edge you'll have.
Dedication towards one goal is something that makes him feel good.
Good vid and commend you joey for so few ads
what a cool and humble dude Alex is! It's interesting to hear his stories from his childhood and the way describes his views of poker, I find them very similar to mine as I also had no-one around me to discuss poker while I started it off, so our conclusions are identical. Poker and Psychology do go together very well and since I create psychological theories and coach in my free time, Poker has become a playground for me and I would like to share that :P
:)
still the best joey!.....keep it up
Before this, all I knew about Foxen is that he has a killer bankroll, he goes deep in tournaments, and god damn that poker face can cut diamonds. I wouldn't want to sit at a table with him out of respect
Keep up the great work PAPI
Top notch!
Chi Joey. I'm from Chicago. Only 33 cashes? Thats a lots!
I'm Dominik's second subscriber :3
He's got 0 videos and no profile pic. Great content.
Joe, you do a great job with your interviews, this is one of my favorites here
1:38:55 Collusion Allegations and response to Doug Polk's video about the situation.
ty was looking for this info...
Joey how much do you get paid for wearing that Wynn Hat? hahahahahahahahlol
The fight chip 😂
"Folding is a weapon". Don't feel dumb Alex, I just came to this realization about myself. I'm not as far along in my poker journey as you are, and it's cool to hear that you've been through so many of the same steps as I have, and hopefully will have one day.
Great podcast papi, alot to take away and think about 👊🏻
Thank you papiii
I’m developing the most insane poker strategy everyone will see the greatest unleashed
Time stamps would be a lovely thing fuck
Your UFC job would be a color commentator like Goldberg used to be. Have an actual analyst to provide part of commentary and then you are the Hype man.
Theres actually alot of crossover in appeal for poker and MMA
They are both very skill based with a lot of luck involved, and alot of emotions are on the line.
It's high stakes emotions, and emotions are what people are paying for when they buy a fight. To be excited, upset angry happy or sad.
He makes football sound like sas selection course
Is it ok if I just push the like button lightly?
Pronouncing his name seems easy Joey. Foxen, love the LATB content. Solid brah. Im a linebacker turned high limit nl holdem player
GAY
Dude theres no way she plays AA like that, maybe she might occasionally but it still doesnt warrant the fold vs a player as capable as alex. im sorry no way
All those big publicly traded companies are short sighted because the executives running them live quarter to quarter
This "interviewer" talks way too much about himself and doesn't listen/ask questions enough. I'm sorry but 99% of the viewers are not interested in your personal experience or opinions about stuff, you brought the #1 ranked player on here for a reason.
We need another pod with Vanessa!!
this guy is great
poker genius, so good
I too was a master of the pee bottle. I lost my pee bottle card when I peed in a redbull can and spilt it in to my computer circa 2014 fifa world cup excitement.
it´s hard to listen to people who say "like" like 75% of the time
Great podcast. Still that JJ vs AA was soft playing collusion for sure. Vs anyone else all the money goes in 100%. 65% pot left on river and you bet 30% to make sure she has some chips left. But I understand and i don't judge I am sure you didn't want to be in that situation in the first place.
What does PO stand for?
PIO Solver
You can check it out on google, it's a training program.
The smartest poker player ever.
ok i'll subscribe
Joe are you sponsored by the Wynn, or do you just like that casino (re: your hat)? (fwiw Steve Wynn's not the greatest dude, as you're probably aware).
Do you really have to play millions of hands to become world class?
Joey 2020 #OOL #JackDaniels
Obviously your run the last year has been in the upper range of positive variance. Be real
Im buying this chair .
Which chair I can’t find it after listening to it
what did garrett have when foxes had KK and he folded river ?
AK
"hero fold".... lol Whatever, its done, but lets not pretend he didn't protect her.
Rousso over selbst always!
If Thad Castle were a scholar..
Cocaine running around my brain Joey gram
such a genius
Smart as a fckin whip.
I’ll beat Foxen I’ll beat them all !!
Player of the month, until he's not.
GTO isn't just GTO against GTO, if you know the opponents range you can apply GTO to that range. I guess you could call that exploitive but I think that is just stupid given that the scenarios are the same, i.e. player is playing X range, this the optimal response.
indeed what people call GTO is actually nash equilibrium which is GTO where all players have the freedom to adapt to eachother.
Great podcast. Alex, buy some furniture and get something on your walls. Seeing how Alan Boston (The Best of it) lived was depressing, don't be that guy.
He's at a friends place in Montreal
good interview but the point foxen is missing with stars is nobody cares why guys like him got into poker. stars should NOT be marketing to people who want to study pio and grind poker. they spent way too much time catering to winning players mass multitabling.
"stars should NOT be marketing to people who want to grind poker"
Huh?
And what's wrong with multitabling? I'm honestly interested to hear your elaboration but to me this just sounds like you're not a winning player and you're complaining.
In what minute he responds to doulg polk colussion ? dont have time watch all
Around 1:45:00
fucking genius. biggest idol, one day im gonna be just like him, mark my word
Classic
His voice trembles when he speaks, interesting
yeah i was going to comment on this, he seems fairly nervous tbh
Maybe from the concussions? A lot of football players seem to have that when they speak
I actually took the time to listen to his comments on the "collusion", and Alex came off super likable, but he is LYING in that part of the podcast. He could have made more money from his set of jacks vs. Kristen's AA, and he knows it. He's justifying a river decision, when he could have gotten it in against AA on the flop or turn and stacked her. Watch the hand, he's literally giving her looks to project how strong his hand was and trying to help her. His river sizing is absurd anyway, because even if she finds a fold because he warned her off, he wouldn't bet that size against anyone else in that spot, it's a three-bet pot where you flopped a set and the opponent has AA a lot, you must go for a lot of value there, unless it's your girlfriend then of course bet 1/6 pot.
if she folds to that river size vs him whats she going to do when he goes all in on river vs him ?
@@justinhart7172 How closely did you read my comment? You're not responding to anything I said. I called his river sizing absurd, because it was, find me someone else who bets that size in a similar spot. But on the river there are more hands in his range that beat her, and she had the benefit of all the strength he had shown and his body language. He acknowledged that his body language wasn't normal, and I have never been in a spot like that, so I accept that, but I think if he was trying to take all her chips there are clearly more aggressive lines that will likely get more money against aces there. But I accept the weirdness of the scenario and he seems like a nice guy. Also ICM doesn't exist post-flop once you flop top set on a dry board. It explains some of what she did, and his pre-flop just call, but there is no ICM fear with the nuts, he played passively.
@@cardboardu6019 ICM doesn't exist pre-flop? It exists for her when she has only 1 pair 40bb deep vs another 40bb stack and a 3rd guy is sitting there with 12bb. She has to be very careful and she was. Also, she knows Alex is not going to get in 40bb without a very strong hand. She lost the minimum in the hand because she's that good and she knows her opponent, not because they were colluding. I've played with her and she's absurdly good.
@@kcc1762 Bro can you read? Me: "ICM doesn't exist post-flop once you flop top set on a dry board" You: " ICM doesn't exist pre-flop?" So yea the opposite of what I said. I said ICM explains what she did throughout, and what he did pre flop. I stated the simple fact that ICM disappears for the person with the nuts post-flop, because they can't lose. It's a basic factual statement that runs counter to part of what he was saying. I think his response to Doug is right, and I imagine the solvers said what he says they said. If you respond to me to disagree with me thats totally cool, but make sure we disagree. Maybe he couldn't have gotten any more money, but with JJ against AA there.. it's a good spot to try, especially flop and turn, there is so little for AA to possibly lose to midway thru that hand. Still... Very possible he's not making more because she was the opponent.
@@cardboardu6019 Lol. post flop is what i meant to say. My point is he was never going to stack her because she is very ICM aware and had only 1 pair. Aces is an easy fold if he jams on the flop or turn. The way he played the hand was actually the best way to get max value. And she still managed to get away from a small bet on the river because she's so good.
its like you are solving for y, but x is not the true case
